Ohlins is just a step or two above all others. Loic just always looks smoother in every situation and it can't just be him. I wonder what the agreement Specialized has with Ohlins and why none of the other big teams run Ohlins.

Now lets just hope RedBulls's coverage improves from the the first three races. I think Vital should take over.

With SRAM releasing the 52 tooth cog if you were not already wondering how far it will go you should be now. As the range of 1x's have increased so has the jumps from one cog to another as well as a number of other issues. Will we get to the point we just run a gear on the outside...

My money is on Marine. Vali will be an interesting one. Rachel? Is she defiantly coming back? With all the Athertons have going on I would not be surprised if she decided to retire. She is used to dominating and I think those days are over for many reasons.
I have this conversation with a lot of customers. In the PNW, these are 2nd/3rd/etc bikes. If you want one rig for everything, most of these brands offer a 140mm 29er, which seems to be the sweet spot. Unfortunately, the 140mm completes typically come with a spec that is burlier/heavier, almost the same as their 160mm counterparts. What I've been doing lately is custom building the 140mm platform with a build kit that is closer to the 120mm builds. Pike, 27mm rims, 2.3 or 2.4 EXO tires, etc. Keep the weight under 30lbs but have enough travel to back up...

A bit of a rant. If you take a look at the Geo diagram the point that the actual seat tube center line and this meaningless center line that is to represent a seat tube angle intersect what in the hell is this point meant to represent? Is it where my saddle might be when slammed down? The result is that the top tube length and SA mean nothing. When is the industry going to get its act together and actually figure out a way to actually communicate what my cockpit length is going to be at the saddle height...

Too bad for Sam that the race is not decided based on average finish position of each stage. Sam beat out Ritchie in that. It is also interesting that Sam and Ritchie are the only two to take a first place in a stage and Sam finishing either 1st or 2nd. Sam racing for the overall and Ritchie has nothing to loose and can go all out. Great racing!
