Quicker direction changes and sharper brake bite with the Wet Scream rear with more stability and comfort with the higher volume Shorty out front.

It's possible, for sure, but the backlash from fans could also have left MSA frustrated and they pulled out. It sucks though, despite the issues, the track is unreal to watch and has been a favourite since the early 2000s for me. Seeing and shooting ... more »

$8500 and 5 star value? I know, I know, top of the line components. Just shows how subjective everything really is. 5 star value, to me, has to be reserved for the bikes that offer race worthy performance around $3K (or less). Suggesting otherwise just shows how deep we...more

That photo of Isabeau, IMO, is why Enduro is more gnarly than DH now.
DH always has a special place in my heart and I'll wake up and watch it every race, but Enduro's technical aspects crush it.

Ultra soft Mary in Super Trail casing, please! Lots of us like to pedal a lot and live in places where it rains.
Same for you, Maxxis. There's a lack of gooey front tire options that aren't pushing 1200g.

I just wish companies would offer decent spec on their ALU rigs. I don't want to buy an aluminum complete only to have to instantly replace breaks, shock and possibly fork as well. Any brand putting LevelT or low end guide brakes on there "enduro" bikes can fuck right off....more

Cody’s a bloody champ, a real genuine fella as I’m sure any of the other so called ‘second rate’ enduro riders are. You, on the other hand, come across as a total douche. No-one’s asking you to care about anyone who isn’t whatever you deem to be first ... more »

Good to see some stuff confirmed on the list. Nina Hoffmann running her own program. I wonder if she wanted it that way?

Sucks to be a team that hasn't posted an announcement yet. The UCI list snuffs heaps of the excitement they could have had.

A pressure regulator costs about... 10 dollars? Maybe 20 if you're splurging, so max 30 for all the fittings and the like. Adjust it using a gauge to the desired pressure and voila, you're done.
Yeah, not as comfortable since it doesn't have presets and a digital display, but cmon... 750...more

Also worth mentioning is the lever doesn’t need to be through it’s entire reach to activate the post. A small and comfortable amount is enough to get her riled up!

Just installed my OneUp 210mm a few weeks ago, & largely agree w/ Vital: it's pretty darn close to perfect. A couple caveats: disagreement on lever ergonomics: I've tried most of the long-armed lever designs (e.g. RaceFace, PNW...) that mimic the long throw of a SRAM...more
