Great entry level full suspension man. Built durable. The main differences between that model and the higher end builds are heavier (but durable) components and basic suspension. Both of which can be upgraded down the road if you want to.

It's the arrogance you guys feel the need to express. Not WSX or E bikes, it's you.

5/10/2023 8:35am Nope, I meant MTB's. I think it was a goofy question though because now that I think about it, one or two slots in any direction on a spin bike is enough to light up your muscles in a way that is not sustainable so I feel like size is something critical actually.

Proper frame and crank size is super important if you plan on miling it out.

Specialized Stumpjumper. Look no further. Has to be one of the best all around bikes on the market right now. Climbs well, descends well, reasonably light weight depending on the build you get, and Specialized generally gets you more bang for your buck build wise because of their buying power. 130mm of rear suspension and 140mm of front travel is a touch above modern XC bikes and a touch below some of the bigger, more dh focused enduro bikes. Great for all around riding and can hold it's own at the bike park depending on the pilot.. I know Specialized...

I second the stump jumper recommendation for a good all a rounder for the semi flat lands but I’d go with the EVO version.

5/10/2023 6:33am is sizing a big deal? I'm naive, but it sounds like you wouldnt just pick up "any size" bike if you're 6'3" (like me)?

5/10/2023 6:31am never sure where to ask this: I want to get into mtb. We dont really have downhill here in kentucky but I want a trail bike that I can ride a ways out to a trail, "unlock" the suspension, and go ride. Any suggestions on bikes? Price ranges? Seems like you can spend your retirement on a bike but I...

If the pros raced with a big turd on the top of their helmet, it would smell like a sewer treatment plant at the next local race. Everyone will try to be like their heros.

5/9/2023 10:49am Have any of you used an ACF bar back to back or at least on the same bike as an Evo? I keep feeling like I want to give the ACF a shot.

If you really want to go to OCD levels, you can get steel shims from McMaster Carr in .10mm thickness and shim the engine mounts and swing arm interfaces so that you don’t add any residual stress when clamping up the fasteners. You wouldn’t believe the axial clearance between the engine cases/swing arm bearings/frame. When you tighten the swing arm nut, you can actually see the frame bend inward as everything clamps together. It amazes me how “sensitive” riders can tell a difference between after market engine mounts but they can’t feel the added stress when you deform the frame...

The proper sequence for torquing the engine fasteners are: 1) swing arm axle nut (74 ft-lbs) 2) lower engine mount (44.5 ft-lbs) 3) forward engine mount (44.5 ft-lbs) 4) qty 2 top head stay torx bolts (18 ft-lbs) 5) lower head stay torx bolt (18 ft-lbs)

5/9/2023 10:34am Man, sure is a shame we keep swapping in "2006 Technology" into our 2024 ktms huh? At least my 2006 tech doesnt stall when i hammer the throttle like my 2022 GasGas does either. Silly....

5/9/2023 10:32am You can do significantly better than that I think. Check across state lines and ditch the tax. It just goes to bottom surgeries for the navy anyways lol.
