What about knowledge and they have gained over the last year. My bet is that their interpretation of how kinematics translates into real world performance has gone up massively. That they could have just copied a demo/sender (but added an idler) and gotten the same results is pretty short sighted imo. Not to mention that suspension kinematics is only part of the equation, what about chassis flex, and geo?

It takes a couple of clicks but if you go to the site you will see that the PANZER 'boxes' include 1 insert and 1 bottle of 125ml sealant so you will be fine and have enough sealant per insert and the marketing team won't need to be fired and can live to fight another day.

Done. Although the title has been censored, Vital don't seem to like the word 'cockpit'. Now back to tech rumours, has anyone heard anything about GT strengthening their DH frames? Asking on behalf of Roger Viera.

Sounds like buddy maybe just rode a properly bled and bedded in pair of codes for the first time (with the stealth levers). Amazing how proper brake maintenance and well setup rotors/pads with straight alignment can make a world of difference.

They're also the house brand of a powerhouse bike manufacturer. I think they'll be fine. P.S., It's kinda funny how the tech rumors thread - something you think would be very niche - has somehow turned into Vital's general thread

I’m assuming he’s figuring his calipers are more powerful simply based off the fact Magura’s are temperamental, fragile, plastic landfill fodder.

6/21/2023 10:13am Interesting, the same rule states "The manufacturer may request a single prolongation of the prototype status if justified by relevant reasons", so they could potentially extend their commercialization status further (not sure if the prolongation is a whole year though). Classic UCI though for being terrible with which rules they choose to enforce. Although I did read part of the...

6/21/2023 9:44am As for the new demo, I think it shouldn't be long now until it's released. Not sure if this has been covered but when the UCI grants a prototype authorization, they require the product to be commercialized within "12 months of first use in competition" (UCI ARTICLE 1.3.006). I believe the first use of the new demo in competition was...
