11/24/2025 9:08pm Markus coming across as that POS who is bashing his wife and says something like "look at what you made me do, you made me do this" kind of vibes everyone else's fault but his.

11/24/2025 12:36pm When I go to queenstown I'll take a bike box as I know it fits my 1340mm wheelbase XL bike. It's only a 2 hour flight but sometimes I need to get another box to leave as it gets so fucked up in that short time. One time, for $70 AUD more (so about 30 US cents lol) I got...

11/20/2025 1:12pm In honor of the 1000th page, we should vote on the best meme of 2025: 👍🏻 for “Crab” 👎🏻 for “6-7” edit: Carcinization is the antithesis of innovation. Maybe we should keep crab talk on the crab talk forum and keep this thread focused on MTB tech rumors and/or innovation.

Hope he lands on his feet, he is a fantastic ambassador for the sport to the kids of Australia and in all my dealings with him over the years one of the nicest blokes you will ever meet. What you see in the videos is him in reality, a true legend.

11/13/2025 3:59pm I think DW has a stipulation on CS length IMO. There is the possibility the additional leverage could do weird things to the force chart. I don't have linkage anymore to model it. I do remember when we played around with overstroking DW bikes you always got a undesirable effect. But I almost always overstroke a horst bike and it's...

11/10/2025 1:24pm Specialized do transferable warranty to the second owner I'm pretty certain

11/10/2025 1:00pm Look at something with transferable warranty then. I'd steer towards something with a Bosch motor, this is coming from someone who has only owned shimano motors too. In saying that, I would have done nearly 20,000km's on these shimano bikes and only had 1 "failure" which wasn't really a failure, rather the motor got a touch noisy.

11/4/2025 12:32pm Can confirm this is real. You think the guy at Avalanche suspension is "interesting", Howard Messner was on another level of insane. Ohlins actually cut ties with him for abusing customers pretty much. Sadly he died in 2022 but that man turned shitbox harley davidsons into bikes that were less shit that's for sure. A true suspension genius. I was...

10/31/2025 3:55pm Good write up for sure. Kinda reminds me of my golf game. I keep score by "did I have fun?" Birdies, pars, bogeys, lost balls. I don't really care. I love riding bikes. That's what makes me happy. At least me and my bros are out there. That's what matters. And that's all I need.

10/31/2025 3:50pm the old spinning the cranks backwards trick has got me out of trouble too many times now. I think the main issue is the small battery/capacitor in the ew-sw300 on/off button failing. It won't boot the system if that battery is flat or failing. My button works maybe 50% of the time, or I just put a 5mm allen in...

10/31/2025 3:41pm That, is something Entirely different to a brake torque arm. The Ribi Quadrilateral. Designed by Valentino Ribi in the 70s. So much more than a 'traditional' Leading Link front end! Tested - in part, - by Roger Decoster - He even did a few GPs on VRs original steel , twin shocked prototypes. RD, persuaded Honda to buy the design / hire VR. And, they went hog wild on it - getting to the Single Shocked version in around 1982 : They never went much past that. Just another design bought by a massive company, and , ultimately shelved. Though...
