F150 with 5500 GVW dual axle camper trailer. Blue Ox sway pro hitch.
When fully hooked up I've got trailer leveled to 24 1/2" at rear and 24 1/4" front from level grade, so only 1/4" low at front. Thinking that darn good.
But I get some rear squat on F150. 1 1/2" at rear axle (38" unhitched, 36 1/2" hooked up) and 1/2" lift at front axle (36 3/4" unhitched, 37 1/4" hooked up).
Is this OK?
THIS IS UNUSUAL REQUEST
Wanna try braid for ultra micro line, not leader or tippet !!!, for euro/tightline flyfishing nymphing.
When you go this thin for flyfishing you're not traditionally flycasting but pretty much gear casting, the fly/nymph is the weight in the system like a light lure.
Pretty sure I want a coated or fused braid due to increased stiffness. Casts are generally 30ft or less, seeking maximum contact, minimum tip wrap/tangles.
Very familiar with most nylon and fluoro but know zippo about braid.
Ideas?
Apologies in advance, this will definitely be ranty, but I truly can't figure out where MTB will be in 5, 10, 20 years.
Presently, trails are being smoothed while bike suspension gets better, riders are driving their vehicles with ebikes on racks to trailheads 5 min pedal from home/hotel/etc., funding for expensive machine-built trails is easy to get while hand-built trailbuilders are getting too old or disillusioned.
Will there ever be a rebound to natural techy true singletrack or will MTB end state be smooth flow only?
WR250R. Cautious rider on gravel logging roads in BC Rocky Mountains 98% of time. 1% highway. 1% double or single track. D606 on rear.
Pirelli MT Rallycross 90/90-21 is standard recommendation but can't find any less than 150% usual price. Looking for other good options for my specific use.
Looking for help re a NDA signed by my town with a land developer that the town took to court for unauthorized actions. After the 3rd court date postponement a NDA was quietly reached.
Questions are if a citizen can request town financial statements that may show a payment from developer to town?
