Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

It is a good one!

For loose over hard pack the Assegai works great for sure 😂💯 Thanks for watching!

Yep! The HR3 is far more square and stable than the DHR as a front tire. Night and day difference.

😂🤘

Just keep shredding and putting yourself out there 💯

The new High Roller definitely offers that greater feeling of definition you are looking for 💯 Thanks for watching!

Hope that tire setup treats you well 🤘 For brakes on the Tempo: I am using Shimano XT 4 piston brakes with metal pads and 180mm rotors front and rear. They work very well ✌Thanks for watching!

That would be pretty counter intuitive in my opinion, but I can see situations where High Roller 3 front and rear would work awesome, particularly in very loose/wet conditions.

The Tempo rips the bike park! Carries such good speed and with good line choice can handle everything Trestle has to offer. For suspension, I have a bomber air with 180 PSI and a 0.5 spacer, and a Z1 with 2 spacers and 76 PSI. At 175 pounds that is not super stiff by any means, but ramps up enough that I hardly bottom out. I will break down more specifics in my Tempo bike check which will be dropping soon!

2:53 💯

Glad you've found a setup that works well for you 🤘 Would definitely recommend checking out the new High Roller 🤙

Definitely worth trying out! Thanks for watching!

Just like you, the DHR II. I just swapped from a stock MaxxTerra EXO DHR II to a MaxxGrip DD Assegai on my Canyon Spectral. Before that, on my old bike, I ran a MaxxGrip DH Casing DHR II. Sure, the MaxxTerra DHR II had a tendency to slip on loose dust, but the Assegai just threw me off with how numb it felt. Like, I want to like and keep the Assegai until it wears down. It's grip incarnate. But it just feels numb, and the fact that it doesn't leave tire marks on the trail means that the Assegai likes to ride on top of the soil and stick to it like tape, as opposed to something that grabs onto the soil, like velcro. Weird analogy, but I think you get it. With the MaxxGrip compound, the DHR II is velcro. You can hear the side knobs grab and rip through the soil, and you can feel the ripping sensation through your hands. For me, its one advantage over the Assegai is that it's a communicative tire. It lets you feel the trail condition and adapt accordingly. It allows you to be precise. The Assegai relies more on bravery and trust, which I admit I lack, lol. So with this review, I'm definitely excited for the High Roller to start coming in with DD casing.

@@mangoshake Thanks for sharing your thoughts! Based on what you have described, the new High Roller seems like it will fit your preferences perfectly.

Everyone loves the Assegai as a front, but the DHR is a great option too. I'm running 2.6 EXO+ MaxxTerra DHR front and rear on my 160/150 e-bike (with cush core), after having run DHR front/Dissector rear for a few months. Until I started converting my 150/130 trail bike into a quasi-park bike (currently 2.6 DD MaxxGrip Assegai front/rear with cush core, lol), it was DHR front/Rekon rear, which also performed great but in hindsight I think I'd have preferred to try the Forekaster on the rear, which I still want to try this winter/fall. But I'm not sure DHR front is going to last for me after trying the Assegai, which is just insanely confidence inspiring, so much so that I don't really care about the rolling speed. When you ran DHR front on the T.E.M.P.O, what did you have on the rear? I'm really interested in the High Roller 3 due to the incredibly loose and dusty conditions at my local parks, Dodge Ridge and Northstar. Too bad it's only presently offered in 2.4, but presumably there will be more soon. I'm so addicted to 2.6 wide tires I really wish Maxxis offered them in more DD/MaxxTerra for rear and EXO+/MaxxGrip for front. I personally haven't tried this combo of compounds/casings, but after watching/reading a ton of tire content this year, its definitely next on my list. I also want to try a faster rolling tire like even the Dissector in DD/MaxxGrip on the rear, but I'd rather not compromise on width. And after trying the DD/Grip Assegai front and rear at Northstar this weekend, I think it's a bit too much of a good thing (I'm going to stick with it for at least one more weekend tho), so I'm skeptical of using a pretty draggy tire like the DHR in Grip on the rear.

So would you take the high roller over Asegai now?

@@billydeewilliams8909 When I had the DHR in the front on the Tempo, I also had it in the rear. For me the DHR as a rear tire is my baseline, and I hardly go away from it. That said, I have a DD Dissector 2.4 I am going to toss on this week as my DHR is on the way out. Glad you are enjoying the way a 2.6 feels for you!

✌🏼

Don't have an exact cost, sorry!

Marzocchi suspension is great! Easy to setup and works super well✌🏼 Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed the video!

@@PeterJamison Thanks

anytime 🤙🏻

Definitely a cool angle to see that!

🤘🏼

YT's have internal guides for the routing, makes the job super easy🤙🏼

@@PeterJamison thank god

🤘🏼🤘🏼✨

🤘🏼

🤙🏼

New Status seems cool for sure! If Specialized sends one through I’d be happy to spend some time on it, however, it is looking like we have some other bikes coming up next!

Glad to hear you have the Float X feeling right for you and your bike! Thanks for watching the video!

🤙🏼

It is a good one!

40mm for the most part across the board, 50mm on the DH bike, and 32mm on the dirt jumper 🤙🏻

Yep, spicy chicken 🐔

Appreciate it!

🤘🏼

No need to say sorry, just enjoying the process ✌🏼

The two bikes are very similar. Even looking at the leverage ratio that people have determined from linkage X3 they are almost identical. That said, if you want carbon, you will need to go with a YT or if you want a mullet option. Otherwise, the FRS should do the trick for you ✌🏼

Thanks for the response!

Anytime!

Glad you found it helpful!

I don't have any super strong feelings about the Dissector, still need to log some more miles on it 🤙🏼

@@PeterJamison gotcha fam, other in the comments said that washes out more easily and less grip overall but rolls much better. Only tried on pals bike so dont have too much xp on it either

I am running 180mm Shimano XT Ice Tech rotors front and rear with XT 4 piston brakes front and rear. Bigger rotors manage heat better and offer more stopping power, hence why there are commonly bigger front rotors on bikes as most of your stopping more is in your front wheel. Hope this helps!

I am running 125mm rear travel, with a 140mm fork. That said, I will be installing and testing a 150mm fork this week 🤘

@@PeterJamison thanks for the quick reply! I also run 130mm in the rear and 140mm in the front, and I am also about to try 150mm in the front. Keep the videos coming! Great content!

​@AbrahamBarberi I switched out my 36 to a 38, and went up 10mm from 160 to 170mm. I really like having the extra travel and the little bit of slackness it seems to add.

Glad you are enjoying the content! Thanks for watching!

Appreciate the support! Thanks for watching 🙏

😂😂 Thanks for watching!

Appreciate the kind words 🙏🏼 More tempo content to come 👊🏼

Appreciate it Doug! Sounds like Dirt Labs could help you out 🤙🏻

And should I go with a carbon jeffsy or a tempo ?

The Tempo is 125mm rear, and either 140mm or 150mm front. Bike rides amazing and feels more capable than you would assume for 125mm rear travel! I haven't rode the new Jeffsy, but I would assume that the Tempo pedals better due to the shorter rear travel. Hope this helps 🤙

Glad you are enjoying it! Thanks for watching!

Love to hear it! Which bike was it for?

@@PeterJamison It's a Rockshox SuperDeluxe off his Devinci Wilson. It has a high speed rebound tune with a check valve. I couldn't find a stock tune like this for heavy springs (600lbs+) anywhere. I've run it on multiple bikes since and It's amazing.

Love their music! Thanks for watching 👊🏼
