    Felt Compulsion

    in reply to: Full Suspension Question #240923

    I have been running 30% sag front and rear for years and typically only use about 80-90% travel on a typical ride. My rides are a mixed bag of smooth flow trails, studdery fire roads and rocky sections with small to medium jumps thrown in to keep things challenging. I prefer the softer suspension off the top of the travel.

    Hi Chris. I have a couple of mountain bikes with wheels that have fairly aggressive bead locks around the inside. I use a vise to pinch the tire together and then push the wheel over until the tire pops off the bead. I’m always careful not to leverage the wheel against the top of the vise, so as not to damage the wheel. BTW, these are carbon wheels. It’s been the only way that’s worked for me so far.

    Knock-on-wood, I haven’t had to repair a flat trailside…yet. Hope that helps.
