The trails I've been riding I'd expect to use a bit more travel, they're the kind of trails that I'd bottom out forks on when I had my previous XC bike with 100mm forks.
Forks were serviced last year but I'll try letting the air out to make sure they aren't sticking.
Will have to check tokens as I can't remember er how many, if any, were in there. -
Does anyone know much about MTB suspension?
I'm running a Pike Select fork (black, not blue) with 120mm travel. Looking at the o-ring after recent rides it seems that I'm only using around 80mm travel.
From memory I'm running about 80psi but RockShox recommend about 100psi.Does anyone have a foolproof way of setting up forks without resorting to getting a Shockwiz?

If you can get somewhere close to Chertsey then you can do the Basingstoke Canal along to Deepcut then there’s a load of trails up through Deepcut and Tunnel Hill, keep heading north through the MOD driver testing area in Bagshot and you’re in Swinley.
It’s not the best route in the world but nearly all off-road and more enjoyable than the train. -
+2 for the Cotic.
My Solaris is easily the best MTB I've had.

SRAM works as mix and match for flat mount with MTB levers.
Failing that Magura do an MT4 flat mount set-up, about £80 and end from the German shops. -

What height would the Neutrino be with the seat dropped right down?
Currently trying to figure if one of these would fit in the car/coach for the commute. -
It’s been a shitshow lately as per the news but it’s much better now as they’re paying staff extra to cover more shifts. The ost week or so queues were moving quickly. I was there yesterday and the queues weren’t too bad.
One piece of advice though, make sure you’ve got anything and everything that can be conceived as a liquid out of your hand luggage prior to security. People getting bags stopped for manual searches for liquids are getting held up for 30-60 minutes.

That looks amazing.
Now trying to justify one of these on cycle to work as a commuter.Is it wrong to want one with AXS gears and wireless dropper?

Just bin the bolts and use split pins like Shimano do in loads of the MTB calipers. That’s what I did with mine after having the same problem.
Bloke with a few bikes.
