    my head is so big that an XL helmet is a super tight fit so i took out the cheek pads and sliced the foam down to half thickness

    XXL and XXXL helmets are not common overseas, and rarer still in the Philippines. It's good that you were able to make it work with a bit of tinkering.

    ok lang yan. parang nitrogen sa tires

    when i pressurize the IFP chamber i just use a shock pump. plain air is fine for me coz this is just for leisure. maybe if you're a top athlete then you'll notice the difference but i still doubt it btw this is assuming your IFP has a schrader. if it's a rubber plug then it's not DIY-friendly coz you fill those w/ a needle. or mod it to schrader

    i always follows kung ano requirements ng manufacturer specially sa suspension..ang hindi ko lang sinusunod ay yung number of hours sa service[emoji1787][emoji1787]...anyway full shock service is around $au220....kung DIY ill spend around $150 for parts/oil

    Replaced the stock Descendant 7K 170mm 30t cranks sa ‘22 Stumpjumper Expert with X01 165mm 32t cranks.

    165 XO1's are rare as hen's teeth in Manila, even more so for the dub version.

    I was able to get an X01 165 for the Epic at a Californian online bike shop over a month ago, isa na lang stock that time. Have to wait for a while to get this on stock for the Stumpy in Amazon. Originally dapat GX 165 yung sa Stumpy, then X01 165 sa Epic(175mm stock cranks sa Epic). Nung nagkastock ng X01 165 sa Amazon nag order agad then returned the GX 165 sa Amazon for refund since di pa na-install.

    Replaced the stock GX 10-52t cassette on the Epic with an XX1 10-52t. The GX will probably be used on a future Hardtail build na pang harabas sa canal.

    Replaced the stock seatpost on the ‘22 Epic Expert and installed a Fox Factory Transfer SL dropper post with Fox Lever. Pinalitan na rin stock handlebars with SWorks Mini Rise Carbon handlebar.

    I would go with the mmmbop, to be honest. But if your stumpy evo build is just as light as your Ragley hardtail, then use the Stumpy, definitely.

    Limited space in the apartment. May area pa sa kwarto ng daughter ko for the bike storage rack. Just bribed her na bibilhan ko siya of her own bike sa Pasko [emoji3]
