Latest post on neko's instagram shows one picture of the dh bike on the stand and it looks like the main pivot is way higher up the seattube to get high-er virtual pivot .

It might be just the translation but any time an emtb motor is called an engine it really...

Oh come on... These bad AI images have been floating around ever since before the Druid E was launched.

Nobby nic ultrasoft coming?

Unfortunately that is not correct. RC, FC, and WB are all horizontal measurements. CSL is the point to point measurement from center of BB to rear axle, and there's no name (or need) for the equivalent version at the front.

Great question. You'd think so, but no. Because the BB sits below the axles, and because FC and RC are measured from the center of the hub axle to the center of the BB, the FC and RC don't form a straight line. They form a slight "V" as they both dip down to the BB. Then you consult Pythagorus to get the exact difference in length. [Editor's note: This is wrong. See @kperras post below for full and correct explanation]

Oh man oh man I want to see the weight on that reya. 450mm CS on a truly light bike would be insanely advantageous for tech climbing and huge backcountry missions. That said, quite bummed they chose to make the BB so low. Really should not be a thing on a bike in this class meant to shine on climbs. Gonna be offsetting some of the benefit of the long chain stays on tech climbs. Sad.

My 2020 Norco Optic looking great still with all these new short travel bikes...

aaaaaand mountain biking shines brightly again. nskerb and veefour: you’ve just cut my screen time short for the day, so thanks in a way…does anyone here watch the YouTuber MTB Alan? He bailed on our hobby recently, hard to argue against any of his points. What assholes we are.

Guy with "middle eastern" background here, lets go back to mtb rumors...

I have heard from a LBS that Norco should have a new affordable simple Horst link DH option like around 6k CAD for a complete DH bike with Rockshox Select suspension for this spring-summer.

Headlines...and Olympic gold medals, and World Championships.

Spoken like a boomer core lord. That’s what the viral forums seem to have become though. Dario is actually a breath of fresh air in mountain bike media, same as Jason. His perspective is a welcome change from the usual safe, generic industry takes the rest of the media recycles time and time again.

Not knowing the price of something on release day and he doesn’t just make it up? Crazy. He’s basically a dirtbag rider that crushes out the vert and miles. He’s more one of us than most of us are…

Get ready to have your mind blown: German speakers “drive” skis (and bikes).

I am betting its the bilstein shock we saw a while ago (Pic borrowed from P

Heard that RMU, a ski company with shops in Truckee, whis, and breck, are launching an aluminum, DW designed all mountain bike (170 fork) that apparently pedals quite well. There’s likely to be a 140 version to follow, and potentially ebikes to follow that. Made in Taiwan. Should drop in March, curious if they’ll be at sea otter with it. Could it be this thing?
