Had a good ride yesterday at Tokai and out at Paul Cluver today.

 

Had to let a bit of air out the front, as the recommended pressures on the RCT3 as suggest for a 100kg rider were way too high for me... So got the guys at T&T to set it to a 70-80kg person and it felt much better.... Any advice on setting an RCT would be appreciated!

 

Other than that, its a brilliant ride!

Dude, wow!

You went all out, this is done well. Love the extra Hope bits. How are those grips, I am thinking of getting some?

[Doezel]

Lovely bike. I actually liked the stickers on the rims. But then its not mine, its yours. Enjoy

 

Well, maybe, as a nice compromise, the stickers are still there on the left side of the bike. :-)

Heh, thanks. Love the grips. Though I heard they tend to get slippery when wet. We'll see.

Nice build! I bought 3M Helicopter tape - instead of the frame protection stickers, its much cheaper than the frame stickers.

Thanks, will look into this tape because the frame stickers are not a nice solution.

[Louis for real]

Removed the rim stickers, much cleaner!

It is brilliant, not too sure why bike stores don't stock it..

RE the air pressure.....Get a shock pump and carry it with you on the first couple of rides....

I've just been through the same thing. My setup got a lot better when I set everything to mush and then worked up from there.

 

So set as little rebound and compression as possible, and then set your sag at 30%. Like you I ended up with MUCH less air pressure. Then I add rebound until I get that bounce and a half, and then I added a touch of compression, but not much at all.

[awesme]

thinking I need to set my RCT3 and Monarch also up properly.

 

Anyone have an idea of the pressures for 70kg rider?

 

PS: whats everyone's solution to carrying (multi tool, 2 x air bomb, bomb adapter, tubeless repair kit),

 

atm I carry it in a saddle bag, but want to keep the place open for a rear facing GoPro housing

It got raided for the 650, I've been building it back up slowly - have all the stuff now.

[awesme]

so now you then need to show both bikes next to each other

 

this does have the advantage of creating reason to rebuild the 110 into a new look
