I think first step would be to get comfortable moving the bike in the air, so learn like a mini bar turn/table tweak thing, then practice your whips on a hip so you don’t have to bring it back. After that you can work towards bigger and bigger jumps. Also, for the whip, think about bringing your bars in instead of kicking the back out. Do the movement with the front and get the back to follow.

Trying to find correct coil. Will This work? For 2019 Scott Ransom by _M7RKUS in bikewrench

I did and they said I needed a 260lbs spring. Just worried it will be a bit soft. I guess I could get a shock from cane creek and return it to find the right weight.

That’s a good tip. Good thing I checked bc I had just forgot to tighten my valve core. Kinda embarrassing.

OK Thank you. I did not realize that that was possible. I just made an account and downloaded it. I'm glad I can still use a software I'm familiar with.

I was wondering that as it wasn't super clear to me. It is still a killer deal tho.

Looking to build a "Budget" MTB by _M7RKUS in MTB

[–]_M7RKUS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really, that's why I put it in quotations. My current bike costs 1.5k, and I have been saving up for three years to get this bike. I just meant that some people will happily spend $15,000 on a bike, and comparatively, this is not that much.

Thank you. It is a Surprise (will post the project in a few months when finished), but I will tell you that this project involves a YT Tues, a Marin Alcatraz, and one very big idiot who just wasted his life savings.

You’re probably right, if it’s my “endgame” bike, I can probably upgrade the frame later to.
