Me with my 15-year old Park Tool 3-ways over here, listening to the level of depth and nuance in this thread: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3elF6SCRlA

Oh no, what we all feared... I just hope he can continue to be as mentally strong as he's always been. Wish him nothing but the best in this recovery.

Ah, the Park AWS-8 Ball end triple AKA " The Stripple" Nothing quite like trying to tighten up a caliper bolt and getting a half turn at a time as the unused Y ends wack into the wheel spokes. Wera SS hex keys with the bolt retainers on the ball ends for me thx.

10/23/2025 2:09pm I take a bit of offense to this. While I totally understand why a person may prefer to not use three-ways, as someone who will continue to use them and is a competent mechanic, I know when my suspension needs damping and when it’s needs to be made more moist (dampening). 😉

I just want to say I completely disagree with every single point. A simple down vote wasn't enough. Just because you can't fathom what drives others, doesn't give you the right to demean them.

10/23/2025 7:52am My biologically based and perfectly calibrated internal torque wrench only works with my honed 3-way grip. Using a T-handle, could be 2N.m, could be 20N.m, who knows?!

Scribing arcs 4” away from every bolt, the battle scars of a hero home mechanic. The first Park tool we get, the first one we reach for, the first we should forget. But we will never stop wielding this glaive of the garage. Magical.

10/23/2025 7:22am Park makes one that has 4mm, 5mm, and a T-25. Pedros has made a 3-way with all Torx heads.

Need all black gear with black logos & a simple reflective marker on the riders side facing back toward traffic. For pedaling back from a trail up the side of a 2 lane at dusk. Just copy the Nukeproof pant or Rapha (especially Rapha's phone pocket location) & you'll be golden.

10/22/2025 6:15am That would be really cool, I’d love it. I wonder how much money you would actually have to raise to cover a top rider for year including salary, travel/accommodation, equipment, support/mechanic, etc?

10/21/2025 1:17pm Well there are laces, so we know it’s not a freeride team with Finley K.

Ah sorry, I was getting carried away talking about product instead of teams...however none of you are guessing the pro riders foot in my picture? Man I thought that was what team rumours was all about! I thought someone would have blown it up and analysed the lacing pattern to identify who is going to be spearheading the Nukeproof team in 2026!

Buckets Up Added a reply to Pick your 3 favorite MTB brands?
10/21/2025 1:16pm Those might be incongruent choices. The brands I would pick to run/stock a shop and the brands that I like or connect with most aren’t the same. Especially depending on location or target market. Transition would be a company I like and would consider bringing into a shop. Devinci and Knolly are companies I like, but would NOT bring into...

10/21/2025 1:08pm Based on the broadcast explanation of the judging, Rampage is similar (and presumably influenced) by judging from these freeride snow comps. However, I don’t think it’s as refined. Back in the day on the Freeskiing World Tour, your line choice was scored first (1-10 scale). Then the other categories were (fluidity, amplitude, control, technique if I remember correctly) were scored...

I have a real hard time believing AI is going to result in some sort of utopia for the masses. There's enough money right now that we could all get some level of UBI and be working less and spending more time on our passion projects. But when have the ultra wealthy EVER wanted to part with even a little bit more of their money? If we just give them a few more tax breaks to pay for their data centers and help subsidize the cost of the electricity and water to run them so they can become trillionaires, THEN...

10/21/2025 10:26am I think it would just leave time for people to invest in activities or ‘work’ on things that genuinely interest them and not just labor to survive. People would be free to pursue art, music, build and create physical things. It think it would make the world better (given time). I would love to get into fine woodworking. I don’t...

10/21/2025 9:37am Genuine question, do we actually want or need this version of the sport to be ‘cool’ to a mass market? Why do all industries in alternative and action sports chase approval from the general public so much? They are niche sports and likely always will be, I don’t think it’s bad to acknowledge these limitations. To that end, I agree...
