Wolf Tooth Precision Headset - Dec. 6, 2018, 8:34 a.m.

All good points. Even though it's tons of SKUs for the Works approach, thinking that Wolftooth's machining ability might make it possible. If they came up with a new approach that was better than an Angleset, that would be awesome! I'm in Minnesota, so I'll make sure to bug those guys if I see 'em ;)

It'd be awesome if Wolftooth starting doing angle-adjust and/or reach adjust headsets. Would be nice to have an alternative to paying in pounds and shipping from the UK.

WTB Vigilante & Trail Boss Tire Review - Dec. 3, 2018, 11:30 a.m.

Any tradeoffs from the DHF WT? From the review it sounds like maybe just braking? Or would you say the Vigilante is just a better front tire?

Also, seems like 510 could also offer some different sole versions on their models. Seems like it would be possible to dial back the grip a little in the name of durability. I know that's kinda what the Stealth xvi vs. regular stealth was, but I wear them both out supper fast. Even the little dot soles on the DJ shoes wear out super fast in my experience. Just got a pair of the OG freeriders and those soles feel a little more robust. If that's true, that sole on the new Freerider Pro upper would be SICK

I realize I'm wanting to have my cake and eat it too, but hoping more for durability for the rubber compound (and sacrificing some grip) rather than getting at durability for a thicker sole. I really like the pedal feel from the thinner soles like Freerider/Freerider Pro.

I love my Freerider Pros, but would trade some grip for durability. I'm all the way through the rubber after 30 some rides

Is the noticeably shorter just when seated or noticeably shorter when standing/descending as well?

Interesting. From playing with this a bit, over-forking (increasing axle to crown) seems to have a much bigger impact than angleset adjustments. In fact, it was giving me a longer reach when i plugged in a -1.5 headset. I'm guessing that was just a bug in the calculator.

For example, for my 2016 Process 134, it's showing about 1cm reduction in reach for my 10 mm over-fork plus additional axle to crown from the bigger lower cup on my -1.5 Cane Creek Angleset

Is the reach shorter just from the offset top cup being physically further back in the headtube? Or is it more a result in the change in geo from the reduced HA? Or is that the same thing? Any idea how much reach is reduced when slackening? Or is it so bike dependent there's not a rule of thumb?

thanks!

Self contained lights are sweet but the run time is really reduced in the extreme cold (Minnesota winter)
