It’s interesting hiw different people’s perceptions can be, but i have a totally different approach to my Oregon set up:
First off, 40psi is a road tire pressure. I run 10psi and weigh 200#, have run as much as 14psi but it felt too firm. The Larry is designed to be a high volume, low pressure tire, so to get the true benefits of it’s amazin shock absorptio , you need to drop hat pressure by a whole lot, otherwise it’ll be underwhelming.
Second is frame and hub width being 25mm wider than a standard KH/Nimbus hub. I like extra width becuase it keeps my legs from rubbing on the seat and it seems to keep my taint from getting as sore. I’m inclined to believe that a wider stance may be more comfortable on longer rides as well.
Third, the marvelous disc brake, more than just a change in the brake style, the disc brake is unaffected by water crossings and mud, unaffected by out of true rims, and it has more power wih less lever effort han a Magura. I can literally ride with one finger on the disc brake lever and no other part of my hand touching the seat, whereas with Maguras i have to hold the seat s i depress the brake lever because it takes that much more effort to depress and to control braking
Finally there’s crank length, where obviously there is a huge difference in preferencesI ride some pretty steep and rough terrain, sometimes i literally have to stall and restart, so short cranks on such a large wheel are a no go. I think shorter cranks might work if i were doing flatter rides or mosly downhill.
In terms of set up, the only difference between the Nimbus seat and the KH seat are the covers; KH are removeable. The new Nimbus cranks are very nice, same quality as Moments, but lighter and less Q Factor. The brakes are very nice quality, i only changed to Shimano because i wanted black.
Also, i tried to set up an Avid BB5 and it was too wide, so after doing some more “review” i’m of the mind that mechanicals brakes are just too wide to fit between the cranks and spokes.
I rode with a buddy today, his Oregon is on the way, so of course he wanted to ride mine. S much fun, like little kids on candy shop, comparing how various unis ride. He was on a KH 24 x 3, me on the Oregon, we switched on and off, it was no contest, the Oregon was easier, faster, and more capable on rough terrain, both climbing and descending. I was abel to ride over; not hop, but ride over logs that were 10-12" tall, not something i could do even with a 26 x 3.
The Oregon is a great uni, but seriously, do yourself a favor and drop that tire pressure, it’s not a 36er
