Well yeah you dared to share a negative thought about Sram 😅🤷🏽‍♂️ It such a contrary thinkg that all of a sudden a heavy lever is seen as a positive. Lets get rid of power steering and bring back heavy clutches in cars too 😬

So Sram are playing with a lighter pull setup... Even though "everyone" swears blind that the heavy pull is the bESt thINg EvAr. This U-turn is nearly as funny as the "we will never make a mineral oil brake". They would make an incredible political party with plays like this.

I don’t think it’s silly if a rider wants a different character than the frame was designed with. Neko made a video testing different AR configurations and basically said its rider dependent on what they want.

If you are running the fork super stiff you can lower anti-rise since it's not prone to diving. Most WC racers are so that makes sense to me. If you don't run the fork super stiff, weight transfer is accentuated and the bike seesaws when you go on and off the brakes.

Who is that guy and why does he look so disappointed in his bike?

Okay big conspiracy time. The podium fork has been made for a long time. Fox was waiting for the traditional design of their forks to plateau in innovation and sales before “being the first”. It weighs so much on purpose because their next gen of the fork (which is already made and designed) will be bigger news than the second coming of Jesus. Then after that it will be even bigger with slight updates to the damper that work for USD forks even better, and EVEN LESS WEIGHT. But if they released the fork as perfect on day 1, what...

Ah, I see you’re also a man of culture…

Brembo brakes official

Some more shots from the Fox USD at Leogang: And seems like Specialized is running two different brake discs for the Brembos, the Hope-ish looking one with the round holes and another one with a lot bigger cutouts: There was also this raw alloy shim on the rear axle of Finn Iles' Levo which I have no idea about.

that's cool! pressure builds with every position, HA

Is that a tech rumor? Found it pretty sick ( Mighty Argo gondola in Idaho Springs).
