It hurts to lose a kom I know much nashing of teeth wringing of hands with incredulity. Obviously your nemesis is not human. That and a battery e assist will do the trick. I’m thinking late night motorcycle. When a two year plus kom falls to a rider whom rides little with no metrics it’s time...

I’m tipping metal fatigue will occur long after I’ve fatigued. Emotional tipping lol.

Yes I love mine too. Great bike. My swing arm , tiller steerer and front fork are steel the rest is aluminium. Can’t seem to upload a pic never mind. Edit hurricane fitted with air dnm luxury.

Hi dan. I meant it would be really nice to see a pic of the steel hurricane. I truly did not for a sec doubt you. Nice colour. Can you do a whole bike reveal. Be interesting to compare. What year was it made.

Learning to lose a kom to e assisted bikes is a re-education. Of course my motorcycle is a calling. Stravasshole why do I care

Slim the DNM makes do with 35 mm in the 165 mm size and 30 mm in the 150 mm size. It’s performance is better over small bumps compared to the kind shock . The kind shock is not bad but the DNM is noticeably plusher. The DNM reacts to small frequency imperfections where the kind shock is not...

My hurricane is 2005 vintage aluminium Shimano XT And sram xo . It’s nice but I still yearn for a folding grasshopper. Great bikes. Cannot understand challenge fading away given their cycling territory. Oh well. Tough selling bent bikes anywhere. Thankful that hpv and cruzbike exist.

Steel hurricane be nice to see a picture Air shock is good but best if you stump up

Dear slim take your size 12 sth Aussie foot from your mouth and place it up your real man back passage. I always read instructions even the pathetic kind shock excuse for instructions. A fox float rp23 is not a cheap kind shock and suffers less stiction issues. They both use air medium but...

I’m nearly three years in my new house where the view and fishing is a dream but the roads are pretty poor. My terrible road concession to the vendetta v 20 was 28 mm tyres 70 psi and yoleo 50 mm carbon wheels. Plus an inner tube in the head rest. Comfy as. Almost as comfy as suspended...

See people retrofitting kind air shock so thought I’d do a comparison even though my suspended bent is a challenge hurricane with a 165 mm 6.5 “ eye to eye fork. Warning opinion to follow. The shocks. DNM DV 22 weight manufacturers claimed .2 kg .44 lbs no way mine is anywhere near that. ...

Once I rode in wind so strong I was in 39f 42r and pushing over 250 watts to move forward. I stopped and walked the vendetta over 10 klm. This happened in south Australia near port Augusta. But wow when I got the tailwind it felt equally ridiculous. From tears to smiles. Of course everyone...

Probably not much you can do about it. If you are comfortable on your seat don’t change anything just ride more. Stop and massage. Eventually you will suffer less. If not quite comfy then perhaps try add to or adjust your seat. Though I doubt you will find relief. Ride more the left buttock...

Rojo everyone is different. I take two weeks before similar numbers appear from platform to platform. Albeit I do not ride multiple platforms usually in one day. You must not need any adaption phase. Perhaps it’s age related phenomena after all most of us ain’t tin lids anymore. Lol...

Actually using a power meter I do see an effect on heart rate Typically my heart rate differs by 10 bpm going back to df plus and from df to vendetta negative.after two weeks everything is back within margin. Using a baseline of 220 watts hr 140bpm. Adaptation. Obviously heart rate can be...

Set of 50 mm yoleo discs. 28 spoke 2018 model . Recommend cheap and effective good quality. Set of enve 6:7 24 spoke 2013 ...... expensive faster just but affected by side winds badly unlike the yoleo which cope well. Old tech. So ........meh.

Yes fugly paint and brifters cable route suspect.
