What are the signs of low self-esteem? Signs of low self-esteem include if you: say negative things and are critical about yourself focus on your negatives and ignore your achievements think other people are better than you think you don’t deserve to have fun don’t accept compliments avoid...

Roger Vieira gives it a review: 1st at Red Bull Genova Cerro Abajo Urban Downhill 2025 Roger managed to overcome the immense challenges of Superboost spacing, a Press Fit BB and even cable gears. Incredible.

Why do you think that it is not a bike for DIY? Have you asked anyone that actually owns the bike or are you just jumping on the armchair critic bandwagon because you cannot believe that their owners are not capable of cable installation (which, speaking from experience is not difficult).

That sounds about right if this article is to be the current thinking...and DC no longer exists. https://esmtb.com/adios-a-los-cambios-radicales-la-geometria-de-las-mtb-ha-llegado-a-su-madurez/

I would check the chain tensioner as well. I had a new XT 8100 and I had trouble going up gears halfway through the cassette. The tension was too much.

I wanted to try out the Click valves and update my tubeless inflation system at the same time to support a XC, a gravel and commuter bike: I needed a decent quality two-stage (HV/HP) floor pump with a large two-stage pressure gauge that had clear gradations for up to 40 psi with overall 160psi...

I have a Scott Spark RC so the same frame as yours basically with a total weight of less than 11Kg. I don't agree about the bike being ugly because of the enclosed shock. When out riding I only have admiration for how the bike looks although I had someone naively ask how long it takes to charge🙄

Who would have known: "3C MaxxTerra is softer and offers more traction than 3C MaxxSpeed, yet provides better treadwear and less rolling resistance than MaxxGrip". Nah, I am more of a 3CG/TR/DD person if they are Dual Compound, I am maxed out (and being a little sarcastic).

Of course he would say that because he is wanting people to buy the new electronic model. Pity the Shimano product manager never mentioned why the new XTR 9200 10-51 cassette has dropped one of the titanium cogs and replaced it with steel...and why the new XTR NDS crank arm has gone back to the...

2009/10 travel version. I have had it for a long time and have made so many changes. Such a great bike that I just kept using it until I thought that there was some stability in standards/geometry etc and then bought a 2022 Spark RC. I think that it must be the SOTA of external cable...

"A classic example of complexity imposed by the industry that almost exclusively causes disadvantages and higher costs, just to eliminate a few holes in the frame." It seems like you would like my older Nicolai Helius CC bike that I still use occasionally. All cables are external and the headset...

Should have gone ICR;)

I wouldn't listen to a "mechanic" who dislikes headset routing. It is not a difficult job to replace a top headset bearing. It is not required on a regular basis and not at all with some bearing designs. At the time of replacement, bleeding a rear brake is a simple job and can be regarded as a...

I had an earlier pair of 9100 pedals and when I took them apart for maintenance I overfilled them with grease. This pushed out the seals so I had to take them apart again and remove the superfluous grease. I currently have both the 9100 and 9200 pedals with no issues at all with the seals.

"Customer friendliness can be improved!" You are being too kind...they are crap. They want to steer everything through the Scott dealer which is fine for the dealer but by pissing customers/buyers off by lack of any personalised support/warranty work they will gradually lose buyers even though...
