Locking up a rear wheel most likely had nothing to do with being an emtb. It has to do with locking up the rear brake over steep drops. But you jumped on the fact they were simply riding emtb's. We've all locked up the brake on occassion. Sometimes by accident. Even you once or twice I bet. People like you are exactly what the sport needs. You give a shit about the sport and literally help build trails. I apologize for making assumptions...my bad. But emtbs are not the devil. They may be a savior for this sport and open...

Funnily enough I didn’t think to look at my shoe. It’s quite obvious now though. I ride left foot forward and I guess I twist my heel into the crank arm a lot. No signs of wear on the other side. Lots of sand in the dirt where I live too and it creates a perfect sandpaper when damp. I already ordered another set, don’t think it’s a defect, just neglect. Race Race deserve credit for being one of the few original parts on my bike prior to death by sandpaper shoe though

They can if it’s funny

Seems we have our first pinkbike pot stirrer. You can leave that shit at the door sir. The only liberal or conservative conversation in the bike forum here is on the topic of how much Sram butter to use.

Agree, keep the politics and American outrage at one another over on Pinkbike comments. I like Vital because it doesn't have all that bullshit. Hopefully it stays that way.

Dang. Nope. Looks like it's time for your.... Next set though.

"upvote/downvote count affects sort order" Please never. Just adds to the mob / popularity rule that ruins all social media. Why bother to sift through the bottom 90 of 100 comments (On Vital? That might not be the record but it would be close.), there not "popular".

Or we don't fix what's not broken.

I heard Team Robot bought Vital and are putting up a paywall.

Oh, I dont know. Motorsports spec's parts in order to control this. I am not sure that that is feasible. Perhaps the way will be to stop creating boring, straight line tracks and start introducing rocks, roots, and turns into the runs. Self preservation will lead to slightly saner riding. Honestly, the DH tracks over the last couple of years, for the most part, have been really boring.

Make the courses more twisty. Job done.

back to racing and sewing circles, gwin (who was in Montana when we recorded his latest Inside Line podcast) is registered as a Montana resident on the national champs results sheet instead of the familiar temecula listing

I still love Litter Mag!
