What we really want is a well ventilated, full featured, CARBON FF helmet weighing 600 grams. Through it on your pack or handlebar if you have a long grind up.

The wonder Metal is Ti, as are the bars. Taller pedal pins are on the forward and back edges. The guards are custom molded carbon prepreg. Prepreg doesn't ship well. No $250 saddle for me, the Chromag is perfect.

I'll try to respond to all of your comments here. 1. That saddle is stupid, and since I'm not a roadie, the best way to avoid prostate cancer is to put the nose down, which also greatly aids your climbing. 2. Handlebar is custom 810mm 8/5* because I like it that way. It is light, strong and with a touch of flex. 3. The DT and fork leg guards wrap about 60% of the outer diameters and guard against rock strikes. The DT guard is attached with a small amount of adhesive, the leg guards clip on and are zippied...

Silly. Bedding is a largely a function of the precise angles of pads and rotor, determined in part by the hub and frame brake mount, which are fixed in the system. This gizmo just allows you to transfer pad material to the rotor. Go ride your bike.

It’s 160 or 175 out back. The fork is 200. You will appreciate the lack of wheel rub coming from an SB150.

You could try, but unless you have a Tig, you’d be wasting your time and might hurt yourself. I bet carbon fantastic plastic bars make good kindling.

You could get a Geometron G1 which is capable of manifesting the same geometry or a longer or shorter rear end, higher or lower bottom bracket and different travel amounts depending on how you set it up. Also, the G1 has the most advanced MTB shock available and it's a coil.

Could be better IME. The one I rode (an early one) didn't make it through the demo day. Glad it had bolts.

People are saying it’s over damped but is it or are they just feeling the geometry of it? It sounds like it needs a rearward bump input to move. So in the video when he hits the log the fork absorbs the bump but then rebounds before the wheel hits the ground. The next input would be the landing which is mostly upward and is similar (but opposite) to trying to push down on the bars. So the bump is absorbed but the landing is locked out. Both of these events happen so close together that maybe it gets the...

Hey DrewB, apparently you didn't take the hint from the other people in the comments who didn't share the trail name or location, so here's a more direct hint: don't do that.
