Yeah, the V10 was always lower link driven and that's why SC wanted to move the whole lineup to that layout, because it had benefits to the suspension performance. But the way the V10 is laid out makes sense for a DH bike, but not for something that needs a long dropper post and a water bottle. That's why it took so long for the rest of the lineup to move over.

V10 always had the lower link drive the shock all the way from the first gen in 2002. But first lower link driving the shock trail/enduro bike was the Nomad 4 in 2017. Edit: nvm I forgot the Driver 8 existed.

did this podcast ever get posted? never seen it but... this clip posted today was verrry interesting. apparently the full episode was posted a month ago. I think we all knew the split with Zink wasn't fully 'amicable' but it's interesting to hear this little anecdote basically amounting to... A legal threat. More or less?

Not correlated! I know that Alan, who's in charge of Enduro, is very committed. He is doing a lot of work behind the scenes to make changes that will help Enduro, I am excited for what he has in store. Excited enough to come out of retirement for a race or two in the future. Masters class is only a few years away for me.

I have but one bike - bikes that are being built and bikes in the process of being built. Wait...I have two bikes - bikes that are built, bikes in the process of being built, and those that are being sold. Grr, I have three bikes (three shall be the number!) - bikes that are built, bikes in the process of being built, and those being sold. Apologies to Monty Python...

I think we have known these were coming for awhile but this is the first time I’ve seen the Tacky Chan radials on something other than a race bike. (Post from Crossworx Instragram)

I look forward to Jesse having more time to dedicate to trolling all of us nerds. His former teammate Remi seems to be doing well over at quarter hp. Hope he's happy with whatever he ends up doing. He legitimately seems like one of the nicest guys in mtb racing.

150mm bike and DH bike is the way. I used to have a 170mm as my only bike but that was a bit too cumbersome for general trail riding. Entirely possible to pedal a big rig around all day but as my skills progressed I found the trails I needed an enduro bike on became less and less. I got into MTB through racing DH bikes so I have a soft spot for them, but just owning a 150mm bike would be fine by me.

12/20/2025 5:53am Here’s the thing. People get hired into positions of power. They start thinking “I gotta do something!!!” The problem begins when “do something” turns into “change the thing”. The “something” they could do is at all costs protect the core identities that surround the current position. With all the current fuck-ups in business branding you’d think some lessons had been...
