Clear skies, finally. Yay summer dry season. Go jump that shock and see if you can hurt it. Their shocks are moderately priced, if you fellas like it I'll buy one. Sounds like it comes with the spring? If not will my Fast Ace spring fit? 35mm body OD 450lb.

I have the fox with the sls 3.15x500 i'm 205lbs and never bottomed even on small jumps...the tire stays planted on the ground compared to the DNM.. I made custom bushings as the ones offered were too short and I didn't want to bend the ears....I bought longer bushings and cut them a few thousands so they just fit. I have 2500 miles on my bike and all is well...I went with a 3/4 add a link in the rear with a aftermarket triangle..

Love your videos! I am a taller rider and I am finding myself feeling tippy and about to loop out. I have all of the recommended height mods like the seat riser, tires, peg extenders, etc. I was wondering if you guys would recommend a swing arm. This could add travel and allow for wider tires. Thoughts?

@emotobros 2 жыл бұрын
We have not used any swing arm but the limiting factor of the tire width is she chain and jack shaft. A swing arm will not resolve this.

So I got a question about the Segway X260, when changing to a different controller and battery, would I still need to use the app, or is that something I would no longer have to worry about?

More suspension options = more better! I would be interested to hear long term reviews on how well suited the top tier of MTB suspension really is for 120-130lb bikes like the sur ron/talaria. I'm a 200lb rider and just can't imagine even fox 40s/DH holding up under that much combined weight for long. Especially with some track use.

whats the reason you only sell the bac4000 and not the 8000? one of you have a bac8000 right?
@emotobros
@emotobros Жыл бұрын
Couple of main reasons. The first being is that it is simply more power than what is necessary. With more power at users fingertips comes more liability and technical support issues regardless of whether you have instructions, disclaimers, etc. We generally sell out of product in under 12 hours but if the demand for 4000s greatly decreases and there is only demand for 8000s then that may be a route we decide to go in. That being said, neither of us run the 8000 on our personal bikes or have any plans to unless a better motor could support it!

You should check out the EXT Arma mx if you're looking for the ultimate in SurRon suspension. There really is no comparison with everything that is on the market. Purpose built for the SurRon with spring rates ranging from 400-600 lbs.
@emotobros
@emotobros Жыл бұрын
Definitely a solid option. The Vonkat is also purpose built and half the price of the EXT! Our main concern with the EXT is the adjustability stemming from the use of a hydraulic damper and how that shallows out the plunger and reduces adjustability for the preload.

@@northsandiegorc4248 Travel on a shock is defined as fully uncompressed to fully compressed with no bump stop. My understanding is that the bump stop method that EXT uses removes around 3/8" of travel compared to a typical rubber bump stop. Is that not correct?
@mixmastamikal
@mixmastamikal Жыл бұрын
@@emotobros That is definitely incorrect. The Hydraulic Bottom out Circuit on the EXT will actually allow for the shock to get to the true travel compared to a shock using a rubber bumper.

@@mixmastamikal my last comment certainly was unclear. The hydraulic damper does remove travel. That being said, the EXT does still have 3.5" of travel, however, without the hydraulic bump stop it would have even more assuming nothing else changes and a typical rubber bumper and dust seal were used. By adding a hydraulic bump stop you are effectively reducing the size of the piston rod guide. Due to this they had to make the size of the hollow shaft bigger in diameter to compensate for the lack of rigidity this would cause. This is suggestive of their reasoning for not wanting customer to add more than a two turns of preload so that the shaft assembly isn't overly stressed stemming from the shawllowness.

Fox float being lighter and having more feel in the travel might be right for me. Not really any big jumps or hard hitting trails in Socal

I passed on the sls spring, used the 550 dmn spring Luna offered for awhile and it has proven the correct choice for my 175 LB. frame. I ride 100+ days a year as I work at a motorcycle rec area and would NEVER choose an unproven shock and you don't even know if rebuild kits are easily available. Terrible review, guys.

The EBMX shock has the incorrect stroke length and requires an adapting linkage that changes the leverage ratio. First thoughts on paper are not pleasing enough to purchase for testing but we would be more than happy to try it out and give our thoughts if it were sent to us👍🏼

It might be a good idea when recommending any fox fork or shock to let people know that putting any Fox fork or shock on a sur ron automatically voids your Fox warranty. All fox products are made for MTBs and that's it.
@emotobros
@emotobros 11 ай бұрын
An important point for sure. That being said, you’d have to abuse them pretty bad to need to use the warranty. Bike shops will still service them assuming you take them in separate from the bike.
