All

I could do without all the corny puns that littered the PB comment section however....

Does Vital have the ability to create a decent comment section? I could care less what (insert bike brand) has to say about their new (insert newly released product). But I absolutely want to hear what a bunch of degenerates have to say about it.

Better scale them servers up boys! Seriously though, hope it doesn't turn to shit here. The comments are usually from people who know how to ride and are generally knowledgable about bikes. Pinkbike on the other hand...

To all the new folks, comment when there is something to forward the thread to something we all can appreciate. This is the team rumors thread. Team=Racing teams, not Pb or vital team. To annonce you have switched teams is not for this thread. Sspomer has one for this, it is called introduce your self, or something.

Any new rumors or just new PB people?

Hopefully your summer isn’t spent policing the forums and comments section 👍

Great, the podcast description made me realize my internet smartassery has reached a level of 'infamous'...

HOT DAMN LOOK AT THAT POST COUNT! legendary marzo number. I have to stop posting now, sorry. oh no, wait....what just happened

Spomer gets a car???? What about us gnomes at the coal face???? I have to work in two different time zones halfway across the globe and you want to give GORDO the wheels??? Just kidding. He likes the Toyota Yaris BTW.

Bets on the word count of the post Jeff Brines is no doubt crafting right now? Imma go with 23,790.

They were reformed a few years ago to become the corporate conglomerate of outdoor publications. They’ve been buying anything up with value. They bought pink bike for Trailforks as much or more so than the editorial side. Seems a major focus is in apps whether they be health, navigation, or sport training related. I’m glad for hradek. I’m sure the payout was pretty damn spectacular. He undoubtedly started something really cool and deserves a bonus now he’s ready. But pinkbike has been trying too hard for years and this is just going to make things worse. Mtb doesn’t need reality...

thoughts on banning all new vital signups for 1 year? (kidding, but welcome to vital)

LOL. official post. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Beta MTB (@betamtb)

Can somebody with some decent photoshop skills and some time on their hands please build a fake rumour and we will see if Pinkbike bites? I'd expect some sort of snarky comment like "it's pretty easy to type SRAMLLC into a search line" when they're caught...but it's like clockwork that something shows up here and then has a full story a day or two later.

Just to chime in on the tubeless insert bit, I have a history of wreaking tires and rims at regular/high pressures. On my new rig I had a few rim hits the other day running 25 rear and I picked up a tannus the next day just to try it. By the end of the next day riding i was down to 18psi, smashing sections far more recklessly than i was even the day before and felt like I had a ton more traction and support. I'll be grabbing a front as well. .

Sorcery!!!!!! Witch!!!!!!
