6/25/2026 7:46am The "LT" on the frame suggests that the 160 and 140 (MT?) are going to share the same platforms and travel will be a linkage and/or shock stroke change. Looked good in the raw carbon I saw, but really looks tidy painted.

6/25/2026 7:45am While they're saying this is a test, they added the bolt holes for the idler on all production frames. I couldn't figure out what these were for, until today. Makes me think this "concept" is coming sooner than folks are letting on.

6/19/2026 2:07pm That's not a Shimano mount, it's the Stiffshifter from Eightpins. They're only available via pre-order. Mine arrived after 4.5 weeks.

6/18/2026 1:23pm Hey, let's stay on topic here. This is the UCI 32" rule debate thread. Seriously though, that aluminum hydroforming and construction work looks really clean. It's really hard to tell where the carbon models end and the aluminum ones begin in the website photos.

6/17/2026 11:52pm I use to run Assegai's exclusively up front as there seems to be grip regardless of the lean angle, but similar to what others have said, I found that it doesn't have a sharp bite when leaning it over. I'm also afraid of the DHF up front, but the Argotal is my new favorite front tire when it isn't hardpack. I'd like to try the High Roller 3 out, but not too motivated with how long the Super Soft lasts as a front tire!

6/17/2026 11:50pm Yeah I feel like this post is a setup for average dudes to admit they’re afraid of the DHF! I am afraid of the DHF.

6/16/2026 1:56pm Looks like Burgtec have done those custom MX dropouts for Kolb - it would be awesome if something that allows for UDH comes out further down the line

6/16/2026 12:19pm Tinfoil hat alert: the switch to 55mm chainline for sram transmission is laying the groundwork for 13 speed as sram's next MTB drive train innovation.

6/16/2026 12:15pm Entire drivetrain industry scared that they already made the best mechanical components years ago and there is little room for improvement. Sandbagging the weight and material preserves the tier structure.
