Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 Not strictly a jump bike or anything to do with downhilling, but I usemy Felt Q620 HT to hit the hills. Just lower the saddle by 6 inches sothat I can maneuvre a bit more easily, and hey-presto. Need to get my confidence up a bit before I tackle the big hits, butI've been reading up on the specs and by all accounts the fork canhandle up to about a 5ft before bottoming out, which is pretty good fora bargain basement! Also, the frame is as strong as houses...
perp Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 DHK your mailbox is full, will post those parts tomorrow.
DownhillingKing Posted August 11, 2009 Author Posted August 11, 2009 Guys Post pic of you ride please
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 just a bargain basement Suntour XCM 100, but I'm looking at getting a Tora U-turn or Revelation U-turn in the distant future to make things a bit more reliable ITO ride life. The fork hasn't bottomed out yet, and I'm a pretty hefty 92kg... Possibly down to the way I ride though. Try to be a bit smoother and land with both wheels.
