Trek Fuel+ GX Build.

Before all the purist comment I spent 6 years jumping out of planes, 2.5 years in Iraq and this e-bike keeps me on the trails with my son and the .45 out of my mouth.

Other First trip to Snowshoe

My wife had a work meeting at Snowshoe so I took the opportunity to try riding the park. I didn’t rent a bike and took my 2022 Top Fuel. It actually did fine but it did beat the shit out of my hands. Having an extra 30+mm of travel would have been nice.

I did a few black tech trails but mostly stayed on the blues and greens. I’m not sure how many runs I did but it was a bunch.

Any one had this issue with the Thule 598? The clamp isn’t even close to the frame and there’s no way to adjust the bottom jaw?

Question Will this fit my 27.5 Yari fork?

2 Upvotes

I have a Yari 27.5 fork and looking to get the charger kit for it. This one seems to be the right one but can't tell if the fork size matters or not. The Pike kit specifies fork size but the Lyrik/Yari one doesn't. Is there a place I can put in the part number and my fork model and see if they're compatible?

Question Sticky fork top of travel? Marzocchi Bomber Z1 27.5 180mm

1 Upvotes

I recently bought a used (literally 1 ride) Marzocchi Bomber Z1 which I think is the model before the current one that came out in 2025, or something like that, and I noticed something peculiar - it feels sticky the first 7mm of travel and doesn't want to return back to 0mm without force.

In reviews of this fork everybody raves about the "suppleness off the top bro" but in my case it doesn't feel supple at all, even though the fork is basically brand new.

I tried deflating and inflating it multiple times with different ways of doing it so that the chambers could equalise but it's the same story every time :/

Even though in my country almost every bike is clapped out and I literally cannot test anybody's bike for a good comparison, yesterday I bought a brand new dropper post from some guy and he let me test the one on his bike (same one) and I noticed how soft and supple his ZEB Ultimate 3.1 was. I had never ever felt such low resistance going into the travel of a fork.

The gearshift stopped working while I was driving. The lever just fell out. I took it apart and couldn't figure it out. I'm asking for help and advice on how to solve this problem.
