Stoked to see a hard compound 29" DH casing DHR2 in 2.5". 100% that will be my next rear tire purchase for my one-size-fits-most Enduro/trail/XC/DH bike

My best guess is that used to be Maxxis’s traditional sizing from the 26” days. It was 2.35,2.5,2.7. So, everyone is stoked on the one tenth of an inch bigger because it’s what we all used to know and be comforted by.
Just got an email from Cane Creek about a new product reveal at 9 AM tomorrow. Looks like a new USD fork. May have to try it but it will take a lot to make me like it over my Trust Message. Love that fork!

I saw a teaser page somewhere the other day and there was a shot of a gravel rider... Not exactly holding my breath that it's an MTB product

The 2.5" DHR2 has been around the race pits for years as a pro-only tire, so it's exciting to see it finally released to mere mortals like us. The 2.4 DHR is a noticeably smaller casing than any of Maxxis 2.5 tires, which makes it kind of a weird match when you're running one of each. I'm running a 2.5 Assegai up front and a 2.4" DHR2 in the back, so I'd totally buy a 2.5" DHR2 when mine wears out. Of course it doesn't matter much, it's 0.1", but I'm a fanboy and I'd rather have the bigger volume tire in the back. Thus the humor when I said "This is the biggest tech news in MTB for the whole year." Very much inside baseball.

Looks like flat mount brake attachment in that teaser.
Nooo! leave flat mount brakes to the roadies. I suppose I already have my cut down 5mm allen wrench that's worthless for anything else. But come on, just don't do it.

Probably a gravel fork for the drop bar 90s mtb revival

My experience has been that 2.4 WT and 2.6 WT have the same sized tread blocks, just spaced differently, so I assume 2.5 would fit in the middle?
I bought a 2.3 because 2.4 WT was out of stock recently and the tread blocks are noticeably smaller, so it might depend whether the 2.5 is WT.
The DHX has a larger shaft size so can effect ride feel. Frameworks most is most likely on a custom tune, so the limited HSC/HSR adjusters probably aren’t a big deal.
Heard it said the new Red will be 13spd too. No idea about release dates.
That's difficult to have work when a T-Type cassette to be assumed given mention before this 'heard said' only fit UDH frames and then only a T-Type derailleur. There's not a single UDH fitment road frameset.

Something or nothing?

Beat me to it. Cami is a Fox athlete, strange she doesn’t recognize it. Also, the reservoir looks a bit longer than the usual, no?
It looks just like a DHX. He might be trying different tunes for Fox. Or might be trying something custom (Avalanche or the likes).
He responded and said it's a dhx.
He got asked why not a dhx 2 and Neko said he liked the numbers they were getting with the dhx tuned for the bike.
All that makes sense to me, if the shock is tuned for the rider/ bike combo there is less need for the extra adjustment of the x2.

Is anyone able to answer? Not for the lols
Maxxis has a guy who just eyeballs tire widths anyway…cracks me up with “2.40,” as in between 2.39 and 2.41…

Add in the Gold TRP Levers/Calipers and you've got another mismatch lol.

Are any of you interested in gravel and road leaks?
Reply from Neko to Cam.

Nope.There hasn't been any evolution in road cycling since they switched to disc brakes...as for gravel well that's just old school mtb.
Yea if anyone cares T-Type 13 speed is coming to road/gravel later this year.
Only if they've just discovered something we've been using for years like disc brakes or tubeless or 1x or suspension or dropper posts or...
A dropper would be nice for the tuck but I imagine it wouldn't leave much room for a hidden motor in the seat post.
How? Isn't new SRAM Red releasing in a couple weeks in May?
Heard it said the new Red will be 13spd too. No idea about release dates.
Vorsprung shock release Thursday?
That's difficult to have work when a T-Type cassette to be assumed given mention before this 'heard said' only fit UDH frames and then only a T-Type derailleur. There's not a single UDH fitment road frameset.

Nice Hat.
UDH road frames DO exist. A buddy of mine sold a few dozen to a company that makes bike parts over the winter.
