Re: Any experienced hope rx4 users?
Rx4s were a royal main the arse for me, had two sets on two different bikes and had the same issues with both. The piston bores are tiny and were forever sticking, fully stripped down multiple times and relubed using the hunter silicon stuff they recommend only to end up back sticking again in no ti...

Re: Wanted forks that take 29x3.0, rigid or sus
Is boost a must have?
Might not be what you’re after
Got an ally version of the exotic fork in uber-duber boost (due out in 2028 hehe) also known as 135x15mm FDS.
Have a hope hub to suit this as well

Re: Gore-tex Running Shoe Recommendations
Have the juniper trails been updated to a vibram sole? Reviews of nikes own efforts at trail grip in the wet has always put me off trying their trail shoes despite loving their road going zoom x based shoes a lot.

Re: Gore-tex Running Shoe Recommendations
Gore shoes for running seems a bit pointless as all they do is trap the water that comes in the ankle inside.
Gave up with gore trail shoes and just use warm socks and breathable trail shoes - I’m not running 50-100k ultras though just up to half marathon distances

Re: FatBike Scott BigJon £500 to a BB'er
Don’t ride it now you’ve fitted the fork correctly!
It will be so much fun you won’t want to part with it!
Not sure I’ll ever part with my fat bike, seldom gets ridden these days but every time I ride it, it brings a smile to my face and I think I really should ride it more than I do

Wanted: lovemud boost rear hub
As per title.
Actually need an axle, end cap and free hub but a complete rear hub might be easier to come by for a love mud hobo rear wheel.
Would consider similar 148x12mm 6bolt disc rear hubs if cheap - ideally Shimano HG

Re: Carbon fork with straight steerer and 3" tyre clearance - does such a thing exist?
Plenty of early 26” fat bike forks would fit the bill as 29+ fits easily on a fatty. All the on one fatty ones were straight steerer as were the surly ones, the on one forks ran a mixer crown race to step out to the tapered lower bearing size, Would require a wheel build onto a 135mm hub though.
