Bike vs Bike: Connor Fearon's 2007 Kona Stab Deluxe vs 2020 Operator
@WRCDH: nice info but I’ve wasted a lot of time arguing over the years on here about tires and some people just don’t understand or want to understand that different tires and especially pressures slow you down it always boils down to my setup is perfect and wouldn’t be any faster with higher pressure or x tire. It’s really silly and unscientific A for effort maybe you can get through.

Wolf Tooth Components Release CAMO BashSpider
@MAtechshit: your bb shell is attached to your frame how would that not Put a huge amount of force on as you said your plastic frame. Also I thought carbon was stronger whatever. Either you crack off your little iscg mounts or you crack your bb shell not sure what the difference is. Maybe you only break your guide or tabs instead of your frame. Maybe you break your cranks bb and bb shell.

@emptybe-er: I appreciate the argument good option if you can get ahold of a 36 for a decent price but otherwise trying to upgrade a crap fork from a Pinkbike deal or something is pretty pricey especially for a grom or newbie or anyone who can't afford the around 300$ Price tag of a new fork. And used dj forks are harder and harder to find.

@emptybe-er: I'm looking at one of those old forks now I've got 3 or so. Surprisingly not as heavy as people make them out to be 6 pounds an some change very smooth very strong easily to swap stuff out. What's weird is in seventeen years we lost two pounds and gained a bit of adjustment/smoothness that most people don't even use. Also if you set one up right you only need one spring and air pressure so that drops the weight even closer to 6 lbs I'm not denying that two pounds doesn't matter its huge but I was a bit disappointed when I swapped out an old dj2 for a new dj1 a few years ago when they went on sale on their website and only lost one pound off my bike. When the thing showed up I saw right away that it was basically an 05 dj1 with some weight shaved after riding it a few weeks I realized it's exactly what it needs to be smooth strong durable. I wish it were lighter but that's my only complaint I just didn't find a pound to be worth double the cost.

@emptybe-er: 15? I know your being hyperbolic but It's around a pound. And I'm not sure it's worth the 750$ price tag also most of the dj forks I run into are setup so stiff by the rider that I wouldn't put much weight behind their opinions on performance I.E what would someone know about the performance of a fork if all they do is over pump it with air and slow the rebound down. A dj fork is pretty simple. smooth strong at the lowest weight possible and I give you that pound means a lot but I feel people over hype stuff sometimes.

@WAKIdesigns: I had the purple 2010 and It was awesome the 06 dj2 I had was pretty decent heavy but smooth now I've also got a newer dj1 and besides the weight it feels fine what's your problem with them. The dj3 shouldn't even be in the comparison because nobody elts makes a third grade fork.

Starling Cycles' New Twist Has 160mm of Travel and Mixed Wheel Sizes
@artistformlyknowasdan: you mean like most 29ers and 27.5 it's almost like you could make a wicked bike with modern geometry that's lighter and more maneuverable with smaller wheels.
