So is that mythical fork a single crown 40? Takes me back to the slalom version of the DHO. I've got a few of those. I used to know people at Rock Shox when they were still in Santa Cruz. Our team at Another Bike Shop got our OG Boxxers before the sponsored riders did. Sorry Peaty.
Is it just me or does the rebound knob cover/assembly look long?
It looks like the castings are significantly longer at the bottom, which would allow for longer stations and thus better bushing overlap. The damper assembly would then also need to be moved down and slightly out of its usual position.

This would be easy to 3d print im not sure why they went with such a sketchy solution?
Reece dad has a metal shop. He said this was the easiest way for him to make a quick version to test before flying to US. He said if they don’t break in the bike bag, they will hold up riding.

True brodozer will have either a dirt bike, DH bike, or enduro bike in the back... But, those last 2 are being replaced by ebikes.. In most of SoCal, there will be an Intense sticker, a FMF sticker, and whatever moto they own sticker.. And, keeping with current trends, the driver will be wearing Pit Vipers..

In response to that insane faring thing on the AON bike. The mechanic said it was so he could get more feel/grip. WHY WHY WHY does it not have grip tape on it then.
Why why why does it not have counter sunk screws from either side?
Yeah that was my next thought. I guess all ideas start somewhere but I’m my opinion showing that off in public is a bad look. It would not be too difficult to use some pan head screws at the very least. Also, make it one piece and fold it over with a nice radius so it can’t slice your gooch wide open.
Idk I’m just a dumb electrician but I feel like I could make a much nicer one with a beer box template some tin snips and the random hardware in my garage.

I really wanna like this, but when he was on a stock bike, he was doing much better than this crazy contraption with all these extra things just to barely make it through Q2 twice this year
Kashima means nothing on brand new forks IMO, the advantage of kashima is that it stays low friction long-term. So not much of a need for it on development forks I suppose?

Now that is interesting. I thought Transmission cassettes and non-flattop chains were a no-go.
I have always wondered....both the chainring and the cassette only touch the inside (not the flat bit) of the chain so I assumed that wouldn't be what affected compatibility, maybe just shift speed. If anything I assumed it was something to do with chain widths that made the compatibility an issue but then the cynic in me says its just an OEM pumping its own stuff. Anyone had any experience on running any old 12spd chain on a transmission setup?

I always assumed the flat top was for strength (i.e. any other differences/incompatibilities are independent of that aspect of the design)

As I have understood it, T-type chains have a slightly larger roller than normal... I wonder if we are seeing a derailleur with UDH mounting combined with existing DH chain and cassette?
Considering the Flat top 12 speed chains are way better and stronger than the old DH chains I figured they would swap to them with the next AXS DH derailleur.

Maybe the true T-type DH cassettes are still being worked on or if they are out there, the numbers are limited... Maybe with a change of pulleys, the new derailleur can play with the current 11 speed chain and DH cassette? Pure speculation on my part..
High, low and now mid speed adjustment 😅

Designers in the GT office in 1996
Yeah brodozer would have the 5.56 sticker 😂
That bike is one that had popped into my head.. Put some modern geometry and parts on that and it's an instant revival for GT..

Azonic so ahead of their time 😂
If this shit takes off I may have to quit bikes. ‘Cause I survived the 00s one time already.

What idiot spec trail casing tires on this

Also from the 90's and the same guy who later founded Zerode bikes! I think a few brands did something similar? Scott and intense come to mind
the top fox enduro rider still skipping the podium… can fox spell FAIL?!
And the first versions of their RAD forks have always been non kashima.
Kashima means nothing on brand new forks IMO, the advantage of kashima is that it stays low friction long-term. So not much of a need for it on development forks I suppose?
Guessing it's just easier to make in black too
From what i understand, Kashima coating isn't exactly a cheap process, so why use it if they are working on something new internally?
Appears the update to the Canfield lithium and tilt was UDH and adjustable chainstay via replaceable dropout. And pepto colorway
Saw a couple SRAM sponsored teams running transmission DH cassettes and Xo1 mechanical with non flat top chain at lake placid WC.
Walked into the Canfield shop a couple weeks back. They are doing lithium / tilt mx flip chips and 8mm I believe chain stay adjustments next year.
On Troy’s vlog looked like he was running wireless drivetrain. Not sure how long that has been the case.
Jackson had a rad 40 in the race. Not sure how long he has been running it either.
