casman86 Added a comment about press release UpDown Funn Dropper Post in 175mm Travel

You must have a much different leg/torso ratio than me. I'm 6' 3" with a 150mm dropper on a Patrol frame. 150mm drop is plenty low for me but I could fit 175mm on this frame just barely.

Sweet, they somehow magically made it work with no battery. Good to see some real companies still coming out with real, useful products.

Hm. Maybe I'm lucky with my Reverb, but I haven't had a single problem with it in 9 months of riding. No bleeds, no lock outs, no hot weather problems (90 degree summer), no cold weather problems (snow rides). At some point I might put a Wolf Tooth on it because I hate the plunger, but it isn't because it doesn't work. I'll give you less effort on the shifter. The rest of it? meh. Internal routing. Accuracy? That remains to be seen.

Wireless things on something that's literally attached to the thing it's getting the signal from, and you have to charge a battery on a human powered vehicle. Just imagine if they could make it powered by your thumb and require no battery? Then it might go along with the whole bicycle thing.

You're hilarious. I'm impressed that there's so many Sram employees moderating the comments with up/down votes. This is only a product for Outerbike/Ebike/Yuppie types. If you have something on your mountain bike that you have to charge besides a headlight, go find a different sport.

While every push from companies is 29" 29" 29", the fact is that 27.5 continues to win WC and EWS more than 29" They don't need banned. over 5'11" consider a 29, 5'10" and below will probably perform better on a 27.5 And remember that Danny Hart couldn't manhandle his 29. Wiki says 5'10" but reality is more like 5'7. Greg Minnaar and the likes are guys that 29' makes sense. In the end riders are fast, not the bikes.

Have heard of warranty issues with them, which scared me away because I don't have the disposable income to risk it. A rider told me that you have to pay crash replacement price for things that should have been covered in a standard manufacturer defect warranty. Same rider also told me he loves the way the bike rides.

Make an e-bike. Go for it. But using an iconic name from your history of race bred machines? I think the program managers made a bit of a poor choice there for a pun name? Haaaaa. I'm going to go ahead and guess there are some salty employees/designers/engineers at Intense on this one.

I didn't really like Intense bikes anyway, so it doesn't matter that this brand has eliminated all possibility of me ever buying one of their bikes now.
