Thank you all for the interest in our bikes and in our distribution / sales model. To give you a bit of context, we’re currently a team of 9 people at RAAW, based in Germany, and we ship worldwide directly from here. The US has actually grown into our biggest market after Germany, which is pretty wild considering that every RAAW in the US has been shipped individually from Germany. Our goal is, of course, to make the ordering process and ownership experience as easy as possible. Having stock in the US would be ideal, but that comes with a...

I knew it! What a shitty decision. Gotta believe this, as a brand new venue in Asia would’ve been one of the ones to DEFINITELY have boots on the ground. I’m doubly disappointed. Not only on the noticeable drop in quality it brought, but that they were shady with it. Spin it as some sort of pro move, that you’re holding it down in Digital Mountain Bike Studio Four or whatever. Or just say it. I could hear MBeaumont struggling with the location charade but RicMc was saying “here in Korea” …and they only had what?—three people there as mans...

Since Ronan is currently injured why not invite him to commentate using his ratboy impression. Hell invite ratboy too. Nobody would understand much but it would still be an improvement.

I believe in your country they call it 'tax minimization' and it's something you should be proud of doing.

If you watch Jenna Hastings Vlog you can see how much the track changes, and how much speed she gains, in just her three posted runs.

Vital RAW from South Korea YEOW! https://www.vitalmtb.com/videos/features/south-korea-vital-raw-world-cu….

Bruni did not race the final at msa

P.S. Praise the lord that new saint is still mechanical

I think it's a modification to be able to run a 27,5 wheel in a 29er rear triangle. As the wheel is smaller, the axle needs to be lower to keep the geometry of the bike. Thus this thingamadood to lower the axle position. I guess it's two aluminium blocks anchored in the (elongated on the V10) dropout hole to prevent rotation and bolted together as much as possible.

As much as I like Charlie's output, the use of AI images in thumbnails makes me scroll on past.

They look a lot like the crappy stamped RT66 rotors. In the first picture you can even see where the poor flatness is causing the pad to not contact the rotor fully.

Nothing i9 has made in a LONG time has been bombproof. Love them but they are not even close to bombproof

I remember when this near word for word argument was used in favour of 26ers.

New thread live here pertaining to all things DJI + eebs - have at it!

I forgot Pinion uses the name Motor-Gearbox-Unit, here I am thinking everyone was talking about Motor-GENERATOR- Units 😅 I would love to see someone make a crack at harvesting energy from braking or the suspension - I figure it could be a small equaliser for heavier riders who would normally have much less battery range available And @jeff.brines maybe we do need an Avinox thread, I was reading through all this and thought it was the ebike thread.....😬

I’m curious how many watts are needed for twisting a motor bike throttle.

strange, how do get seniors, loaded cargo bikes and so on get going in europe? nobody needs a throttle

Guy was an absolute treasure for cycling and I'm so stoked they're keeping his site up in all it's 90's splendor...

Here's that edit - so good!

it's almost as much as your megatower.
