Batts Added a reply to The HUGE downside of EMTB's
7/2/2021 10:18am I just got an e-bike. Cannot imagine ever riding with someone not on an e-bike. I ride alone a lot but I still ride my regular bike 5-1 over the E, but if I plan to ride with someone then the regular bike is all I would consider. I honestly do not really notice the weight that much, like said...

Brutal track... Danny, Troy, Remi, Loris, Reece making it look easy. Loic looking fast but seemed to be working more? Finn getting it down and Dakota putting in a huge effort it seems to make it work. I bet it pays off for all these guys.

Noah, Not to be a douche, but its not "laughable". Its probably spot on. There are a few factors at play here. Lets talk about two... 1) Most mountain bikers lean left. No, I don't have any statistics to back this up right here, but I don't think this is a far fetched assumption. If Gwin posts something that leans more right, and his followers don't engage with it guess what? The algorithm won't show it to as many people. Put another way, you run MRPs insgram. Post something political, post something right leaning, see what happens. It won't go...

Batts Added a reply to Will Lack of MTB Products Make You Ride More Cautiously?
5/5/2021 2:14pm I think about replacement parts, like a brake lever damaged in a crash and my OCD needs it to match. Chains are an issue, I just put a new one on so I should be good for a little while until I can get my hands on another. I have 2 bikes that use the same size wheels, so I...

Do you actually like the shape of that frame or just the color? I personally find that design awkward and unbalanced. It probably rides amazing but ot does not look good.

12/8/2020 9:27am I have about 20mm of spacers under my stem and the One Up bars in the 35mm rise. I have shoulder issues and find a higher bar height is less stress on them. I will get on friends bikes that have minimal rise and I feel like I am going over the handlebars. I have tried moving a 5mm spacer...

11/13/2020 3:37pm I am all for new riders and giving them the best experience and to progress, but losing great natural tech trails to flow trails sucks. Killington took a few out. I always think about the late 90's when someone would clear (not build) a new trail. We were so excited to go ride it on our hard tail with 80mm...

Worst: Maxxis Aggressor - sucks for climbing, doesn't stop well, should have gone with a Minion SS, 'cause at least it can corner SRAM Guide - not as good as Levels or cantis Bontrager Blaze helmet with Wavecel - expensive, hot and heavy, just what I want in a halfshell helmet Best: Carbon rims on everything - no more flat spots Vorsprung Luftkappe - amazing Dropper posts that aren't Reverbs - most rides I use my dropper more often than I shift Jury's Out: Intoxicated while riding - set some PRs while hammered, but it seems like a bad idea...

10/28/2020 3:39pm Some stuff I have had good luck with: One Up bars, I have nerve damage in both arms and these made a huge difference. Ergon grips help also but I find the grip is less important with these bars. I like everything One Up makes, as said by others, have not tried the stem. Stan's Dart, only had to use...
