Couldn't agree more! And all I'll add is wait until you see the bike that's dropping tomorrow. You might end up owning 2 e-bikes in the near future.

Figured I'd share my new Levo SL since I got it built up in time for my up coming trips. Longggg back story: I rode an alloy Stumpjumper 15 the past year that weighed between 37.5-40.5 lbs depending on parts. It definitely made me stronger haha but overall I loved how hard I could ride the bike and still pedal it without blowing myself up. This fall, I kept showing up to group rides being the only one not on an e-bike. It was exhausting to keep up, and I realized I really needed an e-bike. But I love the...

He saw the writing on the wall before last season started. Knew no teams were going to sign riders going forward for good salaries. He was 'forced' into retirement. If YT offered him another $250k/yr for 3 more years, he'd still continue racing. Just like all these guys and gals that are 'retiring'. ...totally understandable that they don't want to grind and want to 'move on' with their lives when they're only being offered tiny salaries or bro hookups. But that's all that's on the table anymore for Enduro.

okay okay... just... on the TOPIC of whats good vs whats bad marketing for bikes (and me boomer-moaning about how it used to be cooler). this is EXACTLY... EXACTLY how you market your brand. I almost forgot how legendary Commencal's media production is cuz I feel like there were less concentrated edits in recent years. wow

If anything there is a point where on really steep stuff where it can pitch you forward a bit more, if your fork setup is marginal and you're going slow. But that's really steep, slow stuff that's full of steps, that most people don't ride regularly, if at all. And is exactly why everybody in arizona rides a bike with itty bitty chainstays and an air fork with 4 tokens in it, lol . The time it takes to retrain from shifting forward and driving corners with your hips/shoulders to staying in the middle and driving with your hips/legs can...

I tried those pants and the inseam on them is definitely too short. I think TLD pants fit in general is for rather bulky short-legged dudes. For reference I also need a 32 waist pants but my inseam is 34. From those pictures I can see that even on a shorter-legged dude those are on the edge. Dear designers/manufacturers, winter pants should generally be a little longer, nothing worse than a splash of water directly on your ankles when it's freezing, not to mention snow entering your boots.

Rode my Hightower V2 three seasons in the bike park. Had a great time. Keep hearing “there’s nothing like riding a downhill bike”. I believed the hype and bought a V10.8 in 2024. They were right.

Hi guy's I'd like to join the conversation too. I'm also in the process of creating my own DAQ system since the beginning of this year. The whole idea started because the whole story of Motion Instruments. I tried to reverse engineer the MI system to a certain degree and added my own twist to it. It currently supports just the suspension sensors, which are a linear potientiometer for the fork sensor and a magnetic rotary encoder for the rear. The whole idea of this project is to have a system that is somewhere between a shockwiz and the more...

My F38 with Smashpot and LiftV2 is the best thing I've done to my bike, insanely good. My recommendation is to stick with Vorsprungs spring rates. I'm about 90kg, 170mm F38, regular bike, Smashpot V1, 50lbs spring, HBO shimmed to more open and messed with oil. Green tune LiftV2 and there is plenty of usable adjustment, LSC is 4-7 from open and rebound about right in the middle most of the time.

FWIW, when I talked with Steve at Vorsprung about testing a Smashpot (I have one on test right now), he was excited to hear that I'd be pairing it with a Lift. The best and worst part about a coil spring is how active and frictionless it is compared to an air spring, and Steve said the stock Charger 3.1 damper provides less support than he'd like to see for a Smashpot coil conversion. In contrast, air springs inherently have more friction in them, which is just another form of damping. I'm excited to have more detailed thoughts to share...
