    You should check out the Bike Yoke Revive droppers if you haven't already. They self bleed and you can adjust the air pressure inside the post via a valve.

    I had the same problem with my seat post. It’s the seat tube, the cable gets kinked and the margin for error is really small. I wasn’t prepared to pay a load of money for an AXS post so the frame is being sold.

  • @discmotoslots

    Looking at both videos & comparing notes, it looked like you were riding slightly higher up in the turns~ closer to the top of the berms with the mullet. Like you were trying to drop into the turn & the bike was trying to go straight (which makes sense with the larger diameter wheel in the front). I have a 27.5 bike & was thinking of going with the 29er front so thanks for the info! liked & sub'd

  • @LegendsOfTheLoam
    @LegendsOfTheLoam 3 года назад +1

    Nice one 👌 I think I will put one of these on my enduro too. Are you running the bike in high or low? How close is the geo to stock?

    • @Blake_Cherubini
      @Blake_Cherubini  3 года назад +1

      Running ours in low. Not sure on the exact geo changes. That question is for Mic (the guy that makes it). Reach out on Instagram and I’m sure he’d answer that for ya!

  • @jbw5485
    @jbw5485 2 года назад

    Does the link change bottom bracket height? Could you not just throw a 27.5 rear wheel on and ride? I’ve got a 27.5 130mm stumpy and would like to increase the front fork to 160 and possibly run a 29inch up front. Then maybe do a cascade rear link to bump it up to 160 also. Thoughts ?

  • @justinevans435
    @justinevans435 3 года назад

    Hey... just installed the WRP mullet link. High position with the mullet link is not even even close to clearing frame tolerances, chainstay bottoms well before shock can be installed, it only works in low bb mode. I did not measure how the stock linkage compared in high bb mode. Super bummed that the WRP mullet link does not allow switching to high/low. Did you guys compare the stock link in high to the WRP in low? I would think WRP would engineer the aftermarket link to work in high/low to allow changes. Makes me wonder if it is the same as the stock link in high bb mode.

    • @justinevans435
      @justinevans435 3 года назад

      Just reread their stats and it is designed to work in the low setting, I misread initially and missed that only some frame sizes will work in high. In the S4 definitely not even close to being able to flip to high.

    • @shanecurnyn4612
      @shanecurnyn4612 3 года назад

      Action on the Transfer is better than OneUp but OneUp has that 210mm travel. Gotta grease the OneUp every dozen rides or so and top off air pressure. As long as you keep that up it’s solid. If Fox had a true 210mm I’d go with that (6’4”) but until they do the travel of the OneUp is worth the extra work.
