• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

Race sag

Recommend sag for wr300 rear shock. And cutting bars to comfortable width for jersey trails.
 
Thought it was 100mm or 4 inches when on the bike... Sure others have more or less.
My bars are so narrow no one else will ride my bike lol
 
Rear suspension, 35mm static 100mm race , with no more than 10mm spring preload are the base industry standard for linkage bikes.
If your numbers are in that range you are ok, preload play from there can give you the chopper feel (higher race sag number) or the push feel (lower sag number).

Balance is the most important issue, the front needs to be correct as well. There is a complete sag thread here in the café somewhere and it follows the pro tuners standards pretty much to the number.
