It all comes down to policy. Removing the gold standard isn’t an issue in itself. An independent fed is a good thing. Simply there has been a total failure in leadership since the 90s on both sides of the aisle. When Clinton left office we were on a path to completely eliminate our national debt by the late 2000s. Since then we have continually increased our costs (some good, some bad) while cutting taxes across the board. But the shift (or realistically return) of the government supporting business over normal folk started much earlier. When Eisenhower was president taxes on...

wrong motor if that is your use case

Hi everyone, I wanted to ask for some info and share my experience with Maxxis/Schwalbe radials… (Spoiler: not the ending I expected!) I ride a 360° e-bike for trail/AM and some bikepark.

from whoop UCI - the Enduro Open "returning to enduro roots" ENDURO OPEN: AT THE HEART OF MOUNTAIN BIKING ADVENTURE Enduro at its heart is about adventure. The format ’s origins pitted competitors against remote, raw terrain across multiple days of competition, and its self-sufficient nature meant skills with a multitool were as crucial to winning as technical riding abilities. It has also been a testbed for new mountain bike technology, with dropper posts, 1x drivetrains and E-bikes all put through their paces in Enduro before being adopted by the wider industry. In 2025, the UCI Enduro World Cup is...
