    Love seeing DH bikes getting attention again. Can't ever count them out for pure fun and purpose.
    If you guys are ever in the Mass/NY area and need any suspension work done, feel free to hit me up. Setting up a suspension service business and love to help anyone out who needs it!

      DH bikes are the most fun bikes hands down! We’ll keep you in mind when we’re up there but good luck with the business!

    Those Michelins looks dope (& expensive). I haven't been on the bike scene since I was teenager but I used to run IRC MYTHOS on my DH Bike - Which are now like $70 for a completey unusable one which confuses me but ok. Then again, OEM GT BMX Tires (AAPro) are selling for perverse amounts too - which I have a whole shed full of.

    I bought a 2023 Demo a week ago and man,the performance is insane! At 5.10 (178cm) I found the stock geo totally spot on even with the rear 29" wheel the bike is pretty nimble and crazy fast in the rough sections. I do not like too much the mullet setup but I do not race,just ride bike park and fun stuff. I got DH22 front and rear too,IMO best downhill tire in the market,fantastic in any situation. That raw look is amazing. Good luck for this season!

    Man I thought you had your hands on a new intense prototype bike. Then I realized it was a demo also know as a size small intense prototype lol. Same same other than sizing pretty much by the look of it.

    Running the Sram HSC rotors with Saint brakes. Was it all you could find or are you after a certain feel? How do you like the setup?

    • @Blake_Cherubini
      @Blake_Cherubini  Год назад

      Love the feel/power of the saint levers. HS2 rotors are slightly thicker and seem to have a better braking surface. Pretty happy with the setup!

      @nickryan3287 Год назад

      I've been loyal to Code RSCs for a while now, but never real impressed with sram rotors. Happened to try to Shimano ice tech RT66 rotors that came stock on a bike with a set of RSCs and that combo rules. If only they made 220s...

      We are supported by Michelin directly this year so we got them straight from the source. I unfortunately don't know of a reliable retailer at them moment 😕

    Sort of an odd question for you
    I run a 2020 Transition Patrol, 180f, 170r.
    What tips do you have for running DH race pace on an Enduro rig?
    Should I do more laps? Or is a DH rig really going to help me unlock another level of race pace?

    • @Blake_Cherubini
      @Blake_Cherubini  Год назад +3

      I don't think there's any arguing against the fact that DH bikes can be ridden faster/harder than an enduro bike BUT that doesn't necessarily mean that anyone can hop on a DH bike and instantly be putting down faster times. In my opinion, DH bikes (longer, slacker, heavier, more travel) allow riders to be more comfortable on track which results in them being able to go faster. Typically, more experienced riders are going to see more benefit from the switch to a DH bike from an enduro bike because they are more capable of pushing them to their max potential. I just got beat by a couple enduro bikes at the last DHSE so I can't really claim that they are absolutely necessary to go fast, but they definitely help and are nice to have and it sure wouldn't hurt to add one to the garage if money is not an issue!

      Are you 29/27/mullet on the Patrol? Would you still recommend the Patrol in 2023 to a beginner? I was mostly interested in the ability to go full 27 but convert back if I ended up not liking it, hard to find other bikes that allow you that wheel option, as I don't know what I prefer yet to commit to one wheel size. Otherwise considering a Spire/Altitude if I knew I wanted to commit to 29 or trying a Forbidden/Deviate with the option to mullet, too many options...

      I don't like 29 back wheels on longer travel frames as they tend to eat my riding shorts... Haha
