The 190mm fork has six volume spacers (the max allowed), and with the rebound set two clicks from fully closed. The story's the same with the shock - max volume spacers, rebound set two click from closed, and 250 psi.

I like that he/they spent time on every piece of that bike. Most of the other bikes are frame paints and stock everything else.
Dudes an animal. Love the guy. Personally and as a fan of his riding and driving. Why would I hate on the dude for smashing rally cars? I own 2 WRX's right now. Dudes crushing it.
Was just stating the facts. People put a check next to his name because they're a fan.
Now, to put it straight and raw, his bike paint scheme is sh@t, let's face the reality. Even more when comparing with the badass paint jobs you see above...
Poor Semenuk.
basically the most popular rider wins regardless of the quality of their run or in this case bike.
An article full of stunningly painted bikes and semenuk wins with a plain white bike with some sharpie on it.
much like last yes event where the popular guy one by doing next to nothing on 90% of the mountain followed by some flippy twirly nonsence on a jump so perfactly groomed it may as well have been made out of plywood.
Fanboyism at it's best/worst.
I think it's easy to dismiss the riding these guys do with how often you see it but very few people think about the difficulty difference between doing a bunny hop barspin vs a barspin over a 30 foot gap. Semenuk has gotten popular for a reason
Note that there DH fork is not available in 29". Don't you think if it was all just rebranding stuff that the lowers would be exactly the same and they'd be available in 29"?
He's also not completely wrong with the Rheeder stuff. LOL!
- At this point we're just a couple bikes away from ditching the Red Bull moniker and just call it Commençal Rampage.
- I sincerely admire Tom Van Steenbergen for his inhuman riding skills and general badassery, but gosh only a mother could love those Hiper frames.
- From the amount of votes Semenuk's bike is getting, It seems the "looks like a Session" punch line will ride with us many more years.
Rampage Bikes...That Propain!
Semenuk's bike made me chuckle, I'm enjoying the silly "paint" job
Billy. Bob.
What is going on with the eyelet end of the shock body? Right at the end of the tube is a triangle that appears to be polished by wear. But what the hell from? And at BO? Bad alignment?
I've seen a single and a double crown fork.......
both bikes on his insta too.
If you don’t believe you can checkout my photo album ✌️
I wonder why Rheeder decided to go with a mech; perhaps it simply works just as well and was already fitted
3-5 photos and 1 sentence per bike if you are lucky. Surely with all of the people PB has onsite there they could get some actual details about the bikes.
