BHowell Added a new video Bringhurst Bangin Bars with Barcia (and more) - SRAM Presents Shred All Ways
6/2/2022 12:53pm
Gravel can mean a lot of things to a lot of people. For some, it's grinding their way to the podium. For others, it's an adventure and a chance to XPLR beyond the road's end. So what happens when you take Andrew Jackson, Payson McElveen, Braydon Bringhurst, and Justin Barcia and put them on the most capable gravel set-ups available? They Shred All Ways. The XPLR collection from SRAM, RockShox, and Zipp celebrate a new era of drop-bar riding uninhibited by the road ahead (or lack thereof). We brought together four riders who have spent their careers carving their own...

BHowell Added a comment about feature 2023 RockShox Suspension
5/27/2022 8:11am
I believe the lack of backward compatibility with the Pike and Lyrik have to do with real estate and the incorporation of the new lowers. There may be even more to it than that. The words "from the ground up" new were used a lot in our discussions. That said, like everyone else said, you sill have a great fork!

Thanks, glad you dug it! That is the WTB Speed Gel seat. It came on the Megatower and is a bit larger than my usual WTB Silverado. We'll see how I get on with it this summer.

Glad you found the review helpful, there's a ton of new stuff! The climb switch still felt rather firm. I would really only see myself using it on long, sustained climbs where the terrain is firm (loose rocks are really hard to mitigate when activated). I would also add that because I have these on a Santa Cruz, physically reaching the climb switch while riding is not the most convenient.
