no offence to Mr. King, but just because you have a good racing resume, doesn't mean you can design tires. Seriously, this industry needs to get away from getting pro riders to 'develop' tires. There are many nobodies out there who have more knowledge on tire design.

just like in MX, you want to go fast, run your fork stiff. It allows you to skip over ruts rather than dive into them. It feels really uncomfortable and forces you ride faster because they barely work going slow!

7/8/2014 9:49am When I was co-organizing races we'd always find enough vollies for marshalls. If it wasn't family or friends, we'd have to sometimes really bribe people to get out. Buy them lunch, keep them hydrated, free t-shirt, beer - basically anything they wanted while out there, we would provide for them.

Faction Added a reply to Why are flat tires something we still see these days?
6/27/2014 9:13am That system looks like it will work well in mountain biking. It is based off of Nuetec's TuBliss system for dirtbikes. They were trying to develop it a few years ago, but obviously it didn't happen. From my experience using the moto version, when it worked, it worked perfectly. The only draw back is that mx tires get holes in...

6/24/2014 3:08pm It would be hard for me to give up on running tubeless (13th year!) but I would like to try this anyway.
Faction Added a reply to Who would win? Sam Hill vs Nico Vouilloz in their prime
6/19/2014 7:42am Perhaps I was too harsh. Sam Hill is one of the all time greats. His accomplishments on the bike are legendary. By saying 'one trick pony' I was referring to him being very good on steep technical tracks and not so good on flatter pedally tracks.
MPH24 Liked a comment about Feature 7 Things the Leogang World Cup Taught Me
6/17/2014 6:08pm
Lot people always complain about wanting tracks that are "legit downhill tracks." What is a "legit downhill" track? Should there not be high speed sections? Motorways with big tables? Should every track can be full on gnar and insanely technical the entire time? Needles complained about arm pump at the bottom of leogang. I just think variety is key to finding who is the best rider over the year, which should be the goal. Vital crew. It would be cool to get a comprehensive review of what all the riders think about the track. I think certain riders will bitch...

Totally! The ones who complain are the ones who can't compete for the win. Remember when Peat won his World Championship? The amount of whining that some riders did over that track was nauseating, then Peat killed everyone on a full on downhill bike! It was like a big 'fuck you' to those guys who can't pedal. FWIW I like gnar and super steep technical tracks, but that only rewards one type of rider. The season should reward the rider with the best overall skill set.
