Eagle derailleur was feeling left out - so I made a thing - replaces the washer on a standard UDH dropout with a "Brace" that links the rear derailleur for strength and stiffness.

I am looking for any information about this Cannondale Moto carbon frame that I have. It is a 2010 that has Kawasaki and Monster graphics on it. I understand that in 2009 or 2010 Cannondale in partnership with Kawasaki auctioned a complete bike on ebay for charity. I am curious how many of these frames were produced. This frame doesn't appear to have ever been built into a complete bike. thanks for any help

Looks like a 38mm Marzocchi is going to be released during Rampage.

9/25/2023 10:34am I can confirm this. I upgraded my levers from R's to Ultimate Stealths a few months ago and reused the R calipers. It's a significant improvement. Internally the Ultimate Stealths are the same as RSC's, Reach, Swing-link and Contact adjustments. Only substantial difference is the Stealths have a carbon lever and the lever body is closer to the bars, which...

Not necessarily a rumor (or even an innovation for that matter), but Dave Weagle's DW-Link patent is about to expire in the US.

Unfortunately, many in MTBing, are often confused on the roles played by first the spring rate and how it's used primarily to manage chassis attitude, balance and support and is mostly specific to rider/ bike combined weight & weight distribution; vs. second the role of damping which is utilized to control the rate of the movement of the suspension and is much more specific to the rider and their aggression level and terrain. To put it in the most basic terms, a linear rear suspension with a coil would either a) bottom excessively, or b) have to utilize too much...

8/11/2023 10:53am As long as there's a Marketing and R&D Dept they will always be working towards something. I also think it's human nature to look for greener grass, so we'll constantly be on the ascent to the peak. It's funny I was out of the game for about the last ten years, what I left and what I came back to...

7/28/2023 2:33pm I'm getting it from reading people's inexperienced opinions and you're also making my point. It DOES NOT have to be electronic to shift "well" and if you read those who have experience it's not "perfect shifting every time." That would be the SRAM marketing dept. Durability on the other hand does seem to set it apart which is certainly not...
