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

I have a regular ole DPS air shock on the back of it. Im unfamiliar with the Push 11-6. It would be going on to a YT Jeffsy.

 

Anyone need a good strong cheap crankset? Selling my dub NX eagle crank set with 34 tooth x sync chain ring. Only about 5 or 6 months old. Great condition. Bottom bracket not included.


$80

 

A 42 chainring? Your the man

 

Oh nooooo! Typo! Hahaha 34 tooth chain ring! Hahahahha

 

Springs aren't expensive, and you'll probably want to try a few anyways.

I'd go for this though... https://www.jensonusa.com/Dvo-Jade-...UwtzZNC7ptILz576Bj9o4tJOn8Ekf3CcaAu9nEALw_wcB

 

Ended up buying a DHX2 with a 550 lb spring. According to the calculator, it is slightly too much but I figured it was a good starting point, and since I am using it for trail riding instead of DH, it might help pedaling and since I increased my travel in the front by 10mm I should have a little more weight on the rear shock. (this is all my armchair guessing stuff lol)

 

My Bronson from a trail ride near Breckenridge, Co not too long ago.

 

In case any of you heathens haven't seen this yet. Mind blowing.

That shits fake bro. No way a human can do that. haha such an insane edit

 

What in the fuck did i just watch? Its like Bike Parkour lol. Going up the escalator was insane!

 

Standard trials stuff, but still crazy the technique they do and how well it works.

 

His Sick! Series Youtube episodes are legit too. Him and Elias Schwaerzler just dickin around in the streets of Austria most of the time. Fabio being able to stand on his handlebars for hundreds of yards at a time is a skill that is ridiculous.

 

Ha, that one was crazy, and prob the only one that I thought "I may actually be able to do that one"

I was riding down the road letting the sealant slosh around in my tires yesterday after watching this video and stood on my top tube and thought about what it would be like to even attempt to stand on the bars.... i sat right back down and went inside. Shits crazy

Absolutely love this video. Carbon wheels are the last thing I need for my Jeffsy build that isnt purely cosmetic gold shit, and i fear that I probably wont ever get them because they are so damn expensive. i9 or SC carbon wheelset with i9 hydra hubs are all like $1,200-$1,500. I paid $2400 for my aluminum Jeffsy new lol. I mean I built it into a pro race aluminum jeffsy because YT doesnt offer one... but still.

 

I am want to sell my Trek X Caliber 8 Hardtail and get a Full Suspension after getting to test out my friends bike that he does Enduro racing with...

Change my mind hahahaha

 

Idk what your riding is like but don’t get an enduro bike. Probably don’t need it in Texas. Get a short-mid travel bike, trek fuel ex, ibis ripley, transition smuggler, Kona process 134, etc. so many options to choose from.

Or get a 27.5 plus or 29 plus hardtail Trek stache or Kona honzo come to mind. I love my stache.

 

He rides all in Texas/Arkansas mainly, but his bike it built for that type of riding.

I like mine, but would love the extra comfort of a full suspension setup honestly.

I don't need one... I am just wanting one.

 

+1

A true Enduro rig is gonna be overkill. I didn’t realize pushing around 180-160mm of travel wasn’t fun until I got my Yeti Hundo. It’s the perfect trail rig. It doesn’t like rock gardens if you’re on the brakes... but there is an easy solution for that.
