    Fox Proframe helmet for DH?

    Depends on what you call hot I guess @rpet . I've recently moved somewhere an awful lot hotter and about a million times more humid, so these 'half assed' full faces do have some appeal. Still can't make up my mind about them though :(

    What trail bike tire casings don't suck?

    Just to undermine what I just said and make me feel inadequate and failing at life, SPCLZD went and made a batterer casing https://www.pinkbike.com/news/specializeds-new-blck-dmnd-tire-casing-ews-petzen-jamnica-2018.html ....and also now in 2.8” :p

    What trail bike tire casings don't suck?

    Specialized grid casing 'gripton' - butcher front and purgatory rear is a winner in my book.

    Bastard groupset: will it work?

    Thanks - I figured sram's rings would be thinner to accomodate for the 12spd, so maybe the thicker 11spd ring would make it sit a bit too snug?

    BOS suspension service?

    This was the exact same story in the UK as well. OP: Just take it into any suspension centre worth their salt, there's no magic fairy dust BOS wants you to believe, and anyone can service them.

    Musical chair game 2016 or Teh offseason prophecy

    Gwin on a YT is the most awkward match ever. All the YT guys are kinda wildchild looking badasses, then comes icecream and cookie loving Jesus bus Gwin rocking up to the party... "oh hai guyz"...everyone at the party awkwardly thinking of how to avoid conversation with him.

    Whistler GoPro Footage

    For chesty, I don;t actually like the gimbal at all - prefer it to have a bit of shake. For follow cam / handheld taking footage, then the stabilisation looks great. Context feels very lost with the gimbal.

    When do you get a new helmet?

    Same as a lot of folk on here, I only change it after a significant blow to the head . I was watching some old gopro footage of mine the other day, and realised I pretty much ALWAYS hit my head in some way when I fall. Sometimes I'd skid along my head, sometimes just lightly scrape, and other...

    Musical chair game 2016 or Teh offseason prophecy

    Athertons off GT - to a German brand of some description - Canyon I think. Surely Bruni will be pinched by the Syndicate, once Peaty finally pisses off (if not 2016, then 2017?).

    Paring down a bike stable

    @dtm1 The stock Monarch will shit the bed at that weight imo, so you'll need to upgrade to an X2 air, or ride a coil shock of some description. The Storia "enduro" coil shock on this, is incredibly good and well worth the money. Have ridden it extensively now, and it's ace. A mate of mine worked...

    New Enduro/DH light

    I wobble my Reign down everywhere, pedal back up again... rinse and repeat. It really is a lovely bike. ps: a bike is only "obsolete" if you allow it to be that in your head.
