    Sick riding, awesome trails, and great review. Figures I purchase a 2024 V3 after coming from my 2021 V2, then they come out with a V4, haha. I appreciate the added suspension and the ability to go with larger rear shocks and coils now. If I had my way I'd build it with a 160mm Fox 38 and a Float X2 in the rear.

    Bought a hightower 3 on sale this past summer and love it. How does the v4 compare to the v3?

    Great little vid - so was it quiet descending? I didn’t like the transmission on my last one as it still seemed noisy/chain slap/rattle is this any better on the ht4?

      Pretty quiet for me, other than the 101 hubs buzzing I didn’t notice any excessive chain slap. I think it depends on the derailleur too tho.

    Does any one actually concern them selves with smaller rotors for better clearance i get some miniscule weight savings...but clearance?

    • @justin_niemi
      @justin_niemi  4 месяца назад +2

      Definitely! I’ve had friends smack rotors, split them open or bend them and get tossed OTB.

      I tacoed the edge of 200 rotor on a rock once. Probably would have happened with a 180 as well.
