RockShox Turn Coat Review
For dirt jump and slope style riders there has always been the issue of figuring out how to route the front brake line. You could run a really long front break line; I have done that before, and have a complete mess of cables. The usual alternatives are to use a BMX over sized star nut or modify a regular one and route it through a narrow hole and have the line stick straight up out of the steer. RockShox has come out with a solution, enter the Turn Coat.

Totem continues the wave of creativity in model year 2010 and offers up a new feel for riders that crave gravity. RockShox has worked diligently on the finer points concerning the updated Totem, the most exciting change being the addition of a new damper, Mission Control DH. Mission Control DH trades the floodgate in standard Mission Control for a high flow compression piston to optimize descent-oriented bump performance. This new damper is shared with Lyrik and BoXXer platforms and is the performance answer to spirited descents.

Under unusually hot temperatures, well unusual for Sea Otter - this is what SRAM showed us. If you've been thinking of personalizing you ride with performance parts, these are for you.

RockShox Domain 318 and Vivid 5.1 get freelaped in Whistler
So you've got yourself some fancy new suspension for your two wheeler, but have no idea what the dials on it do? Well that is a common situation for a lot of riders out there, so last weekend I had the opportunity to do some testing to see how different set ups can effect the ride of my bike. Feel is one thing, but I also wanted to know how the set ups would effect my time on a set course so I met up with Tyler Morland, Kenny Smith and Adam Billinghurst for some freelap testing.
Here are the results and my impressions from the various set ups we tried that day-enjoy the video too!

Reba World Cup-ridden and reviewed
I have recently had the pleasure of riding and racing the 2006 RockShox Reba World Cup and would like to share my joy in the experience; okay, hopefully my whole write up won’t be as lame as that. I have ridden a number of different front forks in the past couple of years and find that I’m in love with the Reba (teary eyed). For all of you that are skeptical because you’ve ridden a flimsy xc fork, or a heavy xc fork, or an xc fork that just gave you a measly 2.5 mm of travel (why bother), rejoice, because this baby will rock your world.
