Sounds like the pogo pins... Sad to be hearing it on X0 too. I should be getting a unit with my upcoming E-Bike. I will make an update if it happens to that one as well.

Exactly my thoughts. Can't wait for the mechanical Transmission to come out!

Thanks dude, Merry Christmas to you too!

😉

Multiple places in the SF Bay Area.

I don't think the seal is very affective. I think water is still making it in and again with the GX T-Type its able to site rather then drain like the vertically mounted AXS.

@@thebigoutsidemtb if so then adding some amount of silicone grease when mounting the battery to seal the pins should be a good idea in order to prevent this

I think you mean the motion blur? That was on purpose as it shows more speed. I'm using a GoPro Hero 12 Black. So yes, a newer camera. Thanks man 🤙

@@thebigoutsidemtb With the Osmo, once your shutter speed is lower than 1/200 s AND you have stabilization enabled, you can see an undesirable ghosting effect, more than motion blur. The solution for that is increasing shutter speed to a minimum of 1/200 s, or disabling stabilization, the latter of which is not an option while mountain biking. The alternative would be adding motion blur in post to regain the effect you lose when increasing shutter speed.

Well if it's not T-Type then you should be for the most part okay. Seems to only be an issue on GX T-Type. Thanks for watching!

Looks like a Santa Cruz heckler sl

Santa Cruz Bronson

Nope, not an E-Bike. Santa Cruz Bronson

Actually, the trails I was riding handle the wet like stuff you would find in Squamish. Roots that have any moisture are going to be slippery so you just have to ride everything in a different way as you don't have tractions in the same areas as if it was dry. Haha, that's cool to hear! I do get a lot of people recognize be in the lot 😅

@@thebigoutsidemtb Don't listen to him, the majority of riders know exactly what trails get damaged when ridden wet and they are on the majority all climbing or beginner/intermediate trails. Steep technical descents are fine to ride wet. They can easily be repaired if need be and it's generally just catchers that get damaged. If you can't handle wet roots and rocks then you should be inside gloomily staring out of the window with a cup of Bovril.

No, this was 2 weeks ago.

Nice!

Have you had it happen? You are the first if you have.

@thebigoutsidemtb not me personally but a customer who was racing xc mtb and had to dnf because of it.

@@tomgrant6563 What failed? Did the contact spring just get some corrosion which caused the battery to not make a connection? I know for certain that corrosion isn't going to stop that spring from moving. If it is just corrosion on the spring, that is a very easy fix with a pick.

@@thebigoutsidemtb what failed? His gears! I'll have to ask him exactly what happened, it may have been due to incorrect installation of the cells. But the point is all the batteries and electronics are unnecessary complexity and weaknesses /failure points.

Thanks for letting me know! Thanks for watching!

Thanks dude! I run 25psi rear and 20psi front.

Never ridden there. I'll have to check it out sometime!

Very dusty!

That is definitely something I liked about transmission. But I have yet to bend a hanger (knock on wood) But I always carry a spare just in case. So far so good.

But wouldn't it be better if it just never makes it in 🤷‍♂️ I know it's no big deal to just add some grease but it's something I don't want to keep doing every couple of rides, you shouldn't have to do that. I find the SKF seal does a better job of keeping the grease in and the dirt out. I do use silicone spray every time I wash the bike. Well, when I remember that is. Seems to keep the seals running better for longer on the fork, but didn't seem to help the dropper post much.

@@thebigoutsidemtb "But wouldn't it be better if it just never makes it in" It would but that is never going to happen in our life times, the technology is nowhere near that. I have been running SKF seals on my forks for years, dirt still gets in even with cleaning after every ride. Try what I do above with silicone spray on your fork and you will be surprised just how much dirt you can pull back out from behind the seal. It will also help your seals seat against the stanchion better reducing future ingress of dirt.

I am! So far its been my favorite setup! Just keep in mind I did have the shock tuned for the bike and the cascade link so my experience might be different. You will also want a heavier spring as I was going to run a 350lbs but EXT and Cascade both said to run a 500. Which feels perfect.

The older AXS doesn't have the issue as much. This is T-Type GX that is having all the issues.

I mean you might be able to do without but I was just following what others do. Also doesn’t hurt to clean it and give it some fresh oil.

🥶

Definitely! Gotta come in the summer, doesn't get very dusty and its never wet 😅

I'm testing out some enduro Kryptotal's on my trail bike. I'm going to also be testing out a Argotal Super Soft DH for a front this winter on my enduro bike. I have yet to use an Exynotal but plan to get one for a faster rear tire for my trail bike, likely going to be used in the summer. So I do plan to make a video of my experience with the lineup but as of now, I have just used the Kryptotal's in DH and Enduro casing. I will be sure to share my thoughts on the other tires once I have more ride time on them!

@thebigoutsidemtb thank you I will start with a rear tire to test it out since my front assegai is still good

@@boogiedownbronx73 For sure! I think you will like the setup. But tbh, I think the front tire is where you will feel it the most.

GoPro Hero 12 Black Settings: 4K, 30fps, Hyperview Protune: Shutter: Auto EV Comp: -1.0 White Balance: 5500k ISO Min: 100 ISO Max: 800 (This changes depending on low or high light. 800 for higher light and 1600 for lower light) Sharpness: Medium Color: Vibrant RAW Audio: Off Wind: Off Hope that helps and thanks for watching!

@@thebigoutsidemtb Thanks man! Wish I could ride like you someday!

@@Larryeskabob No Problem! Just keep at it and you can ride at this level too! Thanks for watching!

It's not "bad" its just got some issues that need to be addressed. SRAM knows it, I think that they just wont fix it because they are still selling enough for it to be profitable and just ignoring how many fail. Thanks for watching!

Heck yeah dude! They are both super fun and definitely worth going out of your way to ride them!

This is an acoustic bike. This is my 170/170mm enduro bike. What you’re probably mistaken by is the Garmin head unit on the top tube.

@ 😳 ok you’re gnarly. If I ever see you at rincon we should catch a lap

Actually they do, tones of super fast locals on the leaderboard.

@@thebigoutsidemtb yes and we all know who the King is- He's at the top of just about everything here in town..Thursday nights is the night if you want to test

@@yuriredstaar To be honest, its all different people in this area for the most part. Unless its on an E-Bike then we all know who is king 😂

@@thebigoutsidemtb yes- Ebike. We all know who is at the Top of pretty much all the more Gnarly stuff here in Town

Can't say. Secret.

@@thebigoutsidemtb you can at least give a general area??? If you say "santa cruz" nobody is going to scour the entirety of santa cruz for this one trail. I know it isn't santa cruz cause I live and bike there and haven't seen this one lol

It sure is! But it's honestly so smooth once you get it. Lets get some laps once you get back!
