It doesn’t look like it has enough seatpost insertion to be a bike for pedaling.

Looks like that Transition proto spotted a while back is getting closer to release. New Spire? TR11? Combining Spire and Patrol? One bike to replace all three, similar to the new Rallon??? Modular dropouts, swappable lower shock mount. Although it looks like a tapered headtube, interesting to see them switching from the straight headtubes on the Spire and Patrol.

Yea, there's a hole for one to mount to, but I never got round to actually modelling the pulley wheel. I was just gonna buy a jank components x-sync chainring thingy for it, cause my brother can get me them cheap. I've just designed a simpler version of the concept too, designed to be made from 3dp steel as it's more accessible to me than machined alloy. It's got a yoke to reduce the eye to eye, it either does 225x75 203mm Mx or 205x65 180mm 29"/Mx. I wanted to do the 6-bar, but the machining on the links would...

Next model I work on I'm doing the rear end first and working back to front. It seems like a sensible idea. Watch this space. In a few years you'll see this bad boy on bike of the day!

From the NAEC a couple weeks ago...

I'm waiting for them to release the Flash 38 for my Turbo Levo

Paper products from Germany can only mean one thing, new fork day! This is the Intend Flash 35, it can be run from 160mm to 190mm. Very similar to the Edge; but with a more robust crown, longer legs, and slightly different uppers. After initial riding and then a full tear down and inspection, there will be some parallel testing with a 35mm Boxxer. Both forks will be run at 190mm of travel on a DH bike. The capability of the 170mm inverted forks at Angel Fire was so impressive that a direct comparison of a longer travel version to...

sick paint, well done Trek for once, love to see a good seat, new grips, proper tyres, a proper Raceface Era handlebar instead of that stupid one piece carbon cockpit that kills your hand with stiffness, impressed

Mondraker team continues here in Andorra testing the prototype...

It’s got a different kind of linkage as per the leaked Push picture, with the 2 big bolts holding the flip chip vs current 3 No badge yet, no clue of anything Doesn’t look like it’s got the stupid cable tourism but I can’t see any port for the dropper/moto brake routing like before? I hope they didn’t do anything completely stupid like Santa Cruz and Specialized by cutting out cable ports I hope it’s more of a proto frame missing that stuff in a non final mold And they’ve got internal frame storage for sure

Only on vital can I start my day with a coffee and a debate about glute activation. Back to 32 inch wheels and growths on Zeb lowers please.

I'm almost certain that the new Maxxis tire will be the Minnion DHF2... I got a Test Pilote here in Andorra and it says Minnion DHF 2

... maybe to be released soon? Picture is the same as the original DHF currently. Rolling speed/traction/cornering graph thing is updated compared to the DHF.

New game - one hub, two caps-s. Hadley XC front hub with standard 15mm endcaps vs properly executed torque caps. Will I be able to tell a difference in torque stiffness of my Intend fork?

Nothing obvious when you enhance the new EXT fork
