    I agree forks are one of the first things new riders are gonna upgrade. I saw a kid at the park bend his after a week or two on a new bike.

    • @danscompvideos
      @danscompvideos  2 года назад

      It can definitely get sketchy especially when new riders start learning 180s and they bend outwards, chopper bike style.

  • @_tcmore

    Fork and handlebars are my top two things to change out first. Might also mean changing the stem depending how long you’ve ridden it with the older bars and fork before swapping.

  • @VAustin89
    @VAustin89 2 года назад

    I went the other way around. I saved up for a frame and moved my old parts there, and slowly upgraded it. In this case I would upgrade cranks first to some 48 spline, the 8 spline is hefty and if you are not taking care of it they can come loose and strip the bolts making them useless. Not really a weight weenie but having a tad bit lighter bike makes you ride longer.

    • @danscompvideos
      @danscompvideos  Год назад +1

      It's still around and you'll see it from time to time. Most recently in our ultimate peg test video.
      The original build video didn't get much interest, unfortunately. The bike has since turned into a temporary testing platform or to show part installs. The coming reviews will be on parts I, or another Dans rider, has used on their personal bikes. A dedicated test bike was a good concept, but in practice we couldn't get much filming on it when everyone wants to ride their own bikes. At least it's still getting some good use, albeit not what we initially planned lol.
