This may be a good indicator of when as they're all cagey about it.

3/15/2025 2:59pm The real question is “why do bike companies spec such short dropper posts on their bikes?” Give the people all the drop that’s possible. Any bike that comes with less than 210mm drop needs to be upgraded. Obviously, if it’s a light weight XC bike, it may not be necessary. But once a bike hits the trail or all mountain...

2/24/2025 10:05am Sounds like a very German name. I’d just wanna be called Prof. “Prof, your fancy cotton candy spiced late, with skim milk and our signature nasty burnt coffee bean flavor is ready for you!”

1/9/2025 6:06am Regarding salaries, I don’t think any rider, no matter how good their last season was - is making more than last year. Unless they may have moved up from a small team to a big factory set up like Kolb did. I dunno about his salary. But I know due a fact, that - in enduro at least - top...

1/9/2025 5:50am Regarding stiffness - can’t remember who said it, it was one of the USD manufacturers if I remember correctly - the hub-fork-axle interface is one of the most crucial parts regarding stiffness. So if they can figure that part out - ideally without a proprietary hub - then they could be on to something good. I’d love a USD fork...

1/3/2025 5:55am Got a little more on that rumor than this? I’m curious. this may be on odd approach/take but I’ve seen and heard others say the same thing: if you live in very dusty places, the dust wipers have a better life on a USD fork since there’s not as much dust in the hub area than at the top of...

12/30/2024 9:57am Given the state of the industry and enduro, most enduro racers that are without a ride for next season, probably won’t get one with the UCI being so vague about enduro and its plans for it…

12/8/2024 3:05pm I talked to a factory rider of a well known d2c brand. He also had ridden an Amflow bike with the dji motor and said he’s never ridden a bike with this good of a motor. He rode stuff up that he considered unridable on any other e-bike including his own sponsors e-bike. And the current e-bike of his sponsor...

Didn’t the Shimano guy on the pinkbike podcast say that one of their goals is to always have a well working mechanical XT drivetrain? All this wireless only and 13 speed does not really sound typical for them

11/13/2024 4:59pm Intend responded to someone on IG and said that they will release more on that shock soon.
Having six kids, I can justify a good bike. It’ll get used lots. But it’s also something to buy these kind of bikes as a dad with a large family… but then again, they are a good investment when you got lots of kids and you can actually fix these bikes…

Can confirm the bottle is low and best reached for during mellow moments of climbs. It's not ridiculously out of reach, but it's further than some bikes.

The thing I've learned from all this broken derailleur talk is that I don't ride hard enough.

There was a strong rumor going around recently that the Enduro was going to get an UDH update soon, like real soon. But crickets so far. I dont think you'll be seeing a new Enduro design till mid next year.
