Picked this up today - hopefully it'll keep me sane through this lockdown whilst I can't get out on the big bike.

First DJ bike I've had so probably got some learning to do - first step is to switch that brake over to the right (left) side and fit some proper pedals

Commencal Absolut

That's really nice, I know a guy locally that owns an Absolut and he's an absolute beast on his, I love how nice the standard colour scheme is on it too.

Remove air spring. Make some home made spacers that equal 40mm. Attach to air spring. Reinstall air spring.

Look up the manual online for further detail

Haven't touched the Pinkbike forums in years - long time no see. Im in the market for some new cranks for my NS majesty, and am pretty tired of busting internal euro bbs and running bmx cranks made of lead. Im running an NS 10t hub in the back, using a single speed chain. Are there any compatible (fitting 1/8" chain properly*) direct mount chainrings for mtb cranks?

Hi guys

Anyone used a mafia bomma 26 for street/Park riding?
Been looking for a cheap bike 100/200

Iv found a mafia bomma for 150 and it looks pretty much brand new
I was thinking about getting it and sticking some riser bars on it but not sure how it'd be?
Has anyone done it?
Wouldn't be heavy riding

I'm 6ft 3 and the bomma has a 22 inch tt

Isn't the Bomma not supposed to be one of those wheelie bikes? I'm pretty sure the blackjack is meant to be their DJ/Park bike, dunno if they're any good. You either hear really bad things, or the sponsored riders singing the praises of how good they are, so I don't know who's opinion to take seriously there haha.

Yeah. The Bomma is the wheelie bike version

Never ridden one though so can’t really comment on the quality
