yeah the slash weighs 32 pounds correct and the remedy weighs about the same both great bikes i actually have the slash and i ride just like @willaasss but indeed i need a better fork as well i find myself almost bottoming out.. what psi do you use in your front fork ?
-
hi fella, i replaced it with a marzocchi 66 fork. Its a little hevier and has more travel 180mm but it suits my riding.
-
i have the remedy as well, what fork did you use to replace the original one?
-
really not sure of the weight if im honest, but i just found the weight of a trek slash which it 13.5kg which is a rough estimate for you.
-
Nice! I can't afford to buy one of these yet. However, I'm planning to do so in the future if can do both things with it... now I'm doing all with a hard tail jaja ("soft-downhilling", of course... not big bumps). Could you tell me how much does it weight (All the bike)? Trek does not provide weight measures in their website... Happy downhilling and thanks for the answer!
-
Its a remedy fella. Its good at both to be fair, i put 180mm forks on the front which helps smooth out the big stuff when you pick up speed ;-)
-
Is it a Remedy? Does it go right for downhill? And uphill? Nice vid!
-
Thank you fella. Ive found a couple more gooduns in my newer vids ;-)
-
Great camera angles
-
@rifTVAction Cheers, yes using gopro hd hero 1. Only picked it up 3 days before i went to france so was quite happy with the results. If you have a nose through my newest vid ive got a couple of unusual mounting points with some good results(i think). All filmed on a medium setting so things dont take all day to upload and download :-)
-
Great Vid! Are you using a GoPro to film it?
-
@bristolgeezer I didnt spend to much time in Morz but the vid is ok lol
-
@bristolgeezer Im excited for you fella, its that good!! lol I prefer'd Les Gets to Morzine only because the trails had a little more flow to them. I rode everything on my 6" All Mountain bike which was a little bit out of its depth in Morz. But im looking for a big bike to take back :-) They are both on the same mountain though so you can use the Pleney lift(Morz) and ride over to Les Gets or vice verser. The morz footage is between 5:11 - 7:33, will sort a hole vid of Morz soon!

@wel5hy I used "windows live movie maker" on windows 7 as its the only free one i could find that could use MPEG4 vids. I originaly put some music over the vids ive edited but youtube blocked the sound because of copyright laws. But i think ive found a way around it ;-) The last vid ive uploaded has some music.
-
which editing software you use? i got the GOPRO2 end of last year but im finding it hard to edit. You should add some tunes to yours mate....would make a nice touch.
-
@wel5hy Cheers fella! I only got the cam 3 days before the trip so i was well happy with the footage to.
