these are my favorite podcasts, thanks for making them. I've always wondered how dak would answer when respectfully asked to compare himself to other top pros. What do they do that Dak does better and the other way around. Also what technical skills (straight line rock garden speed, berms, etc) does he feel are his "weak" point and how did he about deciding that? Basically, how does he go about auditing himself?

I'm just happy people are taking concussion recovery properly instead of pushing through and suffering as I've seen people do in the past.

Ronan Dunne is running an air shock on his, and he certainly ain’t slow. Also air makes more sense to the mass market rather than ship each size with a set spring rate and hope it works

I love the experimentation and scientific mindset of Neko and Frameworks! I'm looking forward to hearing how Neko and Asa get along with the steel front ends. Well done, Cy and Cotic!

You can want a brand to support whatever scene you like, no qualms there. I think it's a bit uncool to declare MG is only working with TLD because she's 'more attractive than most', and saying a successful prior racer doesn't fit the brand because they don't compete anymore. I would guess your comment would have been very different about them hypothetically supporting/collaborating with a Peaty, Gracia or Palmer for example. Rob Warner is head to toe in TLD - he doesn't race anymore so must solely be getting those sponsorship bucks for his looks!

I want to take a moment to thank Darren from Push, who has a small business to run, for taking time to weigh in and educate mouth breathers like me about what's happening inside our suspension stuff that goes up-and-down. I've learned a ton from reading so far. Thanks, Darren!

One thing to point out about recent CSU problems, and I think I've posted about this before on tech rumors, is that they're really a function of bigger wheels for two reasons. First is that longer wheels and forks create more leverage at the CSU, and that's not a small factor. A 29" wheel and fork is a 40mm longer lever than an equivalent travel 26" wheel and fork. Second, that extra 40mm of stack height was a sticking point against the adoption of early 29ers, so (counterintuitively) manufacturers moved to shorter CSU assemblies with less steerer tube/crown overlap to...

Looks like another quality DT product, I'm just glad you dented it. A DH rim test without dents is a sham.

Hey all... I fancy myself a suspension technology nerd but I believe that I (like most) understand just enough of it to be dangerous. I've envisioned a general suspension technology thread on this forum for quite some time. The point of this thread (as I have it envisioned at least) would be to discuss theories, past products/engineering and of course, new stuff. Think of it as a place to discuss things such as: -Discussing the impact/theory of mid valves and base-valves in forks -Poppet valves vs shimmed compression valves -Oil paths in certain shock architectures and what it means for...
