I have set up this channel for people new to, or experienced, in mountain biking. I will review MTB products, show local trail systems, and give my opinions/ experience as I progress my own MTB journey. For all product review requests please email mjrpaq@gmail.com and I will respond as soon as possible, thank you.

got the helmet. Not mentioned in your video is that the dial adjustment carriage has 5 points of adjustment. The who dial carriage has a center attachment that can be moved (2 positions) . The attachment uses the same click in and out as the cheek pieces. The the carriage is attached on both side areas. These have 3 points of adjustment to make the helmet bigger or smaller. It comes in the center position of the three positions. Last, make sure the cheek pads are on the correct side. If reversed, they will get on your ears.
I recently purchased my first ebike, the Merida E-ONE Sixty 500, it comes with this fork. I will lower my expectations, as long as it works and lasts, for now it is enough, in about 4 more years I will see if it is worth upgrading. I hope it is the 2022 version and does not have the problems of the previous version.
I replaced my 30t chain ring on my Sram X01 crank. Drive side 8mm extractor bolt like your crank. When installing the crank and applying 54nm of torque, the crank will not move! Any suggestions?
Does the rebound damping adjustor actually click on your RockShox 35 Gold fork? Mine (on a new bike) does not, so I'm trying to figure out if it is faulty or they were just too cheap to include clicks. (I posted this comment previously but it didn't appear.)
GX is very good. Very reliable. I’ve owned GX, X01, and XX1. The latter 2 have a more pronounced tactile feel on clicks but really, GX is more than good enough.
Ehm ... you advised to clean the calipers/pistons in the caliper with oil. And you didnt advise to clean the calipers and the pistons with a brake cleaner afterwards. I'd correct that part if i were you. The oil part is completely unneccessary and life/limb/bone-dangerous. Just use a proper, inexpensive brake cleaner.
@@mikemtbs make sense.... i'm 160lbs and working on set the same fork (F36 factory 2021 vvc) @ 160mm travel , and i agree with you about lsr ( i read online that increase lsr increase compression, so the trick for less harsh feeling is to use lsr as open as you can) , so i'm : 75/77 psi , one token, lsr 12 / hsr 5 / lsc 12 / hsc fully open or just one clik from wide open. This is where i landed for the moment... not sure it's perfect yet I even tryed lsr all open and compensate a bit with more lsc....and seems to work... very less harsh feeling on the small/medium chatter
@@mikemtbs just the last things, do you remains on the last setting posted in the video or, because the video is 6mth old, you have done some others changes?
Hello. Thanks for a great video. I have a question. Is there a fork that would work or feel a decent amount better and still be somewhat affordable? I have a Roscoe 9 hardtail.
