@Petegrin1 have you ever ridden DH ? do you even know what the difference between a Boxxer Wc, RC and Team is? what the average travel amount is on a DH bike? how to adjust your rebound/ spring preload? once you have googled all these thing you can come and tell me i have no idea what I'm talking about i will pause for a second and continue laughing, thank you for you ridiculous comment.
What you wanna do is find a bike with wheels. 2 is prefered, but not required. Next, make sure it has pedals, gears, and a chain. Again, not required, but it makes it easier to get places. Now make sure it has handlebars. Without these, you'll probably fall off a cliff. And most importantly, brakes. Stopping is good. Now that you have this information, go spend between 2,000-5,000 dollars on a bike with a really popular brand name. Good luck.
This has nothing to do with how to buy one. He just poorly explains what a DH bike is. "less suspension" I it's called travel. Also a single pivot marin with monsterT forks, has to be one of the more stupid DH bikes around.
That bike has double crown, triple crown does exist tho. A triple crown fork goes higher that the handlebars, you don't find it on dh bikes tho, sometimes on motorcross bikes, there pretty rare tho
how do you measure the travel of front suspension? is it the distance to which it can pump in? one more question, can i put about 130-140 mm travel front suspension on a full suspensiopn bike? one thing,my bike cant mount disc brake so i will have to buy a fork that can mount disk brake in front but i wont put one in back. can i possibly do that without harming my self? i am not a dh biker. i want to try dh biking but i dont know if i can and i dont know anywhere here in manila.help
@insomia1925 i think to measure your travel measure the stanchions, 130-140 mm travel fork will be fine as for the disk brake you can put a pretty strong one one the front and a good old skoool regular brake on the back and stop quick. may i recomened going to your local bike shop and renting or looking at a dh bike becuase 140mm fork isnt for dh about 160 to 203 is the size forks they run. but if your just getting into it be carefull and all those parts your gunna get get a freeride dh bike !
there is no such thing as triple crown, only triple clamp (2 on the stanchion and one on the steerer tube), and double crown ( above and below the HT)
dh/fr bikes usually come with 7/10 inches of travel dh bikes usually have 8 inches in the front FR usually 6-7. Am bikes usually have 5-6 and are pretty beefy but with a good efficient suspension platform so you can pedal up the hill as well as bomb down it. and xc is usually anywhere from 80-120mm of travel and the shock most likely will have lockout on higher end models and theres also slopystyle frames super beefy usually have around 80-140mm of travel in the back and 100-160 up front
wooot!?!? That seems awfully dangerous... Are you sure you didnt by accident lock it out? If not, its definitely broken. Of course you do need to use brunox every once in a while (i like using it after every cleaning) but not doing so would never cause such a problem...
if you want a fast ligt bike u need carbon but its very expensive and carbon is less strong than aluminium if u choose downhill than is aluminium the best but on other bike's carbon is the best
soory i cant spell. i said this video helped me how to buy a bike and it was so hard for me before i watched this.... btw i am just joking about that LOL
"can anyone help me.. my 2007 kona stinky with marzocchi drop off forks..when i hold the front break and gently rock the bike forward and backwards very gently there is a very slight knocking sound coming from the headset is this normal for these tripple clamp forks (marzocchi drop offs)the bike is brand NEW..and will it do any damage if i keep rideing at it.+if i go off a curb or over a jump there is a very slight knocking sound....thanks please let me no..."
take the bike in for a check where you bought it from
it will do some damage..if you ride it...
its not a big issue tho.....it will get fixed in 1-5 minutes if its from the headset - or 1 -2 hours if its from the fork...but since its a new bike...the fork is probably ok
lol i have the same bike, same problem lol, ya think its a coincidence? jk but ya mind getting into a bit more detail about what you did, how you fixed it, what the problem was etc. thanks mate. cheers.
hi . what bike you have ? is there clunking coming from the headset? if so could be a headset spacer or top bolt is loose. bring it into your local bike shop and they will sort it in 2 mins it is simple to do. cheeers let me no hoe you get on. cheers
that bike does not look like a DH bike. that thing looks like ittll break off the slightest drop. real DH bike is the Santa Cruz V10. I have that one and that thing is beast. thats bike theyre showing is a piece of crap.
