I agree, wouldn't the steel have to surpass its yield strength and start to actually deform in order to change the way it flexes at all? To me at that point the frame would have failed if it's reaching that level of strain and starts to plastically deform. With aluminum it makes more sense because that point between elastic and...

Pretty sure this was Southwick. The same place showing insane hate towards Stewart for being black, then Musquin getting flipped off. Then Red Bud had some real winners giving Musquin the finger right to his face while he was shaking hands with fans on the fence. I just don't get the true idiotic hate people display at times.

Man... I never thought I'd wish to live in california lol. that's something special. I was already thinking about coil vs air and whether or not it would matter. I have already promised this will not be like MX and that I would not spend a lot on parts etc. We'll see how long that lasts.

I spoke with YT a little yesterday and they recommended the Jeffsy 100% without reservation based on the information I gave them which mirros what is posted in here. To be honest, I aspire and desire to ride more enduro and gravity based stuff but it's just not hugely accessible here whatsoever. So it does not make sense to gear my equipment that way. This bike is supposed to be a time saver and create opportunities not more trips to bike destinations.

I think the main thing to consider other than the suspension travel is the frame geometry. Yeah, you can lock out the suspension on an enduro, but if the geometry is more XC oriented then it will still climb or go long distances better. You still get a lot of travel out of the jeffsy and will be able to...

I just bought a new YT Capra. Fairly decent pricing compared to other brands and you get good components. I tried a hardtail and found myself really wanting a full suspension right away because IMO it feels way more like riding a dirt bike. I also feel like I've gotten better at moto from riding my mountain bike because you're...

This isn't worth discussion. If you can't see the difference between the occasional aggressive pass with a lot on the line and building a career off of being a piece of shit rider who scrapes by on bullshit riding..... then I can't help you... Nobody with an actual clue defends friese. The bounty shit last year would have ended his career if any of these series were ran with competence.

The issue with Friese is death by a thousand paper cuts. any one of his incidents can be explained away or compared to the “old school” era and how everyone now is soft. but when you add them all together, it’s bad lol

Just for fun and because I'd like to hear some stories. Question: What's the best MX/offroad bike you've EVER ridden and why? For me: 2008 CRF450R Why? Among all mx and offroad bikes I've ever ridden or owned (FI and carb'd), all the way back to 1980 CR80 models, and the 2005-2007 CRF450Rs are my favorites. This is because I find them extremely well balanced and versatile, forgiving of rider mistakes, the suspension is excellent after a revalve, they have super usable and powerful motors, they are highly reliable, and have outstanding build quality. I choose the 2008 model because...

There are some very sweet pictures of details of the bike here https://enduro21.com/en/bikes/latest/honda-cr-electric-proto-detail-ima… I think there is just one close up pic that is not from the bike, and I like the Mugen sticker on the front fender. They guesstimate the weight around 130 kg. That was damn impressive, now I want to see this prototype racing against the Varg and 450s.

Sounds like the intake doctors may have misheard you when you said you crashed on your Mountain Bike. They are def trying to get out of paying. some policies don’t pay if it’s an organized race - practice is ok. Some don’t pay if your on a purpose built track. Some don’t pay if you’re on a MC….period. I’ve never said I was on my motorcycle except if I got carted in on a gurney. As far as all the urgent care X-ray tech and ER nurses in my area know I am very clumsy on my skateboard and mtb...
