Yup, it's called air shocks. I spent RM3.5k on the frame and front suspension. Bought a few more 2nd hand parts to complete the built like the wheels. Total costs was around RM4.1k, but the drivetrain was migrated over.
Nice!!! How many pounds do you figure she weighs? Sure would like to ride it! I've never rode a full suspension bike before.
Mono-shock? Had one in the 80s (*goes to look for pics...*) as best I can tell it was one of these: Huffy
One of them is the trail with a tiny crossing and technical entrance and exit. I have heard of people falling into the stream here! I bought some expensive tyres online (Continental Mountain King 2), and they were disappointing. After just 5 rides, many of the knobs went missing. So I bought a replacement tyre Kenda Nevegal, which is fantastic for my riding style.
Combination of both I guess. I never have problem with other tyres, and some of them have even softer compound. Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk
I think I'd pass that crossing... I took a fall on some wet leaves, front tire went out from under me and I went right down. I think I broke a rib and my sholder still hurts months later... Sucks to get old. I like my Maxxis tires. Check that brand out man.
Yeah, I bought Maxxis Crossmark for my wife's bike. It's a good cross country tyre with shallow threads, good for road surfaces too. Wow...sounds like a bad fall. Happened recently?
Yeah, Just a simple turn and the next thing going down. I knew what was up and tried to dive off the bike but still fell right on top of it.
No protection at all. Elbow got skined good, fell on the bars. And the sharp pedals they got me too...
