Can you confirm the last part about the Specialized Enduro? Everything I’ve heard says there isn’t a replacement in the near term. Stumpy is getting an update mid year, but the industry people I’ve spoken to haven’t heard anything about the enduro replacement.
I heard it was 17.99/19.49
Hows that for rumours
Again, why would any insiders be spreading news about a new model when they can’t sell out of the old ones? It’s exactly what I was saying.
Also, there was an article on that other site about their patent for a new 170 mm bike…
By insiders I mean people I know personally.
I’ve been told there is a new stumpy a few months away, but those same people are unaware of any new Enduro coming.
Have you heard specifically there is a new Enduro ready to drop but they are holding off to wait for old stock to die down?
They did this with the Levo, and had stock sitting in warehouses for months before releasing it, but it was hardly a secret.
Sram maven press kit already on mail.
Also mentioned on the sram service website
Trek did the same with the Slash then released it anyway alongside the old one
The description refers to a repair kit that also includes seals, so why is mineral Maven being replaced here along with the brakes on DOT?
Or am I misunderstanding something?
It's just the service launch page, DOT and mineral brakes are in there.
Wow, big numbers! Haven’t seen another 4-pot brake with pistons bigger than 17mm…
A reviewer?
My money would be on PM
With how many tweaks the big S does to the Stumpy I would be surprised if they *don't* always have a new one on the way.
New Enduro is waiting to clear stock for sure. You can only assume they don't want to end up in the mess Trek is in selling current gen and previous gen side by side.
Cascade comp NorthFork brake caliper uses 16 and 18mm pistons
This one?
edit:
they kidnapped my wife and made me burn the pic
Formula's Cura 4 uses four 18mm pistons per caliper
That's from Cam @NSMBs Yeti SB160 review. No mention of the brakes in it.
From the other site. In the video they keep referring to “the good brakes” on Kaz’s bike
Just in case the Dreadnought post disappears again, taking all quotes with it, I love the colourway "Fatty T". Great beer! Again, I hope they have a "Sh***y Kitty" colour as well.
For those that don't know the Fatty T reference, a beer from Vancouver Island not far from Forbidden headquarters
Thanks for that. The "Sh***y Kitty" reference refers to this bevarage:
Fuel of whistler lifties
Fatty T's and Sh*#y kitty needs Daddy Seabus.

Sorry, my bad - was under the impression the Cura 4 utilizes 17mm pistons.
Any further news on turbo levo ( gen4). Seems like its stock sell out time. Local reliable people don’t seem to have news o. Dates
You have to remove the crankset to change the pads
Anyone have more news on the updated Altitude? When is it dropping, roughly?
I saw a very finished looking carbon bike with a paint job I didn’t recognize in one of Remi’s stories. Also think it will have headset cups like the stumpy evo.
