    I could not find a Salsa Timberjack anywhere so I went to a shop today and bought a Specialized Fuze Sport! Running 75.5+ tubeless, this is a massive change from the last mtb i owned a few years ago!

    I just need a fork mount for that rack and I'll be set. It has a solid axle and the shop didnt have the adaptor I needed.

    It liked to slide around on the rack. 2 on the bars, 1 on the rear tire and it was rolling back and forth about 6 inches when id accelerate/brake. So i threw another one on there lol

    Yeah.
    I had one while I was waiting to see what Trek was going to do for a FS + bike. It was a great bike, and I think the Specialized dropper post is the best I have used. My main complaint was the narrow rims they use, they need to step up to 40mm rims so you can run lower pressures without the tire rolling over. Rear suspension was a little too linear for my liking, but it was very smooth and plush. Both issues could be remedied somewhat by a lighter rider, I am 200 lbs.

    I got mine as a used rental from a local shop and was able to sell it for about what I paid for it. Check around at your local Specialized dealers.

    Those with bed racks, RTT's or bed covers, how do you carry your bikes?

    My bikes got 27.5+ tires and 15x110mm thru-axle, because of the disk brakes I'd rather leave the wheels on when i put it on the rack.

    Yeah.
    A hitch tray rack like above, the Thule T2, or the Kuat (I have a Kuat). OneUp is awesome but make sure it will work with your tire width.

    Sorry, not showing off, just asking a question. My calipers, pistons, and pads are aligned correctly, but every time I reinstall either wheel, I have to play around with applying different clamping force before my brake rotor is in the middle of the pads (I'm going by visuals). Has anyone used a product like this: https://www.1upusa.com/product-quicknutblack.html to get the same clamping force every time you reinstall wheels?

    I'm on a Specialized Rockhopper btw. I love the thing, had it about 6 years now.
