    There's nothing like cleaning a challenging trail in its entirety, no dabs, no second-guessing, just full-on in the zone. Nicely done.

    Great video. I have a 50/50 chance of passing that tree after the step-up. There's always a crowd there or some dude near the middle of the path. The step-up is the easy part. I saw a video from Mo & Hannah riding down Rock-It and she said , "it never gets easy!" I must agree.

      The Melon is killing it. But it should be noted that I did that step-up and full-pull on my ol' Recluse years ago. The step-up is actually the easy part. It's that quick down-shift and tech pedal afterwards. 😆

    Must have missed you guys this weekend. We hung out at the fire ring at SkyPark with you and Kelly after Tony’s group ride. I also took my wife up for exactly the same thing but we went all the way to Meadows and back up Wood Canyon. What a grind... Great video, I hope to see you guys at Tony’s next group ride. Keep the rubber down. By the way, what setting are you using on you 38 up front?

    • @mtb_alan
      @mtb_alan  3 года назад +1

      Hey! That was a fun day at Skypark!
      That's cool. Yeah, I like to introduce Kelly to an area with as little suffering as possible. She'd prefer to ride Snow Summit all year if she could. 😆
      re: 38 settings
      I hate to say it, but I'm not fully sure at the moment.
      I've just been making tweaks to the factory recommended settings.
      But I can tell you that I've opened up the HSR a bit, and have also opened up the LSC. I believe other than that, it's at factory recommended for my pressure which is 75psi.
      Hope that helps.
      As a note, the 2021 Grip2 damper is actually different. Brandon and I discussed this some in our Q&A: ruclips.net/video/hLpI_rXnNXs/видео.html
