Rigid fork for pump track action?
/2 Comments/in Ask Lee, Equipment/by leelikesbikesLee, What are your thoughts on a rigid front fork for a dedicated pump track bike? I’m thinking that a rigid fork (like a DMR Trailblade 2) would be better for pump track riding than even a stiff suspension fork. Thoughts?

What’s with the new Specialized Pitch?
/13 Comments/in Ask Lee, Equipment/by leelikesbikesHi Lee, just wondering if you have ridden the new Specialized ‘Pitch’, and what type of riding it is best suited to? Any idea of it’s weight? How does it compare ride wise to either an Enduro or Stumpy FSR? Cheers Rich
It’s OK to walk
/10 Comments/in Life with a capital L/by leelikesbikesLife here is rolling along with a big, fat capital L. When things are changing and rocking and rolling, I guess you gotta pin the sections you know, roll the sections you don’t know and — yeah, get off and walk when you have to.

Yeti 4X for all-around love?
/6 Comments/in Ask Lee, Equipment/by leelikesbikesHi Lee – wondered if I could ask your advice on a bike? At the moment I mainly ride a hardtail – I’ve worked backwards from a really big bike, and have got to a point where I just ride a chameleon, with a pike fork, and i LOVE it! This change came about from […]
Finding the right coil spring
/5 Comments/in Ask Lee, Tech tips/by leelikesbikesLee, Got a question about coil springs: when do I need to step up to a heavier weight? I’m running an older Vanilla TC rear shock with a 550 lb spring. 500 lbs was definitely too light. 550 will work, but with a lot of turns to the preload collar. I’m not 100% on my […]
