Review: Prime Rocket - Another Carbon Downhill Spaceship from Eastern Europe
@BarryWalstead For a 29er DH bike, I'd say I'm on the smaller size of riders choosing that setup. I should have written, "as a rider with shorter limbs (I'm all torso)".

@BarryWalstead: I only cut the lower portion, not the loop itself. The zip-ties hold the sliced section together.

Review: Rad Racks Rad4 Double-Folding Bike Rack
@CSharp: Have you checked the regulations for cargo overhang on drivesmartbc.ca? "A vehicle's load must not project more than 1m (3' 3") ahead of the front bumper, 1.85m (6') behind the back of the vehicle or 4.5m (14' 9") behind the center of the last axle." https://www.drivesmartbc.ca/miscellaneous/how-wide-how-long-how-high#:~:text=A%20vehicle's%20load%20must%20not,center%20of%20the%20last%20axle.

First Look: DT Swiss 1500 Classic Downhill Wheelset
@CSharp: Re: Champion vs Competition - that was a typo in the information provided. Indeed Competition is double butted and the spokes used.

Q-factor is a crank width measurement yes, but they run hand in hand. Call it pedal Q-factor or stance, the further from the cranks the pedals run, the more rocks you're likely to hit ha!

@whiteranger3: Agreed. I should have explained that clearer. My thoughts were to sit higher in the initial part of the travel due to the leverage curve and take advantage of the HBO at the snipped progression (which does get repositioned with a stroke change). Maybe with the 65mm stroke I'd back off the spring rate to a 475# as pointed out, but there's a reason why we're not all riding around on over-sprung 200mm travel trail bikes.
