I have to admit, the new Sidekick hub has me really interested. Looks like they made a lot of tangible improvements. I wish they had included a sound clip of the hub coasting. Onyx hubs have spoiled me over the years.

I spent a good chunk of last night trying to evaluate DJI's move through the lens of business and corporate strategy. While it might sound far-fetched, I genuinely believe DJI could be making a move that fundamentally changes the landscape of the e-mtb industry. A few thoughts: Amflow: I have it on good authority that Fox's number one customer is Amflow. If true, that should signal to the industry that Amflow is not a demo product. It's a company going after the likes of Specialized, Trek, Giant and other major incumbents. To add, there is nothing holding them back from...

Jeff, your breakdown seems to be getting noticed.. Seen it pop up on my FB feed a couple times..

There are three guarantees in life: death, taxes, and the internet being absolutely certain that every new e-bike motor release is going to end in disaster. I like to think my view of the world is pretty empirical and observational. So with that in mind, can anyone point me to actual examples of trail closures caused by e-MTBs? We’ve obviously seen issues with SurRons, but my brief Google search and AI-assisted digging turned up basically nothing beyond trails being opened to e-bikes. I cannot find evidence of trail networks being closed to mountain bikes because e-MTB use has meaningfully increased...

I‘ve been told from a source I think is credible that there will be no Megatower V3 this season.

Isn't the Megatower supposedly gone?

I’ll still pump just as much, this will just mean I’ll get to fill a lot more tires

If you look at MTBs we have worked diligently to remove the Contraption-vibes from the bikes. There isn’t a clear roadmap for the future of these bikes but I would say the path will avoid Contraption-vibes

🤔 edit: apparently v3 clash

Im always curious to know how popular ibis bikes are in Australia where the bird is known as a "bin chicken".... it would be like bringing a bike to the US and calling it Turkey....

A few days late but worth it.

yep, I rewatched it and realized you can see a Bosch wheel magnet twice. So I guess the question now is, did they use the CX or SX motor? My guess is CX since most people want full power.

sounds like 5 underutilized support resources to me

Maybe because I'm not in North America, but don't you guys have climbing trails separate for descending trails? It's been the standard in Australia for a long time now, any proper sanctioned zone has uphill downhill trails separate, only traversing trails are multi direction and they generally have great site lines, or tight turns to limit speed for safety.

Alright everybody, not trying to be some self righteous guy but I figured this advice could help. Here’s my lessons, after getting it pretty much dialed after thinking I completely fucked the dog. -make sure you follow the video step for step (as other smart people mentioned above) I basically skimmed it and thought it would be fine, it was not. Follow the video exactly. -definitely check the chain length on the app. I’m running 2 links short, and it was just dumb luck, u coulda cut it shorter on accident I just got lucky. I’m too used to winging...

new thigh...

He's Canadian, that's a hockey puck.
