Mountain Biking Therapy
zhlédnutí 960Před 10 měsíci
Going for a mountain biking ride can be it's own form of therapy for some people. Lately, I haven't been making enough time for bike rides and it has been starting to affect my mental health. So I went for a ride on the Peppermint Loop at Potato Creek state park to reset myself while being surrounded by nature.

    I really like the idea of this frame as fast blue, green, and flowy black trails. I would be running it single speed. I dont jump alot but i tend to take opportunistic hits here and there. I am in Louisville so I ride brown county alot. How has this 2nd frame held up for you? No breaks? Just a bit leary about these frames.breaking. Although, I have not heard of the M4 frames breaking.

    Nope. Air is getting in the damper lower leg. Try tightening the 15mm nut on the damper side. If that doesn’t do it, flip the bike over, have a new crush washer for the damper side nut, remove nut, add new crush washer with some SRAM butter or Slick Honey, retorque to spec. Then, as one small 1/5 turn to that. That should seal up the leg.
