Sram has Black Box, Propain has Hot Box..

is there a tire forum thread

Renthal bar and stem. Video is 4+ years old.

Wow, I guessed stem for their Era contest. This is nearly as useless.

Vorsprung "Telum"

I'm curious what you guys are stoked about with the 2.5 over 2.4?

Fascinating conversation, y’all

Those look dead on the Lewis LH4

Santa Cruz wants their homework back

Asked my Ibis dealer when I could demo a Ripmo (they sold their V2s fleet and have none today) and they told me "we've built them." I asked when I could ride one, and they said "not yet, but soon". So it sounds like Ibis dealers have the new Ripmo and I'm hoping it's a mere days away...

Honestly feel bad factory riders have to run that awful gold fork. Looks terrible on 95% of bikes.

I think the telly tale sign that the reach is too long is when you see a load of headset spacers under the stem

The main problem is that e-bikes just aren't a great product yet. . The controllers and displays are meh. The motors are noisy and are expensive to service and water ingress is a huge problem. Warranties are very high on e-bikes components. Servicing the rest of the bike is often a nightmare because of the cable routing with the battery motor combo. You pay $8k for a product that is OK at best, and potentially shite and needs a warranty or major service fee in it's first year. They're just not a mature product yet IMO.

I thought you guys all liked orange stuff because of Trump. Or just buy a different colour/brand

I totally agree, I have a set of WAO Unions that are still perfectly straight after 2 seasons of riding, and I prefer the steeper tech trails. Also just ordered a set of the convergence wheels w/hydra hubs for $1263 out the door with their march madness sale. The Raceface wheels looks nice but don't see any reasons to move from WAO especially for the price difference. I would imagine most people buying these wheels are probably buying them for their strength/lifetime warranty moreso than trying to shave grams off their bike build.

No thats a new headset for internally routed cables

I’m xenophobic for not wanting shitty knock off brakes made in a sweatshop? Ight cool lol.
