    Intend Edge fork, much less absurd

    How is the stiffness on techy slow uphill? Like up a rock garden so to say. That's where I felt the most the lack of stiffness on the only inverted fork I tried. It was so bad that it threw me out of balance a few time :eek: the fork was not from Intend but from an obscure french company

    Is HR monitoring during the race a desperate attempt to attract roadies? The world we live in is already filled with useless and shitty information to make people feel in control of their life and surroundings...

    No. Maybe it's time for a rebuild? You can remove the lever blade without needing to bleed the system

    I have some from Avid, the package is so big it will last me 1000 years if not more. Thanks, I went for the same oil I use on my chain. By the way, the ball joint pointed by the arrow is also outside the hydraulic system :nerd:

    I need some advice. I just rebuild my Dominion levers, the stroke was really long and I also experienced wandering bite point where the stroke could suddenly get shorter on the front brake. I wonder what kind kind of grease or oil you would use on the ball joint and on the pivot marked on the...

    @bullcrew Did you use alloy wheels on all 3? Or was it carbon on the slash and alloy on the rest?

    Fort William 2024 Race

    There a recent interview of Bruni, in French of course, but maybe you can work out something decent with the subtitles? He says that he doesn't see himself doing a long career like Minnaar does. He has pretty much won already everything that could be won. Fort Williams was still on his bucket...

    Enduro-mtb used Sinter's lab to test the brakes. They are new to me too. Why don't you give their green pads a try and tell us more about them! :brows: Sinter mentions the softness of the compound and skips mentioning long pad life...

    I have had 2 Devinci, both new, and I recently got a second hand SC. Devinci has been my main bike for the last 6 years. Devinci doesn't offer bearing replacement but they use the same size throughout the linkage which is nice. Paint has held pretty well. I don't use frame wrap First...

    Novyparts publishing the dimensions of the moving seals for their Novya rear coil shock. In french, I know, but who is serious about downhill and doesn't speak French? :boss: Why do they publish these dimensions? Because they think that think that every customer should be able to service its...

    Some more info about EXT Storia shocks: the scraper seal used is a Trelleborg Zurcon DA22 14x20x4.7 I didn't manage to remove the oil seal to measure it... I didn't wanted to damage it. It seems to be made of a harder material than the usual NBR70. If someone has info about it, I would be...
