They're making a "true mullet" from what I hear. Gonna be 32" rear wheel and a 24" front. Just a render from a brand look-book, but pretty polarizing.

That looks like the production boxxer, so I would think that it's a mistake, the only fork in the world cup right now that has more than 203mm is the Dorado proto that Aon is on, and I believe that it's 210mm

8/27/2026 6:03pm I'd wager no, just because all the new stuff moved away from it, and that attachment to the cage looks the same as the dual spring jawn.

I think so yeah. I always kind of laughed at the overheating comments because I feel like riders will worry about that so heavily to write it off, then they go ride their Specialized Enduro with 18 of the 20 bearings notching and a lightly blown coil but still enjoy their ride to some degree. (Nothing against people that ride an Enduro, just jabbing at the insane number of bearings to worry about)

8/7/2026 7:10pm Man, why do all the cool short travel/dc bikes hate making XL frames? Looking at you, Forbidden. Ripley SL also did look nice, and that solar-powered US-made portion was something that made for a good story.

8/7/2026 6:55am I thought I saw a photo of some 2FOs with like reusable zip tie to strap it down. Can't remember the name of them. But the current stock was from like 2022 or something. Probably solid shoe for msrp of 120 vs some of the others. But they did have a ton of stock of the Demo pants that I...

So are Ripley SLs, they've basically canceled all the XL sizes of the frame and the blue colorway, not sure exactly what is going on, but I've heard that something is going on with the carbon supplier and some government snatching up the carbon allocated for Ripley frames for themselves. Weird stuff.

I always let up before shifting, it's just good practice. As for Pinion, apparently it's limited in the shifting mechanism power, not pedal power. On their assembly line they shift it with an external servo motor under full load without problems.

How often is shifting under load a result of shifting too late? With a gearbox you’re able to shift at any other time. It may open more shifting windows than it closes

Probably partly due to less active clutch on the dual chain setups. The lower chain line grows and shrinks a lot during suspension travel on high-pivot, single-chain setups, but the lower chain line on dual chain systems shouldn't change much, if at all under sus travel.
