@stormfighter117 Its a great bike. Ive had mine since it was brand new and still beat the hell out of it. It actually still pedals compared to most of the downhill bikes now. I like the geometry and its super strong. I weigh 210lbs and Ive hit many road gaps/big drops up in Hood River Oregon and have yet to have a problem.
@ridernofear just changed the wheels, fork, rear shock, crank, pedals, rear derailleur, new chain guide, new headset, tubeless tires, integreted stem and thats pretty much it.
See if you can flip the shock the other way, with the reservoir on the bottom. That way the shock body will be moving instead of the air sleeve/reservoir. That's how it was designed to work. It helps because then there is less unsprung weight( from the reservoir) and it will help with small bump sensitivity because the shock can move more easily. It may not make a huge difference, but it may make your ride a tad smoother. Anyway nice bike
Stinky's a really good bikes. not the best! but there really isnt such a thing as "worlds greatest bike" cause it all comes down to preferance. But they are good bikes for the kids that work and buy their bike then the kids that have their parents buy all their shit!
I got a Stinky Deluxe 06 i made mine a little bit more Freeride with a RockShox Todem Fox DHX 5.0 with a Titan Spring Sram X.0 Shifters Selfmade Wheels Complite White *g* and more stuff you can take a look at my Videos
wow , you must love posing , what the hell does tunning out mean ? , its called upgrading ya clack , i bet your just one of those people who pose with their " plush kona stinky "
dude, just to let you know, first i'm french so i have some trouble with my english and second the stinky is just a transition frame, i'll change it as soon as my local bike shop receives it. by the way you got to approve that it looks pretty nice.
lol take out all the air then hold in the the air thing, compress the fork and let go and it shud be better. i run with no air in mine, lol. the things shit nyways, but im like 100 lbs
you put a lot of work and money into the bike, but it really doesnt show. i love the kona stinky but the 04' was just not a great year. i got a 2005 with
