oh shit you might be onto something here, dropper stem. drop it for climbing, raise it for descending AXS version paired with your seatpost for single-button actuation Anomaly handlebar roll adjuster built in tires that have retractable center knobs controlled by AI for rolling resistance HOW HAS THIS NOT BEEN PATENTED WHAT IS THE LIMIT

Love that it is combined with the stem flipped negative and a nearly flat riser bar... Step away from the allen wrenches sir!

True fact: People who ride those type of bikes are 72% more likely to hate 32" wheels.

Career ending? Care to elaborate?

Kiefer's chain didn't snap, he smashed his chainring on the last jump in the woods.

I am going to come out and say this, Linear is good. Depending on the size you ride the geo is pretty good as well. Some people will like the modular-ness?? of the bike. I started on the std levo went to the cc link and now on the evo link. The evo link is def the best for me. I sold the cc-link it felt like it used the travel too easily and was hitting false bottom because of how progressive it was. Also it made running a lot of compression for support feel worse. Just my 2 ¢...

Rumor is 5010 is out of the line up as well as the mega

You'll see some new things from specy and transition

A few bits I've heard from my LBS, and dealer reps at a recent demo event: New transition lineup coming next year. Will involve flip chips for wheelsize to consolidate frame SKUs. Smuggler going. Patrol/spire replacement coming first. Ibis IB7 next year, along with an avinox ebike. Specialized enduro replacement finally happening before bike park season next year, alongside a new levo. New Forbidden's as in the above posts. No megatower replacement. Nukeproof potentially bringing out some new pedal bikes, definitely an avinox gigawatt.

I'd bet $3.50 forbidden moves to the ebike suspension layout for druid/dread going forward. What update are you expecting from transition? I'd be a bit surprised to see they move away from the horst link. That said i have zero insider knowledge.

I thought it was the fuks. He had zero fuks after that

Must have been the brakes
