11/20/2025 1:35pm Putting tires on my bontrager line DH is a rage inducing exercise. It took me two people and 30 minutes of swearing to get a Schwalbe Albert on the rim.

In honor of the 1000th page, we should vote on the best meme of 2025: 👍🏻 for “Crab” 👎🏻 for “6-7” edit: Carcinization is the antithesis of innovation. Maybe we should keep crab talk on the crab talk forum and keep this thread focused on MTB tech rumors and/or innovation.

11/18/2025 1:08pm Has anyone here mixed shimano levers with maven calipers?
