7/10/2024 1:51am Not a rumor but confirmed by the man himself, Troy Lee mentioned he's working on the D5 on his appearance for the Gypsy Tales podcast. In other helmet rumors, did anyone hear why everyone affiliated with Alpinestars is on the SM10? Need a helmet after my brand new Dissident II carbon shell was cracked from a less than hip height fall from my bar, I'd hoped it was one of the safer offerings out there but no longer convinced.

7/10/2024 1:49am Local dealer said new Status is next, 2 models a 140mm and a 170mm. The 170mm is going to be dual crown compatible. Apparently, will be out in about 3 weeks. Pretty sure both will allow mechanical shifting too 😉

7/10/2024 1:48am Iceman also said he has some enduro SS on review. I was also skeptical considering there's been rumor for a while, happy to see it's happening

7/7/2024 3:37am Kiska handles KTM's industrial design, branding, marketing, and communication. They're quite in bed with them. Kiska also handle a lot of the same roles for Husqvarna too. They seem to be doing more and more in the bike and e-bike world.

7/6/2024 6:35am Such an impressive run from Amaury! Just when you thought the dirt was getting better Luca Shaw goes and slides 60ft, hopefully he didn’t catch anything sharp. Pinkerton’s back looked like it folded pretty hard on the netting so hopefully he’s all good.

7/4/2024 5:57pm I guess you wouldn't make too much noise about it, feels a bit like announcing you upgraded your dial up internet to fibre in 2024. Did they have a reason for the old air can design persisting so long?

7/4/2024 5:56pm So they had a gravel trap on the test track for this very reason, I was able to test on paved road and gravel, worked equally well in both situations. I had to do a few runs on the gravel as I didn't trust the ABS, once I had the confidence to brake really hard it was faultless. Obviously flat ground is not representative of real world trail use, so would be keen to use it in anger on some proper trails.

7/4/2024 5:49pm Without defining the nature of an impact, force measurements would be required to know which transmits the most force to the rider. Now if you say the impact in question is a series of roots that are 50 mm tall, then it is accurate to say that the closer the deflection is to 50 mm then the lower the amount of force transmitted to the rider. Assuming it’s in phase with the roots of course. The graph in question here seems to show an extremely small root or something similar. An example of where you need to know force is...

7/4/2024 5:48pm They printed 60 twice on the Y-axis (LOL) so I think that is supposed to be 50mm or 34% which is slightly more realistic. Still, that is a spectacularly pointless plot. It shows the wheel uses more travel at much higher peak speeds but doesn't say anything about the load at the wheel or force transmitted to the frame.

7/4/2024 5:48pm I was going to say reference spoke tape or maybe colors based on what spoke gauge/tension if there’s multiple wheel sets.

7/4/2024 5:48pm One of the mechanics was rebuilding his wheel using the park tool video where they tell you to put the tape on as a "reference spoke".
