Mavens on a pike equipped bike is an absolute statement. "I go fast".

I’m currently riding a steel front end with aluminum rear off a Trek session. Great combination! Similar to that Vampire, different rear axle location/layout. Fun bike!

Pretty sure those bars make it absolutely clear who's post it is, but here's the link if there's any remaining doubt: https://www.instagram.com/stories/daknorton/3355595831867180463/

Here is my counter retort scrubs are cool as fuck source, refer below image case closed

BOLD statements, "the best just got better" clevis shock mount, headset cable routing, rear end as stiff as an overcooked noodle, "the best"

BRAKES

do people even read the replies before posting?!

May not be as steep as Rock Creek or Windrock's Start gates but by no means flat. There's gopro effect in that video for sure.

I'm most interested in pad life tests. All the top brakes are fantastic in my eyes, they all behave slightly differently but all provide more than enough power to lock a wheel, anything more than that is unnecessary. It's about lever feel and heat dissipation for me, lever feel is subjective. But I'd love to see heat dissipation tests. Some brakes are absolutely cooked after a DH run, and power at the first corner is great, but by the last it's gone.

He could have 1 or 13 on his back still my favorite rider to watch rip a turn. And let me know the next time someone takes the overall 3 years in a row in any discipline bizutch

is there a tire forum thread

Wow, the whole 'first' thing is really embarrassing marketing. In no particular order, Fox, RS, MRP, Lauf, probably others I'm forgetting make suspension gravel forks. If you wanted to be the first inverted gravel fork, sure, but that isn't what they're actually saying anywhere. Not sure how many of those forks anyone else is selling, either...

hate to be the one to break it to ya kid but MTB secretly stands for Must Toke Bongs

“Tacky” isn’t just for dirt anymore. The gold on gold is objectively bad. That the dampers fit existing forks is great—an admittedly low bar but that’s what mtb manufacturers have done to us. I’ll put one in a fork and pretend I can tell what’s going on for sure. But if it were only offered in the gold/gold, I’d be rattle canning that thing immediately. No more needs to be said.

Bro you made the same post on the Facebook group and looked like a fool there too. Stop bitching. Go to your local forbidden dealer and order one

its new and you are supposed to want and buy one. what else do you need to know!?
