So much insight into pros/Fox’s reasons for setup changes etc. Thank you To the Fox team for the investment in this and the camera/edit work which must run into the night, every night. Much appreciated!
i guess Im randomly asking but does any of you know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb forgot the password. I would love any tips you can give me.
@Cyrus Noe Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and I'm in the hacking process now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
Why's everyone bashing on loris? He backs his pickyness up woth great results, and riders like him who see potential to improve products are the reason why bikes are so good nowadays and will get even better.
Loris is all about feeling, he's not an analytical rider... but also his "descriptions" really make me try to work out what the ride is like to match the sounds!
I wonder how often Jordi pretends that he did change something but in the end didnt change anything and the rider was like "omg the setup is sooo much better now" 😅
Whereas I am a wealth of inexperience and lack of information and usually just say to the bike shop that "it doesn't feel right" lol. They then ask numerous questions most of which I struggle to understand and answer to try to figure out the problem through my shrugs mumbles and glazed eyes lol
Jordi is so patient. Yeah, um, ok, un huh, ok. Meanwhile, in his head, he already knows what to tune to get the shocks to handle perfectly. Yeah, un, ok, uh huh, ok.
I only watch these for rachel and loris haha! I mean other rides are cool but love how you guys make others spotlight small and loris/rachels long! Keep it up perfect entertaining and informative videos.
Fox's mechanics are so patient. Of course they are here to answer the questions of rider and adjusting the suspension but some riders do not know what they want
Another awesome vid - really enjoy the insights on these. I would love to know some more about the suspension techs professional backgrounds - how did they get to the jobs they are currently in? ie motorsport backgrounds, or push bikes through and through? Keep them coming! #lorisforpresident
I've only watched a few of these videos and I think the mechanic guy is really knowledgeable and helpful, if quirky, overworked, and bit distant. I wonder if he hates his job.
Damping gets a bit weaker as the oil heats up of course, but its not a huge difference, not with shim stacks anyway, low speed damping getting a bit faster doesnt make much difference.
95% don’t know there Suspension ... in Motor Sport Theres a good way to Handel this prob: the suspension is changed / not changed when the rider is not at the bike/ car ... and get not told what has done to it
Loris should ride with rockshox. They should have a more understanding mechanic working with him. He struggles with English and that’s fine. Rockshox would give him a French speaking mechanic
They sometimes do, I mean there are way more riders on Fox than you see in these videos, but some(mainly Loris) prefer Jordi's expertise even for the small changes.
The problem with normal air isn't the non-nitrogen gasses, it's the water content. Water will act like a volume spacer when liquid, then when the shock warms up, it can evapourate until a pressure increase under load causes it to condense back into a liquid temporarily. If the water changes state from gas to liquid during the stroke, you'll get a sudden ramp. Water can also mess with the oil and how that passes through the damping valves.
it seems way more physiological for these riders and techs seem more like head shrinks. as long as the bike is plush and not bottoming out you would think these riders would be skilled enough to compensate for it's short comings. Jordi should paint some Zoloft to look like Skittles and start passing them out to riders that continue to contradict themselves. as for Loris he just needs to go murder him in the middle of the night.
I'm getting tired of Jordi's bad attitud w/Loris, dude your job is to support the riders, if you feel is to much work, just ask for an extra hands to your people/team, but those cocky eyebrows faces are hurting the content that your brand is trying to build... Just guess who have more sales influence...
Jordi seems more confused and concentrated then having cocky eyebrows. The guy has to somehow figure out what the riders want when they can't fully explain what is happening with their suspension. He has to deal with this at every race that has to be pretty taxing after a while. Loris is fairly demanding and can't explain anything in words but noises and seems to always want something that does not exist. Many people would probably have snapped at him if they had been in Jordi's shoes. Loris has his own mechanic at the syndicate pit so I can only imagine what that guy has to deal with on the regular basis.
@@corail53 The guy is not the only one under stress, pilot are risking their life for results, just chek every helmet cam vídeo, so once again, if Jordi can't deal w/it just ask for support, by the way Loris after a crush, finished 5th in the last race... proper mechanic does matters....
Just the sheer number of human interactions over a weekend must be exhausting in itself. As a technician in a completely different field, I know how tiring it can be helping people with their technology and the careful questioning needed to get to reality. It can be frustrating. I cannot imagine doing it all day like a carnival act without the adrenaline the riders get. And we don't know what Fox wants with staffing there...🤙😃
Loris needs his own chair with his name on it 🤣
“Loris is special anyway”
Best line of the day!
So much insight into pros/Fox’s reasons for setup changes etc.
Thank you To the Fox team for the investment in this and the camera/edit work which must run into the night, every night. Much appreciated!
Martin Rodger WORD!👍🔥🙌
I think it's just one dude (Conor Macleod) doing all filming/editing. Props for the hard work dude!!
I'm beginning to get the impression that Loris gets sent down to Fox when his mechanic is tired of listening to him!
haaa!!! my thoughts exactly... That look on Jordis face haa!!
And Jordi sends him to RockShox... :)))
i guess Im randomly asking but does any of you know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb forgot the password. I would love any tips you can give me.
@Cyrus Noe Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and I'm in the hacking process now.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Cyrus Noe It worked and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my account !
Loris is the kind of guy who calls his gp on the phone and says it hurts here and actually showing the area.
Jordi has the patience of a saint, especially when Loris used noises to describe how the suspension feels.......
brendog looks confident now hes on a good bike
Pumped for Brendan. Wants a top 10 and gets 6th place nearly making podium.
these never get old, such a good series
Saw the title and smiled. Love the Fox crew and the Syndicate!
8:00 so she basically just there to say thank you.
"back and forth for no reason" hahahahahaha we need a jordi dialed special compilation
Brendawg 6th place shows his visits were worthwhile.
And Luca needs to join Loris often.
It's so crazy that jordi is secretly a sports psychologist for all of these racers, he deserves so much credit
I like how polite Marine Cabriou is. No attitudes of elitism and actually quite sweet lady.
When u wanna punch somebody in the face, but have to hold the wrench instead.
Why's everyone bashing on loris? He backs his pickyness up woth great results, and riders like him who see potential to improve products are the reason why bikes are so good nowadays and will get even better.
Why??? because he can't explain what he feels... a pure carnage... #Lorisestpénible
Loris is all about feeling, he's not an analytical rider... but also his "descriptions" really make me try to work out what the ride is like to match the sounds!
Brendon seems like the only rider who knows what he i talking about..
Yeah experience talks eh?
Brendog knows his stuff.
Loris and Jordi need their own reallity show on tv..like the odd couple..too funny!!🍿👍
Stu Billit bike husbands of uci
Greg's face at 10:20 says it all, hahahah
I love the patience of Jordi!!
Loris is always entertaining when he describes his rides. lol
Jordi is the kind of specialist, that doesn't go "trial and error"; he knows exactly what he does!
somebody oughta do a mashup of loris doing his now infamous farting sounds when he describes his suspension
When Loris sits down you know its gonna be a long session with alot of funny noises and expressions on how his suspension feels :D
8:03 jordi looked soo happy/relived for a second
The last episode of the series will be with Loris and how satisfied he is with the work of his front and rear suspension.
I wonder how often Jordi pretends that he did change something but in the end didnt change anything and the rider was like "omg the setup is sooo much better now" 😅
Whereas I am a wealth of inexperience and lack of information and usually just say to the bike shop that "it doesn't feel right" lol. They then ask numerous questions most of which I struggle to understand and answer to try to figure out the problem through my shrugs mumbles and glazed eyes lol
Jordy is really a sports psychologist! I’d love to hear his unfiltered thoughts after each racer leaves his tent!
Jordi is so patient. Yeah, um, ok, un huh, ok. Meanwhile, in his head, he already knows what to tune to get the shocks to handle perfectly. Yeah, un, ok, uh huh, ok.
I only watch these for rachel and loris haha! I mean other rides are cool but love how you guys make others spotlight small and loris/rachels long! Keep it up perfect entertaining and informative videos.
*Loris is special anyway*
Fox's mechanics are so patient. Of course they are here to answer the questions of rider and adjusting the suspension but some riders do not know what they want
Öhlins just say “ Ok Bruno your bikes ready “ and he wins 🤣🤟🏾
Does Jordi ever feel like he is an exhibit at the zoo with all the folks walking by and staring in? Another great episode - well done!
Suspension experts, could it be the lower temperature in the morning that increase the damping? Higher viscosity would mean higher damping right?
Jordi is the man!!! 😎🔥🦸🏻♂️👍
Jordie is a fucking legend. Hey, Jordie my bike does Bruul, blurt, poop, and pis. Ok click, click ,click try it now..... AMAZING
Dropping what's probably a 5K bike @ 3:30, solid effort
That was a good Schwarzenegger impression at 8:53.
3:30 :( R.I.P SantaCruz
As always great vid. Love these vids.
Another awesome vid - really enjoy the insights on these.
I would love to know some more about the suspension techs professional backgrounds - how did they get to the jobs they are currently in? ie motorsport backgrounds, or push bikes through and through?
Keep them coming! #lorisforpresident
These videos make me want to ride FOX badly! I've been on SRAM forever, but I'm curious to play with h/l speed everything.
naw
Nice chain slap noise from the new Commencal at 11:38 :/
More of Loris. Love LOve
I've only watched a few of these videos and I think the mechanic guy is really knowledgeable and helpful, if quirky, overworked, and bit distant. I wonder if he hates his job.
Jordi's always like a grumpy Dad at the park, the riders are his annoying kids.
Do they race the bike cold (as in suspension cool)? I wonder if a good set up runs a little softer on race day
Damping gets a bit weaker as the oil heats up of course, but its not a huge difference, not with shim stacks anyway, low speed damping getting a bit faster doesnt make much difference.
@@piciu256 Thanks Piotr that makes sense
8:53 "Get to the Choppa!"
I really think Loris needs some Rockshox in his life.
Somebody should make a video with all the noises Loris makes
i'm going to miss Loris next season
That guy look soo tired
Poor Jordi, Loris keeps him up at night
Do any pro riders ever use the MRP ramp control?
95% don’t know there Suspension ... in Motor Sport Theres a good way to Handel this prob: the suspension is changed / not changed when the rider is not at the bike/ car ... and get not told what has done to it
Thats eactly what they do testing days before the season
Would have been cool to catch MATH VAN DER POEL
Get his thoughts on trying DH he has won on all other canyon bikes 🤣
Loris should ride with rockshox. They should have a more understanding mechanic working with him. He struggles with English and that’s fine. Rockshox would give him a French speaking mechanic
What about changes to shim stacks? It is clearly developed, but then any further settings are just clickers.
10:17 Jordi does some fake adjusting on Loris bike... lol
We should have a show about Jordi and Loris
How come the riders mechanics can’t do the minor adjustments?
They sometimes do, I mean there are way more riders on Fox than you see in these videos, but some(mainly Loris) prefer Jordi's expertise even for the small changes.
Most of the time he's slowing down rebound and HSC
Loris has been hanging out with Greg a lot lately
Not enough though.
Is Nina the only person to stop by and say thanks?
In the next video ask Jordi what his favourite current dh bike is and what his all time favourite downhill bike is and why? Cheers!
How do I get jordys job
How do you say “Operator Error” in French?
You can’t fool jordi he knows if the suspension has been tinked with
Haha, Loris is a pest. He needs a dedicated fox assistant to attend to his ocd setup issues.
Make a video of just Loris's suspension descriptions. 🤣🤣🤣
Does loris run on 27 ???
I reckon Loris is after some camera time...Ha Ha !!
"loris is special anyways"
The more clicks the faster you'll be. Science proved this long ago. 🤘🐺🥞
Which clicks though?
Marine 🥵
Why the fox does not use a cooler thing in place of the air to solve the problem of temperature oscillation. some call it nitrogen gas.........
I think it's oil temp that effects the damping characteristics not so much an increase in pressure due to the air warming up
Because air is basically 80% nitrogen? So not worth the hassle of lugging around special tanks and compressors.
@@LukasDePraga still nowhere as good as pure nitrogen
The problem with normal air isn't the non-nitrogen gasses, it's the water content. Water will act like a volume spacer when liquid, then when the shock warms up, it can evapourate until a pressure increase under load causes it to condense back into a liquid temporarily. If the water changes state from gas to liquid during the stroke, you'll get a sudden ramp. Water can also mess with the oil and how that passes through the damping valves.
@@EmyrDerfel please post a link to your non sense. Pure nitrogen is used because its inert - pressure doesnt vary depending on temperature.
Jordi and his "special needs child",Loris lol
Loris is the worst advocate for fox forks.....sounds like he hates them
Loris need to move to Rockshox
To much rebound on scott mdr
Okay guys, I love the series!! But way too much Loris in this episode! : /
It is a miracle Loris didn't get slapped
The dude in the background dropped his bike harder than yt dropped gwinn.
Why is the filmer so awkward
Fox suspension load of shit , just turn both dials all the way out and leave it cos it makes Zero difference anyway, Get Rockshox WAY BETTER 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
funny how everyone is bashing on loris but you guys know nothing about being professional athletes 😆
None a that xc shit
At first it was fun but Loris is starting to get irritating.
I'm so so sorry he has to deal with the millennial.
It may encourage him not to have kids lol.
it seems way more physiological for these riders and techs seem more like head shrinks. as long as the bike is plush and not bottoming out you would think these riders would be skilled enough to compensate for it's short comings. Jordi should paint some Zoloft to look like Skittles and start passing them out to riders that continue to contradict themselves. as for Loris he just needs to go murder him in the middle of the night.
First .

We don't care about XC riders.
