4/22/2026 9:25am Doesn't a VPP shock tunnel eliminate both of the other two? Besides, is dropper insertion such a big deal on an XC bike?

4/19/2026 6:13pm I will echo this, STFU combined with the Jab derailleur is the best combo I have found for reducing chain slap.

4/19/2026 9:26am I should have written „for a whole ride“. Your post sounds a bit harsh imho. ;-) And no doubt, there are people who ride their emtbs like regular bikes. And folks who can ride (again) because of emtbs. Cool! And I don’t even judge, as long as people enjoy emtbing, I am happy. Regular bikers can also be fun OR problematic, no worries. But to me it feels more and more like a different sport. It’s not biking it’s biking with a motor… If I am on an emtb, I sure ride differently. And most bikers who were bikers before...

4/19/2026 9:24am I think that's sort of the point, the only metric anyone cares about is the motor. The essence of riding an eBike is what the motor gives you. The rest of the "bike" part takes a back seat. And no one seems to care, even though the slippery slope foreboding was waved away as an irrational fear

4/18/2026 5:32pm Bell Full-Air Mips and 3QTR Air Mips Bell has soft-launched two new helmets—Full-Air Mips and 3QTR Air Mips. Both helmets are available now online, and target enduro, bike park, and e-bike riders. The Full-Air replaces Bell's longstanding and popular Super Air convertible helmet. The new model does not have a removable chin bar, a decision made due to the increased safety provided by the fixed chin bar and updates that have made the new helmet more breathable than the Super Air. The 3QTR Full Air has all the same features, but comes without a chin bar. It offers more coverage...

4/17/2026 8:29am STFU works well. Madrone Jab has an excellent clutch that you can fine tune to your liking.

4/17/2026 8:15am I too put a deposit on the In(tro)vert as I am thinking about turning my idle Megatower frame into a bike park bruiser, and once you go USD, you can't go back. The comparison to Intend will be interesting. I can't imagine CC can have the same attention to detail and QA like them but I am hopeful to be...

4/16/2026 4:12pm I put in a deposit on the Cane Creek. They are local to me and it'd be interesting to compare them to the Intend, I'll report in when it shows up.

4/16/2026 9:58am If only someone made a linkage that allowed a longer shock to to be run on the Levo and it yielded 170 mm of travel. That would be wild.

4/16/2026 7:52am Any 2.3mm rotor will be a much better performer with the Hopes, I have no recent experience with Shimanos. 2.05mm Daechle HD from Trickstuff work for me very well, too, so that may be good middle road for you.
