  • it looks like the spring just replaced part of the top tube, allowing the chainstays to flex, which will weaken the frame and make cracks if its aluminum.

  • @treewizzard no, there is a bearing pivot I copied from nicolay helios freeride frame!

  • With the rear tire still low in pressure the air shock isn't really doing much anyway.

  • @Merpsalot yes, I understand this, so I tested the bike with 0.5-1bar higher pressure and sidehopping 8 palettes felt so easy although the bike weighs 10kg. I can acctually use the spring.

  • it looks sloppy, surely having a spring will take all the power out, i ride 26 and can sidehop stuff that size with no effort.

  • @stiiimpy for many technique it's bad but for sidehop it can help.
