I think the old DT/Hugi 240 hubs were designed and built with so much emphasis on weight saving, that long term durability may have been sacrificed. I can't really speak for the newer DT Swiss 240S models, as I have never owned one. In Dt/Hugi's defense, I did use that hub for over twenty years, and it's been laced to two different rims in that time. I'm also significantly heavier than I was twenty years ago. Hah hah! I have since re-laced that rim to a new DT Swiss 350 hub, and it's still rocking and rolling along! Cheers!

Duh, further thoughts from an idle mind. Part 1 indicates the initial 'firm' setting was an 80/50 combination. That suggests the second 'soft' attempt was a 70/60, which further suggests you might have settled on 70/70 as best working for you. Right? Apparently, the nominal numbers are not indicative of the resistance value of the individual elastomers, nor are the values linear, or 80+50=130 would feel a lot like 70+60=130 and both would feel softer than 70+70=140.

Not cracked. Just lightly coated with Buzzy’s Slik Honey lubricant, then slid right into place with only fingertip pressure. No trouble or hassle at all. It’s still working perfectly today. Perhaps your stem has a defect. Contact the manufacturer.

Instructions state you must install in situ, so you can do just this, apply downward pressure so bolt lines up. It says you must not try to install off the bike!

I think you’re going to enjoy it once you get it dialed in. Have fun!

@@prestachuck2867 Unfortunately I broke the internal screw, I think it's ruined. I'm gonna take to the local shop to see if they can fix my stupid mistake.....I'm so disappointed in myself.

sorry to be so offtopic but does anyone know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account? I was dumb forgot the password. I would love any tricks you can offer me.

@Orlando Zyaire Thanks for your reply. I got to the site through google and Im in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

@Orlando Zyaire it worked and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy! Thank you so much you saved my account :D

@Bowie Oscar You are welcome xD

I hope your recovery has gone well, and that you are back out on the bike again. Take care out there! Cheers!

Ease back in a little bit at a time. Wishing you a speedy and complete recovery. Cheers!

Yes! The fork in the video is an Enve Composites 1.0 full-carbon fiber fork. Be sure to use a torque wrench in order to avoid damaging your stem or your fork, and ensure safety. Cheers!

@@prestachuck2867 thank you.

What's the ideal compression plug nut? 2 inches?

@@Sagecellist Check with the fork manufacturer. The ideal expander/compression plug dimensions may vary from one make and model of fork to another.

Eugenio Vazquez Let me know how it works out for you. I’m curious if it would cause control issues when both the stem and shock are in motion, or if it just improves the damping of the front end.

Presta chuck Ok , will keep you updated

Thanks! Hope you're well. I hope to get back into doing more videos in the coming months. I've been working two full time jobs, and just haven't made the time for much new UA-cam content. Keep pedaling, Cheers!

Valentin Kokorin It’s twenty years old.

@@prestachuck2867 hahahaha

@@koko_5662 I've gotten my money's worth out of it. LOL Still, I was surprised.

Same thing happened to my old Specialized Enduro rear hub made by Hugi. Yea, it is old but it broke just sitting in the garage. Crack is twice as big as yours.

Gaatech Yes I am still using the Shockstop Stem, but I have transplanted it to my new gravel bike. So far, it’s perfect!

I just got 80mm

@@lakishaweaks9784 how do you like the 80mm? How tall are you?

I'm 5"3 but have not put on bike yet. I have 110m on my hardtail with 35 up rise bars. That's what made me buy a 2nd 1

I’ve just completed my first mass-start gravel event using the Shockstop stem on my Salsa Journeyman. The course was 31 miles of mostly very chunky gravel and dirt. The stem is amazing! It really made a huge difference in reducing hand, arm, and neck fatigue, while improving ride control!

Leo_inter_Hyaenaem It’s an S-Works Carbon Hover Bar. I am not inflexible. The shape is comfortable to my hands and allows full access to the thumb shifters on my Record levers while riding in the drops or the hoods. I have now ridden the Shockstop Stem twice on consecutive days. I will make another video after I have spent a little more time with it. Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers!

@@prestachuck2867 Thank you, clear. I obviously didn't mean to label you "inflexible". I am. I imagine, the Hover (or, better yet, the AeroFly) would alleviate the neck ache to a measure. Thank you, mate. Cheers. :)

Leo_inter_Hyaenaem No offense taken. I was just trying to convey that I believe the Hover Bar is alao an excellent handlebar for riders who do not have significant limitations as well as those who do. You are most definitely correct. It is one more tool at the disposal of bike fitters, and it’s a very nice handlebar to boot!
