5/6/2025 11:32am I noticed some silver Crankbros wheels popping up, first in Brian Cahal's video on the new Ari Ebike, now on Commencal's Instagram. Hopefully these are releasing soon. Silver rims absolutely need to come back!

4/17/2025 7:56pm Revel shutting down really sucks, I think they had great products, maybe priced a bit high. CBF suspension is rad. Cost of living in Carbondale is quite high and must have been a large factor. I will add into the depressing news: I have heard that the Juliana brand will cease to exist at some point in the near future.

3/27/2023 7:30pm +1 for rattley Zeb fender. tried to add some foam to quiet it down but didn't help. Adding additional bolts might help, but would need a new casting.

3/21/2023 8:33pm I like that hydraulic bottom out is becoming more popular on "mainstream" suspension. The industry seems to be slowly stealing ideas from trophy trucks and other offroad motorsports. Will we see position sensitive damping and mid speed damping control in the next few years?

plenty of other gravel bike checks in here in case you haven't noticed... and this performs about the same as a 90s rigid MTB

4/16/2022 11:05pm New Megatower pics uploaded to Pinkbike, probably gearing up for a Tuesday launch. In frame storage, longer/slacker geo, revised cable routing, UDH, etc etc

1/12/2022 10:16pm It's another full carbon rear end for one of their bikes. Something called the Dunedin. Might be different somehow but I'm not sure, not an expert on GG's. If you know where to look on PB the photos are there.

9/30/2021 11:00pm Alloy stumpy Evo is happening, looks like a carryover of the carbon models geometry and features. So yes, it has a Swat box. Comp and Elite builds as well as a frame only. 
Ambushell Added a reply to Go with SRAM or stay with Shimano?
9/19/2021 10:57pm My experience as a mechanic, and owner of both Sram and Shimano pushes me towards Shimano. The drivetrain performs better (HG+) and there isnt the massive difference in shift quality between say, NX and X01. A Deore drivetrain shifts basically just as well as XTR. The only issue I've encountered over more than a year and a half of usage...

6/22/2021 9:50pm I had the luck of running into a Rockshox guy today at Trestle who had some covered up prototype suspension on his bike. Sounds like the Zeb is getting a new damper and air spring early next year. Maybe we will see the new Super Deluxe then as well.

very cool build, the silver ailerons and RX4 brakes were something I was looking at for a Diverge. Can we get some drive side pics and weight?

Having a lot of free time during the lockdown had me itching to design another bike. Here is the result. Almost the same geometry as the first one. 475mm reach 110mm head tube length 436mm chainstay length 80 degrees seat angle 63.5 head angle 200mm/210mm travel changeable leverage curve by using different front shock mounts Also made a mount for my older 216x63 shocks that gives me 178mm rear travel. Coupled with some old 160mm forks will give me about 64.5 head angle. 
What do you guys think? Anything I missed? Appreciate...

Obviously our new beer collab with Kulshan Brewery "Party in the Woods" Hoppy Lager! Hot tip, the new can labels are high quality printed stickers that can be removed for all sorts of art projects....such as completely covering your frame. You will have to drink at least 69 beers for this, but I think you're up for the challenge!
