  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

new clutch lever

i just added the "mountain engineering " clutch lever to my 2011 txc449, it does reduce the pull atleast 50%.
i'm surprised i never thought of it really.
i'm hoping it helps in the real tight singletrack.
i'll post back after this weekend.

just looked it up. So, takes less energy to pull? Does it change the pull ratio? Is it like a 1/4 turn throttle or something?
 
Fitted mine last week and raced with it, big difference just using two fingers, no arm pump and more control, definitely recommend them.
 
ok i used mine today to run some single track, it really makes a difference. the pull is very lite and i had no problems today riding single track for three hours with this lever.
my one thing is with it being alittle shorter it was hard finding a spot to tighten it down at so that it did not ride on my finger when pulled in.
i do think its a worth wild addition.

They probably just changed the fulcrum point making it easier to pull by changing the point at which it pivots.
 
just ordered the clutch and brake levers. you guys are killing me, already at $3000 in mods and I haven't even hit the trails with the bike yet.
 
rode my txc449 again today after tweaking the rear suspension, now with the clutch lever and correct suspension settup it is awesome to ride.
guys your gonna love the clutch levers.
