Yup, gotta turn the front wheel but works well. And beer was solid. Love the clear stuff.

Did you install yourself? I've never had leaks like that on XTs

No, LBS always did it, the leakers were M50, not XT, that's what I'm buying now XT

Not jockey wheels but have their BB on road bike and is spectacular.
What makes it...spectacular?

I've read in several places that their BB is bomb-proof and will follow you from bike to bike. When I changed mine, I couldn't swallow the price so I just went with another "disposable" one.
This sounds like a threat....

Increases my cadence by 2%, definitely worth it

Replacing the spokes on the rear wheel with these STRONG spokes. Exciting!
While Kogel bearings are considered trash by the "real" ceramic companies since they are hybrid ceramic, Kogel makes super solid products. I have 36,000 miles on their PF30 bottom bracket, however I did change the bearings at around 18,000 (to their bearings). This is a stark contrast to any other BB I have personally own'ed, including the Chris King PF30 that lasted less than 1000 miles.
I have two sets of the pulleys, which I got more for the durability of aluminum over the composite trash that shimano and sram use. Best part is you can easily service the bearings and have them feel like new. If you get them free with a BB, its kind of a no brainer.
Also, @Santapez I was going to defend @qclabrat position on these bb's until the cadence post lol

Last weight weenie upgrade for the time being. Should be fine on a medium saddle but we'll find out quickly.

After much hemming and hawing, looking at every option out there and changing my mind too many times, I decided to pull the trigger on an EXT V4 coil for my Druid. Their customer service was super helpful with shock selection/tune and even sent me a loaner V3 to use since this one was going to take longer than expected to get to me. I never installed the loaner due to work travel but now it's time to test this one out.
Was searching for a 150mm dropper for my Occam.

Hopefully it’s not sticky like mine. It gave me problems from day 1 but I pushed through it, and now it’s to the point it needs service. Still under warranty I just need to get coordinated.

Yeah, didn’t help. A lot of the recent transfers have this problem, plenty of complaints on all of the forums.
I grabbed a used e13 as a backup, will see how it performs tonight.
