My Spitfire frame cracked and the cheapest way to get another dually was to get a Marino frame built basically copying a V2 Large Spitty, 27.5, non boost, 31.6mm seat post. Some minor changes to geometry and 7 months later I have it Initially I had bike envy for a whole stack of various frames...

Bought a set of cheap MT7's a while ago and the levers were playing up a bit, pulled the blades apart to clean them and went one step too far. Reassembled but did it wrong, put them in a box for a year now I have no idea how they go back together. Looking externally at my set of MT Trail...

After much searching for a frame to replace my Niner ROS 9 as it was a bit short, I decided to get a frame made through Marino. I test rode a few bikes, but in the end they either weren't SS native (Norco Torrent) or required too many part changes, i.e. boost or seat post shims (Specialised...

I have noticed my lockout is sticking on both my FIT4 forks. First noticed it on a brand new 2018 fork as I run remote lockout on it and it won’t release while the front end has weight on it and it’s damn annoying. Then while playing around with my 2017 fork I noticed the same thing after a...

So I have a Lapierre XM527 with the fancy e:i system on it which works well while it works but recently it has been playing up again. Now being frustrated with it, I just want it gone. The current shock is a Monarch RT3 but looking at either a CC DBAir in-line or Fox DPS or DPX2 to replace it...
