11/11/2024 7:03am This shit is ridiculous rofl Anyone who's read or even skimmed The Wealth of Nations understands that limiting free trade is deleterious for both sides. Personally I stocked myself to the gills with riding gear and parts to weather this shitstorm if it happens.

I'm a fan of Freerider 2 and Canvas Rider. Here are my favorite tracks: Slopestyle Hall Rocky Shore MTN Track Speedy North Shore North Shore Rampage BIG Jumps Beijing 4X Track Million Tip: Press 'Z' to flip around and 'Enter' to restart I also like the old school 'Trial Bike' game 
Anybody else have a favorite? Do you know of any other good Freerider 2 tracks?

Very badly. Makes all imported frames and parts more expensive, passes on those costs to consumers. Frames and parts in the country are already discounted to sell, meaning they won't be ordering any more at a 10%+ increased price as they can't already move the cheaper ones. A universal tariff is a horrendous economic policy

Not to be overtly political, but the US’s once and future president has indicated he intends to impose significant tariffs on foreign manufactured goods. Let’s assume for discussion that this actually happens -- anyone care to conjecture what effect such a policy would have on this industry?

My mans you went IN on the brushed silver. It might pop off even harder with a Title chrome bar or Doom Ti bar. Regardless, awesome whip.

didnt even realize they were just Rs until you said it. This is a totally missed opportunity to throw the LTD Mavens on there. The red would look perfect on it.

Hey biz thread subscribers, I met with Jeff about a month ago for an Inside Line to discuss the current state of things. It was a rad discussion. The podcast and its copy are below. Enjoy! I know I did. Thanks to Maxxis Tires | FOX | Jenson USA for supporting The Inside Line Today we're joined by Jeff Brines, a long-time mountain biker, Litter Mag and Vital MTB fan. He's also educated and versed in finance. He kicked off a forum thread on Vital MTB that asked " Will more companies be shutting down in the next 12-24 months?"...

I actually tried running pedal extenders, which confirmed that I love a wider Q-factor for my XL frame. One of the extenders snapped off after about a week. Luckily it happened at the bottom of a hectic descent and not during it. I reached out to a different, more reputable manufacturer of pedal extenders and said that they were not rated for MTB. If you're talking about hitting pedals on things because of a wider Q, I've never had that issue.
