Separate bar and stem combos – they should all be one piece. But seriously, ISCG-05. All three tabs on every bike and frame designers following a uniform standard for clocking and distance from centerline. A single direct-mount chainring standard and a single BCD standard for spiders (104).

SuperBoost can GTFO! If DH bikes can be made to work just fine with 148, why does Superboost exist on trail bikes? I often swap wheels between bikes, I have one set of "enduro" wheels that I've used on at least 4 bikes. Currently, all my bikes, other than my fat bike and dirt jumper have 148 spacing and it's come in handy. Last summer, I had a rock go through a rear wheel on my trail bike 3 days before leaving for a 10-day riding trip in Iceland, I broke 3 spokes and knew I wouldn't get the wheel...

Glad to hear someone else feels the same way about buying a new bike and Superboost. I've wondered how many lost sales certain brands have because they are Superboost. Is anyone out there buying a certain bike because it's Superboost?

Echo some of the ones people have already listed. Superboost, cable tourism, bb standards and rotor sizing. I'd say torque caps are another one that I want to see either adopted across the board or eliminated. I have an equal spread of rockshox and fox in my fleet of bikes... I recognize that torque caps are superior, I believe that I can even tell a difference in stiffness of torque caps vs non on 35mm stanchions and lighter forks. It's annoying to have a different standard for hub end caps... maybe I'm just jaded because dt's torque cap end caps...

As long as we're getting rid of 203 / 223 rotors, let's do away with centerlock too. A solution in search of a problem, that mostly just ends up creating more problems.

Superboost for sure, good wheels are expensive and there are many bikes I won't even consider because my nice wheels won't transfer easily.

This is such a good question, and I would add to it: Does anyone actually think this looks better? Because the integrated stem LOOKS SO WEIRD to my eyes. It looks like the monster from The Goonies. [Edit: A friend pointed out to me that "The Goonies didn’t have a monster. It had Sloth, who was a normal person who was severely beaten when he was a child. It’s really sad actually." Agreed. You could say the real monster in the Goonies is inside of the people, and everyone has the choice to be brave or become a monster. I...

Shit is TOUGH out there right now. This is easily the worst quarter/season for bike brands ever. If you want to support your favorite independent bike brand, now is the time. Or perhaps a favorite rider etc.

2.5 years seems like an odd duration for a sponsorship deal... Regardless, that post is a pretty good example of how you depart from a sponsor, even if it's unexpected (at least that's how I read it).
