@mcfadden999 and anyone else responding to him, guess what? there's an entire forum where you can start a new topic dedicated to one specific thing and you can develop that topic into the minutia it deserves. no more cascade review crap in this thread. hooray for babysitting grown adults in 2024!

YAY, even more SX comparisons! Just what we all come here for, in an MTB forum of all places....

That spline has a lineage which I feel makes it the defacto standard. I think it goes back at least as far as the Magic Motorcycles cranks, so it became the CODA standard; FSA made Cannondale's cranks, and it was adopted Sram, Raceface and others, including me (https://www.digitbikes.com/concentric-bb). Here are the bones of my model:

Sorry ? A lack of results ? Dudes a top 20 rider if not top 10. I can name 30 riders who don’t deserve a ride over cole

i know nothing about it, but it looks rad!

so frames are not rocket science because it is only about geometry- is that about right? What about kinematics or how components work with the frame such as suspension.

Bring it on, brakes can already fail in a dozen different ways so how is this any different? Electronics has come a long way and the extra sensors you can build in to the system could easily provide a bunch of useful features like pad wear monitoring, temperature warnings and rider coaching (like brakeace) Feedback can be built in to the system, and even tuneable so if you like a "shimano" feel more than a "sram" feel you could dial in a different force map without needing to shell out for completely new brakes. Crash damage is probably improved -...

The only way I can see this being remotely safe, is that the default position is closed - being that if you run out of battery, the servo will return to the position in which the brakes engage. If you have them default open and something goes wrong on a descent and you try to brake...it's not going to end well. If they shut gradually, the worst that can happen is you have to push it out.

Forbidden ?

So now he's just Mike Leavy?

He's good. He's already posted on Jackson's goodbye post. Look forward.

Did you just compare billion-dollar fighter jets to passenger cars?

There's a 17 pages thread on MTBR regarding people having issues with T-Type drivetrains, might worth a read. https://www.mtbr.com/threads/got-sram-transmission-got-problems-post-he…

The naming convention was determined decades ago. Motorized pedal bikes were called mopeds, full human powered bicycles have and always will be bicycles.

I swapped elevensix for sveight in the URL... https://www.pushindustries.com/products/sveight

Phoenix- south mountain is a guaranteed warm sunny spot. Probably enough trail there for a few days.

amen!! it's gettin really annoying...

half of your comments are "hehe i know something you guys don't but I'm not telling you" we get it, you're an "industry insider", but could you either drop the pre-schooler attitude or just not say anything unless you can/want to contribute?
