I know it's taboo, but I buy, use, and enjoy a lot of parts from AliExpress. If you know what you're doing you can get some incredible quality stuff at dollar discount prices. I imagine these tariffs will put a swift end to all that.

Are we going to read anything into the photos from the Hardline start list (which will take place in 2025)? There's no consistency so the riders submitted the photos themselves rather than being stock images. Some have chosen to show their sponsored kit, others have almost deliberately hidden it or worn something ambiguous. e.g. Fearon, Holl, Edwards and Vermette have all gone for the plain black tee/hoody. Goldstone and Holl have deliberately shown their hat and eyewear spnsors but have cropped their jerseys out. Others have gone the other way and really tried to get their brands in the frame...

10/14/2024 10:41pm Since we are talking creaking CSUs, is there a particular reason why crown cannot be made as one piece? (I believe there were some full carbon csu-s in xc)

10/13/2024 11:14pm What about not scoring each rider after his run but waiting to the end and then rewatch the runs and adjust the scores: For example each category has 20 points, a rider finishes his run, and judge gives him preliminary 15 points for technical aspect as he does not know what other riders will do. Then Brendog drops in into...

Here's an idea: have Brendog's team create one single line, have everyone ride that and only then you let the judges "judge"

10/4/2024 3:07am Banshee have already commented on UDH, Keith said he prefers adjustability (replacable/adjustable dropouts are the only adjustability they provide) and UDH would make that impossible. Frame insertion could be indeed better, I can only run 150mm drop on M Titan. But the bike is amazing to ride despite being a couple of years old! I really like how Pivot used...

10/3/2024 12:14am Exactly this, we are all here for latest and most capable bikes designed mostly for descending but haibike targets specifically German market and if anyone ever ventures into the area of northern Alps with their vast network of long range bicycle routes this type of bikes will represent some 90% of what you will see mostly ridden by groups of...

Rumor is the new gambler doesn't ride as expected. Apparently they didn't make an alloy test mule. So the bike for sale is delayed so Scott can tweak it a bit.

9/16/2024 9:46am Loudenvielle to Lenzerheide to Pal Arsinal: you need to swap two for this list to make sense, even they are not stupid enough to go from Pyrenees to Switzerland and then back just for giggles.
