3/27/2025 2:43pm I had to buy a set and I don't even need them. I'm a sucker for limited edition.

don’t know what they thought with that color. I’m usually in the boat that colors are either nice, eh or boring, but not actively ugly. The brown and pink combo unfortunately is the latter in my opinion. At least bicyclepubes is probably gonna be happy about the poopcycle.

3/27/2025 10:35am They read as Code power with ligher weight? Even a little less power than Codes seems enough for most trail riding. https://www.sram.com/en/sram/mountain/series/motive

Here are some better pictures from the latest promo video that were posted in the Ari group. The riders in the video confirmed its a Timp Peak, so it must be the new Timp. Looks like a Bosch CX or SRAM Powertrain - Hopefully the former! Thankfully, the downtube girth indicates at least an 800 WH battery. Down with the 600 WH trend!

3/24/2025 2:31pm I think it would benefit any manufacturer AND the customer if the frame, battery and motor was compatible between specs. For example: pick a frame, 150mm or 180mm travel. Pick a battery size, 400, 600 or 800. Pick a motor, CX or SX. And out spits your bike. Like Build-a-Bear but for grown ups (?) Build-a-BIke... I have the concept...

3/17/2025 7:00am I see Maguras being the primary brake for most guys ridiing trials. I'm definitely generalizing but for a group that needs powerful brakes they seem to gravitate to them. Or is it more technique? I know little about trials riding skills.

3/14/2025 7:31pm Nice eye. I looked right at it and missed it... the hot patch graphics are different than the current radials.

3/12/2025 2:21pm I still kick myself for not getting more than 1 set. I watch them on ebay selling for 1k.

OnlyMotion has launched a Kickstarter campaign for their electronic conversion kit for mechanical droppers. More info - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/onlymotion/worlds-first-electronic… I know this concept was discussed a few pages ago. I appreciate the effort to create something that doesn't exist. I also don't mind the extra cable at my cockpit for a mechanical dropper. I guess if you really want electronic/wireless without having to run the new gen of wireless droppers that look terrible with the battery at the collar, this is for you haha

3/12/2025 6:37am Anyone try MTX's with their Mavens after metallic and organic? How do they compare?

3/11/2025 2:45pm I vaguely recall they made 1000 of the red. FWIW

3/11/2025 10:25am Lever looks used. My guess is a pros take off? Red limited edition was less $ for more, I'm hoping SRAM sells the same too.

i hope they do the launch package deal like they did with the Mavens too, that was a killer deal.

3/8/2025 7:35am The info I've received and read from tuners is that one of their goals is to allow faster rebound versus what OE tunes allow for this very reason.

3/5/2025 3:37pm Now that the picture is clear, seeing the setup key and knurled ring makes me think, no B screw?
