9/28/2026 8:09pm 2026: Fox takes a beating (with Easton bats) 🤣 Always fun to look back on the original PR... https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2023/11/15/2780978/27025/en/… Perhaps 1 + 1 does not actually equal 3?

9/26/2026 9:11am Hopefully I'll do a quick substack on this one, because its really bad. LOL. Fox bought the company for $572M, financed with debt. Interest on the debt was roughly $107-115M per year. The unit was generating roughly $65-73M in EBTIDA per year. When you net everything out, Fox lost about $400M before counting capex and working capital. The only thing Fox retains in this deal are the losses. No IP sticks around, not that they'd want it anyway. Baseball has nothing to do with suspension. OUCH.

9/26/2026 9:09am Well, one is made by canyon and the other made by Norco. It’s not this threads or this community’s mandate to cave into your demands and outline a spreadsheet of the differences between bikes. Calling us nerds and demanding we do your homework is just high school-ish behavior.

9/25/2026 10:13am or company bike leasing in germany. that’s huge over there. your employer leases the bike for you, sometimes pays also the full rates or partly, if the employee pays it gets deducted from their salary before taxes or all the social insurances, so they pay less than if they lease it on their own. one of the main reasons ebikes took off so hard in that market

9/23/2026 5:56pm you would be surprised how little a ton of dirt/sand/gravel goes when spread out. 10m x 10m x 10mm depth is 1m3, thats a light dusting. Let alone build anything.

9/23/2026 5:50pm It isn't like inflation statistics are difficult to find. Based on those tables, the highest rate of annual CPI inflation in the US this century was 3.8% (2008, i.e. The GFC) and the average was 2.1%... until COVID happened. Since then the average has been 4.4%. If that continues, it will take less than ten years to exceed the preceding 20. Although if you're here to complain about the concept of inflation in the first place, well I can't help you there.

9/21/2026 12:25pm I watched the entire men's race yesterday. It was pretty fantastic. I hate to say it, because I love DH soooo much more than XC on a personal level, but XC is a more natural, and (please don't hate me) better, television product than DH. As for the race itself, I was really hoping to see Bjorn Riley push to the front in the last couple of laps, but he did serious work to finish as high as he did after his misfortune in XCC on Friday. It would have been amazing to see him get his first XCO win...

9/18/2026 11:30pm I’ve had them on the enduro bike and e bike, and I like em! It’s not life changing, and I’m not sure if I’ve ever slipped a grip and crashed prior - but they’ve been a nice $35 upgrade that feels pretty solid for the bike park - and they’ve protected my hands from a few branches!
