9/6/2025 10:32am It’s hard to keep the independent air chambers from leaking one way or another. Ie neg leaking into positive. Dimple resets any leak every stroke. It’s huge for durability.

I mean for certain purposes rubber is a pretty amazing tool. Has a ton of properties that make it fairly incredible when used correctly. Especially when it comes to mass producing a product you know more than half of users aren’t going to follow service intervals.

Yeah dude if you don’t have a couple e-fats hanging off the back of the RV don’t even bother showing up to the 50s diner sports bar in this town. Names like PEDALOOG and VICTROX in big silver letters on the big square downtube beam member are a bonus.

See, that's the beauty: it can be all of those things. And the case is closed for me, I'd rather do long pedal rides on a too-heavy bike than ride a bike park or shuttle DH laps on a too-light bike.

9/2/2025 6:40pm The 20k bike is brilliant- if they sell at full pop you make a huge margin. If they don’t sell and you mark them 50% off you still make decent margins. Also- we’re all talking about it.

8/31/2025 1:28pm Couldn’t you say the same about an EXO+? Ie just up the pressure because the casing is more pliable? I guess I’m just curious- the main selling feature of the radials is a more compliant casing- which is already available via lighter versions of casings. Also I’m too cheap to buy a $115 tire for testing

8/31/2025 10:51am I did this on my S4 last-gen stumpy EVO to get the seat forward. At first I only filed the upper seat rail clamp with a round file so the saddle rails could go maybe 5mm further forward. After cutting it’s more like 10-15mm forward. This is a weird old reverb prototype and I had extra set of clamps so...

8/28/2025 12:48pm I’m also curious about how the radials protect the rim… I’ve run a DH casing maxxgrip Assegai vs an EXO+ maxxgrip Assegai and it seemed like the EXO+ had better grip and absorbed more trail chatter. But I know I’d kill the lighter casing at a bike park.

Finally! A proper electronic DH rear derailleur. I've been wondering when we'd be able to pay $1500 to ruin three derailleurs on the same rock in one race weekend. Can't come fast enough.

8/13/2025 7:03am Cool to see it will be official. I lived across the street from there in 2012… there were already some steep skidder trails out there I rode and cleaned up a bit. https://youtu.be/gDmvSwCrfCw?si=CufLhQeiUsa64x76

(I don't really want to comment on California cuz it's such an outlier, despite being a huge part of the MTBing industry... but I would not describe many of the e-bikers here as veteran enthusiasts. If anything, the reverse is true. But we're also getting to a point where EVERYONE is on an e-bike.)

8/10/2025 10:27am The non-vpp e bike was in the works years ago. They realized vpp with a shock tunnel, battery and motor basically impossible to get a good frame package (long seat post insertion, water bottle etc)

The real test will be if the side knobs last more than 3 rides.

Lenz is still very much active, at least according to their Facebook: I’ve always kinda wanted one of their FS SS models, but it doesn’t make any sense for me.

8/1/2025 4:37pm Are you sure Lenz is done? Website is still up although very out of date I was always impressed Lenz managed to make aluminum frames in house in Colorado- and had some serious hydroforming tube shapes- not sure if that was in house or not. I contacted him probably 10 years ago asking if he’d do a custom run of...

I use the frame storage bags and then mash a piece of grout sponge in there under the door. Keeps everything from rattling around.
