Can the Vitus Nucleus become a hardcore Enduro hardtail? How long of travel before the bike becomes unrideable?

@s14tat 3 года назад

Keep it at 160mm travel. Looks like a mini nukeproof scout now. The wheelbase and angles are pretty dang similar. But I had ridden a nucleus and that frame is stiff. If you can get your hands on a scout or ragley bike, they ride noticably softer and the Ragley can actually do drops to flat and not hurt your ankles

@EvansMTBSaga 3 года назад

Yeah its crazy how a budget frame is made to be so solid and stiff! You always give great bike advice, I appreciate it.

@jospeh3299 3 года назад

@@EvansMTBSaga Go for the 160mm debonair B1 rockshox spring for yari and lyrik. This gen of air springs has about 7-8mm of extra sag which means your bike will have slightly more than 150mm of travel, a good middle ground imo. Also this generation of springs is known to be somewhat better than the later versions, despite the slightly less-than-advertised travel. Here is the manufacturer reference number for the air spring in question: 00.4019.932.002

If it climbs good for you, I would leave it at 160mm. I prefer 140mm myself but it seems your terrian is much more aggressive!

@Digital_Gangster 3 года назад

I ride a fs but I'd think that on a hardtail a longer fork is really diminishing returns. With modern short chainstays and long reach and ETT, your weight is more concentrated at the rear wheel of the bike than it used to be with old geometry. Thus making the fork less "active"

@@EvansMTBSaga Sweet! Where else in AZ do you like to ride? I've never made it out to FINS but it looks sick. Im used to riding around browns ranch in Scottsdale.

@@edwardbreck6924 The only other spot I go to is Estrella Competitive Loop, going there tomorrow actually! It's decent out west, but not the best. Decent enough to stick on this side. I haven't ventured out east yet. I did SoMo once and Pyramid Peak once also, both were also decent to me. I heard Browns is cool, I think they hold the XC race there right?

@edwardbreck6924 3 года назад

@@EvansMTBSaga I honestly don’t know about the race. I have heard that south mountain has some gnarly trails.
