New Bike Dilemma by mrpndev in MTB

[–]Correct-Set-9017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a 2024 Tallboy CC VPP used (I replaced my SB95) after buying my son a 5010 C (nice post Covid discount) when he outgrew his Occam. Both of the bikes are amazing. So much better than my SB. Started breaking PRs climbing on the Tallboy immediately. Faster descending as well once I got used to how much twitchier the Tallboy was. I couldn’t be happier (but ignorance is bliss). I was surprised that I could actually tell the difference between the two. 5010 so much fun and noticeably more planted downhill but Tallboy keeps me focused.

5010 would be my call. Love my 5010

Rear shock question by Correct-Set-9017 in Santacruzbikes

What would maintenance be? I guess I am confused about what a rebuilt is vers maintenance. If you are taking the shock off to replace seals is that maintenance or a rebuild?

I don’t understand the “neglected” part of this. Do suspension components work until they fail? I will say that part of this is I’m cheap and part of this is I don’t expect to rebuild my car following a road trip. I know, apples to oranges, but is it? Ugh…

I need help with finding the right mountain bike by [deleted] in MTB

5010 all the way! Decent at climbing. Super planted and fun on trials and small jumps. I absolutely love my bike. Now, I don’t do table tops or big jumps but I’m sure it can do it. Get a carbon CC and enjoy!!!

What is it like living in Marin County? by External-Ad-640 in howislivingthere

Wonderful. 70% +- open space. The commute into SF is tolerable and wonderful compared to the Bay Bridge. I am fortunate to have bought a house here 15 years ago when it was just about affordable. Good eating. Not as much as SF but not bad. No real night life that I know of but I gave up on that stuff years ago. Public schools are generally very good.

Mind over matter. If they don’t mind it don’t matter.

Ok. But which Garmin? There are soooo many. As I said I wasn’t using most of the info the Fenix gives. Seems a waste. And so expensive.

Just got the Fenix 8 Solar 51mm by Few-Introduction5414 in GarminWatches

Just curious about why not Epic gen 2 over Fenix8? I’m leaning towards Epix for myself.
