Hello Jeff, I introduce myself, I am Pablo Fiorilli, designer and founder of Bright Racing Shocks and first (in the 90s) founder and designer of Fimoco Engineering always engaged in the design and development of racing shock absorbing systems. I have been dealing with suspensions since 1989 and I have worked as a designer for over 10 years also in the aerospace sector developing flight mechanisms. I would like to respond to your comments, which I find very relevant and interesting. I try to go in order: SAG ZERO when we talk about NO SAG we mean the use of...

This bike checks every box for me - every box worth of things I won't buy: holes in the headset bearings, weird proprietary shocks, lockout levers that require substantial effort to remove, unnecessary integration. Is there a market for this? Have to admit it looks nice.

I hope any bike company selling integrated headset routing sells exactly zero bikes and kills this trend in it's infancy.

For me, thicker grub style pins always have much less bite and grip than the thinner, sharper through pins and it's not even close.

10/15/2022 3:27pm

I will NEVER buy any frame that has anything going through the headset. Ever. To all bike manufacturers out there, you need to have a question for any new and/or existing design engineer asking them if they "approve of through the headset cable routing", and to anyone who answers yes, they are immediately fired or told good luck and to...

Just too much branding for me. Had they left off the Wolf Tooth logo on the rubber itself, I would have already bought them.

"Pie Plates are overrated"..says the guy in PA. I lived in Colorado for 10yrs up until a little over a month ago. Plenty of hour or longer climbs starting out at 6000ft that wide range gears come in handy. It's no different than having 2-3 speeds up front as far as range and MUCH simpler

Been working on bicycle disc brakes since 1994, I’m pretty good at it. Not to say it’s impossible that I’m doing something wrong, but unlikely. I’ve even taken the brakes off the bike, hung them vertically, lever on top, bled them multiple times, ensuring everything correct, only to have issues return within a few weeks. As many others have stated, it’s not a bleed issue, it’s a design/hardware flaw/wear issue. If nothing else, I may have finally found the one person in the world that can properly bleed every Shimano brake with inconsistent bite point issues.

So the insane taxes, fees, water mandates, costs of electricity ,gas, coddling of drug addicts and mental patients , racist teaching policies, dystopian/tyrannical mask and vax requirements, pedo approved laws, I could go on. None of that is government related ? Or you just approve of all of it? Please stay here. Don't go anywhere else and screw it up with your bizarre beliefs or naivete. They really should enact policies to stop any voting by new residents in these states for 5-10 years to prevent Cali refugees from ruining the states they flee to. As a refugee from this...
