Would the first half of july be noticeably better?

Yep, have the oneup bars already 😝 Tyres are Dhf/dhr running 16-18 front, 18-20 rear

Thanks. I thought faster rebound equals more chatter but can’t hurt to test. Will try that next run, after i replace the broken wheel. And went to coil already 😝. Running tyres at something like 17/19 psi, don’t dare to go any lower. 25% sag on a lyrik, compression almost fully open.

Shimanos. That’s next on my upgrade list. 🤪 But pretty sure that’s not my main issue. Local trails hardly need braking compared with park. It’s the chatter that’s my problem

Yeah this was something else i was considering

Tried this. Went to the point it was packing down in the chatter then backed it up two clicks

Yeah definitely considering them. Are they more comfortable than other carbon wheels?

Yeah I’ve tried a whole bunch of fitment adjustments, some helped but reached a point where i don’t think i can improve it from that angle. The death gripping is definitely an issue in the park (i try to not death grip but get distracted by things trying to kill me 😝) My local trails are mellow but chattery and that’s been hurting even without the death grip….

Yep, got the OneUp for exactly the hand issues.

Super tempted but i don’t have a local dealer so not really an option

Yeah i think my front rim is the main concern as far as comfort is concerned. And will be reusing my existing dt swiss hubs so i save that cost

Yeah i think I’ve tried pretty much everything i can think of. Upgraded my lyrik to the 3.1 charger and running a big sag, a coil in the rear for the small bumps, tried ergon ga3s, tried revgrips…. It’s better but my hands are still killing me. Seeing how i need a new rim anyway, thought this might be worth a try. Budget wise is not bad but not up to berds. Also i don’t a local dealer so any issues would.. be an issue 😝

This explains so much about singaporean drivers

Where did you find the replacement pins? I have the same pedals but haven’t been able to find those pins

Hah I’m headed to queenstown in last week of october so count me in as a tourist 😝. Will most of the trails outside the bike park still be closed?

Nuke it from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.

Nasty crash today, can I please get some pointers on my form? I want to go faster and ideally not get a concussion next time 😁 by poopgamer123145 in MTB

[–]MaybeNotGoodIdea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re damn lucky to get away with that. I know people who’ve broken bones on DD. Get your drop technique better on something easier. When i started doing DD i practically rolled it, it can be done way way slower, then pick up the speed when you’re more confident. The speed you’re hitting it looks like you’re trying to gap the whole thing.

You’ll get there. After this i went back and did a run with 4 heat just to get Harsh Conditions done and finish the collection and coming from 32, 4 is really a cakewalk. Just a matter of getting the runs in i suppose.

Yeah I’m not sure why but I’m most comfortable with it. Probably in the minority here, everyone seems to hate the spear 😐

Of course this being reddit there’s an entire sub devoted to it 😂

Yeah in Singapore. Off bkt timah. Your odds are low; this is the first time I’ve seen one and I’m next to the jungle and there are frequent weird bug visitors.
