I swapped the same shaft on my 36 last year and it was a super easy upgrade. If someone’s after more travel, this is a solid way to go without breaking the bank. Surprised it hasn’t gone already.

I’ve looked into this before and yeah, finding a “130mm rigid fork” isn’t really a thing since rigid forks don’t come in travel sizes. You just match axle-to-crown length so the geometry stays close to your current setup. Easiest/cheapest option is usually a rigid MTB carbon or steel fork with...

I just wanted to share my own experience because your post hit close to home. My cat went through something similar and it was heartbreaking. What helped me cope was eventually getting a new companion. To make sure I did things the right way, I reached out to Wellness Wag for an ESA letter, and...

The Search paint job really said, "You’ll forget me the second you park me.' The Wolvy though? That’s the bike you bring to family dinners

When Mama Nature decides to hit hard mode, you know it’s time to put the lawn chairs inside and cancel all beach hero fantasies

I went through subluxation and eventually developed a frozen shoulder because I got too nervous about moving my arm. This clinic helped me regain trust in my shoulder, not just brute strength. If you're in Pennsylvania, I recommend going to them.

if Felix needs a mechanic around Grafton Burners, I can recommend a couple of spots nearby that are pretty solid and not too pricey.

I haven’t done it myself, but I’ve heard pressing a new steerer into a Fox fork needs to be done carefully to avoid damaging the fork. Using the right press tool and making sure everything’s aligned is key.

Coming back to the discussion: if that really is asbestos, the risks are serious. According to the Mesothelioma Lawsuit page, exposure to asbestos can lead to severe lung diseases and even cancer. It’s better to call the hazmat team than to risk a problem that can affect your health for life.

I’ve heard good things about MyUS and Shipitto—they basically give you a local address in the US or UK, so you can ship your stuff there first, then they forward it to you, often cheaper than direct international shipping. Just watch out for their fees and make sure to compare total costs.

If you want something low-maintenance and reliable, I’d look at hubs from Shimano or DT Swiss. Shimano’s Deore or SLX hubs are pretty solid, easy to service, and don’t need weird specialty tools. DT Swiss hubs use star ratchets and are known for being durable and fairly easy to work on too.

I recently read something that stuck with me – it seems that ultra-processed foods not only make it harder to stick to a diet, but can also lead to serious health issues. Here are some details about the lawsuits filed because of them

For your first idea, running an 11-speed Shimano XT cassette on a 10-speed hub is usually not recommended because the freehub body might be too short for 11-speed cassettes, some hubs just won’t fit without swapping the freehub. Also, SRAM and Shimano shifters and derailleurs have different...

Sometimes having that extra boost from an ebike takes away a bit of the challenge and the rush you get from pushing yourself. Sounds like going back to a regular bike helped him find the fun and motivation again. I guess for some, the workout and feeling properly tired is part of what makes...

The PFAS-free shift definitely isn’t just hype, it’s picking up speed partly because of what’s going on legally and medically behind the scenes. If you haven’t seen it, there’s a summary of PFAS-related recalls and warnings here that sheds light on just how broad this issue really is...

I was in a similar spot not long ago, pain was messing with everything, couldn’t sleep right, couldn’t lift my arm past shoulder height, and I was getting that same “might need surgery, might not” back and forth. Tried physio, had some decent days, but every little setback felt like starting...

Not sure on Geelong but their is the 4x track and jumps at Anglesea bike park and I believe their is a jumps set up in Torquay as well. Cheers, Jarrod

Thanks for posting, I am in the same boat after starting riding again at 40. Used to ride BMX and could jump well on double, spine, bowl etc but have been struggling with height on my endure evo on some of the hits on the trails I ride. This has given me a few different things to try. Cheers...
