@@bikecentral6090 have you done a video on fork install for XR Pro.

[@bikecentral6090]

Yes, I installed a Raidon. Here's the link kzbin.info/www/bejne/aoe8dnd-as2dg5o

Great vid, I have the same bike and I'm going with the same DNM shock. I'm also considering an SR suntour epixon for the front, looking forward to seeing which shock you chose.

[@bikecentral6090]

Thank you! I am glad you like it (make sure you click the thumbs-up and the subscribe buttons). I will do my best to post as soon as I can; it should be in no more than a week. I cannot wait to post the reason why I got a new shock in the first place. Stay tuned, it should be up this weekent.

[@josephzamora3354]

Hows the DNM shock holding up after 3 years? Do you do jumps with it?

[@simplemtbker2024]

Great video, how did u get the spacers kit ?

[@bikecentral6090]

Thank you! The spacers came with the shock.

[@TheStasvvv]

Hey, I'm already own this shock for six months. Still running good. Do you have any information for maintenance, replacement or adding oil?

[@bikecentral6090]

It's been a little over a year since I have mine. Unfortunately, it's been leaking for a while now. I do have some information about the maintenance and am in the process of filming a video showing how to do it.

​ @BIKE Central Hi, great video, can you provide a link from where you got the shock please, thx. Can't seem to find 165mm ones.

[@bikecentral6090]

I'm glad you like it. I got it from Amazon, but it seems like the seller no longer has it available at this time.

[@thiosemicarbizidebenzoylal2921]

165 PSI seems excessive for the main chamber. Are you positive that's not the maximum pressure?

[@bikecentral6090]

I thought so too when I first read the manual which recommends 165 PSI for 220 LBS. The maximum pressure is 180 PSI. Although 165 seems excessive, sometime it does not feel enough for my weight.

[@thiosemicarbizidebenzoylal2921]

@@bikecentral6090 I checked it out and you are correct. The rebound and the lockout lever should be adjusted for your liking because the shock is top notch and fully adjustable. Your Bike is also buildable as a 27.5 as well and two sets of wheels really opens up the bikes potential. There is also a 42 tooth sprocket for a cassette that's cheap to make it a 1x drivetrain. That bike is fully capable as a real world trail bike, and you should see the XR PRO videos. Kev central didn't explore the 27.5 wheelset option yet. That frame is far more serious as a bike than most people realize and it will accept a 27.5 2.4 inch tire for trail. Check out XR PRO on you tube and that guy has built a SERIOUS trail bike.

[@bikecentral6090]

Thiosemicarbizide Benzoyl Alcohol Thank you for admitting that I'm right, lol. I am a true newbie to MTBking, and I wanted a bike that could grow with me as I get better. KevCentral helped me a lot after Project XR Stage 1. Like you said, the XR-Pro is the most customizable bike I could get for under $500. It's a 29er, may I know why one would drop it to 27.5? I have upgraded the entire bike except for the crankset (what would you recommend

@@bikecentral6090 You will need a NEW CASSETTE, 1X CRANK WITH BOTTOM BRACKET. If you want to go to 1x11 then you can find everything on ALIEXPRESS, but a 1x10 is about 90 bucks with a 50 tooth cassette on Aliexpress. MAKE YOUR BIKE A 1X, BECAUSE YOU DONT NEED THE OTHER CHAINRINGS UNLESS YOU WANT TO GET TO 40MPH BY PEDALING. CHECK OUT ALIEXPRESS FOR A 1X10 FOR DIRT CHEAP. THIS STUFF WORKS AND ITS EASY TO INSTALL. There is a 8 speed 44 tooth cassette that's HUGE and should be all that you need for the trail and you can use the same derailleur.

Hi, I have the same suspension just installed. I think it seems to soft. Weigh about 75kg but still 50% sag at max pressure.. any thoughts ? :)

[@bikecentral6090]

Not really. I'm still using it with no problem although the sag is pretty annoying

nice! Let us know how it went on test runs (handle too)

What kind of pump is that?

[@bikecentral6090]

It's a shock pump. Technically called high pressure pump.

The model I got is "Fox Racing Shox Shock Pump 027-00-007-150 Psi Max".

To me, the frame is great. Although it feels heavy, it doesn't bother me as I don't know any better than it.

Lol, I know, it's frustrating. If you're still under the manufacturer warranty, just send them an email with pictures, proof of purchase, and your mailing address. No questions will be asked. Otherwise, you'll need to buy it from them or look for some aftermarket ones which will be extremely difficult.

I don't have their commercial names. But, when I emailed them, I only had to explain where the bolts were, then they figured it out.
