I took my brand new 2025 Rockshox ZEB to Beech Mtn for the ultimate test on how good they actually are.... And I was blown away Instagram @Downhill_Jake
sickk dude! i was at beech a couple weeks ago and it started pouring! i was slipping and sliding down all the mountain. i’ve never seen anyone hit that drop on black mamba 😂 keep shredding 🤟
i just got a '24 zeb - 180mm usually hard to trust the RS "trailhead" app, but i punched in my recommended spec on this fork, and hit the jackpot. the first 20mm of travel just FLOATS with those buttercups. combined with a new VEE tire "attack HPL" it's mtb heaven. sit down Kryptotal, the Attack HPL is the new king.
No external mic this is audio straight from my gopro. I do have the wind noise set to off so the camera always records audio in stereo mode. This drastically improves audio quality but you have to have some sort of wind muff or the audio gets blown out.
Have you tried the charger 3 Zeb? I found the charger 3 wasn't as nice on the hands as a Fox 38 for park days, but read the 3.1 has helped with hand fatigue. Biggest concern is for all day park laps.
What is the zeb model you are using in your ebike and how doest the new model compare to that fork? Also have you felt any spiking in very high speed hits as I have understood that was a problem with the original charger 3?
I have the charger 3 on my ebike and there is a noticable difference in sensitivity when going to the charger 3.1. small bumps practically disappear. I haven't noticed any spiking on high speed hits yet on either fork 🤷♂️
Does Beech and Sugar allow Ebikes? I can't find anything about it. I have a trial bike I normally take but I just bought an enduro decoy and was wanting to maybe take it.
@@MikeH-qs4os I've ridden my decoy at beech numerous times so I know it's not an issue there. Can't speak about sugar, there's nothing about ebikes posted anywhere so I don't see why you couldn't. You can always message sugar MTN bike park on Instagram and be sure 🤙
I'm 172ish lbs fully kitted up with 170mm travel. I got air pressure set to 61psi and I believe it came with one token installed from factory, haven't changed tokens up from stock spec
My bike sucks. I love your bike! It’s so nice! Are there any bikes you would recommend? It my dream to have a bike like yours 😂 Sick vid the zebs look good
@@JamesM-T theoretically, the 38 has an additional rebound setting with the low speed and high speed rebound. The Zeb only has one rebound setting. But the experience I've had puts the Zeb on top. It could also just be riding style and preference 🤙
