First Look: Knolly's New Warden Carbon - Eurobike 2015 http://www.pinkbike.com/news/knolly-warden-carbon-eurobike-2015.html
Han sacado la chilcotin en version 27.5 Delirium http://knollybikes.com/bikes/delirium Aunque es más corta que la Chilcotin está pensada para llevar una horquilla de 180 y tiene 167 de recorrido. No luce nada mal en color naranja
Y 3.8 kg con el Fox de aire. Esto parece anunciar el fin de la comercialización de la Chilcotin y Endorphin de 26 quedando solo la gama de 27.5 y esperando ¿? que actualicen la Podium a 27 también. Lógico, en breve no vamos a poder comprar cubiertas de 26 para enduro y DH
Una comparativa entre el sistema 4x4 y el single pivot http://forums.mtbr.com/knolly/chilcotin-27-5-a-927450.html#post11403681 Not a Transition, but I went from a Turner TNT single pivot directly to a Knolly. I've been on Knolly's ever since and have no desire to go back to a single pivot bike. The 4x4 prioritizes traction above all else. I find the bike climbs tech better, descends better, brakes better, and overall just feels better. There is a bit of a learning curve with Knolly's though. A few things to consider: 1. Body position - you will be heavily rewarded for riding aggressively. You need to keep your elbows out, chest down, and keep your weight centered on the bike. With my Turner, I would ride off the back when things got techy, however, with a Knolly you need to be centered. It feels strange at first, but pays off in increased speed and control over both the front and rear wheel. 2. Braking - The TNT system would squat when braking, causing the BB to drop, HA to slacken, and allow the bike to settle. It also stiffened up the suspension which could cause a loss of traction. The 4x4 truly stays active and braking doesn't upset the geometry. It took a bit of time to get used to because I would often have to use english on the TNT system to maintain traction. Now I just grab a fist full of brake. 3. Stiffness - Knolly's are stupid stiff. When I first started out, I would at times have traction issues when riding off camber granite slabs that were rough. The Turner would flex and allow the bike to maintain traction. The Knolly was so stiff that the rear wheel would follow the front. Initially I thought this was a bad thing, but realized that proper body position fixed it. Not to mention how they rip around corners. 4. Suspension setup - You can setup the 4x4 to be poppy, or plowy, whichever works. The Chilcotin is more of a bruiser, where the Warden and Endo benefit from a more spritely, poppy suspension setup. Word on the street is that the Warden plays the role of a bruiser in a very light, poppy setup, best of both worlds. 5. Shocks - Not sure about Transition, but Turner always ran high compression shocks. Knolly runs a low compression/low rebound tunes as the linkage handles the work. This translates to a shock that is less stressed, will be more reliable, will generate less heat, and be more stable and reliable on extended descents.
En esta web puedes ver por cuanto te va a salir la broma de montarte una bici (no solo esta knolly) y el peso con muchos componentes a elegir. http://www.wrenchscience.com/ Lastima que no este aun la lyrik 27.5
Pena de ser pobre tendria una en el garaje junto a otras para que mentir Compi por si quieres sacar fotos se ve cada una que... bueno http://www.pinkbike.com/forum/listcomments/?threadid=160315&pagenum=7
un poco de #bikeporn a mi en naranja me parece preciosa y este montaje una pasada para disfrutar de un bikepark
Se sabe algo acerca de una posible Delirium carbon ? Creo que sería cacharro brutal... me molaría probar una Knolly , su sistema tiene que ser super sensible !
