Still looking for a bike with 69% progression and 420mm stays.

And on rotors installed wrong way around.

Tech Rumors and Innovation For rumors of tech. No one cares what chain stays you prefer take it somewhere else.

Came here to see some new tech news but all i got was a bunch of opinons about chainstay length no one really cares about.

Towers are not tall enough. Said to be a new 32”. Going to be called MegaSkyScraper. Remember me as I just leaked the companies biggest news. Theyre coming for me.

Turner back in the FS game?!

As somebody who's tested this variable back to back on the same chassis (not two totally different forks), the juice wasn't worth the squeeze. Maybe we need to do a fork stiffness deep dive like the excellent frame compliance analysis Burney did. But in short, forks also have roll and wag. Everyone usually thinks of only wag and they test it with the wheel between the legs, but I'd argue this is only a valid indicator of stiffness during full braking on dry pavement. In this situation, the hex axle can offer a small benefit in reducing wag, but in...

It's pseudo technical babble and not a tech rumor.

There are a few people who I eagerly await pre-season race footage of, top of the list is Loic and based on his recent story I'd say we aren't disappointed. New/Raw brake calipers, possibly uncovered rear shock finally, new chainstay, new/kinked seat tube? There's too much and yes I am hoping someone posts the screenshots for me.

Looks like we're deviating from Tech Rumours again.... 🤡

+1 on the horse issue. They’re literally the single most destructive/disruptive user group I can think of (post holing and eroding everything they touch, shitting everywhere, easily scared, etc.) but they get minimal flack as far as I know because the user group is mainly rich old heads that have more influence over public land use in most places. I also think a lot of these issues would be alleviated if local govt/land managers would allow/invest in more mtb specific trails and infrastructure. You look at areas like Bentonville Arkansas, Knoxville, TN and lots of other southern/southeastern cities where mtb...

27.5+ was on a DT swiss, 35mm. I bought 3 identical nukeproof horizon rims 30.5mm during the chain reaction closing sale for all the other tests, apart from 29x2.8 which I ran on my crankbrothers rim which was the widest I had at 31.3mm. In the data MM looks like the slowest rolling, but it's hard to pick out of Assegai Vs Kryptotal: sector analysis probably agrees with your finding. It's hard to say as they are both compared via a proxy tyre rather than direct back to back, so your findings are probably clearer for straight up rolling resistance.

The "innovation" here is that they cut out the sketchy fly by night middle man and allow users to make their bikes illegal for trail use in many markets off the shop floor. At least in British Columbia*, the very fact users can (maybe, if the feature is allowed in Canada; and lets be real dealers can probably unlock it in software) adjust the top speed means that the new Levo is a Motor Vehicle under the Motor Vehicle Act and ceases to meet the definition of a Motor Assisted Cycle - so it isn't legal to use on most...

in an ironic twist of fate my one up now has Active Ride

This is a pretty neat website, thanks for making this! One thought, would it be possible to weight or further segment bicycle brands into 'strictly cycling' and 'somewhat cycling', e.g. Giant is really only a bike company whereas Thule makes other, non-bike related products? We are also at the 5 year 'anniversary' of global shutdowns, so some of those projections are going to start looking weird as we go through the initial market shock into boom (for outdoor sports, anyways). As for price scraping - you could take some of the brand's biggest products (e.g. Stumpjumper/Trance in a mid-tier build...
