I agree about the unavoidability of Strava, but I drew a different conclusion about how to respond to that reality. Instead of working extra hard to hide the trail, keep it secret, and try to avoid people who use Strava from finding out about a trail, I think illegal trail building should be built in such a way to anticipate, plan for, and hope for people to find out about the trail. The question should be: if this trail is going to be discovered by the authorities no matter what, how can I build it so that it's worth maybe...

Front Hub configuration, style, and bearing size have little influence on the performance that you get out of a conventional or "right side up" MTB suspension fork. This is due to the fact that the lower legs are one-piece, connected by the lower leg fork brace. The same cannot be said for manufacturers of inverted MTB forks. With an inverted design, the hub ties the two lower legs together. The more robust the hub, the more robust the performance from the chassis and vice versa. Is it possible that we'll see a shift in front hub designs as Inverted forks...

I had no idea so many people were running 60mm stems in 2026. I thought since like 2020 50mm was the absolute max with 40 and 35 being most common.

The venn diagram overlap of "has enough money to mess around with expensive parts and has an expensive bike" and "does not own proper hex keys or a bike stand" is maddening.
