    2018 Alta MXR Shock Re-Spring and Re-Valve

    If you are only an hour and a half from highland park I’ll see you next winter! I assume you got it from them? That’s where I did my demo ride. I would have bought one of their 2017’s if I had been ready to buy. Steve

    2018 Alta MXR Shock Re-Spring and Re-Valve

    Nice! I think your dog is going to get docked a few positions for cutting the track though... We typically do a Florida trip each winter, and also hit Highland Park or Durhamtown in Georgia along the way. I’ll see how far you are from our typical route and if it works out we will come by and...

    2018 Alta MXR Shock Re-Spring and Re-Valve

    That’s a good looking facility! Can you get 240v hookups installed awhile ;)?!

    2018 Alta MXR Shock Re-Spring and Re-Valve

    Nice graphics! Personally I’d love to participate in a Alta owner track day if it was reasonable for me attend. That’s great of you to put that out there. I’m in Pennsylvania, my vacation days for this year are pretty much spoken for, but if you would end up making it a reoccurring thing I’d...

    European/Australian generators

    I was wondering if there was a way to transfer power from another type of battery. Maybe in the future we will see this type of thing.

    2018 Alta MXR Shock Re-Spring and Re-Valve

    Yes, it’s good to know we have some members who appear to know a thing or two about suspension set up. This is my first air fork bike, that and the fact that getting to the shock spring is so stupid easy means I’ll be more apt to play with settings than I normally would. Philip, did you find...

    You’ll have to excuse my ignorance but what is a Powerwall?

    European/Australian generators

    Thanks for the links. I think the overall price will be too prohibitive in the end but I’ll look into it some more. 20 pounds could be a big difference if you are having to load it yourself!

    I’ll do some research and report back. Thanks for your input!

    European/Australian generators

    Thanks Ray, I appreciate your input. I edited my first post to reflect your suggestion. I currently have a typical Lowes/Home Depot backup generator that I used when I was away with the Alta. There are some out there, like the one you referenced, that are a little smaller, a little lighter...

    European/Australian generators

    I keep thinking these would be the ticket for Alta owners, so I’m thinking out load here for the sake of discussion. Since our 240v generators here in the states are mostly all the large home backup power type, and since as Ray had mentioned the new fast charger only requires 16 amp draw on...

    MXR Kickstand

    Great write up, thank you. I think there are some growing pains they will hopefully overcome as things progress.

    Questions from a potential owner

    I think most people are under the same impression. Philip, or should I call you “two Alta Phil” now :p, you should be able to give us some excellent first hand comparisons between the two!

    Questions from a potential owner

    I was following a discussion where someone contacted Alta and asked what range difference could be expected between the MXR and the EX (which should then be the same as the MX). Alta allegedly replied that the range of the bikes would be identical if ridden the same way. The difference with...

    What is your favorite piece of gear?

    Actually I am not currently using a brace, I just use Leatt enduro guard knee guards. They are pretty good on there own but unless you have all the Velcro straps perfectly in place after you pull your pants up over them they will be a constant annoyance. The socks take care of all that. A...

    What is your favorite piece of gear?

    Not saying which is the most important, but what one thing do you say "man I like this" every time you put it on? For me it's knee brace socks, I have a pair of Fox Racings product and I love them. Keeps the knee braces (and even knee guards!) from rubbing against your skin and the socks stay...

    SXS Skidplate/Slideplate

    As a follow up on this skid plate I must say I love the fact that it covers the linkage as well. My last ride was in a tacky muddy situation and that usually requires concentrated pressure washing to get it all out of the linkage, which you always run the risk of forcing water into those...
