All

can we please stay rumors in here?! i get that these discussions are fun, but also annoying to most who just want to read about new tech/rumors and don‘t want to scroll through pages of off-topic discussions regarding chainstay length/right amount of travel/dropper post insertion/ etc. thx guys!

Ever broke a hub axle?

The plot twist in this video literally had me dropping my jaw

You just adjust your technique. If you rode exclusively high pivots for a while, then hopped on a more traditional design, it would immediately feel very strange the other way too.

Notower or megamad, pick a crab and be a dick about it.

Shrinkflation, just like the box of cookies. Pay the same get less.

the U.S. intense team is on "regular" m16s (for now). Axess Intense will be on gearboxes at the world cups.

Apologies if I missed it (and I did look) but all of the Intense Factory team look like they’re still on tradition drivetrain bikes. Are they still planning on running gearbox bikes for World Cup races? You’d think they would want to have that all sorted out by now.

SRAM update there cranks without saying anything? Just bought a set of 165mm replacing 170mm and noticed how much slimmer it is by the spindle

Far be it from me to suggest a new thread to the person who suggests new threads, but I’d personally love to see some of the bizarro crap that ends up in front of your eyeballs, Spomer. ‘Uncle gordo’s Inbox’, perhaps? *edit to correct Gordon to gordo

I didn't think I'd ever say this but here goes, they should probably do headset cable routing.

my brother in christ what are they doing needs this but gently caressing your ballsack from the front

this press release i just received seemed pretty tech but maybe it belongs in the geometry thread. i'll start here... I am reaching out to you because I believe your audience would be interested in our company's launch in early May and the two new products we're launching with, the Cardio Speeder and the Super-E. These are the first-ever "procumbent flying position" electric bikes on the market. The procumbent flying position, a new riding position invented by Martoni CEO, Marty Williams, is a posture that combines ergonomic riding with speed. On a procumbent bike, there is no saddle; riders step...

frameworks in the wind tunnel! their sea otter results would indicate info was learned.

The amount of racing technology and knowledge located in North Carolina is pretty unmatched in the country and even the world. There are a few full size wind tunnels around Charlotte, what I was surprised by was the amount of cycling stuff already on the wall there, it looks like every helmet brand with different models and a bunch of different road kits. After the most recent NASCAR chassis changes wind tunnel time has been really limited for the teams so there is excess capacity in the facilities and I believe prices have come down so it is more reasonable...

FW is really the little team that could. It's pretty amazing the access to the good stuff that they get.
