6/2/2026 12:50am The amount of brand new Gen 2 optics still available online is wild given they stopped making them a good 2 years ago. I wonder if that made the 3 a harder sale, can't say I've seen many either

5/24/2026 8:22am I play a never ending game of parts musical chairs, but frame wise in my adult life I've had: 2017-2020: Canyon Grand Canyon AL, very XC geometry and my first 29", felt like I was absolutely flying everywhere 2019 - 2020: some Mongoose dirt jumper. Absolute boat anchor of a frame, and so was the rest of the build...

Iâve been mountain biking since I was a teenager in the 90s and the marketing material has never been as sober as it is right now and the products have literally never been higher quality. Thirty years ago youâd drop a huge stack of cash on 1.9â tires made out of QC-rejected pencil erasers and hay, theyâd be hard as coffin nails and look leprous after three rides (several flats per ride), and the marketing material would be all like âGod himself couldnât make rubber stickier; this rubber is so sticky itâs gray; you can ride on the damn wallâ...

The thing thatâs different with e-bikes is that their range will get slightly better every few years or so for the foreseeable future. Itâs hard for a normal human to understand why the new Nomads kinematic is âbetterâ but a longer range battery is easy. More ride time. Bike marketing and product decisions are so confusing and nerdy to normal people that this is a welcome change in my view. Itâs easy to understand and directly affects the ride in a big way.

How much of the appearance that âe-bikes are the only thing sellingâ is an artificial bubble based on the fact that they are a market that essentially did not exist 6-7 years ago? Thus, we are still working through the initial phase of: everyone who is interested buying into the market (often for the first time) looks like greater demand than what will stabilize over the ensuing 5-10 years. I imagine over time as there are less ânewâ buyers and the demand becomes only individuals turning over from an older model to a newer one that e-bike sales actually drop...
