Personally, I found myself getting injured easier and easier every year growing "older" (I'm still only on my 30s). Whether it was neck pains from working on the desk or leg injuries from falling on BMX or a mountain bike.

It's been a year now I've been training multiple times a week in gym, sessions with PT, group trainings and solo, and kinda starting to enjoy it - looking forward for the next training session even if it's just 2 days apart.

Join the celebrations by bringing traditional drinks, such as Molotov's cocktails, to Russian embassy near you!

I honestly don't know what's going on there. The sole mod and contributor of the community keeps posting low quality shit purely to bash on Linux and people kept calling him out in the posts and getting banned from the comm for that.

Now I noticed the same mod has just locked comments on all posts to prevent having to ban anyone commenting on their memes

About to start 2 hours drive to home after spending Christmas with the family from my wife's side. I'm tired and full of food

~50 km away another (same type) bike for comparison

And small earlier type (~1936)

Hey all, do we have any suspension nerds here?

I have some annoying troubles with the rear suspension on my 2017 Focus Vice trail bike. The shock is Rockshox deluxe select R with max tokens inside and 250psi air pressure (~20% sag)

Long story short, I keep bottoming out the rear suspension regularly on jumps and drops way easier than I'm comfortable with, but with the amount of pressure in the shock the ride starts feeling pretty harsh as well

So what I've thought as options, but might need some more validation:

• bigger bike and/or bike with more progressive suspension curve

Eh, don't really want to replace bike I otherwise love

• different shock?

Not sure what I would look there tbh, also gets pricy but not as bad as a whole new bike

• messing with the shock tune

The shock doesn't have externally adjustable high/low speed compression, but perhaps could adjust the shim stack? This is completely alien stuff for me so some ideas/advice would be appreciated

• there's a megneg air can upgrade kit available for the shock

This increases the negative volume giving more mid-strike support, plushier initial feeling and more bottom out force using less tokens as claimed by rockshox. This upgrade kit is not terribly expensive, but is it worth if I'd better be going with a new shock anyways?
