It’s interesting how quickly the market shifted. A few years ago it felt like there was too much inventory everywhere, and now finding specific models and sizes can be surprisingly difficult.

I've been seriously considering a Santa Cruz v10 and am able to justify it in my budget but just because you can do something doesn't necessarily mean you should so I need some insight from other form users. Some helpful context. I do about 17 bike park days a year, mostly Trestle and Keystone if you're familiar but do often travel to other bike parks within driving distance such as Snowmass and Big Sky. My current and only bike is a v2 Megatower which does double duty trail riding and bike park. I understand that a DH bike makes no...

Im on the hunt for some new elbow pads, Something that fits really well and wont be annoying to wear on a long day of riding. I am kind of a lanky skinny dude so im hoping some fellow stick people can come through with some solid recommendations. Im particularly interested to hear if anyone has tried Akta's elbow pads, as i own their knee pads and love them. Probably gonna lean towards getting something level 1 protection rated, as those seem to be a lot more comfortable and ergonomic. Any help is much appreciated, thanks!

I just got back from a week long trip to whistler where due to some family issues (sick pet) and friends cancelling last minute, I was mostly riding alone. I had a buddy join me for a few hours on 2 days, but other than that, I was left alone with my mediocre riding skills and my thoughts. With this much time alone, you tend to develop an inner monologue of Hot Takes... and since I had no one to share these with, I am coming here to plop them down. I also don't use social media because of a...

I’d give that 0%. They would have to throw a lot of cash that they don’t have to lure him to a team with no established infrastructure and would be a wildcard team.
