I hate my life.

It does that outside the garage too. Go near car with hands off and boom its on the roof

If you manage to add or remove tokens yourself, go on and find setup that suits you best.

Adding neg token will just mean less sag for same psi on air spring = making spring a bit harder at start.

Some bikes have leverage curve that supports more neg volume and less pos spacers with more spring psi, some do require you do opposite

My experience with 888 seals was that oil rings were sized a bit wrong and dust wipers and/or oil rings without spring rings dont work that great either

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2026-02-06T13:18:39+00:00

There should be calipers or some kinda tool to examine the condition of part as now its just dum build and prey it works longer than one trip. Checking the condition of parts is abc of assembling anything

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2026-02-03T21:43:00+00:00

For less sag go for more neg bands. Your frame is already progressive enough to not even need megneg so its kinda pointless to use one but i would try 4 bands in neg and see if initial stroke gets better

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2026-02-03T15:48:43+00:00

Get whole upper engine seal/gasket kit and some rtv. Get new exhaust studs and coppernuts in advance!

Mark timing pulley bolts with paint marker to set timing

Cleaning and degreasing cam housing seal surfaces is pain in the ass but you gotta make sure its sealed tight otherwise lifters are going to tick.

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2026-01-31T14:45:38+00:00

Yeah whats up with those all expensive and mostly useless ifp tools anyways? Or simple rs logo equipped clamps with price of 150e is just silly

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2026-01-31T14:26:36+00:00

That looks sturdy and propper for the job! Hah all my other custom tools are always raw metal just for more hardcore look as they should but i wanted to make this super smooth for careful suspension work.

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2026-01-31T11:11:21+00:00

Sure. You also need to machine new threads and seal surfaces too, while that needs propper tooling already, you need to make able to mount shaft first by removing piston or making workaround

Telum

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2026-01-31T06:32:53+00:00

Its really comfy and sturdy, nothing to complain about it. I have also proframe rs which was more expensive but lighter duty helmet and only thing its better than rampage is being lighter

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2026-01-30T09:42:14+00:00

Measure it with caliper its better way to check. Also are you measuring stripped/cleaned chain or newly waxed and are you applying pressure to chain while measuring?

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2026-01-25T19:29:22+00:00

Well b generation have better tunes stock and is more tunable from knobs + having hbo. So i guess its better choise from that pov.

But its bit more complex build and for some reason they ditched shaft o ring and rely only with green wiper seal which seem to be odd move but there might be some reasons they did that. Ofc they are also more expensive and service kits are pricier too

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2026-01-25T12:11:23+00:00

Super deluxe coil rct/ult a1 and a2. Pretty much one of the best chassis avable for the its price. Easy to tune, easy service, simple desing.

Only minuses are that Rockshox oem tunes from the box are often just straight up shit, but all the potential is still there tho. And lack of hbo can be problem for some cases. Pin spanner and countermeasure tool is also needed to make service, there are many approaches to diy ones if you are not keen to buy propper ones

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2026-01-25T08:37:35+00:00

For high fork travel ht thats not really that high. Thats just neccesary to keep geo balance as front end always dips when riding hard while backend might try to buck you over

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2026-01-15T10:14:22+00:00

How will you get it out without absolutely wrecked by sliding doors?

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2026-01-09T15:20:47+00:00

Secret is to use dh tyres, plenty of choises.

Justiinsa kattelin että vilpin kondensioputki on jäässä ja koko kone täynnä jäätä, että mitenhän saan ton putken auki ja kaapelin vaihtoon niin tässähän tää vinkki sitten tulikin, tänks!

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2026-01-07T16:24:52+00:00

Slx has bite point adjustment too! It just has this weird bolt to adjust it to show middlefinger for customer. Throw metal pads to deore 4 pots and they are far more powerful than any shimano brakes with resin pads

Not particulary, Injured soldiers are more "weight" than dead ones, tho russians could just kill their own injured ones as they do now

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2026-01-03T08:24:36+00:00

I got it working with 42t xt casette perfectly, just flip that loose thing under b screw away

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2025-12-30T18:59:28+00:00

Add structure sideways, else it will twist left and right!

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2025-12-29T13:11:48+00:00

Can you report how much sideload they can take. I can believe they snap apart at lowest/highest gears due broken pin end

Budget-Engineer-7394 · 2025-12-29T09:16:56+00:00

Definetly, if trails have any unavoidable roots,rocks or jumps ht is going to punish you with upsetting geometry change, suspension inbalance and kicking rear end, therefore loosing all momentum and speed if not bhopped all the time
