All

I´ve joined Bionicon Bikes in 2010 and was in charge of and executed all frame and suspension designs after 2012. Here are a few of the things, that we´ve designed in that period: https://www.bionicon.de/technik/ I´ve re-designed the existing Bionicon geometry-adjust system, introducing a double-positive and double negative air spring: https://www.mtb-news.de/forum/attachments/15-2x2-air-cartridge-jpg.3688… I graduated from university with the design of a bladder-based damping cartridge, which can be seen here at 3:15 (it´s in German though, sorry): https://videos.mtb-news.de/31011/eurobike_2013_bionicon A few years ago, I´ve designed an adjustable negative air can for X-Fusion Vector Air, because I believed this was a great shock with great...

What is?

Where have I seen that 11-speed logo before?

Part of Gwin's move from Specialized was because he didn't like rivalry within the team ie. having a fast team mate (Brosnan). He wants the team to be focussed on him. It's not like Moir is a slouch. Looking at his form during 2017 he is capable of challenging Gwin for victories if he can stay injury free. If Moir is up to speed in 2019 it should make for a very interesting season :-) Edit - not sure why I've been downvoted. I didn't make this stuff up. I remember Gwin saying he would rather have a younger rider...

"no re-branding." https://www.aliexpress.com/item/SENSAH-X01-Type-2-1-11-Speed-Rear-Derai… OK...

My 2019 Chameleon that I built from a frame

Isn't this the same thing? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Original-22speed-XT-DEORE-X1-M8000-sens… Holy crap 700g for the cassette hahaha https://www.aliexpress.com/item/11-52-T-andwielen-bike-cassette-11-velo…

Hi guys, Yes that video sucks! I never comment, but I was in Moab last week and ran into this guy on the trail. He is making frames, bars, stems, and wheels too. It all seems pretty legit and he is making improvements on it every product run. From what I can tell, The clutch is adjustable too. All of the weights are claimed to be similar to an Xo1 or close to XT. I'm pretty sure he isn't re branding it either. The dudes name is Taber West and his wheel company is Gravityworx. I wouldn't be surprised if...

Dude, i'm the most engineer of the engineers you can think of. Yet i can see that, for a lack of better term, this video is bad. I hate marketing, but i still kinda get how it works. A launch video should hype you up and show you some things. This sadly does neither. I hope their gear is better than the video (which is a completely un-engineer thing of me to say, since, to me, the only thing that SHOULD matter is the performance, not marketing).

Hm... Does anybody else find it funny that the marketing video includes a guy riding uphill with elbow pads and no knee pads, no shifting and by the looks of it a chinese (sold as Ztto on Amazon) cassette? It might be the official cassette, but not judging by the press shots. I'm all for competition, but man, when you're going against Shimano and Sram, you better have your product polished to the moon and back!
