Mt.Nebiso Dec.8

Mt.Nebiso, agin today. We 5 riders got together.

My friend's Intense Tracer 2 with Kashima.

This Tracer 2 was changed the Fox RP23 rear shock from non Kashima to Kashima. The fork is 2013 Fox 36 Talas Kashima. The spec must be full.
Our bikes have 6 inch travels. Here at Nebiso trail, we ride on pavement 12km in about 1 hour and dirt in 3 hours including rests. We reach a conclusion at this moment that a 6-inch bike is useful on both climbing and descending.
I found a flat tire on rear when I came back home. I have fixed it before but the patch fixed seems to be worn. If the tire recovers by sealant, I check and see a few days. I used a big patch to prevent the leakage regardless of the wounded part which is 7mm wide outside, 5mm wide inside. But luckily 3 days after, the air leakage stopped and the tire recoverd by itself. I didn't need to remove the tire and add some sealant again.
