Thunderstruck is a brand new trail built during 2022 by Yosemite South Gate Trails Coop in Shaver Lake, Ca. Due to weather they were not able to do the grand opening until late spring of 2023, but it was worth the wait! If you ride these trails please consider supporting YSGTC! KZfaq isn't allowing me to put in clickable links yet but a simple google search will bring them up.
Bike: Ibis Ripmo AF
Suspension: DVO

Looks pretty cool, it's shuttle-able right? I only have a DH bike, been meaning to go up north and see whats out there. Let me know if you have any suggestions

You can absolutely shuttle. There is a little bit of climbing to get from Balsam Forbay to the top of the trail but it’s not much.

Nice looking trails. What fork is that on your Ripmo? And how would you the rate the Topaz rear shock

@Dan.Outside Жыл бұрын

The fork is a DVO Onyx D1. The topaz works well once I realized I was bottoming it out (there is an extra 10mm or so that makes it look like there is a bit more travel than is available). I haven’t ridden other high quality shocks to compare it to, but I have no complaints about it. On my last bike I had a rockshock monarch that I was never really able to dial in.

are your handle bars stock width ? they seem soo wide. used to old cheap GT lol.

Yeah they are the stock Ibis handlebars. I forget the length off the top of my head but I like them a little wide. My initial build on my hard tail had narrow bars and I felt really unstable, especially at speed.

Where’s the best place to park to get there?

I like parking at the old Nursery on Huntington Lake rd. After you pass the Shaver lake marina, hang a left to go towards big creek. You will pass the help pad and shortly after on the right is a little green building. From there you can take the Cannonball Meadow trail up to the climbing road.
