I don't even like playing the "Who has a 148 rear wheel I can borrow [with my preferred freehub interface and/or a cassette of similar size and # of speeds that's compatible with my chain]?" game. I don't think I would like the 157mm SuperBoost version of that game.

I have fought off having superboost rear wheels in my fleet for many years. My wife fell in love with a pivot recently and got herself one. It has ruined the zen status of all wheels/hubs fitting all bikes in my garage. It is as bad, if not worse then the dystopian axle future I imagined that had me avoiding pivot bikes for nearly a decade now. superboost sucks... after having a superboost bike forced on me, I can safely say, I will never own a superboost bike.

Respectfully, it's more accurate to say " Pro tip, your super enduro will absolutely be acceptable for DH trails." No matter how good long travel single crown bikes are these days, there's still no replacement for displacement.

Showing up to a federal land agency meeting with heat maps printed discussing decommission was an eye opening experience. It’s a great tool for them to identify and remove any trail that was a significant amount of time to build. Your 2 minutes of enjoyment likely was 100 hours of work or more. And it just put a bullseye on the trail when you published your ride. You can remove sharing heat maps on your settings, not make rides public and hide your maps. Or just not strava those trails.

The holes let oil up to the upper bushing… those are already on current 38 boxxer. Someone patented the channel around the bushings. I’m sure fatigue is been calculated and tested. RS didn’t mess around with fatigue. Also curious how they’re making the dimples.

An extra 1-2#'s of CF reinforcement on a DH bike just makes sense.

It is my opinion that 3% "added" friction because fork misalignment is probably negligible because 3% is. Let's be honest, in a dynamic ride situation, the various level of twisting and buckling forces applied to a fork is going to misalign it. You referenced fox's floating air piston and the whole goal of reducing friction in an air spring; stating how somehow that goal is diminished due to fork misalignment, and I strongly disagree. As I mentioned before (somewhere on vital), air springs are particularly vulnerable to added friction issue due to the issue of needing to seal air AND...

That was actually a really good article - well done Jessie for taking that step, I wish there was more of this from media sites I would roughly guess the friction from bushings and the air spring are 50/50 - there is potentially a ton of bushing friction under high loads/bending, and the air spring has a big impact on smaller, high frequency movements. I believe there is a lot more bending on the air shaft than you would think - my theory on buttercups has always been that they do more for allowing the air shaft to stay properly...

Personally a bigger fan of just bracketing my settings on a repeatable section of trail. It gives me a better idea of what all the adjusters do and I can apply that knowledge to later rides when I want to change something.
