1. Exactly in the teasing that MS has put on Instagram, with this throwback Markus Stöckl post: https://www.instagram.com/p/C0uJH5csBpi/ They could've posted something from the Lehikoinen/Caluori/Kovarik era a.k.a. 2007, but they went very far back to make ties to the M1. That is saying something. 2. Dak is on record suggesting ”few things” will change for him next season, hinting that he will be on the same bike. We know Intense probably doesn't want to spend big and focus on young talent, so what does that leave us with? Good enough for you? Mx

Again, just look at the leverage ratio curves, you should have done this before purchasing. To me it seems like this link was made for the Druid but also happens to fit the Dreadnought while being servicable. I havent used it because I was afraid of what the available data told me; but it sounds like it did exaclty what it what it was advertised to do.

Yes, you are 100% entitled to your opinion. No one is taking that away from you Fun fact about the internet: no one has to pay the hosting costs to keep your opinions up on their site.

If I owned a company and had a review of my product or an interaction even closely remote to what you have shown on this forum, I would block you from any form of being able to communicate with me or my customer base. You show a lack of understanding and willingness to become educated in a subject which you chose to spend you money. Get over it. They blocked you because you suck as communicating and are a kook. They aren’t stifling your opinion, they’re stifling the harassment you have chosen to pursue. Give it up, Bro. I’ve had...

It doesn't seem like there's anything "faulty" with the links though, just that you don't need the extra progressivity for your riding. Cascade are pretty clear in the advertising/tech info that the links increase progression, so if you've tried the link and found out you don't need the extra progression it's unfortunate for you but no fault of theirs.

In my experience, suspension is wildly complicated. Often times the correct response to a problem is the opposite of your first instinct. Sometimes if your suspension feels harsh, the correct response is adding compression. Other times, if a shock feels harsh, it means your fork is too soft. Other times it's your shock's rebound or spring rate. And sometimes it's bar height or tire pressure. A lot of variables, local maximums, and statistical noise.

Reading for the OP: https://www.singletracks.com/mtb-gear/i-increased-the-rear-travel-and-p… From the article.... "Bottom line If you’re on the fence about getting one, just know that you’ll want to do a lot of experimenting with air pressure adjustments, volume reducers, and shock settings. If you are more of a set it and forget it type of rider, then this linkage might cause you more headaches than anything. A lot of patience is required, especially if you will be attempting to install it yourself at home."

"The jersey shall be a long-sleeved shirt whose sleeves extend down to the rider's wrists. Jerseys used in downhill events should be of a type specifically designed and sold for use in BMX Racing or Mountain Bike downhill events. Jerseys designed for road cycling, skinsuits, or one-piece suits comprising the jersey and the pants/shorts are not permitted for use in downhill events. The jersey must be either close fitting around the waist or must be tucked into the pants before the start to not cause interference."

Once again, this has nothing to do with racing talk. Go start another forum for your weird soapboxing

Some bikes could in theory have clearance issues putting both standard and trunnion in. Part of the reason why trunnion exists in the first place.

Nah bro. I’m gonna have to say it’s the “mY rEviEwS aRe gETtiNg deLeTeD” guy.

Ronan ☘

Looks like Intense - MS is confirmed. David Trummer on what looks like a raw alloy M1

Bike is covered but Ronan was riding at Dyfi bike park.. 👀

Connor Ferron is selling an old ride. Something new coming

I am going to shout Ronan on giant. After that post back on page 51 or so, people thought it was an Unno. Reece Wallace recently posted a bike check of a glory. Made me check out the new 24 reign. seat tube/clamp are similar to Dunnes pic. Cool if so, a gung ho brand (in the past). Maybe a good sign?

jsut because one rider follows another, or a team, doesnt mean they are changing teams. at the end of the day these are all riders following their buddies on social media. no different than the rest of us. we all shoudl stop worrying about who follows who when it comes to team rumors... unless there is an actual "can't wait to be on the team with you" i wouldnt look to far into a like or comment on someones post.
