The front triangle looks a bit more generic compared the the current gen frames. It's still a good looking bike but less distinct. The downtube looks relatively slim, so maybe no storage? And I'm really curious if they adopted the boost standard for the rear axle. Can any of the tech experts make a guess based on the photo, or is that impossible?
Also interested in the Ripmo AF, especially if they're going to make it slightly more descend-oriented, like they did last gen.

from the leaked push pic and the ones i posted it's clear that they will have Internal storage, agree though so far i'm not too much of a fan of the headtube design, i loved the previous one that looked like a Viper Bonnet to me. it shouldn't be too far away

The compagny has change of hand recently, the new CEO was at the head of a bike association in the south of France. The association begin in trial but begin his diversification wish a public DJ park, DJ and enduro lesson. They do the same with the company

Prediction for the new Ripmo AF: all frame sizes will come with an 87mm head tube length.

I call it aluminium too but I don't feel like I need to "correct" people about it.
It started out as Alumium but then was later named Aluminum by the guy that first worked on isolating the element, and the name was based on "Alumina" which had been in use for a long time to describe the naturally occuring aluminium salts. Aluminium came after, made up by some random british people, and is pronounced completely differently to the root word. Remind me again which one is more correct...?

calling it that, like not using si units, driving on the left side of the road and having the brakes moto style is just plain wrong.

I seen a post in this thread a while ago, a pro rider seemed to have a taller top cap installed on the air spring side of a D1 Boxxer fork. Tried to search but cant find it. Which rider was it?
Was it the same idea as the Ratio top cap that increases the volume by one token? Any one know much more about it? Has anyone used the Ratio top cap on a Boxxer and can share any thoughts on it?

Yeah I probably should have mentioned the MRP one too since they are pretty much functionally identical to the Ratio one.
I dont think Luca Shaw actually had the MRP one on his fork, looking at the photo, his looks different from the MRP one. I guess that sram probably just made him an in house one at his request or its something they are developing anyway.
I just wondered if the thing on Luca's bike is actually doing the same thing as the Ratio/Noken or if its something different. It doesn't seem like it could really be anything else other than increasing the volume though.

Wonder if this has any correlation to whats being covered on the new zeb lowers

Luca was running something that looked an awful lot like the faux air caps that world cup racers used to use, to disguise the fact they were running a coil conversion in their forks. I wonder if we are seeing that make a comeback, it was a big thing mid 2010s then seemed to fall out of fashion.
The vorsprung coil kit is now dual crown fork compatible.
Unbelievable Evil survived the last years and I am happy to see what's their line up looks like.
New Ibis AL range as well

The whole ski industry loves the titanium alloy named Titanal. Cleary named by a German because you add one space and it’s tit anal
I work for a ski company at the moment that uses titanal. Calling it tit-anal is the highlight of my workday.
Real (I use Siemens products almost every day at work)
Fun fact, despite its name, it’s actually an aluminum alloy.
fun fact: it’s called aluminium

One leaf spring, nothing else... 🤔

I was skeptical until I watched the entire 30 second promo of the downhill scooter
What about damping? Or adjusting stiffness??
Loving the video on the page 😂
EDIT: whoa, lots of aliexpress special on those bikes. Fork and rims on the red one confirmed, probably cranks too.
amazing video lol i am sold

Luca Shaw?
MRP Noken

"No bottom out point on spring it just knows when to stop because its progressive."
Pretty sure it stopped when the bottom bracket hit the ground.
Yeah thats the one thanks! Found the original post now cheers

If you haven't watched it yet, drop everything and watch the 35 second video on the link in the original post (above my comment).
And yes, you need to watch the WHOLE 35 seconds.

Did he get pulled in by the car?
Not quite to the cinematography level of YT/Christopher Walken, but it’s damn close.
Every second that passes it gets a little funnier, I was dead by the end.
