    Reverb B1 crapping out at 1yr. PNW at top of list. 👍

      Yah the reverb is the worst dropper I have ever used! Bought it new and it became useless about a week later. got sticky and even after a full service it still just stopped working completely and had to throw it out bucause SRAM wouldn't take it back

    I was afraid of weight until I realized it doesn't hurt my kind of riding. I ride dh casing tires now and thinking about cush core. Feeling the burn on those hills is not a bad thing when I have more fun/opportunities to shred.

    Love the channel and loved (and miss) the riding in Bellingham. Is Sully still living at the base of Lake Padden trails? Grew up in White Rock and Lake Padden was our go-to for xc loops. Mind you this was 30 years ago. Morning espresso shots at Sullys and then up the fire road to the top. Great times. Keep up the good work! Hope you had a good time in Whis

    Great video! Really helped me out. Ironically the deciding factor for me was exactly what you called into question: I need that extra bit shorter insertion length :D
    Cuz what use is a 200mm dropper if I can't insert it all the way and end up having to shorten the travel down to 195 or 190? -> I am actually a bit annoyed that this isn't a standard measurment that they tell you about in the specs... some companies don't even list it on their own websites.
    Weight saving is also very nice: Normaly you have to pay about 1€/gram, so that's cheap weight savings.

    I have a question, this doesn't have anything to do with this video but i figured you may know the answer, I just watched a video stating that you can save weight by removing the centrifugal clutch weights from behind the Cassette, is this true? it came from a channel that in my opinion is pretty knowledgeable. Would their be any repercussions from doing this? Thanks

      Due to dealer agreements, Fox dealers can not ship Fox products outside of their country. Unfortunately, you will need to source your Fox parts from a dealer within your home country.

    Hey one year ago you tested the Marzochi bomber cr. Currently i am planing to buy a new coil shock and cant decide between the Marzochi and the RS Super Deluxe coil ultimate. What do you think is better in performance?

    • @TheLostCo
      @TheLostCo  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The Super Deluxe has a better damper, but more adjustments. If you take the time set up the Super Deluxe, it will perform quite nicely. Please give us a call or shoot us an email and we can help you further!

    I have an 11 speed Shimano drivetrain and I’m looking to convert to 12 speed, are there any ways to do this without completely replacing the drivetrain?

    • @dtolios
      @dtolios 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Either stick with M5100 11 sp that practically has the range of the 12s cassettes (11-51T) or use a SunRace cassette with any combination of M6100/7100/8100 RD & shifter. This way you don't need to replace your rear hub or wheel, as all 12s Shimano Cassettes will require a micro spline rear hub.
