On the Tomac subject, does anyone remember there were rumor and even pictures I think, of Tomac and a few engineers with one of the Honda Bikes at a bike park in Colorado doing testing. This was a year or two after Honda folded, apparently Honda loaned the bike to Tomac with the idea that Tomac might bring the bike...

Funny timing. I just bought a pair of 2FO cliplite in my size on PB for 55 bucks, they are brand new. They are my 3rd pair, I actually bought my 2nd pair before while my 1st were still going strong. My 2nd pair bit the dust a couple months ago and I’ve been searching for my size on eBay...

I'm hoping so. The SJ15 is on my short list of new bikes; I've been holding out to see what Yeti releases.

I had no idea that’s how people were racing SS. As a SS aficionado, I’ve seen a few workarounds with the slope style tensioners, one of them advertises the biggest compatible rear cog is 17t but plenty of guys have squeezed in an 18t and made it work. Other guys have used the Wolf Tooth goat link along with the...

7/20/2026 3:38pm
In my personal experience, I think it shifts better under load than it does in the stand. When I built up my first Transmission bike a couple years ago (XO), i shifted through the gears in the stand and was like “is this it?” It seemed slow and a bit clunky. But, when I took it out on my first...
