5/14/2025 9:43am The front shock mount is on an eccentric cam so you can change the LR and bb height by rotating the shock mount. The other end of the shock is on a yoke with a threaded heim joint so the bb height can also be adjusted this way. The suspension is a layout like the Nukeproof Giga. Short link off...

5/13/2025 8:43am There was also a couple shots of the Ohlins shock in there with a view to see more of what they have going on. Electric valve on the HSC circuit. Maybe we are getting close to them sharing the info on it.

5/12/2025 11:27am There are 3d print files floating around for STFU style guide. Less than a dollar of TPU filament gets probably 90% of what $400 gets you on trail.

5/9/2025 11:45pm We talk about the tech and the rumors until there is new tech and rumors to talk about. I don’t understand what you haters are getting confused about. Thread derailleurs are part of the game, baby.

5/8/2025 10:18am Tube....you know like a round tube. Same as bikes were made from before molded carbon. You take a round tube and squish it a oval shape so it's optimized to the loads it's going to see. A tubular structure is better suited to the forces of a crank than an I-beam. See EEwings here. Drop the hirth joint, make them...

5/8/2025 8:11am Copying the 5Dev cranks tells you everything you need to know about a company. All they care about is looks. The originals are a horrible engineering design. They should have copied Came Creek EEwings. But that would require some skilled welders and not just feeding a CNC machine. Innovation would be using ultra high strength steel from the automotive industry...

5/6/2025 10:28am Devinci did it better with the Wilson HP proto. No 6 bar needed to get a decent LR.

4/28/2025 7:43am Jessie can't hold back when there is a crowd. Full gas to flat on S5 and doing a years worth of pushups in single go. ALN also on the top spot, hope she has a great season back at the sharp end of the EWS.

4/25/2025 7:34pm I think the "51st State" bs will cut down on most of that. Can't promise all of them will stop.

4/22/2025 11:10am One of the bids that contained some former staff was turned down. Will be interesting to see the outcome. Kinda hope it doesn't go back to the original owner and one of the local Shore based options get's it (no diss to the crew in QC, just that Rocky's soul is the Shore).

4/22/2025 9:23am Love seeing 10 of the top 20 being BC. For us not having a real strong DH race series here in BC we have certainly putting out a strong crew of racers.

4/20/2025 7:51pm WB is a crown jewel. They have lots of crappy places to sell off before they would consider selling WB.

4/20/2025 7:48pm STFU guides. They actually work. They also help with the mythical pedal kickback. External cables with proper guides/clamps. Lastly a silent rear hub. But none of it really matters when you ride solo with earbuds in 90% of the time.
