Huck to Splat.Where is the lander? That Huck looks massive!

Ah the old clapper bridge, got it!Did a north south mission, didn’t realise track is closed at the cabin for a couple of weeks. I walked up Lenah valley track to the springs
There is no lander, this isn't part of the track anymore, that is the old part of the NS track after it got washed out in the May 2018 floods.Where is the lander? That Huck looks massive!
I shall go forth this weekend and prepare things for epic send. I think once @hifiandmtb finishes his slide I’ll be readyAll I'm hearing is excuses...there's a lot of rock there to fix this situation!
Well perhaps by the time he has finished his slide, @hifiandmtb and @foxpuppet will have finished the great Sydney rock send off and be in the zone for a Tasmanian rock fest!I shall go forth this weekend and prepare things for epic send. I think once @hifiandmtb finishes his slide I’ll be ready
And the first person I saw was Mrs George!
It's gone, reckon I'll have to fill the void in my life....... on your bike.......
Every second post on their Facebook group page is about the cascade. Every single person agrees....which makes the jerk in me put it down to drinking the kool aide and psychosomaticlly feeling the difference. Keen to hear your thoughts.Been a bit quiet on here recently, with not many meaningful changes to the sled for a while. Also coming back from a broken wrist after axing myself at the bike park a couple of months ago, so not much riding going on! Anywho, what better way to fill in the time when injured, than to spend $$ on upgrades!
Just took delivery of the new Cascade AM29 link. Promises a 5mm bump in travel, increased progression, bottom out resistance, mid-stroke support and better small bump tracking. That's a lot of claims, so looking forward to fitting it and seeing if it delivers on all those promises. At the end of the day I run a coil, so this should at the very least make the bike better suited to that.View attachment 374623
Yep, I've noticed that too. It's not cheap, so not surprisingly people wouldn't want to admit to it not working.Every second post on their Facebook group page is about the cascade.

Nope. Doesn't change static geo, just wheel position at full bottom out. They recommend going up a spring rate also to account for the new leverage curve. Previously my 500lb spring only gave about 20-25% sag. Now with this installed it's at 40%! Will probs have to go up to a 550lb.Doesn’t change the geo at all?
The red looks fantastic, matchy matchy - love it. Curious to see how you feel re differences, how much did you pay for shipping out of curiosity?Nope.

I convinced a mate of mine to buy the Process 153 linkage, so we split shipping, but it was $78 USD in total. This wasn't a cheap exercise, so expecting noticeable results!The red looks fantastic, matchy matchy - love it.

Amazing there's a market for this stuff and there's so many bike that can apparently be improved. I guess frames are just like suspension - there's a tune to suite the masses but there's also room for the tinkerer to improve things to their taste.Does look lovely.
I do find it typical that a frame manufacturer could screw up the travel, progression, bottom out resistance, mid-stroke support and small bump tracking. They really don't have a bloody clue.
As long as they get the froth right it's all good.Does look lovely.
