  • In 2020 we hucked 28 mountain bikes to flat so we thought it was about time to compile them all into one video. Sit back, relax, and enjoy three and a half minutes of bikes getting the full squish treatment

    Super interesting video. Surprising how many of the forks bind up before actually bottoming out. There are obviously a lot of issues with the drive train and suspension. Something to look forward to in the near future I'm sure. I also know why it's so easy to throw a chain without a chain guide...

  • @Sharpened_Spoon
    @Sharpened_Spoon Před 2 lety +143

    Interesting to see on almost every test there's an initial suspension and tire compression, when the tire rebounds it continues compressing the shock (and I assume inertia within the system); then there's a moment where the system goes static as the tire begins to compress again, finally there is the full compression of the shock. I suppose this speaks A LOT to tire pressure, unsprung mass and damping. Would be really cool to see if it's possible to eliminate the phenomenon, and then test the effectiveness of application to true trail situations to see if, say, traction is improved. Wonder if a foam core that compresses under initial increase of tire pressure, but takes a second or so to "re-inflate" could work as damping for the tire to minimise the bouncing effect.

    • @stefans.8672
      @stefans.8672 Před 2 lety +3

      They pump up the tire to a higher pressure and run inserts when making these vids. Under normal circumstances this strange behavior, hurting the eyes of people who understand what they are watching, should not occur. Compression damping of the shock is in parts rebound damping for the tire. With tires blown up to volleyball pressures there is nothing it can do ot compe with the carnage.

      Josh, I like your analysis. Do you think the front fork rebound looks a bit too fast in most of these? I think having more rebound damping would be easier on the ability to keep control. And easier on his back. Look how he has to compensate for the front fork rebound shooting up whilst his body is still moving down. A more fluid movement would be better I think. Great vid. I watched it a few times at half speed.

    This is really fascinating. It looks like the front and rear begin compressing in tandem, then at the half way point, the front compression pauses for a bit then resumes compressing. The rider compression seems to begin when the bike has no more to give. The rider looks like the sequence is knees, followed by hips, followed by lower back, followed by neck head drop. Would like to see one bike compression sequence expanded in almost a frame by frame sequence. Not sure what this means but it is certainly very interesting.

    I have no clue what number of owner I am, but I picked it up for $60 at a pawn shop, and all it needed was new ceramic brake shoes.
    I've replaced 2 sets of brake shoes, 2 inner tubes, a couple of spokes, 1 kmc chain, and a easy release skewer in the back axle in the 4.5 years I've owned it.

    I see this as a video of how each suspension system works.
    Glad to know that they included hardtails, which surprisingly the frames didn't crack 😂

      They are cat 4 hardtails, no XC, and the Norco has a Cromoly frame

    • @shadowxxe
      @shadowxxe Před 2 lety +1

      hard tails due to their lack of rear suspension need to be toughened up at the back or at the very least have it so that the load is spread across the whole back or multiple parts and not focused in one area

      Frame won't snap if it's designed that way. I was worried about that Lyrik fork 😬 the stanchions could've snapped in half 😬😬

  • @alexnaturalis1179

    The back suspension rolls the back wheel forward on impact, this is excellent strategy to dissipate energy. They teach parachuters to roll upon ground impact on botched landings to minimize further damage.

    1:50 is the hard tail BEST at distributing the impact to BOTH wheels ?
    I see full sus nearly crush the rear while the front is not even compressed.

    • @anakinskyguy6582
      @anakinskyguy6582 Před 2 lety

      I think so, I also think the risk here is that depending of the quality of the frame it could literally break in half (talking about a hardtail) l

    Specialized S Works Stumpjumper did quite well at distributing that impact. Some of them immediately bottomed out and even flexed a bit.

    The movement of some of these rear suspension designs is really interesting, and how it reacts through the travel. Every like is a prayer for these peoples wrists/arms and legs!

  • @chargedmtb7440
    @chargedmtb7440 Před 3 lety +12

    Interesting how the SB115 suspension works. The shock compresses all the way before the swing arm moves thru it’s travel with the final bit of travel being the shock itself pivoting downward.

    The Stance surprised me in a good way.

    • @markvincentcocjin
      @markvincentcocjin Před 3 lety

      Yeah. At first, I thought that forcing an aluminum welded joint to flex where a bearing pivot should have been was poor engineering.
      But then I saw that the "seatstay" or flex stay flexed only just a little made me think that the engineers probably designed it where it never got past the material's acceptable flexing.
      But only time will tell I guess.
