6 Slopestyle Bikes Checks: Full Suspension Is Making A Comeback | Crankworx Innsbruck

[@xElectricblaze]

Wow! Marzocchi's white fork looks pretty clean, other manufactures need to follow! The paintjob on Emil's trek looks pretty sick!!

[@cagrowin1962]

Im glad these guys can impress me with their riding skills. Jeez.

[@Frorideism]

This is how I present my piece of garbage 1980s commuter bike every day at work

[@64Spokes]

I love it haha

[@spacegodmurder]

Fro that's you mate ??

[@Frorideism]

@@spacegodmurder No it's someone else!

[@spacegodmurder]

@@Frorideism haha the world is small after all

[@Adventuregirl96]

I like that all white GT Distortion.

[@jokermtb]

so you're saying my 2009 Specialized SX Supercross 100mm slope slalom bike is back in the game?

[@pinkbike]

Absolutely. Although it probably never left the game if we're being honest.

[@jeehoonjones1389]

I love Dawid's bike, the Seat angle is MAD!!

[@anthonywalters7434]

I really hope GT makes the distortion available to the public again. I would love to build one up one day.

[@pinkbike]

What would your build be?

[@anthonywalters7434]

@@pinkbike single speed with an Öhlins RXF34 up front and a TTX1 air out back (if they have the right size). Stans Sentry 26” wheels, Renthal cockpit, and the Code R’s off of my current bike. That would be the dream build.

[@ostankovalex1176]

am I wrong, but Emil have been riding a ticket for years lol that title...

[@pinkbike]

What the consensus here? Looking at the past 15 years of slopestyle, are we seeing a FS comeback or did they never leave?

[@blubug768]

Hes been the only one on full squish for a while now.

[@natandirt]

@@blubug768 And he's the only full susers that's openly thinking about switching to hardtails lol

[@natandirt]

Meeen this motivates me to make a bike check of my dirt jumper

[@natandirt]

Hmmm Go on erik and david, tell what us tires You bouth ride, surely your sponsor continental won't mind lol

[@pauldarylx]

What brakes(cable) are they running?😅

[@Atosark]

Avid BB7 by the looks of it.

[@revivemtb5961]

So correct me if I'm wrong, if I was to build a slope bike it would be a size smaller than .y enduro light as possible with suspension as a safety net only.

[@natandirt]

It's rare that the are sizes for you to choose, and if there is an option then it's mostly only Long and Short, but even the long version will feel waaaay smaller than enduro bikes

[@JB50713]

120psi max in the Marzocchi?

[@dogmatika7]

I love the fact, that most of the riders in all of 4X use 26" Hardtails for a good reason and one of the best riders in the world (Tuhoto) destroyed everyone else on his Radon Slush, again a 26" Hardtail...tells you everything you need to know.

[@weastan]

Love de that GT

[@Mikesonbikes]

More slopestyle bikes!! If you started riding during the 29er generation ya gotta try one of these things. Talk about riding a bike! They're perfect

[@grigoryrechistov3040]

This rug... it ties the whole room together. Or, sorry, "this fork, it ties the whole bike together"

[@pinkbike]

best movie of all time

[@Dagwagon-o7]

26" 4ever

[@jjglaser]

Erik Fedko wins best setup. Best functionality.

[@blubug768]

the vertical dropouts tho...

[@damir3668]

Just about time! Just reconfigured my Trek Ticket S from a duro-slope 😂 back to a slope bike, just like how it's supposed to be 😊 believe me or not, i had Saint drivetrain, an externally routed dropper and some beefy tires. And it worked for me to use it as a trail bike. 26 inch forever. Although I'm starting to consider that I've grown up to own a 27.5 full sus...😮 P.S. psssss#t, I use a 120 mm 27.5 pike upfront, so it's not that stiff and can be converted to a mullet 😅 but don't tell anyone, especially to Trek... It might void my guarantee 😢

[@scrutch666]

I need to sell my almost untouched pslope

[@erich8258]

Who does your titles? "Comeback" is a word.

[@pinkbike]

mountain bikers

[@emirumpf9947]

My friend put this bike together for his son and before I knew it he was done kzbin.infoUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L When the son came to put it together he was surprised to see it was already done. All he had to do was take the bike to get air and be on his way. My friend did not have any major problems putting this bike together; small issue was putting one of the brakes on straight; however when the son got home he was able to fix it. The bike rides well gears move correctly; good bike for the price. Wrote review after the son took the bike. Sorry.

[@briancampbell9878]

It looks like the GT’s shock is fully compressed already. Doesn’t that mean it’ll have no suspension in an impact.

[@jimwade8201]

It looks like a super short stroke shock I think that's why

[@minusED]

They should produce distortion for the rest of us

[@Gabbenator]

i want to see tom isteds bike

[@pinkbike]

Us too, we couldnt find him.

[@Jonas_Dee]

I think its still an airdrop frame it at least looked like the frame had the stickers from the previous events on it in practice clips

[@ryanlockyer2408]

fedkos is the best

[@bkou-gi3pr]

second

[@pinkbike]

nice
