I have wondered this for a while as well. If I'm allowed to say it, being the one who is doing it, I think it's insane how fast we ride gnarly terrain after only one look at it. It makes for loose riding and wild moments, and this is why I have thought Vital Raws in the past were sweet. Unfortunately those moments are hard to catch on camera as there is so much track that we race. More cameras would be ideal, I feel like last year we had a lot more camera's out on track getting footage for...

New Canyon LUX to be revealed very soon, possibly as early as this Weekend. I don't have much to tell you, there's no surprises with this one. From what my contact told me it's more evolution than revolution. It's basically exactly what you'd expect from a XC race bike in 2022. A little lighter, a little more progressive angles, headset-integradted...

Sorry to hijack the Topic but: SHOULD Every bike come with replaceable threaded inserts??? After owning a Canyon bike with these inserts im a huuuge fan, Technically should make the frame last longer in situations. I remember stripping one on a Rocky Altitude '21 on an alloy frame and They werent going to warranty it - I sent my Torque wrench to them and they sent me a replacemant frame

It's a custom frame using a VPP design, not a Santa Cruz frame.

hogfly Liked a reply to forum topic Pros & Cons of High Pivot or Idler Equipped Bikes

5/27/2022 12:26pm
My son went from a Specialized Status to the new GT Force. Quite a difference in bikes. He basically feels that the high pivot is way more planted (duh). At first he felt like he wasn't able to throw it around as well, but as he's gotten more accustomed to the bike (and he's also grown and gotten stronger), he's not really complaining about it not jumping as well or being as jibby as the Status. Some of that difference also likely comes from moving from the mullet to full 29er as well as a huge difference in geometry (rear...

You guys can deny it all you want, but everybody I know is planning their exit from Cali. Every one of those families uprooting and leaving was for political reasons and came at great pain and expense. At least 20 I know personally have gone with their entire families (multiple properties sold in most cases) . I'm just delayed to allow my kid to graduate with his buddies. There is a reason most companies not related to Social Media or locked into a service type business are leaving or planning on it. Looks like Aaron already got it done, but...

So the insane taxes, fees, water mandates, costs of electricity ,gas, coddling of drug addicts and mental patients , racist teaching policies, dystopian/tyrannical mask and vax requirements, pedo approved laws, I could go on. None of that is government related ? Or you just approve of all of it? Please stay here. Don't go anywhere else and screw it up with your bizarre beliefs or naivete. They really should enact policies to stop any voting by new residents in these states for 5-10 years to prevent Cali refugees from ruining the states they flee to. As a refugee from this...

Nothing new, it's been happening since the 80's. To quote Chris Herting of Yeti Cycles on their move from SoCal to Colorado; "All I need is one trip back to Cali to realize how shitty it is there and how great it is here.” Tongue Make some money in Ca; then bail somewhere that is cheaper, less crowded, and leaves you alone. Best decision I have ever made.
