A question for the cockpit topic maybe?

I dont know why but YT kind of strikes me as the type of company to do this just for publicity. Id like to be wrong though.

I’m not sure why YT bothers with the frame cover. The only thing that makes sense to me is that they are running a new fox thing. They have nothing to hide with their suspension? You can see everything through the cover when the suspension moves.

trunnion mount for SC? They’ve mentioned some new bikes on their recent podcasts.

YT? Only reason I'd say that is the chodey water bottle. Don't some of their frames require specific water bottles?

What bike is this in Cam Zink’s post?

Just in case the Dreadnought post disappears again, taking all quotes with it, I love the colourway "Fatty T". Great beer! Again, I hope they have a "Sh***y Kitty" colour as well.

Those sound an awful lot like facts. Please stick to rumors around here. Though I suppose the innovation loophole might allow it...

Mavens use mineral oil and 18/19.5mm pistons

Their website says new optic and sight in feb. So should see em pretty soon. Looks like both of them will be a Horst bro pivot. I wonder how much lighter they will be than the forbidden bikes, a lot less material going on with the back end. The norcos now aren’t featherweights but the forbidden bikes look downright obese.

Still 130mm.

I believe Spomer has said in the past that they don’t remove posts and that the person who posted it is the only one who can remove it.

There's no NDAs here and its a rumor forum. Companies like Apple, NVIDIA, and Tesla have leaks for products that have millions invested into them and they stay posted online.....but a bicycle gets pulled down. Strange times...

Dude, when the man said ”influencers”, he actually meant the people who PUT IN THE WORK and changed our bikes for the good, not some guys from YouTube, who turn some knobs and are all in for the news. Before there were influencers of today, followed on social media, the people who were influencing stuff were the ones who worked in certain domains, mostly behind the scenes, and used their work to change their respective industries for the better. There is a misunderstanding. Pilgrim and Boostmaster are probably nice people, but they are definitely not bike or suspension engineers, just...

For Geo I'd say Chris Porter of Mojo/geometron. The first Geometron prototype still would'nt look too out of place nearly 10 year later.

Ah Trunnion: forever the scapegoat for poor frame alignment and QC

Looking again at this photo - that’s 1 biiig mullet bike. Other think that is curious - blurring the photo where the rear triangle is most likely exactly for this: not to see the rear triangle. But the blurring goes exactly to the derailleur, even part of it is affected, almost as if to completely cover how the chain goes over the chainstay - parallel to it directly to the chainring, or upwards like on a high-pivot towards an idler… Don’t think Banshee’s into the high-pivot craze, but then again they do like to listen to the customers, and...

Sorry, didn't mean to take away anyones human-ness, I swear I saw a video a few years back in the Giant factory where robots pick, weld and even box a frame.

I can believe that they are mineral oil and use a new pad, but where have you heard that they are 6 piston?
