Fully automated using inputs from multiple sensors: RockShox Flight Attendant XC Review | The New Benchmark
I doubt the bike industry has learned from their mistakes. Iām going to wait until they make too many (based on current demand) then get it for 40-50% off next winter. 
Wolftooth also makes a 104bcd 30T that works with the P2M. Thatās also available in the Dropstop B tooth profile, which is what you need for Transmission.
I have that setup running really well on my Blur TR
Yep makes sense. Wolftooth doesnāt make a Drop Stop ST in a 30.
Iām not sure some of their decisions, wanted a 46 for my gravel bike and they donāt make it as well 107 bcd dropstop b annoying!
Wolftoothās product choices are itās own threadā¦
Iāve mostly given up on wolftooth for garbaruk
Has anyone noted an actual difference in speed with the switch from heavy stock alloy wheels to light carbon wheels? Considering some upgrades to my 21 Norco Revolver FS 2 (same spec as 23 model 2023 Revolver FS 2 100 | Norco ) except Iāve changed to Ray/Ralph tire combo and added a dropper.
Considering switching to 165mm cranks with a 30T chainring as I find I spend a lot of time in the upper half of the cassette when on single track.
Thinking about getting a 2nd wheelset so I can have one wheelset with XC race tires and one set with DC tires like Rekons or Syerras. Wondering if its worthwhile to get a carbon wheelset compared to something like Hunt Trail Wide HUNT Trail Wide MTB 29 Wheelset ā Hunt Bike Wheels International
Iām ~59kg, Iāve heard the reduction of flex in carbon wheels is really beneficial for heavier riders.
I wouldnāt buy a second set of wheels if they arenāt gonna be carbon, or itās not worth it at all.
Iād get the roval control wheels @ $1350 and 1450g theyāre one of the best value xc carbon wheelsets out there. 2 year crash warranty. 275lb rider limit. 30mm id.
Probably depends on the wheelsā¦
Had the heavy stock wheels on the entry level epic evo. Swapped out the wheels and the NX cassette (for XO mechanical) and completely transformed the bike. The wheels knocked off more than 2 pounds by themselves. In that case it was a big difference.
Reducing weight at the wheel is suuper noticeable imho. I had a 2.2ā 550g tire on my front wheel and swapped for a Schwalbe Marathon (900g?). The steering, the handling and the overall feel of the bike immediately changed. Iād say yes, itās reallly worth it if youāre coming from a heavy 2kg box section wheelset to something in the range of 14-1500g. At youāre weight Iād be looking at 11-1200g wheelsets from Nextie or the likes.
I did a casual weight comparo of rear wheel + tire combos I have for my Scalpel HT.
Sorry wasnāt thinking grams when I did the weightsā¦
1- SLX Hub, standard DT spokes, pretty run of the mill alloy DT rim (iw 30mm) with Schwalbe Hurricane tire 2.35" and a butyl tube was 6.25 lbs
2- Shimano XT wheel (prebuilt) alloy rim iw 30mm with WTB Nano 2.1" setup tubeless 5.2 lbs.
3- Cannondale Hollowgram (DT Swiss carbon rim iw 27mm) with Schwalbe Thunder Burt 2.1 tubeless 4.2 lbs.
The first one on the list are 100% daily training wheels and itās so much fun to put the hollograms on 
Iām a week in my sales Evo pro now, and with my setup - essentially changing Ground Controls to Barzo/Mezcal tubeless and adding pedals its 11.5kg according to my Amazon suitcase weighing device. Whilst not bad and other than removing the dropper Iād be interesting to know how people are getting it lighter, as its dripping in carbon already.
Having said that Iām not going to be paying what it takes for the wheel & dropper upgrades for the sale of 200g or so so perhaps its a moot point.
anyone tried using a xxl esi grips, cut them and split the two parts to fit the brake clap to extend the grips towards the stem for climbing? Iām thinking of doing this but would like to hear feedback if anyone tried this before
I got a xx1 quarq 8 bolt. Can i swap chainrings and use that for xxsl tranmission?
Havenāt tried but canāt think of why not. Did you get the 107 bcd? Wolf tooth and sram make t-type compatible chainrings for that quarq but not sure they go down in size enough for mtb
Its the mtb quarq 104 bcd. I think id need these rings to be transmission compatible
The dropstop-b is t-type compatible, Iāve used them on my gravel nullet setup. 2mm offset should work just fine I guess
Was on some crest mk4, but got the carbon itch, and since my usual go to stans isnt selling any carbon xc wheels right now, decided to pull the trigger on some roval controls since the value on them is so great. Got them for $1080 brand new with a coupon code.
Also switched up the oneup 35mm bar to a enve m5 flat bar and spent the extra for a trek kovee pro stem so I could run their blender Garmin mount. That thing is sleek!
Bike should be in itās final form now. Itās also running a 4iii left side power arm. Excited for race season to start.
I see you have the Aspen on the rear with the Rekon Race on the front. Do you feel the Aspen is a better rear tire than the Rekon Race. Interesting that BRR tests the Rekon Race 2.4 as faster than the Aspen 2.4.
