Not a fresh info as i met him a couple months ago: no official team step forward, he will probably race as a privateer with some support from various teams or a local one.

My name is Luis Arraiz, I am a frame design engineer and specialize in bicycle vehicle dynamics, kinematics and geometry design. I was the founder of K9 Industries Ltd in 2005 in the UK. I worked at CSG (now Pon) from 2015-2023 where I was responsible for the geometry, kinematics and packaging for all the full suspension bikes both analogue and e-bikes for both Cannondale and GT bikes and also several GT hardtails. I introduced the concept of size specific geometry and kinematics for Cannondale dubbed “Proportional Response”. I am now back to the UK, where I am a senior...

I don't really like how they perform and reliability is not up to the task in my experience. Regarding a progressive linkage, i would like to try it but in a second iteration similar to stanton (they use both a linkage and a long shock 230x65 for 140mm of travel) with this frame i would like to learn the basics.

Thank you all for the answers ! I was also perplexes when the builder proposed the concentric option...so i asked here. Regarding the shock longer than usual: i'm kind of heavy 96kg and i do drops that many will describe as dumb and useless, currently on a raaw jibb with a progressive 550-670 or 700lbs coil, i was hoping that...

Hi guys, i'm about to build a frame with the help of a local builder. It's going to be a single pivot and i was wondering about the pivot placement: above the BB or concentric to the BB ? 140mm of travel with 230x65 shock. What would you suggest and why ?

Union team will be on trek frames, all sram/rockshox transmission suspensions and brakes, enve wheels and still on deity. I've seen one of them on the hills.

Seen at the bike festival in riva del garda: nicolai nucleon 16 with classic derailleur, sadly with hadset cable routing...but given the huge customization possibilities of nicolai may an external or internal cable routing will be possible

I have a ribbon air, the performance is awesome, i really love it. Maintenance is easy too. The only thing i can't get along with, is the flexibility in the steep tracks where you need to pivot on your front wheel to corner (may it's my fault...i'm heavy...92kg naked). For everything else the fork is perfect, works really well and...
