8/20/2025 1:32pm I didn't watch Adam's trackwalk. I wasn't saying anything other than saying I have felt something similar to what BK said so I got a completely different takeaway from that podcast. I'm not here to be the arbiter of right or wrong nor am I pretending to be. Was BK the only person to take that alt line the previous...

8/20/2025 11:08am Long ramble, sorry. Just offering a different perspective from this because my first reading of the podcast episode was completely different. I listened to the whole podcast. I think the answer BK gave seemed accurate and I didn't hear it as complaining (and he even said in the podcast that it's going to sound like sour grapes coming from him)...

I wouldn’t read into it much. Pivot/bernard have plenty of opportunity in plenty of spaces. Masters Walker Masters podium was one of the truly great enduro moments. Race winner. Fan favorite. Not many of those guys left in enduro.

Relevant graph is relevant. Something something diminishing returns.

8/18/2025 11:16am I'm not in a large city but I am in a place that HATES cyclists. Any riding I do near cars/trucks (mtb or road/commuter) I approach in a similar way: I'm not going to trust anyone or anything and I will make it impossible for anyone to cause a problem for me. The last time I trusted a motorist, I...

Back in mech life daze I learned after the 10-100th time the first spot to check for creaks was the chainring bolts. The number of times I had practically torn down a complete bike for naught due to one or more of those buggers being a tad loose was pretty embarrassing. Plus side, later when one of the other mechs was in the process of doing the same I got to be the smug hero who would tighten the damn things and solve their half hour + struggle. That bit of learning drives me to this day, often pulling the...

That’s exactly what I’ve been running on my 130/140 Stumpy and it’s been awesome.

Add pressure to the shock. I find that balancing front and rear can be tricky because changes at one end affect the other. Increasing pressure on the rear shock will lower the travel usage and help prevent bottom out. I find that if the rear end is too soft I use less fork travel since the bike can just leverage against the rear shock instead of the fork moving.

7/23/2025 10:16am I'd forget everything if I could. I'm very capable of thinking about X so focusedly that my feet take me right past Y to go to Z even if Y is leaning up against the door. Which is also why I don't have batteries on my bike. They'll be forgotten immediately. My focus walks me right past my lunch and...

someone please start a broken bikes thread and continue the discussion there. on the topic of racing, there's a Monster Pro DH race in Utah this weekend and we'll be there. Stoked! Attendance may be a little less-attended (Asa and Neko at Hardline, Luca said he's only doing National Champs), but excited nonetheless. Stay tuned for some #USDH goods this week.

7/22/2025 1:48pm So you're telling me people have a hard time maintaining perspective? Guy who was hired to help bike company test bikes because he rides hard enough break bikes actually goes out and rides hard enough to break bikes? Guy who rides hard when cameras aren't rolling also rides hard when cameras are rolling? "...he asked for the clip to be...

7/22/2025 12:59pm I'm definitely not coming at you or being snarky about the bike. I'm saying that sometimes things happen to bikes and I remember when a similar thing happened to a Pivot and the mtb internet went into a tizzy about it. I'll be curious to see if this gets much attention.

Someone on the other site is saying he couldn't get his visa sorted in time. I know he's had visa issues before, I was hoping he'd be in a better position now he's on a bigger team, but if the information is correct that's a real shame.

There's also 10 World Cups to get through this year (+ Worlds...). Might be that some really prefer to rest up at this point in the season.

This is a sick looking little bike. Trek's new approach will be cool to learn more about.

7/22/2025 12:43pm According to people during Hardline Tazmania, that only happens to Pivots. Does that mean that - just perhaps - bikes that get ridden hard sometimes break?

7/22/2025 10:45am Complete speculation (I've both not looked at the Hardline start list close enough to remember who's on it and have heard nothing of this sort otherwise): I'd bet he's staying out because he's doing really well in the DH World Cup; exceeding expectations even if the results haven't been as good as hoped. He qualified first in Andorra and -...
