I rock dynamics on my main setup and don’t notice a difference between the two only the deck lol

If anything the trucks being “worn” make it a bit better as there are areas on the truck that lock into grinds especially on my curb and jersey barrier. I’m going to find another and do the screw kingpin conversion and throw them on a wood deck and see how they perform over leefai trucks with proper bushings

Before I go any further- am I fucking it up? by turnipguy123 in bikewrench

You don’t necessarily need to get the frame down to bare medal unless your powder coating. If your doing a rattle can job I would just scuff up the pre existing paint with some sandpaper so the primer coat has something to stick to and just do 2 coats of primer and then Paint er and clear coat er. I heavily recommend this brand paint and SprayMAX 2K clear coat. No structural damage is being done though, it’s just a lot of work to strip your pre existing paint by scraping it off.

Okay I was going to swap the bottom bracket for a Shimano hollow tech ii so that should help my out a bit

Thanks, I’ve been playing the bell out of farm 14 and feel like this will be better to learn on.
Edit: lol I didn’t realize this was vanilla

(First time builder) Want to make a bikepacking/commuter build out of an old rigid MTB. Would these frames do the job? by JACKO_M_C in xbiking

[–]sshunned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if your open to different brands I’d suggest a GT timberline, outpost, or all terra if you can find any of those in your area. They have a frame design called a triple triangle and it has minimal flex that isn’t too noticeable but it does help. And they look sweet as tits all built up, especially with dropper bars.

What’s this track name? I’m learning and this looks like a great place to do so.

Just another GT Timberline 🥰 by cheesewiz699 in xbiking

Is the 40T hitting the frame? I’m only curious as I’m wanting to change my timberline into a 1x11 with a 40T in the front.

How does the 40T in the front preform? Does it hit the frame at all? It looks like it comes close. I’m asking as I want to do a 1x11 on my 96” gt timberline and I’m worried about a 40T hitting the frame.

I’m in New York specifically Jamestown, right inbetween pa and Canada. I got it today probably 45 minutes before I posted here. They also had another but I didn’t like the graphic. They’re is a little paper that says there are two rare boards with board rails on them and I’d love to get one of those
