Hi, I have been looking at this bike pretty seriously and wanted to test one but noone in NZ has a test bike from what i can find, could you let me know where i might see one in person or evenm ride one?
Well yeah we have been waiting for the enduro for freaking EVER and we know that will come sooner or later. I didn’t hear specifics but I heard mention of full power long travel, so you could be right about a long travel Levo! I guess it makes sense since the new suspension design specialized has been working on would be hard to integrate a motor into…
I hear Gwin's ebike brand rides ok
New Chromag trail bike was on display in the SRAM booth at Crankworx for part of Saturday. A Google of the Reazon name shows Pinkbike has a launch article ready to drop.
135 travel frame. Steel front with aluminum rear end.
Not sure if that was ever solved, but it looks like there is nothing unusual from inside; however, there still seems to be something hidden on the outside of the left leg (assuming the right leg thing is just a racing chip).
From the horse's mouth:
Reazon – Chromag Bikes
take my $$
People are about to be REAL MAD about the chainstays...
(But also can we please not? https://www.vitalmtb.com/forums/hub/modern-geo-talk-chainstays-stack-re…)
As an XL sized rider, can we talk about how the reaches on XLs from brands north of the border (Norco, Chromag) are passing the 520 mark - still recommended for riders 6’1-6’5?
The chain stays look fun - but this growing reach from just over 500 to the 520s has me wondering… will it ever end? The angles on my Norco sight fit me fine and it’s a slayer on the descents, anyone see this trend happening?
Stays seem like a matter of preference.
There's a multi-page thread about that: https://www.vitalmtb.com/forums/hub/modern-geo-talk-chainstays-stack-re…
Sorry to disrupt geo talk
Saw this this morning
Hmmm, Chromag shirt, Chromag pants, Chromag gloves, Chromag wheels, Chromag saddle. Either it's a clue or it's some high level trolling.
Curious to see who the rider is, that might help narrow down
Well youre wrong. Its obviously a Session.
Looks like prototype Max Grayston has been riding over the past year. I wonder if Chromag will be releasing more bikes during Crankworx?
Dat frame looks very Santa Cruzy to me, including the suspension link and hardware.
The chain stay guard is identical to the lowdown and sticker placements also the same.
Looks like this guy:

I'll have what he's having. Must be great.
I am having fun, thanks for asking. Apparently this is serious bidness for some, sorry for interrupting your program.

Burgtec Clips! Maybe Time Mech
This pictures reminds me that Yeti hasn't updated their SB lineup in a while. If they bring sixfinity to their non e-bike models , that might be the first time I would ever be interested in a Yeti.
bit random.
Garbanzo DH winner Richie Rudd was on a 38. Runner up Ryan Gili was on a Podium. Both on the same team and bike. Both have previously run both.
Different strokes for different folks.
Sram's got a few riders at Leadville on some BlackBox SIDs with fairings.
Where's that Burgtec clip picture from? I've not seen anything about the Burgtec clips since 2016..!

Looks like the revolver is coming on Thursday

Apologies if this was already covered, but this was posted then removed on pinkbike. I can't get access to the original article but it is still indexed on google.
