Not really, cause you will always have to remove your wheel, clean up inside the caliper and reset the pistons... Top loading is a bit pointless.

It's funny how Rock Shox has 2 excellent Youtube videos showing step by step how to perform maintenance on the VIVID 5.1 and 4.1, to the very last detail.. It does require few special tools, but they do make it available for everybody to do it themselves. I happen to have a complete guide to service the DHX 5.. Is it indeed a pita, but do-able.

The way the article was written, like saying "Intense" on almost every sentence, does make it look like a paid commercial... Yet, nice bike.

Yup, there is a problem, your shock will bottom out pretty hard damaging the bushings and possibly the frame. It's okay to get a longer stroke spring, like a 3.0 in your specific case, never never ever a shorter one!

But i'm shure the team manager is pulling some good money... Good mechanichs are hard to find for a reason!

Metric please! Or I'll have to pull the adjustable wrench. I'm not amused.

It's "vise" by the way. Vice is an addiction.

I got a carbon saddle off eBay for $75. It has no padding at all and weights only 65 grams. That thing hurts so bad that i had to swap back with my old 190gr Funn lite.. But still pretty light..

That's a 2006 model.

"woobling side to side". Well, that sounds more like lack of maintenance (check every single bolt before you ride) than product fail. You fail buddy, cause if you look around, most people never had any problems with Race Face cranks, as long as you make shure everything is nice and snug before every ride.

Hey Waki.. I've been following your comments for quite a while now, and here's the challenge: Can you keep it under 15 words or less?
