8/15/2024 5:50pm I see the yeti vibe, I don’t see the same internal routing ports but the seat tube are looks similar to the current gen bikes. it also could be evil. if they were to move away from delta it would probably be to something else crafty from DW.

8/14/2024 3:14pm I think we may have to admit some possibilities about the group on this thread. Either: 1. We are all no longer well connected enough to score inside info. 2. The industry is in a slump and not developing product at the same speed as the previous few years Considering the lack of new product that came out of crank...

8/8/2024 7:34pm Certainly makes sense. The layout of the radial tire resembles lacrosse stick mesh and high-tech sail cloth, both are applications where preferential flex along one axis is advantageous. What this really reminds me of is X-pac sail cloth which has been readily adapted for making bike frame bags (Revelate, rogue panda….) Cool to see, makes me wonder if we’ll we...

8/3/2024 2:25pm Haha that’s some quality marketing. I say sealant weeping out of sidewalls you say state of the art precision dampening.

5/7/2024 5:21pm With all this 6 bar nonsense, testing cromo chainstays, electronic compression, etc I want someone to (re)try the V2 Magic Link. V1 was a flexy prototype, V3 only used a single shock, so I think V2 was the sweet spot (its a shame I cracked two of them back in the day). Yes, it pedaled better, but thats not its most interesting characteristic. You would set up your suspension rather stiff, with the compression higher than normal, allowing it to be rather firm when pumping. When you hit rough stuff, the rearward forces on the frame increased the leverage ratio...

5/1/2024 3:00pm One the topic of aerodynamic clothing the course ski racing can be informative. FIS has extensive rules governing the permeability of gs suits and the clothing that can be worn underneath as impermeable rubberized layers are more aerodynamic than other woven cloths. FIS tests suits and prohibits the wearing of swim suits and similar materials underneath suits. one interesting thing...

5/1/2024 2:54pm Yeti has been running similar vest/compression shirts for some time now and I’ve always wanted to get my hands on one of the vests. I find a similar combo works well in super hot/humid conditions. Unfortunately every vest I’ve found has a more lax bro vibe.

4/17/2024 6:29am I would like tuned disc rotors. If my brakes are going to make noise I’d love it to be something fun. I’m thinking “sheeeeesh” or fart noises

3/22/2024 6:15pm Probably something that looks a lot like a Devinci Wilson, although the profile isn’t too far off their current offering. Split pivot does offer really nice characteristics under braking

3/21/2024 2:22pm Seems that top tier guys run non-kash for the off season. Same deal when the 38 dropped

2/28/2024 8:12am Would make a certain amount of sense. All (or most) of the Rocky Mountain models currently on their website have shimano in their names. This implies the future availability of sram models as well.

2/13/2024 8:40am I saw a very finished looking carbon bike with a paint job I didn’t recognize in one of Remi’s stories. Also think it will have headset cups like the stumpy evo.

2/12/2024 4:13pm From the other site. In the video they keep referring to “the good brakes” on Kaz’s bike

2/1/2024 7:01pm Yeah I have a VHS player and a bunch of VHS tapes so it’s gonna take something compelling to get me to switch to Betamax.
