I have the Wolftooth light action remote and love it. The one up looks and feels pretty similar but it wasn't out yet when I bought mine. I'm a big fan of the one up stuff I've tried. The PNW remote is another one that I checked out and it seems pretty good as well, however, it seems never be in stock and is $30 CAD more. They've come a long way from the funky Reverb plunger and the ball slicing Race Face remotes that I had before.


Yeah I want to check out a PNW.

I pedaled up to the snow, (which isn't very far), and it was snowing. It looks like we are getting Junuary again this year.
OneUp remote kicks ass on the Fox version. Bearing action, bigger hardware and better position for hand and knee. Snow hike a bike has further chopped up my shins.

I have two OneUp droppers with stock remotes. They work great but are not pretty looking if that matters.

How’d you get the long weekend off???

If it keeps the fires away I’m ok with some mixed weather... it’s May and Alberta is already on fire! WTF?!?!?

I have a transx dropper with the race face lever and quite like the combo really light action and good construction. It was a left over from my race face dropper so bonus usage.

Thanks... He should be ok. Got himself some sort of bacterial infection... the only stool sample I could get was with a butter knife off some grass (not a lot) .... so they had to send off to lab to see if it had eggs or was multiplying. But for now, he got an appetite shot, diarrhea stoppy goo and antibiotics... he hasn't blown a gasket for a few hours now. But he is one worn out pooch.

Mt7 was a good ride this weekend. Wife and I dropped in Saturday in the rain... poor girl walked a bit. I however got spit of trail in the steeps into a log and got launched OTb down far enough to bruise my face with my helmet .
Sunday we went up and rode a bit of the moonraker trails . Was a good pedal.
Then went back on 7 In afternoon and had some pinned killer laps.
Head to coast late June then back through the star for fri-sat and maybe Sunday of July long weekend. Anyone gona be there those dates let me know

We’ll be at silly star for the Canuck long weekend... not going to be able to get there too early on the Friday though so hopefully traffic isn’t total chaos and hopefully there’s some sites left.

Walking on 7 is totally legitimate... not everyone looks sexy with a face bruise!

Catching up been out camping. Man it was cold.
Sterling, pumpkin is good for dog diarira too.
Lever, holy shit that's nasty.
James, glad your ok. Otb is not a fun kinda crash.
Jake, I saw the mystic truck rolling into town on Friday, Very nice. Sounds like it was a mud fest at Pano.
