Dawn Patrol

 

Should have brought a bottle of coffee to the top. Notes for next time.

 

I should have a 210mm (adjustable in 10mm increments to 190) Oneup dropper in 31.6, super low use. Had to swap over since the new frame was 30.9

Unless you two are running the same headset, you'll need to swap over your crown race. Just take the two forks over to a LBS and have them do it. It takes under 2 minutes.

This is the crown race. Looks like a washer that sits on top of the crown.

 

138

 

is it not possible to do myself, need a LBS?

 

If your race is loose enough, you can maybe get it off yourself, but often they are ON THERE. And you dont want to pry with a screw driver as youll make a burr and chew your bearings up.

 

ok good to know, thanks. I don't mind taking it to the LBS, just didn't know.

 

Of course the race puller / setter tool is one of those absurd "250 buck only a bike shop would have" kinda tools.

 

Temporary setup until bed rail mounts

 

I'm actually looking to up my travel from 170 to 210. Don't wanna jump in front of @bickz if he's interested, but...let me know!

 

If you are ever in Minnesota I have one, I have pretty much every bike tool.
Anytime something breaks on one of my bikes, I buy the tool I need to fix it. I am very close to having a full shop at my house lol.

 

Reminder and note to self...it's dry and dusty out there. totally ate it while landing a jump awkwardly and got my right side all scratched up. bike's fine and I mostly am as well so there's that.

 

Cool, are you from Cleveland? I see your Ray’s sticker. Our local indoor park is the “-Wheel Mill”

 

Yup. I murdered myself on Limelight a few weeks ago. Same thing. Hit the kitty litter and down I went.

 

Mine was on the last bit of Levitate. That first jump on the new section at the end. Either the wind caught me or I landed awkwardly...probably both. and totally went down. Good ringer. No broken bones so...more riding! hahaha.

 

I've had both, as well as the Yakima. RF hands down winner.

Go ahead. That is too much travel for me!

 

From what I’ve read from reviews everywhere the straps and Velcro fail on the Yakima? Looks like RF it is..

 

Ontario, Canada. I go to Ray's every other year
