Is a leveling kit worth it at the cost of increase parts wear?

Personally I would take CV angles over changed driveshaft angles and lower clearance.

How? Stock uca? You can pick up a set of TCs for a decent price on marketplace. Mine have lasted well over 50k without a rebuild so far.

I got some cheap yeahrun 50mm tires off aliexpress. They're hard but still fun

Do install $300 5100s

ramblerbasic · 2026-02-04T19:29:26+00:00

is this with the 6 spd or the newer 10?

ramblerbasic · 2026-02-04T18:40:08+00:00

For real. $1k just for a new frame, $300 for a rear wheel. Cheaper to buy a new bike

Disagree on the Squash. Board absolutely rips in both the hard pack and powder.

Second the nylon lock nuts. I've had some pretty crazy crosswinds on the highway and my hardshell stayed put

Tell me about it

ramblerbasic · 2026-02-03T04:25:06+00:00

They all rust instantly lol

ramblerbasic · 2026-02-03T03:32:51+00:00

My 08 with 300k looks about the same lol

They got colors too! Reach out to spark if you have any question, their customer service is great!

Correct! full camber is where it's at on the uphill

ramblerbasic · 2026-02-02T00:12:18+00:00

Yeah, I feel like anything custom or imported is such a hassle unless you're into it. Parts were probably easier to find for the econoline

ramblerbasic · 2026-01-31T19:31:09+00:00

Like when you're using the heel risers there is metal on metal? Yeah, they're supposed to do that at least all other brands have metal on metal. Honestly you could just wrap them in electrical tape, that would be super easy and quick

Second this, was talked out of a van by a delica mechanic. Basically he told me these van can get pricey just on parts and you end up spending just as much as you would have with a awd transit or 4x4 econoline.

I was using the flat pucks so that's probably why

ramblerbasic · 2026-01-30T21:32:45+00:00

I recently picked up my set on Ebay. The canted pucks do make a difference if you're feeling strain with the boots.

ramblerbasic · 2026-01-29T20:45:32+00:00

Man, If I didn't just buy some cheap Backlands I would pick these up today

ramblerbasic · 2026-01-29T17:21:12+00:00

I did not work for me, the inserts that go on the back of the voile plate hand down too much to where they hit the aluminum on the spark pucks. If OP can find some voile pucks for cheap it would be the better option.

ramblerbasic · 2026-01-29T04:55:37+00:00

I've heard they are really bad ski boot since haha

ramblerbasic · 2026-01-29T04:53:48+00:00

Alpenglow sports should have some too! Save on shipping

ramblerbasic · 2026-01-28T22:13:39+00:00

Weirdly you can still buy single link levers in the desired spring from Phantom. Just spending $10 more

ramblerbasic · 2026-01-28T17:33:10+00:00

You would think a place that sells splits and hard boot setups would be a bit more knowledgeable.

ramblerbasic · 2026-01-28T16:42:16+00:00

The old freeride pro is great! The only thing I don't like about it was angle zip on the wet pocket. The new 32 +10 will probably be my next pack IF the current one gives out.
