Never wore a hole in a carbon crank - it did happen to me with a XTR aluminium crank, though.

I had some Next carbon cranks develop stress cracks along the length of the arm. Never crashed, just my 100kg heft and pedalling. RF (siverfish in the UK) didn't want to know to begin with, but I kept pressing them. They ended up swapping for some SIXC under warranty in the end. They were nice until I took the end...

Ah but, Pieron doesn't ride for Early Rider and Early Rider doesn't have a bar in the mountains.

Long gone are the days when kids had to deal with the not-so-great bike offerings from big box stores like Walmart. Cycling brands like Commencal now have an extensive lineup of youth bicycle options. From push bikes to full suspension bikes, and even e-bikes, the next generation of shredders and their parents are pretty darn spoiled with first-time bike buying choices. The 20-inch-wheeled Ramones is a first-time kids mountain bike sized for riders 115-135cm tall or 3’9" to 4’5". An alloy frame, mechanical disk brakes, 7-speed drivetrain, and beefy 2.6-inch-wide Vee tires are just some of the highlights. All the...

Looking at getting one of these for my boy, who’s also on the 16” Ramones. Great to hear the rider’s thoughts too. Now waiting for them to come in to stock!

Gloves are awesome, nice to have a non-bulky mid-weight choice. For me they are good from 25-45F or so. The grid fabric is also awesome, more durable and holds less moisture vs merino. I have the Gryphon shirt from 7Mesh, but same fabric. Pricey, but merino doesn't last long mt biking, holds more sweat, and isn't cheap either.

I live within 1.5 hours to Schladming, Leogang, Saalbach and other parks. I had downhill bikes since 2006 (and raced "downhill" back in the 90s on modified XC-bikes). But starting about 5 years ago almost all of my friends got rid of their downhill bikes. I'm 45 years old now - so not the typical downhill rider. But also much younger friends (like 30) sold their downhill bikes. The parks and mountain bike regions wanted to bring more people to their parks and regions - not only the "hard core downhill biker". And they had to build tracks to combine...

Yeah who wants social justice am i right? Overflowing with irony you bunch of absolute snowflakes crying because you got down voted on a mountain bike website Laughing Yes internet activism is annoying and pointless, I'd rather people were out doing actual political work but my god it's better than you right wing cry babies.

The difference between the arc length and the vertical length is marginal, ever for a high pivot bike with a more extreme arc. We’re talking like 210mm vs 213mm
