The war in Iran and the Strait of Hormuz situation will have a net negative impact on the bike industry due to increased shipping costs and supply chain disruption (carbon fiber, plastic, and rubber).

There are many worse things in MTB, as a for instance, cable tourism has entered the chat.

Unfortunately that is not correct. RC, FC, and WB are all horizontal measurements. CSL is the point to point measurement from center of BB to rear axle, and there's no name (or need) for the equivalent version at the front.

It really sounds like a bad bleed if you have to pull them to the grips for full power. The m6120s are one of the most underrated brakes out there in my opinion. I have a set of Formula Cura 4 on one bike where I had m6120 earlier, the Shimanos had more power for sure with the setup I use.

Why Why Why Why are the colors on the clickers the exact opposite of pretty much every other damper on the market? That's just stupid. If you want to differentiate, make them some other colors, like DVO's green clickers, Ohlins' gold, or Cane Creek's yellow or just black. It's already "upside down", so having the colors opposite is just asking for incorrect settings to happen, since the colors _AND_ locations match current products despite the operations being reversed.

Skunk Works Suspension Liked a reply to forum topic Why are yokes sideways?

The bike that launched the shock-destroying, clevis-extension era! The notched design with bolt on arms was a half baked emergency measure. The frame was originally designed for an elegant, albeit proprietary, one piece shock/yoke. Unfortunately the entire in-house suspension program at Specialized was scrapped before it ever made it to production. The notch/arm design was created to allow the use of any standard shock. I notched quite a eyelets in the Morgan Hill shop before the big suspension OEs got up to speed. There were only Qty8 of these beauties ever made. Nicknamed The Tuning Fork, they produced a lovely...

$6,666 x 15% = $1,000. i.e. at the low range what was $6,666 became $7,666. $1,538 x (15% + 50%) = $1,000. i.e. at the high range what was $1,538 became $2,538. Many, perhaps most businesses operate by borrowing money, converting it into products, selling those products at a gross profit, using that to pay interest, salaries, leases and other...

2/23/2026 9:53am
Yes. All bike handling exists on a frequency spectrum - even riding in a straight line (because bikes don't even ride in a straight line, they link a series of oscillating falls and corrective turns). Google's dictionary definition of flick is " a sudden sharp movement". It's AI answer says ""Flickable" describes something that is light, agile, and easy to...

Correct. Same as Yeti Sixfinity. And Yeti's 303 DH dual rail bikes are also 4-bars.

This nomenclature came about over 30 years ago to contrast Faux-Bar and Four-Bar. I say be glad we have these shorthand names. I once recorded a video where I carefully said “short link four bar suspension”, “chainstay pivot four bar linkage”, “linkage driven single pivot”, etc… it was frustrating to deliver and incredibly boring to listen to. You’re more likely...
