    In my haste to get filming and the kit fitted I forgot to confirm my bikes head angle as standard. It’s claimed to be 73.5 and both my tyres are the same size etc so I took this to be correct on good faith. I am confused why this 1.5 degree kit has slackened the bike off by 3.5 degrees though, either inspired are wrong, I’ve fitted things incorrectly or there’s more at play than I expected (shorter wheelbase creating a smaller arc around the rear hub exaggerating the effect or the lower cup lifting the frame and also exaggerating it (or both))…any thoughts?

      Also the angle measuring App could be wrong / imprecise ...

    • @GrigoryRechistov
      @GrigoryRechistov 8 месяцев назад +2

      Any measurement of any physical value has limited accuracy. A measurement without estimation of its confidence interval value is of very limited use; it cannot be compared against other numbers. It only gives a magnitude of the phenomenon.
      Reliable measurement process is not an easy thing to get right, as one learns when doing any sort of science.

      Ali, are you laying something flat - like a level- along the floor in line with the bike and calibrating the measurer to that? Floor might not be really level or flat. I’m loving seeing your riding. It’s as inspiring as ever.

    • @ColinSmith2001
      @ColinSmith2001 8 месяцев назад +3

      The headset angles change the HT angle by 1.5 degrees, but adding the extra HS cup under the headtube makes for a "longer fork" and another 2 degree change?

    • @richardelsdon2027
      @richardelsdon2027 8 месяцев назад +2

      The lower headset up height is not usually factored into the angle change on these things (might be different with 9point8) and adding 10mm under the headtube will knock the angle back almost a degree as well. Its not uncommon for frame manufacturers to not hit their claimed numbers tho.

      Slackening the fork lowers the front end and adding the lower cup raises it, so nominally it is nearly a wash so the BB should more or less stay unchanged. If you install the kit the other way around to steepen the angle, it will raise the BB a fair bit.

    • @Ali_Clarkson
      @Ali_Clarkson  8 месяцев назад

      I’d say 70 is too slack for a bike that’s dedicated for street riding so inspired are smart for not going too slack but I do feel bigger wheels need different head angles than on smaller ones…the smaller the wheel the steeper you can (or need) to go, that’s why BMXs are so steep and scooters are even steeper. I think 73.5 on the Hex is slightly too much and actually hurts the bikes ability to carve spins (not that it’s impossible, plenty of people can and do 360 Hexes) and maybe a degree slacker could improve the ride slightly

    Ive been saying this for YEARS for road bikes, they get it right on all endurance and gravel bikes but all road racing bikes are about 1-1.5* too steep and too quick/nervous steering. This is exactly why you see the pros riding frame sizes at least 1 sometimes 2 sizes too small for them BUT super compensating with a 130mm or even 140mm stems to make them have the same overall proper fit but to slow down the steering! its crazy. also its the same reason why theres so much "toe overlap" on road bikes...

      I’m thinking slacker will make the bike feel more Oldschool and maybe be easier to swap between my MTB without it feeling super twitchy. Turns out it does feel more Oldschool and better for static trials moves and hooks etc. I’d say it also feels more stable in general so might work quite well for bunnyhop 360s without the jackknife effect I sometimes feel with a steeper one.

      @walken199 I couldn’t agree more! I’ve actually been pestering Inspired to make something just like that…a bike that is in between a MTB and a street trials bike.
      Even though the Hex is Inspired’s most MTBy model it’s still an extreme bike and someone coming from MTB would still find it a handful.
      Having a model that’s more relaxed with a slacker head angle, lower bb and longer wheelbase (maybe suspension corrected) would make a fantastic middle-ground bike that would be more forgiving to ride and also a great jack of all trades model.
      Sadly prototypes are expensive to make and the state of the industry means money is tight for all brands (including Inspired) so I don’t see this happening any time soon :(

      Not too sure sorry, I had a 15 or 20mm spacer on before I fitted it and afterwards I didn’t need any spacer at all.
      There’s lots of info on their website if needed 👍🏻

    I have taken my Inspired Flow to the dirt jump park and any time you get going kinda fast down hill its super sketch with the head tube angle
    What would be cool is to take the head angle thing combined with a dirt jumper fork and make an inspired dirt jumper

    So wish there was a way to slacken head angles on road bikes. If you're above an M on most, head angles are a horror show.

      @@Ali_Clarkson Not really due to integrated cabling, and integration of fork crown and down / head tubes on a lot of bikes.

    Pro tip for all servants of the Cat species: Don't put them in bags, even if you plan to let them out later... at only 19 seconds in to the video... Cute Thief does not approve of bags, only boxes...
