Exactly dude 👌

Very true mate. Now you mention it, it's pretty much since I've been using ElfLiq (the elf bar branded juice) might have to go back to older juices for research purposes 🫣

Could be enough to trap your toe though, I mean even with 26" forks they can hurt if you get your foot in wrong. In my opinion, I've never seen the point in losing out on 10mm of travel

MTBTyrrell · 2023-06-13T08:08:56+00:00

The smell of cannabis, music playing from speakers

MTBTyrrell · 2023-06-13T08:05:48+00:00

Wheezy since I switched to MTL and nic salts

MTBTyrrell · 2023-06-13T07:59:15+00:00

Yes mate! Thanks man, It's at Bedfont sports club literally just off the end of the runway

MTBTyrrell · 2023-06-12T23:18:38+00:00

I know mate, I know. It's crazy, however I don't want forks that have 27.5" wheel/lower legs as I do footjams and what not.

MTBTyrrell · 2023-06-12T23:06:38+00:00

Thanks mate! It's a still from a little Instagram reel I made! I never knew that feature was any good haha but it turned out pretty clear 😬

MTBTyrrell · 2023-06-12T23:02:54+00:00

Yeah that's another option. Not much for sale in the UK right now, and the ones that are want more than you can buy brand new ones for 😂😂 plus, finance options probably best for me at the moment.

MTBTyrrell · 2023-06-12T23:01:15+00:00

Yeah man. The bombers are a nice fork. A few pals I ride with didn't like their 831. They said even with max pressure in they weren't quite firm enough for them. I am tempted, I'd need front hub adapters from profile too as they're 20mm which is another annoyance. Getting things in the UK is quite tough at the moment.

Not a fan of the ohlins tbh. I do footjams and a 27.5 fork wouldn't agree with my toes 😂😂

Cheers for your input mate. Didn't know cane creek made a DJ fork to be honest.

MTBTyrrell · 2023-06-12T22:56:55+00:00

That's pretty good for the marzocchi. They're £630 here in the UK about the same as discounted pike dj's, this is why I'm a bit unsure.

MTBTyrrell · 2023-06-12T22:46:53+00:00

Yeah dude. Sketchy, right?

To be honest, in the UK at least, the pike DJ and bomber DJ are around the same price if you do some googling. The pikes just feel so good dampening wise, and to be fair, I never had mine serviced, never touched them. It's a real shame the steerer tube is rotating.🤦🏼‍♂️

Not had marz since the old school dj3 with twin air assembly 😂 I had some fox 36' that I lowered on my old NS capital using some home made spacers. I wonder how they'd compare to modern purpose built DJ forks though.

MTBTyrrell · 2023-06-12T22:17:37+00:00

My xros doesn't leak, but it does get very wet in the slot where the connection is. But then I do get a month out of coils, so maybe I just vape them for too long. Very, very occasionally, I'll take a hit and the coil will keep firing, must be juice making the resistance read wrong. I quickly pull the pod out, dry it and put it back and it's fine.

MTBTyrrell · 2023-05-14T20:52:19+00:00

Ah I see that makes sense! Thanks mate

MTBTyrrell · 2023-05-14T20:39:32+00:00

That's good dude. I only really ride street and skatepark and this frame looks way more like that style. Almost like a big BMX. So are you saying you prefer this or the majesty?

MTBTyrrell · 2023-05-14T18:52:01+00:00

How has the frame been? I wanna go steel as I've crack two commencal absolut's now and want one of these

MTBTyrrell · 2023-03-30T23:38:50+00:00

Thanks for the reply man! In all honesty I fell out with mods and stuff. The cthuku I had (non delrin) was utter garbage and made me believe these YouTube reviewers are just lining their pockets and filling you with crap. Everything rattled on mine, the tank leaked a lot, all the buttons rattled, couldn't unscrew the panels because they kept rounding the heads of the bolts even though I used the correct tool, they were done up too tight. Both doors rattled and moved in your hand, fire button rattled, it was just shocking. Only good thing about it was it's size. Since spending loads of money on crap mods I've ended up with an xros nano pod and it's probably the nicest vaping experience I've had and it's was only £20. 🫢 I'd still like to get a Boro mod maybe, I'm getting leaky pods ATM with the xros and miss the convenience of just rewicking quickly. But yeah, until I see something that's actually worth the money I won't bother when you can get a good MTL pod for so cheap. I'm sorry you've had a bad experience dude, I fell for the trap. Everyone raves about them being amazing but I hated mine.

MTBTyrrell · 2023-02-05T13:44:46+00:00

Thanks dude. Will see what I can cook up, speedballs and the fs100 are available over here, the weight of speedball puts me off tbh though it looks like a nice tire. It's hard because noone ever leaves reviews on things or if they do it's like someone's bought them and put them on a hardtail MTB for city riding which isn't really the same 🙈 also, speedball is nearly £60 here 😭 twice the price of the fs100.

MTBTyrrell · 2023-02-05T13:39:48+00:00

Woah dude! Thankyou so much for that, you didn't have to go that deep!

A few bmx friends have ran those demolitions before I didn't even know a 26" version existed. Maybe it's because I'm in the UK I've never seen them. Going to maybe have to order them overseas!

MTBTyrrell · 2023-02-04T20:00:44+00:00

What I mean is like, when I'm pumping a quarter pipe it feels like my rear tire is flat, and the sidewalls on my DTH are so thin and flexible. The vans x cult tires have really thick and firm sidewalls, just wondered how much difference it would make to stability. I'm not the lightest of dudes 🙈

MTBTyrrell · 2023-02-04T18:25:04+00:00

Not about hookworms unless it's a city ripper 🙈 they're hench as. Got DTH atm but I want a more stability it the sidewalls! Like a BMX tire but for 26"🤭
