I also have a fork like this one R.S. Recon. It was a 90mm travel but you can easily adjust the travel for up to 150mm. I changed mine for 120mm and it has been great. And it wasn’t need to take it to a bike shop.
Thanks man, I have heard there is something similar with the fork I have and hope to install that app thing?? LOL We will see, but thank you for watching and again!! The fork is sweet and cant wait to show off its possible predecessor!!!
Nice video. So you’re saying I need to find wheels and get this fork for my Boundary... oh and thanks for the early morning buzz. Thinking the drinking game was cool but you were lovin the key word. Kidding keep it up. I get on the coffee thing soon!
😂😂😂😁Was like "DAMN" this guy gets started early or he is just a really BIG fan LMFAO! So def need to look into a new wheel set if you want this fork man, it is butter! But Fridays video we will be showing off a new fork!!! for the 29'er and the 27.5 GT!!!! May be a better one??? LOL Thanks brother and see ya Friday
Yeeesss! SRAM NX, my favorite! I love SRAM so much, and I think you're gonna love it too. I'm gonna buy a new mountain bike sometime soon, and think I'm gonna upgrade the drivetrain to SRAM NX or maybe GX. Shimano is good, but I prefer SRAM more.
Very cool man, I hear alot about the both of them and just think its way too cool to have had KIM VEXBORG send them to us, they are insanely light!!! Thanks Andrew and let us know when you get the new ride man!!
That is nice of you to say. We are having a good time doing this but it is a grind that is for sure. Hopefully we can go full time one day. Thanks for the kind words man.🙏
Ready for the Aggressor update! The info on this stuff has been super helpful, though I goofed on my cassette upgrade. Too long of an derailer arm. Keep it up!
LOL Thansk man, we try and get er done and I think we do an ok job at it. Glad you can appreciate that, im sure your a guy that works with his hands:) Most of us get that and then some dont, which isnt wrong but it just feels so right when you do it with what you made!!!:)
Awesome! I love the new helmet, I have the same Fox Speedframe Pro helmet. Got the Sticker, put it on my mudguard. Hopefully you see it in my next ride! I had the same fork on my Marin San Quentin, i loved them so much. That NX Crankset is sick also!
RL-rebound & Lockout-Gold is the higher spec model, with a Motion Control damper featuring rebound and low-speed compression. Thats what I could find now, the Judy SL? Not a clue:)
Jack said you said Dude more than I usually do in this video hahaha....great mail opening guys.... 11:11 is that vegan string cheese hahaha.... super ride man....you'll be drinking that soda soon enough buddy hahaha
Dude it was said like 7 times!!!! Thats like a 1/4 of the amount you say it!!!HA Thanks guys and glad you are enjoying us like we are you! Mailtime is always fun!!! Later DUDES/SOAKED
Nice "adult toy" !! Looks fun. Now that you have rode a nice air shock everything else is going to pale in comparison. Thanx for the video guys....And ty for the note in my letter.
So do we😂 We tried to buy a Axum, and Walmart screwed us over. But this Taff is something man, Im telling you. We might go on a hunt soon so we have another project for the winter. Thanks man
Told ya!! The bad apart about it is, the rockshox recon solo air is considered and are the top of the line "budget fork" as far as feel, response,weight, durability, and dependability go you won't find many that compete in ALL the characteristics of that fork. Unless of course you go to the low end of the top of the line forks starting around 450- $1500. But not many in the 100mm travel selection, only sram jumped in on that market with the rockshox recon rl and has turned out to be a GENIUS move so far.
Dude they are a sweet deal man, and not only that but FRIDAYS video we are breaking into 2 sets of FORKS man a 29er and a 27.5, probably somethign you havent seen? Well you probably have but man oh man is it gonna be good. Thanks brother and dad said dont piss him off anymore #WOLFMANANGRY
Man I looked and searched for you and given the facts, they seem to be the exact same style of forks from the lowers to the steerer tubes, I may be wrong but they look and read to be the exact same. I MEAN EXACT lol!
LOL, I'm rewatching every video of yours that has this fork to prepare for when I get mine this upcoming week. I also made a pretty stupid splurge purchase of a $100 RaceFace Atlas Stem (60mm no rise). Will it make a difference in my riding, most likely not, but it looks good and I know it won't break anytime soon. This stem replaced the $13.00 Wake stem i had which was 60mm and had a 25mm rise, thankfully I left some height on my current fork head tube so I could move the stem up to make up for the rise I was losing since I'm a tall guy.
Man oh no you did not!! LOL That fork is nasty, let us know what you think...100 DOLLARS!!!!!!!!🤯🤯 LOL What else does the stem do for that kind of money??!! 🤣🤣 Way to splurge man!!
Question about the Rockshox with it only being 100mm of travel. Did you have any problem with it bottoming out? Did you have to increase the air pressure or anything?
Hey brother the forks have bottomed out once on black diamond and came with 90 psi and I havent messed with the pressure since. They are pretty sweet man but got the X fusion trace 34 forks coming !!! Checkout the update video and we show if you havent already. They are 120mm of travel and im sooooo excited! But they are more expensive
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I’ve put 780mm wake bars, top cabin grips, burklos 110mm fork, ixf cranks with jhbike chainring, maxxis high roller 2 27.5 by 2.3, Fokker pedals there’s a video on my channel going over all of the parts with a bike check
Boost is basically a word used for more width, it provides the ability to run a fatter width tire and provide more traction upfront with a thicker beefier tire. Not needed just a different thing for manufacturers to come up with to try and sell people on:)
I have a question I put on some new tires on my gt pro aggressor. My tires I got are slaughter grid 650Bx2.6 I hear it rubbing when you go fast but can not spot where it is at also my tires are wobbly should I air down? Or is my tires just too big or is my dis break rubbing onto my break pad. I'm new to mtb sorry if I don't make sense
Hey brother no biggy, I would check th e frame on all four spots were the tire gets close to. Maybe a disc rub but thats a different noise, almost a knife being sharpened on a stone sound:) Check your frame and if you dont see it there then it may be a cause of your tire feeling wobbly. First take all the air out of your tires and run your finger inside to make sure the tube is not bound up, I have had this happen before and it will cause the tires to become wobbly. Next after you get done if possible take the tires off the bike and fill with air while they are laying on the side, fill slowely and you should here a few pops, thats good that means the tires are beading. After mounting check it out and see man and hopefully that will help!! If all else fails check and make sure your rims arent bent:)
Thing is sweet dude, I just put it thru some hell today on a black diamond and WOW "SOAKED"!!LOL Have you seen the newest GT upgrade update? It has thwo new forks we are going to be putting o the GT and the TAFF!!! Thanks man and appreciate you watching:) The recons are sweet ad also I need that app
That trail looks like so much fun, wish there was something like that near me. Gutted about the sodas, one day it will happen, I'm sure 😂 Fantastic video as always chaps, but probably best to do drinking games on the Friday releases 😂🍻🍻
😂😂😂Well Dan just watch her again on the Fridays video!!! Hope the stickers reach you well man! Appreciate the continued support brother:) And we are very lucky to have trails like that in our area!
💙Quite possibly my brother! LOL and yes and yes on the Handguards man, they are a very cool company and we appreciate them. Thank you for all the support yourself man and we will see you Friday MAG! Got some very good teasers and info!
Hey man, now if your pads/bike is new it is probably just needed to be worn in and then it will quieten up. That or they are rubbing due to mis alignment. Just carefully loosen your caliper bolts then squeeze your lever, while squeezing tighten and it should stop, if not just play with the angle a little man. Hope this helps!!!
Hey thanks man! Yes the GEO Handguards are nice. If you watch the newest Malus video I was testing them by running into trees haha. In case you didn't see it and you would like to here is the link: th-cam.com/video/rzAhXlY9P28/w-d-xo.html Thanks again man.
I'm glad you reviewed the Rock Shox Recon. I am planning to replace my Manitou Spyder forks with the TK version when they bite the dust. Do you think the ExaForm 588 RL rear shock and the Recon's would be a good combination? That is what I am leaning towards for the rebuild of my 1999 Specialized FSR Sport. Thanks again for another great video!
Not a problem at all man, now I think that may be a good combo. I would be interested to hear back form ya on the feel and overall travel. They are both good products that we have yet to have a problem with. The TK is tough as nails and the Exa is smooth! Thanks again Gary and we look forward to the REVIEW!!
man, I'm watching this while working, and otherwise I'd be hammered by 16 minute mark. easy with the soak/soaked/soaking :D but great video. hopefully, you'll have a chance to test RockShox Judy someday. It comes as a stock on some bike I'm looking at for next year, was wondering is it any good. And that helmet is nice. it will go great with the Malice! and I feel cheated for that soda. I thought your dad will play it on reply for 24 hours just so you'd have to drink it too :D
Ha Ha surprised he did not!:) Now glad you didnt drink at work but you better of got hammered later on!!!!LOL Very funny man I was so stuck on that:) I cringed everytime and had to turn it into a drinking game ha ha. Thanks-The rockshox would be interesting man but let me tell you something! FRIDAYS video will have a 29er fork and a 27.5 fork!!! Very damn coo Forks we hope and cannot wait for it as well:) Thanks Mario and hope the stickers show up soon brother:) Be safe and much Love from the U.S.A
Another super video! You guys have the entertainment to information balance nailed down! Was looking at the Rockshox Judy, then at these Recon RL's, but ended up ordering the Manitou Markhor fork for my Taff. The reviews seem to be excellent and the price was right on them. Mabye the Rockshox down the road after I get me some skills! I presume you still have the Zoom brakes on there. How are they doing? I know in one of the previous videos you weren't too sure about them. Thus, I'm leaning towards the Shimano MT200's. Keep ridiin' and have a great day!
Hey DAVE! The forks are sweet and please let me know how yours do? I just couldent get over the crown being "backwards?" IDK maybe im weird but please let me know man. And just like everything else when it comes to upgrades just skill it up first then pay a little more lol. The zoom brakes I had a problem with them in the beginning but bled them again and they are......well just wait! And hold onto your wallet when it comes to the brake department, you may be surprised, lets just say I am:) the video should be out sometime next week i think. Well nice chatting man and thanks for the views and good conversation.
i have ridden a hardtail with a recon rl and i looooved the fork (it was a 2009 recon rl but performed like new) but guess what... i have a non tapered head tube 🤯
Woow that looks awesome. I am actually doing the same project bike and I was lucky enough to find your chanel, great to see you guys taking it apart and sharing the whole process. Question, I have a set boost wheels I haven't been able to use, I see the fork you used is a boost but you think I could use the other boost in the back? And what's the widest tyre I could use in your opinion. Thanks again
Hey brother thank you for finding us!! Ha ha the LTWOO groupset video will be out Tuesday so you may otta check in, but man I don't think you can run a boost on the back??? I'm not sure man we lucked out and found the 9mm rear so??? Maybe?? But please let me know now the rear tire width I would say max a 2.3. We got some but haven't tried to see if they fit just yet. Going to be trying aone specialized 2.2s but I measured and it looks like a 2.3 max. Thanks again man and like I said please let is know how it goes👍
Enjoy the video I wish I would’ve saw you drink all three drinks love the helmet it’s Fox 🦊 looking forward to your next video and on the giveaway looking forward what you choose I’ve been putting in lotta upgrades to my GT more than the bike is worth but is my only bike enjoy your video huge fan love your work
Man Sam I know you love us man and we love the hell out of your support brother, always watching,commenting and giving me a hard time!!! Much Love Sam and that helmet is bad*ss! Thanks man and looking forward to the giveway!
I've seen those man, get this! In a couple of weeks we got the bucklos going on a fragment!! $110 air fork. Checkout last weeks tuesday video on the Taff, it's pretty damn cheap man!
HA HA enjoyed those Beers you bought for us!!! Thanks man and please send mailing address to us so we can hook you up with some stickers!!!! Thanks Lost Trail🙏
No problem brother, thanks for voting LOL, when you win I will be sure to send the correct ones!! But seriously we will figure out the giveway man! Thanks for being apart of the 4000SUBBERS Allen!
Man its a little much$ So unless it drops a little maybe, but dude it is so hard to think of riding on a fork with a backwards crown!!!LOL I dont know if I could do it??
Awesome. Set up the rockshox recon 130mm on my GT avalanche. They are awesome. Especially on these San Diego trails. You can check them out on my MTB climax you tube channel. Holla holla holla. Drink that pickle soda for the tube lol
Man it is such a smooth and wonderful ride. They are sweet:) Maybe watch Fridays video?? NEW 29er FORK and 27.5 FORK!!!! May change your mind brother lol Thanks Carlos
HA HA Thats my GUY!!!!:) Hold on there big chief, just watch Fridays video first before you get all excited ha ha, we will be showing off 2 new forks 29er and 27.5:)
Hay man we will check it out, been talking about it and may be a future build, I have a road bike I am thinking about transforming! Its already got front and rear disc brakes, a little tweaks here and there and it may be something?? Thanks Shadow:) we will check into it right now:)
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS thanks man! i am buying a poseidon the redwood gravel bike that they had... from my gt to gravel bike? hmmm... we will see... looking forward for that episode too! 😉
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS regarding about upgrading your road bike to gravel bike? might be a good idea and giving a little bit of clearance of the wheel would be good. the one i got on poseidon bikes was the redwood had a 2.5 tire clearance also could use a 29er on it might have to show you when that comes.
Thanks man, I sent them an email last night:) Maybe maybe not? IDK but man thanks for introducing them to us, they have some really sweet bikes and for under $1000 thats very sweet as well!
Hmmm... 2.5? I seen one that had up to a 2.1 but a 2.5 would be cool as hell man, do me a favor. Send me a link man, thanks again Shadow and hit me up when you get it!!!!
Welcome to riding your first real fork. If you are blown away by a recon which is a fork that most enthusiast consider to be a fork that just works. You will be blown away when you get to a lyrik ultimate 😉
I vote get viewers to send in something (videos of them riding, pictures of their bikes, cool views from trails etc.) and you rate the best one and they win the giveaway. Edit: with all the parts you guys got lying around now, I think its time to buy a mid-high tier frame and put a bike together on it.
Hey vexis already have been gathering pics form viewers/subbers and will be doing something like that soon:) But if we got a mid tier frame would have to throw some money at it man, couldent put used not good stuff on it, maybe in a pinch but that would hurt to do so:):)
That's right! Someones been paying attention to how this whole thing works😉 Good, now we don't have to feel guilty for you watching during school time🤣😜. Thanks man
I recently finished my build on my 2005 GT aggressor and I also went with the RockShox forks but I have the recon silver TK and they are amazing. My next build is my 2020 aggressor pro. Like always I’m loving the channel 👍🏻👍🏻
Man we were bummed out also. The official count at the 24hr mark was 868. Thanks for doing your part, but unfortunately not everyone else did the same. There will be more chances in the near future though. Thanks again man.
My guy, I can help you fellas with the giveaway. Just give it all to me! Problem solved 😂 But on a serious note, personally I’d be cool with either option on the giveaway!
Hey brother! Long time no hear:) HA HA hope you are doing good man and thanks for the input on the giveaway!! Thanks for watching Tyler and hope you watch Tomorrows VID!!! Gonna be some sweet forks man and drivetrain:) Later bud
Looked at a large clamp last night man, a little expensive but agree. When it comes to mounts go pro is nice to have and not a knockoff. But will do man. Thanks for the constructive criticism.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS man I'm so stoked for you for real it's going to be a good one watch I'm going to try and be first comment tomorrow and if not I got you guys on some coffee
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I was cracking up on this part of the video and my gears were turning trying to figure out what this adult toy was lol. I lived in NJ so my life till last year and believe it or not... Those adult toys are illegal in NJ... (NJ sucks... It's illegal to pump your own gas...). I'm in Florida now and maybe I'll check them out... I can see it being fun
😂😂😂😐That would mean I would have to stop, switchup camera angles and make sure I go out fully loaded and not half cocked!!!😂😂😂😂If I do hope nobody sees me, you can get arrested for stuff like that here in Arkansas!!!LOL IDK maybe bring a cousin along???😂😂😂😂😆😆
Hey what's up? Very good video...I bought you a cup of coffee but I forgot to include my address for a possible sticker.. please give me your email address so I can send it to you. You can shout me out.. I have those same cranks they are great
Don't wanna be rude to Rockshox, but this fork is dogshite, it is so sticky it is insane. You can see on the uppers that there is oil inside, but damn I am low weight rider and when I lean on the front of my bike gently the fork will not move by a milimeter, and that is on almost 30% of sag. Even my 30 Silver perfoms better than this fork. Yeah low speed compression is nice to have, but on the other hand if you ride trails it is kinda pointless, unless you are hitting them turns so front doesn't dive. It is kinda ok when it finally moves further, but small bump sensitivity is basically non existent since you have to put some force to initiate it. It can be extended to 150mm which is a plus, but bottomless tokens are not an option, so I would recommend just paying a little bit more for gold 35, or even revelation if you are semi-advanced rider. Maybe later down the road the seals will wear of a little so it doesn't stick so hard, but 1st impression is: dayum dis fork trash.
Thanks for the shout out, glad to see my parcel arrived safely 👍
And I do hope you guys somehow can get it to fit.
Thank you so much Kim! That' was so nice of you brother, hope the stickers reach you soon, like the package did us!! Much love man
I also have a fork like this one R.S. Recon. It was a 90mm travel but you can easily adjust the travel for up to 150mm. I changed mine for 120mm and it has been great. And it wasn’t need to take it to a bike shop.

🥇Thanks man! We think you might be interested in the boxes that that we didn't open haha. We will reveal on Friday's video Budget Upgrades Update #4.
So, what is "Boost" and do I need it?
Boost is basically a word used for more width, it provides the ability to run a fatter width tire and provide more traction upfront with a thicker beefier tire. Not needed just a different thing for manufacturers to come up with to try and sell people on:)
Yes, like i said, you pay for quality, and just like on my vid, with the Rockshox Judy, I still can't find a negative, they are amazing

Hey man, now if your pads/bike is new it is probably just needed to be worn in and then it will quieten up. That or they are rubbing due to mis alignment. Just carefully loosen your caliper bolts then squeeze your lever, while squeezing tighten and it should stop, if not just play with the angle a little man. Hope this helps!!!
WOLFTICK VIDEOS I loosens the cable a little bit and the noise went away I think the factory did it too tight.
Gotcha man and thanks for the quick response!! Just make sure the pads are making even contact brother:) Way to figure it out lol
WOLFTICK VIDEOS thanks
Nice video! Those handguards are a neat idea!
Hey thanks man! Yes the GEO Handguards are nice. If you watch the newest Malus video I was testing them by running into trees haha. In case you didn't see it and you would like to here is the link: th-cam.com/video/rzAhXlY9P28/w-d-xo.html Thanks again man.
I'm glad you reviewed the Rock Shox Recon. I am planning to replace my Manitou Spyder forks with the TK version when they bite the dust. Do you think the ExaForm 588 RL rear shock and the Recon's would be a good combination? That is what I am leaning towards for the rebuild of my 1999 Specialized FSR Sport. Thanks again for another great video!
Not a problem at all man, now I think that may be a good combo. I would be interested to hear back form ya on the feel and overall travel. They are both good products that we have yet to have a problem with. The TK is tough as nails and the Exa is smooth! Thanks again Gary and we look forward to the REVIEW!!
man, I'm watching this while working, and otherwise I'd be hammered by 16 minute mark. easy with the soak/soaked/soaking :D but great video. hopefully, you'll have a chance to test RockShox Judy someday. It comes as a stock on some bike I'm looking at for next year, was wondering is it any good. And that helmet is nice. it will go great with the Malice! and I feel cheated for that soda. I thought your dad will play it on reply for 24 hours just so you'd have to drink it too :D
Ha Ha surprised he did not!:) Now glad you didnt drink at work but you better of got hammered later on!!!!LOL Very funny man I was so stuck on that:) I cringed everytime and had to turn it into a drinking game ha ha. Thanks-The rockshox would be interesting man but let me tell you something! FRIDAYS video will have a 29er fork and a 27.5 fork!!! Very damn coo Forks we hope and cannot wait for it as well:) Thanks Mario and hope the stickers show up soon brother:) Be safe and much Love from the U.S.A
Another great video guys. I Appreciate it!
Hey man nice to hear from ya!! Thanks for still being here and supporting brother, dont be a stranger bossman:) we appreciate you as well!
Another super video! You guys have the entertainment to information balance nailed down! Was looking at the Rockshox Judy, then at these Recon RL's, but ended up ordering the Manitou Markhor fork for my Taff. The reviews seem to be excellent and the price was right on them. Mabye the Rockshox down the road after I get me some skills! I presume you still have the Zoom brakes on there. How are they doing? I know in one of the previous videos you weren't too sure about them. Thus, I'm leaning towards the Shimano MT200's. Keep ridiin' and have a great day!
Hey DAVE! The forks are sweet and please let me know how yours do? I just couldent get over the crown being "backwards?" IDK maybe im weird but please let me know man. And just like everything else when it comes to upgrades just skill it up first then pay a little more lol. The zoom brakes I had a problem with them in the beginning but bled them again and they are......well just wait! And hold onto your wallet when it comes to the brake department, you may be surprised, lets just say I am:) the video should be out sometime next week i think. Well nice chatting man and thanks for the views and good conversation.
Both styles
Yeah I think we are probably going to give away one of each. We are coming up with the best way for us to do that. Thanks man
i have ridden a hardtail with a recon rl and i looooved the fork (it was a 2009 recon rl but performed like new) but guess what... i have a non tapered head tube 🤯
MIND BLOWN!!!!LOL Just wait till Fridays video man! 2 FORKS:):):)
Woow that looks awesome.
I am actually doing the same project bike and I was lucky enough to find your chanel, great to see you guys taking it apart and sharing the whole process. Question, I have a set boost wheels I haven't been able to use, I see the fork you used is a boost but you think I could use the other boost in the back? And what's the widest tyre I could use in your opinion.
Thanks again
Hey brother thank you for finding us!! Ha ha the LTWOO groupset video will be out Tuesday so you may otta check in, but man I don't think you can run a boost on the back??? I'm not sure man we lucked out and found the 9mm rear so??? Maybe?? But please let me know now the rear tire width I would say max a 2.3. We got some but haven't tried to see if they fit just yet. Going to be trying aone specialized 2.2s but I measured and it looks like a 2.3 max. Thanks again man and like I said please let is know how it goes👍
Enjoy the video I wish I would’ve saw you drink all three drinks love the helmet it’s Fox 🦊 looking forward to your next video and on the giveaway looking forward what you choose I’ve been putting in lotta upgrades to my GT more than the bike is worth but is my only bike enjoy your video huge fan love your work
Man Sam I know you love us man and we love the hell out of your support brother, always watching,commenting and giving me a hard time!!! Much Love Sam and that helmet is bad*ss! Thanks man and looking forward to the giveway!
i know you've bought enough forks but you should try the bucklos coil forks off amazon for $99 with rebound too!
I've seen those man, get this! In a couple of weeks we got the bucklos going on a fragment!! $110 air fork. Checkout last weeks tuesday video on the Taff, it's pretty damn cheap man!
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I just put these on my gt

Which one? Aggressor Pro or Taff?
You should flip a coin for the hand guards lol im sure we'd be stoked to win either pair! P.P. Dangler hahaha
LOL, man that is a good idea but really we may just do a double giveway:) That would be cool as hell! Thanks again Timbo!
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS sweet cant wait
Looks great to put a rock shox on that bike! That’s a huge upgrade
Heck yeah man, such a huge upgrade! Cant wait to try the new x fusion 29ers on it. They are like $100 more.
I want the ones with the bash guards. Sorry for the late view.
No problem brother, thanks for voting LOL, when you win I will be sure to send the correct ones!! But seriously we will figure out the giveway man! Thanks for being apart of the 4000SUBBERS Allen!
Too bad I’m at work. I’ll have to take shots of coffee ☕️
Yes please don't do shots at work🤣🤣 Unless it's coffee😂
That fox helmet is sweet. Congrats bro!
Thanks man! It is nice that's for sure.

Hell yeah man,thanks and we are talking now about a double giveway:) more chances to win? :) Thanks Tim
both, with and without!
Will do MTB ALEX!!!! Double Giveway:)
Thanks for the how to videos. They help as most of us are noobs
Man you don't know how much I appreciate that comment brother, so thank you! Very cool brother💯
Can you have reviews on manitou machete
Man its a little much$ So unless it drops a little maybe, but dude it is so hard to think of riding on a fork with a backwards crown!!!LOL I dont know if I could do it??
Glad I poured some Elijah Craig for this! That is a pretty cool "toy" from ppdangler.
That's what I'm talking about right there🥃
Great review Sir
Thank you👍
Awesome. Set up the rockshox recon 130mm on my GT avalanche. They are awesome. Especially on these San Diego trails. You can check them out on my MTB climax you tube channel. Holla holla holla. Drink that pickle soda for the tube lol
HA HA loved it man, thanks MTB Climax!! ENJOYED:)
hahah an "adult toy" that had me going, enjoy guys!
Hey man thanks again! We hope you got a little love from the #wolfticknation haha.
This may be the fork I end up with for my Taff.
Man it is such a smooth and wonderful ride. They are sweet:) Maybe watch Fridays video?? NEW 29er FORK and 27.5 FORK!!!! May change your mind brother lol Thanks Carlos
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I’ll definitely be watching.
For the giveaway...
I’ll take the bike or the helmet 🚴🏽♂️
But seriously I think either Geo would be a great giveaway!
Im sure you would!!! HA HA:) We will see on the givewya man and hope it goes smooth, thanks Brandon
If there is a give away it would be better the version with the handguard. Not the original one.
Gotcha! Thanks man, they are pretty cool guards from some awesome guys! Thanks
Saving my money on the chinese forks, goin for the rockshox. Sold. 👊
HA HA Thats my GUY!!!!:) Hold on there big chief, just watch Fridays video first before you get all excited ha ha, we will be showing off 2 new forks 29er and 27.5:)
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS lol no rush here, plenty of other things I have to pay first
Good man, Imma show them off and then we will focus on them mainly for the GT portion!!
i wish you would try gravel bikes too in your channel... i saw poseidon bikes are really cool ones from california check out there website though.
Hay man we will check it out, been talking about it and may be a future build, I have a road bike I am thinking about transforming! Its already got front and rear disc brakes, a little tweaks here and there and it may be something?? Thanks Shadow:) we will check into it right now:)
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS thanks man! i am buying a poseidon the redwood gravel bike that they had... from my gt to gravel bike? hmmm... we will see... looking forward for that episode too! 😉
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS regarding about upgrading your road bike to gravel bike? might be a good idea and giving a little bit of clearance of the wheel would be good. the one i got on poseidon bikes was the redwood had a 2.5 tire clearance also could use a 29er on it might have to show you when that comes.
Thanks man, I sent them an email last night:) Maybe maybe not? IDK but man thanks for introducing them to us, they have some really sweet bikes and for under $1000 thats very sweet as well!
Hmmm... 2.5? I seen one that had up to a 2.1 but a 2.5 would be cool as hell man, do me a favor. Send me a link man, thanks again Shadow and hit me up when you get it!!!!
Ill have a shot of pepsi as im not old enough😂 but love the vids keep it up 🇬🇧
HA HA we will take it man LOL sure hope you didnt get a caffeine hangover!! Much Love man and thanks for drinking responsible😂😂😂
How'd I miss this!?!?!?!
GET YOUR 💩 TOGETHER!!
Got over half way so a small zip of the soda 🤔😆
😶😶😶😞
WOLFMAN YOU NEED TO LAY OFF THAT PABST BLUE CHICKEN!!! LOL
What the Hell? I have been!!! NO CHICKEN noises this video thank you!! !!!PA-COCK!!!
Welcome to riding your first real fork. If you are blown away by a recon which is a fork that most enthusiast consider to be a fork that just works. You will be blown away when you get to a lyrik ultimate 😉
HA HA thanks for the warm welcome! Tell me what you think about tomorrows fork!! We got two but the 29" looks and feels like a monster:)
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS sure thing.
I vote get viewers to send in something (videos of them riding, pictures of their bikes, cool views from trails etc.) and you rate the best one and they win the giveaway.
Edit: with all the parts you guys got lying around now, I think its time to buy a mid-high tier frame and put a bike together on it.
Hey vexis already have been gathering pics form viewers/subbers and will be doing something like that soon:) But if we got a mid tier frame would have to throw some money at it man, couldent put used not good stuff on it, maybe in a pinch but that would hurt to do so:):)
How to videos are actually the most popular
Maybe for some, but not for us. Our audience is more about testing out stuff and us bickering😜😂
How to videos aren’t that popular.Its the same thing but with photography videos and when I put Gt aggressor pro in the title it gets way more views
That's right! Someones been paying attention to how this whole thing works😉 Good, now we don't have to feel guilty for you watching during school time🤣😜. Thanks man
I recently finished my build on my 2005 GT aggressor and I also went with the RockShox forks but I have the recon silver TK and they are amazing. My next build is my 2020 aggressor pro. Like always I’m loving the channel 👍🏻👍🏻
Hell yeah brother! That is too cool man, would love to see a pic of it? email me. Thanks dude:)
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I emailed some pics 👍🏻
@@tork62077 Got them👍
Some of us get baked.
😂😂😌😌😌 LOL that is not the first time I heard that!!!! LMFAO very funny brother:) ENJOY
Man I was hoping for one of them nasty sodas.. I watched the video 5 times
Man we were bummed out also. The official count at the 24hr mark was 868. Thanks for doing your part, but unfortunately not everyone else did the same. There will be more chances in the near future though. Thanks again man.
Future rockshoxs for the GT????
Good guess, but no haha.
My guy, I can help you fellas with the giveaway. Just give it all to me! Problem solved 😂
But on a serious note, personally I’d be cool with either option on the giveaway!
Hey brother! Long time no hear:) HA HA hope you are doing good man and thanks for the input on the giveaway!! Thanks for watching Tyler and hope you watch Tomorrows VID!!! Gonna be some sweet forks man and drivetrain:) Later bud
The GT getting a rock shock
LOL IDK!!! Wait and see man:)
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS Are you going to clip-in instead of flat petals on the GT
HELL NO!!! Dude that takes way to much coordination:)
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS GT getting a Fox 🦊
HA HA HA!!! 😉
Manito Markor possibly? 😉
?????hmmmmmm....😎
And guy I bet after this week y’all will be a 4k
DUDE I KNOW!!!! Very cool, almost there ha ha ha
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS so glad to have see y’all grow so fast I remember when y’all were at 200 subs like wow
Like Wow is correct:) the grind man is real!
Try to put gopro on downtube to record a fork
Looked at a large clamp last night man, a little expensive but agree. When it comes to mounts go pro is nice to have and not a knockoff. But will do man. Thanks for the constructive criticism.
My guess. Rockshox Judy TK for the GTAP! Message me if I’m right so I know in advance 😂
Well sorry, you are wrong haha.
do you think the Recon is better compared to the Judy TK?
I think it is based n the stanchions being 32mm as opposed to 28mm. But remember they are 2 different sizes
DUDE..... I AM NOT A FAN OF THE OPEN FACE HELMETS, BUT THAT FOX HELMET IS BAD A$$ SEXY!!!! PP DANGLER!! 😆😆 THAT IS A FANTASTIC USER NAME !!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
Very cool totally! The names alright too;)
Dude you can't turn this one into a drinking game all I have besides me is a jar shine if I die this is on you lol I kid I kid. But for real
LOL Just wait till a friday night brother and DRINK RESPONSIBLY:) WOLFTICK VIDEOS STYLE

Hell yeah!!!! #WOLFTICKNATION-glad you enjoyed brother! Hope you enjoy the new ride CONGRATS!!!! Thats exciting🙌🙌🙌
PeePee Dangler sent you an adult toy?! HAHAHAHA
aaahhhh checked out his channel... bad ass. You should do a review
Lol!!! Ha ha ha👍👍👍 thanks for keeping it clean, a little used but we will take it😂
Like we said man, would be cool to do so but....youtube frowns upon " adult toys" when it comes to ads and sponsors.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I was cracking up on this part of the video and my gears were turning trying to figure out what this adult toy was lol. I lived in NJ so my life till last year and believe it or not... Those adult toys are illegal in NJ... (NJ sucks... It's illegal to pump your own gas...). I'm in Florida now and maybe I'll check them out... I can see it being fun
😂😂😂😂 You are too Fuck*ing hilarious man!!!! Very clever as well:)
I know you like 👍 the rockshock
LOL!!! The RockShox are SWEEEEEET!!! You called it man:)
Take the “adult toy” with you down the trails and test it out....😂😂😂😂😂😂🔫🔫🔫🔫
😂😂😂😐That would mean I would have to stop, switchup camera angles and make sure I go out fully loaded and not half cocked!!!😂😂😂😂If I do hope nobody sees me, you can get arrested for stuff like that here in Arkansas!!!LOL IDK maybe bring a cousin along???😂😂😂😂😆😆
Hey what's up? Very good video...I bought you a cup of coffee but I forgot to include my address for a possible sticker.. please give me your email address so I can send it to you.
You can shout me out..
I have those same cranks they are great
Will do POE! Saw the BEER purchase and will give you a shout for sure man! And will be sending you a sticker as well:) -Upchucko-
Don't wanna be rude to Rockshox, but this fork is dogshite, it is so sticky it is insane. You can see on the uppers that there is oil inside, but damn I am low weight rider and when I lean on the front of my bike gently the fork will not move by a milimeter, and that is on almost 30% of sag. Even my 30 Silver perfoms better than this fork. Yeah low speed compression is nice to have, but on the other hand if you ride trails it is kinda pointless, unless you are hitting them turns so front doesn't dive. It is kinda ok when it finally moves further, but small bump sensitivity is basically non existent since you have to put some force to initiate it. It can be extended to 150mm which is a plus, but bottomless tokens are not an option, so I would recommend just paying a little bit more for gold 35, or even revelation if you are semi-advanced rider. Maybe later down the road the seals will wear of a little so it doesn't stick so hard, but 1st impression is: dayum dis fork trash.
🤣🤣 Love the comment and review man, thanks for the laughs and hopefully it will loosen a little for ya 😀
