This is like a PhD thesis. Amazing job.

[@RULEZMANSUSPENSION]

appreciate it!

[@vadominiqueenpunkt6589]

Pinkbike and Company look like complete amateurs next to you. Serious explanations and no marketing bla bla or comfort complains. Pure mechanical and technical knowledge and university level tests. No simple "comparison" within 1 day and than recommending a 1500$ fork. Shout out. Thats how riding should be. Thanks a lot! #gmbn and #pinkbike - get a piece from his cake, he knows his stuff!

The effort that went unto this video is unimaginable

[@RULEZMANSUSPENSION]

correct 😅😅😅😰

[@vonarg]

Single crown: - efficiency at pedaling (weight) - reactivity - price Dual crown: - confidence in the D- - look - rigidity Note: by a psychological aspect this should create the desire to surpass yourself more, reducing the gap of efficiency. Your channel is just amazing, without a doubt the best one to go in deep in suspension for MTB on internet. The amount of effort is mind blowing. You certainly deserve more followers!

[@RULEZMANSUSPENSION]

I appreciate your comment! thanks

[@TheLoamRanger]

This is a fantastic test. Thanks for putting all that time, effort and money into this comparison. You’re in a league of your own! Which bike did you mount the forks onto and is it cleared for dual crowns by the manufacturer? I’m currently running an Enduro dual crown (MRP Bartlett) on my Ibis HD5 but I’m very much wanting to try it on my Ripmo V2. Do you believe that the additional forces of a dual crown could be detrimental to a modern carbon Enduro bike like the Ripmo under normal riding circumstances? Thanks again for your work!

[@RULEZMANSUSPENSION]

bike is written at end of video. I don’t have title to confirm or ban the use of a dual crown fork on an enduro frame, but what I can say, without any right to say it , is that I know frames are usually tested on a iron rig that holds the steertube way stronger that a dual crown fork. so to my knowledge a dual crown wont be a problem on any bike... but, this is just an opinion, do your tests and researches before you install something different from the original fork.

[@RULEZMANSUSPENSION]

I forgot to say thank you for the kind words , over all!

[@CristianBurr]

Awesome video! Great comparison, you really took it to the next level, this is the kind of content we bike geeks want to see! Cheers!

[@RULEZMANSUSPENSION]

thanks man

[@arnauddechamps855]

what you say is a basic knowledge in offroad motorcycle, finally a real review, you end up saying that single has more flex anyway. And the double crown is clearly doing the safe part perfectly. DC is just the real thing, the suspension manufacturers are just playing around. A DC looks much better anyway. Really amazing work you have done there, clearly the channel that do not get a paycheck to say yesyes. Grazie!

[@RULEZMANSUSPENSION]

Thx for your Effort, Time and Knowledge. I enjoyed every Second from this Video and i am quite sure the crone depends what you ride.

Fai paura, giuro che non ho mai commentato un video di KZbin in vita mia nonostante ci passi parecchio tempo cercando di prendere su più pillole di tecnica possibile...... Era da tanto tempo che speravo di trovare qualcosa del genere, per il semplice piacere di vedere e sentire dettagli tecnici come nessun altro ha mai fatto e spiegato prima. Invece delle solite cose dette da tutti, vaghe e con poca sostanza, nei tuoi video che sempre qualche cosa di nuovo ed interessante da imparare. Niente lasciato al caso, lavorazioni della madonna e chiarimenti su tutte le variabili ( che sono la cosa più bella secondo me). Oltre chiaramente al gran manico per le lavorazioni artigianali che sono veramente un piacere per gli occhi!!!! Io da appassionato di tecnica e lavorazioni meticolose in generale non posso che farti i miei complimenti. Bravissimo.....saresti da ascoltare per ore!!!!!

[@chrism5768]

Great video. My thought is the big fork companys have product they need to sell, this takes priorty over single crown vs dual.

[@treyblakeandrew]

This video is absolutely fantastic and matches my opinion as well. I once slapped a fox 40 on my enduro bike in order to do a downhill race (not very scientific, left it at 203mm and the hel actually felt worse because I had to over spring the shock to match the fork, leading to a very high bb and steeper head angle). Instantly the benefits of stiffness became very apparent. I also felt like I was able to run stiffer spring rates without deflecting allowing me to go even faster. The handling through g outs and take offs was way more composed too

[@RULEZMANSUSPENSION]

most of the bikes are way to short, and too steep in HA, and so on ...... we need time before the market will adjust geos to perfect geos ! but nice to read you experimented yourself something different from the stock...

[@treyblakeandrew]

@@RULEZMANSUSPENSION I agree 100%. I believe the biggest reason we don’t have dual crown Enduro bikes is that the reach has been too short and peoples knees would be on the crown on climbs. Finally after years we’re moving the right direction.

I have more wheelbase. M'y xc IS also modified i have 160mm Travel AT front and 150 AT rear i dont Care about the rules. M'y xc IS a much better bike than was before . I have more head tube angle and more wheel base and i feel thé diference. I also want to Say that i like your alluminium color bikes ,i like the natural colors of the metals.
