Forte Clutch Mountain Bike Dropper Post

YouTube Link: Forte Clutch Install and Review

Dropper Post Video — See the Install and Review Here

So I finally got a replacement seat post for my Crankbrothers Kronolog dropper post I have had for years. I didn’t want to spend hundreds of dollars on the new seat post so I took a chance.

I bought the Nashbar Forte Clutch Dropper Post. This post was only $109 and is perfect for my bike. I don’t have internal cable routing on my bike so I have to go with an external routed design. This model looks a lot like some of the other brands out there like the PNW Components Cascade Model but is around $80 less.

Have you ever tried riding a skinny that you found on a Mountain Bike Trail? Skinnies are some of my favorite skills features to take on when biking. I still remember the 1st time riding a skinny in Bentonville AR more than 9 years ago.

Now my local bike park has 13 of them. In this video Chad and I try and take on all of them. Can we ride them all?

Backpack Mini Kicker Ramp

HOW TO BUILD A BACKPACK MINI KICKER RAMP: Bring Your Mountain Bike Kicker Ramp Anywhere

This weeks video is at Walnut Springs. I wanted to build a mini kicker ramp to practice jumping but I wanted it to be portable. Seth’s bike hacks built a mini kicker several year ago that seemed to be the perfect height.

Here is his video: https://youtu.be/4j2JnSnCsPU

However it didn’t have a way to hold it. I wanted to improve on his design. Check out the latest Walnut Springs video to see how I made this ramp and also how I made it portable.
