Hey, I've got a line on a brand new 1997 Y-11 for sale in Chicago. Brand new as in, never had pedals installed. It has been built for a few years, but she's...
Personally, I love any of the Shimano range - stunning value for money, incredible performance - what more do you need...I have the XTR, XT and Saints on...
If you like Disc Brakes over cables, you gotta try Hydraulic - they are ten times better!!! Well worth the upgrade and cash... ________________________________...
Put simply: Disc brake performance far outweighs any negatives, due to weight for example. Buy a set of Mavic Crossrides - great value wheelset from Mavic, and...
I did a quick study to see how much weight will disc brake add compare to V brakes. A V-brake set (per wheel) weight 192g A Avid BB7 caliper and 6" (160mm)...
I will do that as soon as I can. I am enjoying these though, so I can't imagine brakes that are ten times better. I have noticed that the hydraulic brakes...
Greetings all, I live in Philadelphia & I'm moving to Miami in a few weeks so I'm thinking of selling my Y33. Unfortunately the topography isn't to favorable...
I had already posted about this bike at Village Cycle center on Wells st.in Chicago. I recall it being a blue color and yes, brand new with full warranty. I...
Hi everyone, I am picking up a Nude Y-22 this weekend, and I am getting the supplies I need for its arrival ready. It has the stock Judy fork and the Stratos...
A standard shock pump works just fine on the Strata Pro. I did find with mine that the shock had a sticking valve, so you lost a lot of air when unscrewing the...
Here is a manual for the Stratos shox. http://buckner-engineering.com/private/Scott/shock%20manual.pdf Just the other day i bought a unused Stratos xc pro for...
well, I have finally aquired all the parts to build my Y-22. It has a fox alps 5 and I have no idea how to pre-load/ set pressure, tips, tricks, etc. . . I...
Alps 5 was before lockouts. Try 200psi initially, but you may have to go higher to keep it from bottoming on larger drops. I ran my Alps 4 at about 250, and I...
I own a '97 Y22, and was wondering how many links I should add to my chain after it is on the largest front/rear sprockets? The instructions say 2-extra links...
I slapped 200 psi in the ALPS 5 today and the thing is stiff as a hardtail. There is no rear-wheel on it, not have I sat on it yet (no seat post either) but...
There is normally a lot of initial friction. I have to put all of my weight on the seat with my chest or hop up and down on the pedals to see movement. I use...
Yes. It should move right with your weight on it. Mark From: trekybikes@yahoogroups.com [mailto:trekybikes@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Jeremy Rardin Sent:...
I weigh 165# and have the same rear shock on a Y-22. I run it at 150/160 psi. At this pressure I get about 3/8" sag. Set your pressure to get the correct sag...
Sorry guys for being a full suspension newbie... The Y22 I just purchased has the Judy fork. I was noticing that while letting the bike stand with the forks in...
