X-Fusion Suspension for 2010/2011

April 16th, 2010

X-Fusion Vengeance at Sea Otter, Posted on Pinkbike April 16 2010

I am not one for pushing a product I do not own, that I don’t know anyone who owns one, nor do I in any way gain anything from this… but wow. Do the internals on this new X-Fusion fork not look like they will stand the test of time? Not much in the way of plastic like others I have seen… interesting “Sealed Open Bath” system too. Maybe worth a look? Any Guinnea Pigs out there? » Read more: X-Fusion Suspension for 2010/2011

2010 Island Cup Race Series

April 15th, 2010

Island Cup SeriesFor those of you who don’t know, the first DH race of the season in the Island Cup is running this weekend April the 18th in Cumberland BC. I have ridden the Cumberland DH course (ridden not raced) and it is fast and fun with some pedaly spots in the middle for the good burn! I know there are a number of VIMB regulars racing this one, as Cumberland and the Comox valley are of course where many of our favorite trails on Vancouver Island are located. Good luck to everyone racing this weekend!

Check out the Island Cup website for all of the details on all the races….XC, DH, Marathon and of course, the SuperD.
