Specialized Problem

[darren]

Guy's, Ive just got myself a big hit DH with all the candy. But i seem to be having a problem keeping the frount wheel firmly on the ground when hurtling downhill( when i say firmly, i mean that the frount wheel feels realy loose and tends to slide out on corners). does any other big hit riders suffer from the same problem,is this due to the fact that the rear wheel is smaller or should i just a dapt to my new bike and come up with a new riding position/style?

Could be a suspension tuning or body positioning thing moreso than anything else. Spend the time to tune both before you go changing anything major.

Yeah sounds more like a suspension or tyre issue to me... make sure your suspension is soft enough, rebound is fast enough, tyres are good ones (what are ya running? If you're not already, try a Maxxis Minion Front in Slow Reezaay compound) and are at low enough pressure etc.
