All Things Bikes and Tacos! (...and every vehicle imaginable)

Insert SRAM, and I’d have to agree

 

REEEEE

I'm a sram fanboy - their brakes can piss off though. Love the feel of gx and above.

 

Hahaha im the same. I like sram eagle a lot. Super crispy smooth shifting. you cant even feel it shift if you catch it in your pedal stroke right, even on climbs. That being said, I have xx1, but my NX eagle was the same way. The only problem I had with NX is the cassette wasnt gold.


but yeah fuck sram brakes. Maguras for me

 

me and @DJ_Taco11 at rocky hill ranch last weekend in smithville, tx. first, wheelin the tacos in bastrop, then ripin up the trails in the mtbs... this was a good day!

 

Just saw YT featured your hoop tie on their Insta. Nice! https://www.instagram.com/p/B3NV3Qhnbod/?igshid=14jlse1u8x403

 

did you get the blazing blue taco or the giant first? very matchy matchy

 

New tire day, ended up finding the dhf plus online

 

New tire day twins! Boutta go spin the sealant around and see if my dog is mtb compatible.

 

Draco's a stud! Totally a natural trail dog! Did great on a test lap around the block!

Edit: came inside, drank some water, total car crash. 0% battery remaining!

 

Same tires too! I’d be done already but I put the tire on backwards...idk if it really matters but it would annoy me haha

 

Whoa hell yeah! I’m famous!

 

I remember hearing people would swap DHFs around for better breaking performance.

 

Interesting, eh I flipped it already, we will see. These are fat AF though

 

Had a great ride at Santiago Oaks SoCal

You guys that have "Rockymounts" on your trucks, do you take them off for the winter? Utah uses rock salt on the roads here and I don't know if it'll ruin the thru-axle piece.

 

what model Rocky Mounts are those? I read that you had to flip the bulk head around in order to make them fit.

 

I left something like it, a Thule, on my truck in Utah over the winter and the bolts seized. I wouldn't risk it unless you're using it regularly.

 

They're Rockymounts "Hotrods".

 

I'll just pull them off until spring then. Thanks!

 

Those RockyMounts are awesome! I normally run one on the header rail when I don't have a rack and tent on. With the rack, I use one mounted on an 8020 rail in the bed. It's hard to see the bike in this pic, but it's tucked in on the left side of the bed:
