I just wish Funn kept the Big Foot Evo pedals in their lineup - cos they're awesome.

The silence is deafening.

@EdSawyer: Yeah well, they also specced their bikes with Ohlins previously and had a recall soooo I'll take anything that comes specced on any bike with a grain of salt. Don't get me wrong, I love the Stumpjumper, so much so that I keep tabs on parts that my buddies uses on their bikes. So I'm well aware of the issues from the new bikes from 2019 til now. The linkage updates, with the current ones that are beefed up etc, one of my bud has a ccdb coil on his and it broke within a month with oil leaking, they updated the shaft for him that lasted a few months before it failed again, they updated that one for him as well. And I love canecreek stuff as well, I have an inline and a ccdb air installed on 2 of my bikes. So I have nothing against either brands. I'm just calling it as I see it. I also have a 2022 stumpy evo Ltd at home and that's specced with the mrp hazard, so far so good. If it breaks, I'll update.

The coil version isn't suitable with the stumpjumper. The shaft is simply too thin for it. Even with the update. That said, the same goes for fox and rs coil shock. You'd have to go to mrp hazard or some other shock with a similar or close to the shaft diameter. The ccdb air will work fine.

Sigh, still no rx inserts

Been in a few situation where the drivers, for whatever reason, perhaps got diddled by a randy cyclist when they were young, purposely Edge me to the side of the road. Also with trucks carrying gravel and sand, careless bus drivers. All these made me swore off road cycling. Love the speed and the wind but it ain't worth it.

No bottle mount, no deal.

@fabwizard: Surprisingly no, I mean even without the speakers we're not that quiet but they tend to move away when there's some loud techno stuff.

I wouldn't put the guy with the Bluetooth speaker down. Where I am right now, they use that to prewarn hikers that like to stray into the mtbiking trail and who usually tend to stay in the blindspots. Prewarn slow bikers or motivate those of us who are exhausted, most of the time we don't like being pass by a guy with a Bluetooth speaker. Also to scare off wild boars, they're the obvious danger over here, we've had bikers blindsided by them, etc.

@tacklingdummy: Naaah, downcountry is already the enduro to all-mountain bikes. And enduro already stuck.
