lebron and canyon prove 32" wheels are best for tall people 🤣 (non MTB...it's crazy how proportionally correct it looks)

I can see why you'd think that, but you're thinking of the south. People don't play banjos in Connecticut small towns. This is what they're doing on the weekends in Hebron:

So I've got a Bosch CX. Gen 4. And yeah, in order to do the software upgrade so you can adjust some things on your ride you signed your life away. Just like anything Apple, I suppose. So I'm trying to figure out how Marketing can claim what was written. The whole "now riders are riding more" kind of thing (paraphrasing here). So to me, one would have to have data. Obviously. The only data they would have is on their own equipment. So if on day one of using Bosch schtuff, let's say you do a 5mi ride. Yay...

If we could get every American to ride a half a mile every year, that would be an accomplishment in itself..

The high and low settings are adjusted with flip chips at the link/seat stay junction. There are also flip chips on the chain stay that allow for a long/short chain stay adjustment as well. We spec the bikes how we would want to ride them, given the price targets. They come with bigger suspension (Zeb vs lyrik on the high end), 800wh battery vs 600wh battery, in some cases 220mm rotors for more stoping power, heavy duty DH casing tires on the rear and DD on the front, heavy duty e-bike wheels that will hold up. We could build these...

We are big on the battery choice thing too. We don't know how or where everyone rides. If we offer the option, you pick what you want. You know you're riding better than we do. Why Aluminum: Call it part timing and part strategic. A big facto was our alloy e-bike was due for an update because of the dated Shimano motor it was using. We also saw a hole in the market as there were rumors of all the Avinox bikes going carbon and very high priced (keep in mind all of this was in play long before the...

I can add a bit more being on the design team for this bike. We can do a better job at calling out the "why" in the short press release. There will be upcoming videos talking about it, but here it is from the design side of things. As bike designers we are constrained by the shape of the motor and battery. We can't change these designs. Riders are wanting bigger batteries (800wh in this bikes case). We also have great demand to fit more shocks, from inline, to the largest enduro and coil shocks. We have to have fork...

What is the relevance of having a ”vertical shock”? Why does it matter? At some point I have heard a newbie say that he is looking for a bike and he had found a Santa Cruz, but he didn't like it because it has no ”vertical shock”. I laughed and explained to him that it doesn't matter so much in the grand scheme of things for a shock to be ”vertical”. Now I see this on my favorite MTB site. Is it a Pinkbike-ish ”wAtEr bOtTLe sPaCe iS sOmEtHiNG i LiVe aNd diE fOr”? Thanks, Mx

Frame only pricing is a psyop to make building your own bike less appealing/practical so you suck it up and buy the full build

Trek 980 Modular Battery System, 330wh 1p battery + 650wh 2p battery What does this mean? Both can be fitted inside the downtube? Also, where is the ecvt from avinox and the semi solid state batteries? We all know that all these are totally ready productionwise but they have to keep making money so they serve us the already finalized tech in future time segments. It really gets boring though, when the tech is already shown. At least keep it behind the curtains.
