7/11/2025 1:31am Yes!!!!! Modularity!!!! I actually love this idea, and I love the idea that they have the Slash as a high pivot and Fuel as a low pivot, but both can be set up with similar travel numbers.

7/10/2025 11:19am Wouldn't this need an idler and have really weird pedalling characteristics?

A fan of the lack of a kinked seat tube or a nonsense shock tunnel to enable mega dropper lengths.

I would assume so... setting up the Enduro to have as much stack as the Madonna made the bike feel awkward.

7/7/2025 9:26am Did you find yourself having your back more upright on the Madonna than on the Enduro?

7/7/2025 8:06am I just don't want to be spread out over a bike. The more leaned over I am, the more pressure it puts on my hands and the less control I have over the bike's movement. I shouldn't be experiencing something completely different just because of my height. I should be getting the same experience on my size L bike as...

7/7/2025 4:05am Alloy frame, coil sprung, DH tyres and he's upset that it's 16kg? Help! Waiter! My steak is too juicy and my lobster is too buttery!

Simple instructions for the commenters, STFU when Niko (or whichever pro is in the booth) is talking.

7/6/2025 11:41am Are you telling me that Jackson Goldstone isn't his real name, and that he's actually called "John Mountainbike"????

7/6/2025 11:05am Next model I work on I'm doing the rear end first and working back to front. It seems like a sensible idea. Watch this space. In a few years you'll see this bad boy on bike of the day!

7/6/2025 7:59am The bar height from the axle is, yes, but he also has his BB set lower than nearly everyone else. The stack:body height ratio for Dak is more akin to the Women (and Jacko) than the other riders of a similar height to him. Regardless of short head tubes and stuff he still has a very unique setup that puts...

7/5/2025 2:25pm I've got a tacky chan on the rear as I don't particularly feel the need for a 3 block middle tread on a rear tyre, I tried a new location that was a bit more hard-pack and not as dusty as my local, and the Tacky was a whole lot more slip happy than the Mary, even running it at...

7/5/2025 8:58am Is it just me or are the radial tyres way better than reviews are letting on? I went from a Hutchinson Griffus to a Magic Mary Radial and I thought I’d upgraded my forks at first, I’m a convert and my friend who races enduro is a convert too. I don’t think any other tyre on the market comes close...

7/5/2025 7:44am Linkage is like a game of whack-a-mole at times and the inability to lock in the dimensions of different components is frustrating. If you're designing a bike has a flip chip, you will have to have a working CAD model first and plug in the numbers from that CAD model into Linkage to see how it changes.

I do a local Enduro with a night stage every year, it's fun and gets rowdy - though the lighting is pretty minimal and more for spectators so riders use lights. I think it was last year they ran the same stage during the daytime and the top guys were only a couple seconds slower at night so I wouldn't expect the pros to be going slow. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DAwyGiER9YF/?igsh=ZHljZTR2N2J4ajc1

7/4/2025 11:36am I'm jealous you have a direct line to Neko Mulally. I'd love to ask him stuff about that new bonded FW bike of his.
