Hey, I’m Ryan Burney. I’ve been engineering bikes for 8 years, and this is a breakdown of what I’ve learned starting my own small business, Rim Saver. In this post, I’m sharing everything I’ve learned while launching a product business in the bike world. What worked, what didn’t, and what I’d do differently. If it helps even one person take the leap or avoid a mistake, it’ll be worth it. Background I made the first version of Rim Saver in college. The idea started out as a beadlock concept, then evolved into a beadlock with rim protection, then just rim...

6/22/2025 6:06am Damn, yet another automative company getting into bicycles ! Curious as to why, surely MTB is a pretty niche and not very profitable market compared to cars

Haven't seen this posted anywhere. From a Japanese site. Hello, this is Kayaba Corporation. Introducing the new suspension we've developed for e-Bikes.

This product is based on motorcycle suspension technology and has a design optimized for e-Bikes. By precisely controlling friction and damping force, the tires grip the trail firmly and provide high traction performance in all conditions. It uses low-friction oil seals and bushings made in Japan, and the...

Absolutely horrific. Scott will love it. Can't wait for a new steerer standard to solve the issue of the taper getting in the way of the stem.

I'm just spitballing here, but one of the limiting dimensions that does not help gain wheel size or suspension travel is headtube length. What if for 32" bikes, the head tube was split, in which case it only needs to house a bearing on each end, and the stem attached in between? Scott does so much integration hell already that I'd bet they'd be into this.

If you add a dab of grease to the bearing the bike will leave the shop silent only to shake loose at the optimal time for max annoyance. Don’t ask me how I know.

I worked at REI and got a screaming deal on a Ghost Rocket hardtail that had a busted pinion gearbox. It was the week before Covid shutdowns and I spent the next 4 months dealing with Gates to get the seals replaced. Finally got the gearbox back, reinstalled it on the bike and went for my first ever ride on the bike. 5 miles down the trail my pedal unthreaded from the axle. I couldn’t understand how it happened but finger tightened it and limped back to my car. Turns out the pinion gearbox will let you put the cranks...

Fair question. Money is definitely one reason why we haven't bought an Intend to test ( or 2772 reasons). In a perfect world, I would love for Vital to buy all of our test products at MSRP, like Consumer Reports used to do (Consumer Reports is now a dead husk of their former self). But buying all our test products would require either a) more revenue from advertisers, or b) moving to a subscription model and charging viewers, which other bike sites have done (Velo, Radavist, etc), or c) more $$$ from advertisers AND charging viewers for a subscription, which...

2009, first season in Whistler I ordered a new giant glory to replace a broken frame in the lead up to Crankworx, 2 hours of it being in my hands I managed to destroy it… So when you’re young, stupid, in a hurry, and never used certain bike tools before always double check the removal tool in against the headset cup, and always check that one of the prongs didn’t slip through the steerer tube hole into the downtube then proceed to beat the shit out of it because your friend told you it’s not moving hit it harder, until...
