11/25/2024 10:16am I ride 95% of my time in the area where they were developed and tested. The riding at Moose Mtn and Prairie View(Husky), two opposing hill sides, is no joke. Its steep, with concrete hard clay with loose on top and has some big moves all over the place, and the guys riding them the last two years testing them take advantage off all of all of it. From my understanding, the pedals have held up very well and everyone who's ridden them have been hooked. Also, come ride here

11/25/2024 10:15am regarding the durability of the outlier pendulum or void pedal, Andrew Major has a set of each and has a good track record when he was at NSMB and Bike Mag (only writes at his own blog for now https://meatengines.com/ ) for long term review and teardown so if long term issue should arise we will most likely hear about it. And yes those pedals have 2 6902 bearing per pedals and a chunky looking steel axle that needs to be properly torqued to 30nm for correct preload on those bearings. So not a pedal for the frequent parking lot...

11/25/2024 10:13am The best thing about those pedals for me would be how they should eliminate the need to replace bent and snapped pins after almost every ride (I suck and lots of rocks around here). I can't buy canadian made though because there is always a risk some of my money will end up supporting canadian hockey.

11/24/2024 7:43pm Some our local rippers / engineers came up with a very unique "axle-less" pedal. Machined here in Calgary, Alberta and testing in the rocky mountains. They use a big ol 6902 bearing for spinny duties. The pendulum (drop pedal) is super interesting. Void pedals (traditional flat) Pendulum pedals (12mm drop) "Our platform sits 12mm below the center of the axle. Most pedals place the platform 5mm or more above the center of the axle. This effectively lowers the rider's center of mass 17mm or more offering a significant stability, and control. During sudden decelerations, the pedal acts as a pendulum...

11/24/2024 7:42pm I'm waiting for some actual tech rumors. Maybe a specific chat on product copying/sourcing/geo-cultural-politics

11/22/2024 9:36am Magnet works by magnetic moment (which origins from elemental quantity called spin) of unpaired electrons in material being aligned which produces a magnetic field. Roughly speaking ofc.

11/22/2024 9:36am Ok Jeff, here's two important questions for you: Do Rise Mtb's rubberized fingers penetrate deep? The magnet, how does it work?

11/18/2024 4:20pm It is interesting the folks who have criticized what Cam is doing. Then adore what Neko is doing. I think what they are both doing is super cool and I am for it. Each are designing bikes they want to ride and want to offer that to others. Both have more hours on bikes and testing than any of us could dream to have. There is something to that. Cam has successfully run Sensus for quite a long time. I'd say that alone gives consumer confidence in customer relations. The pricing on the frames is pretty good considering what other...

11/17/2024 7:27pm You get a tube with a longer valve, 44mm might be the shortest you can go. You can just poke it through the cushcore and you're good to go. I've done this a few times for trailside repairs when I can't plug a slashed casing and don't want to wear a slimey insert around my shoulders.

11/15/2024 10:51am No riding for me this weekend, my new spokes didn't come in so I can't lace up a set of fresh cranks.

11/14/2024 11:40am I have a project brewing for next summer that's a mini mullet park bike and honestly I've been surprised at the fact I can have matching modern Conti tires and matching 27.5/26" rims at this point that can handle bike park riding. Basically, I haven't had to go down any rabbit holes to find good stuff that can handle me, a 200lb, poor line choice hack riding in a bike park and even working in shops, I'm blown away by that considering it was like pulling teeth the last 5-6 years.
