Kusa Added a reply to Which bike do you regret buying?

7/20/2016 6:27am

I had it for around 2 years. Bought it with CC Coil, it worked pretty well under high speed, but I agree the geo was maybe not the best, but also not the worst. It was a mini-dh-tank for sure. On other hand, this year I sold it and built a new Banshee Rune 2016. What a difference! Slack, aggressive...

Appalache Real (10 years ago)

I was so happy I will have a bike from dude who designed Balfa BB7. Oh boy, the quality was so bad.... once I killed around 10 shock linkages (these black plates) in a month, I knew this is the worst purchase ever. It was so badly manufactured, not only wrong materials, but it...

Very old school free ride. For crying out loud we should start a fund raiser to send this guy to NorthStar or Whistler. He has the guts to go big, but he needs to be riding at a proper place.

You gain nothing. They know the lines they want to pick. They know the speed. If its rainy, well its rainy. The race is pretty short, its not race laps, so any call during that race run would be a distraction.

Actually I don't think that Leogang hill is that steep. However the biggest problem is probably that they are not allowed to build any new tracks in the forests or in the techy parts you can see from gondola. In Austria, especially in these places, a lot of land is owned by farmers + protected. Look at where the bikepark...

I have a 2015 Ford Kuga 4x4 (in US known as a Ford Escape). Bike rack is german Uebler (http://www.uebler.com/portfolio-item/f22-f32-f32xl-f42/) - it takes up to three bikes and you can pack it into a bag and place it inside of car which is pretty handy.

Gwins split n1 is very high... maybe some issues in the rock garden so there is a huge room (up to 3s) to get better on a race day?

Im slightly concerned that "limited edition bikes" means there will be no support in the feature as it seems like a one time project (we will make great bikes, we will sell them and we will shut down company knowing we delivered). Or what are actual plans for the future? Keep company / numbers small?

... I was talking about Rock Shox that has this weird white outline which is not their standard branding (see the sleeve). It does not look good and its even harder to read it so it does not solve the problem of low contrast. And slow down

When i see a white outline applied on a logo because of crap contrast between it and area underneath, i want to cry... There has to be better and simpler solution, not this kind of graphic disaster.

Interesting read (Pinkbike): "It was mentioned that another company offered more money to sign the team, but in the end the decision was made to go with Specialized. What was the reasoning behind this choice? Laurent: It was a totally different type of project. We were supposed to be included in the whole project, but everything would have been...
