9/13/2025 6:24pm AI is good for some things I guess! From the AI-generated summary that sourced the Ursa Bikes patent app: https://patents.google.com/patent/CA3155940A1/en

[edit by @sspomer - revel asked that the photo be removed] She's a looker. It's interesting to see that it has a vertical shock layout, unlike their other offerings.

Looks like one to me. I made myself a crude adjuster added onto the original hardware. Was working on something like the pictured one but haven't finished yet due to injuries. My first version also seems to do the job just fine so I haven't prioritized it much, but I'm happy to find my pictures and share

Not sure if the embargo ends today anyway, but you can check out the Ripley AF on youtube. Apparently the Eagle 90 spec is 4k USD and the lower tier one 3.4 k or something and geo is shared with the carbon version. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqJBjwI8-JE The Vid also has a pic of the Ripmo AF, which looks actually pretty nice in raw alu.

7/15/2025 11:24am https://www.rraven.co/zerro-intro (semi-stolen from the other site) Very cool concept. I assume the two levers just push fluid on either side of a piston in the seat post, or something to that effect. Hydraulic leverage is a wonderful thing. The videos look sped up to me, so I wonder how fast it actually is and how much lever force is actually...

Somebody asked about fork dampers on Vorsprung's IG last week, and they said "sure", or words to that effect. I emailed Vorsprung asking if they could make a 38 damper, and they replied that Steve has designs started, there is no guaranteed timeline, but that they can likely make one that's cost competitive vs the GRIP X2 and Charger 3.1 dampers. When I regained consciousness, I posted about it here.

5/16/2025 9:56am A gearbox bike can use a chain or belt, but a belt- driven bike needs a gearbox (unless running single speed…). So the belt is necessitating the gearbox, not the other way around.

It looks like they borrowed the guts from a Shimano pedal to make this prototype. The markings on the spring adjustment look identical to a PD-M8000
