I'm not anti innovation, but I am pro choice. Having choices removed is a step backwards IMO.

gonna catch some downvotes for this but man Santa was already making the most boring bikes for "rad dads" out there in either various shades of vomit or colorways trying too hard to appeal to the cool kids (watermelon nomad lol), going wireless only is making them even less appealing to me. yeah free bearings etc and the build quality is good from what I've seen, but they lost all their coolness factor at the latest when Roskopp left, now it's just a lifeless husk for PON to milk the bikers who want to overcompensate by means of the name...

if really wireles only they will lose a lot customers… most people i know only buy frames and are re-use their existing highend parts on a new bike.

integrated head tube badge Revolutionary.

sets $6k aside for both I'll so gladly trade NX for Deore (*edit), +1 to the Status launch being way more exciting than the stumpy. Accessible 26" parts will be perfect for my Sunday rebuild too. Go big S!

Can we move on from whether we like chainstays or not now please Look here’s Kris Kyle on the new Status

Video of the Bike Yoke wireless dropper Edit: added pic, looks like charging port on collar?

Slightly underwhelming. Shame, but glad they're still around.

Local dealer said new Status is next, 2 models a 140mm and a 170mm. The 170mm is going to be dual crown compatible. Apparently, will be out in about 3 weeks. Pretty sure both will allow mechanical shifting too 😉

Looks like we're back to MTB Brake Rumors and Innovation...

Ahhhhhh sheeeet. Here we go again. Thanks Sim.

For the sake of not derailling the thread any more I am not gonna continue to argue about this. It's a good bike with oddball design choices on release. Let's leave it at that.

so they stick to the crappy lever assembly carbotecture master ugly af master with a very big 12mm piston, huge 19x4mm pistons at the caliper with a very weirdly located bleeding nipple wise choice od the removable cable tho, could never get them just for how ugly and big these things are.

Knollys recent sizing is just not it. Putting someone 5’6” on a bike with a 480 reach is just insane. They are either hoping to turn people off the sport or are just incredibly insecure and trying to prove something.

Lets not fan boy too hard on these I have a V1, and V2 OneUp dropper that are not exceptions to the rule when it comes to both reliability, or standouts for OneUps customer relations. Both are known to be questionable (looking at you bushing that literally eat themselves) and any PB or NSMB review went on to claim them as the best thing since sliced bread, when PNW stuff quietly worked better, and were better to their customers. I'll reserve any opinion on these hubs for actual long term reviews. As a side note, I'm a fan of OneUp...

Oneup lost me when I saw they use a cassette locking as a bearing retainer - "Getting the lockring to catch the threads can be a bit finicky. Spinning the lockring backwards until it catches and drops into the start of the threads in the hub shell will help align it." Queue the home mechanics stripping those threads and writing off the hub. Otherwise it does look good. It's quite cool what they've done with the ratchet allowing the spring to recess into it. I wonder if they'll offer other engagement options down the line.

April fools must happen at the end of June in Olney.

really? americans not giving a shit about recycling? color me shocked!

If hired for the role of product advisor at Kona, I promise to bring back a bike with 420mm chainstays, 26 inch wheels, and rasta colorway. For the culture.
