The Horseshoe Crab of the MTB industry, peak evolution.

The only solution is to show up to MSA with a 45 pound bag of raw, dripping king crab meat and see who will take you up on the offer.

For simplicities sake I'll be using the king crab's pricing from this site: https://fishmanmkt.com/pages/market-prices WeAreOne: 39.53 lbs - $1976.10 Intense: 41.8 lbs lbs - $2089.58 Greg's Norco: 45.15 lbs - $2257.04 Gracie's Norco: 43.28 lbs - $2163.56 Transition: 39.37 lbs - $1968.10 Trek: 42.57 lbs - $2128.92 Giant: 39.29 lbs - $1964.10 Crestline - 39.88 lbs - $1993.60 Atherton - 40.32 lbs - $2015.59 Gamux - 44.62 lbs - $2230.55 Pivot - 36.38 lbs - $1818.63 Personally I'd love to pay crab pricing rather than the pricing we have now. Which of these athletes would consider trading to me their...

I'm honestly shocked the Pivot was the lightest DH bike they weighed by nearly 3lbs. Shame on Mondraker for denying the scale! That Haibike looks like an AliExpress Unno.

the varying weights of crabs may shock you. world cup DH bike weights.

And then, there's this. Full release here : https://www.mtb-news.de/news/haibike-e-bike-neuheiten-2025/ I'm aware there is actually a growing market for these kind of frames, as emtb makes the sport more accessible to newcomers -and hats off to Haibike for taking the chance. But GOD MY HEAD HURTS

I for one welcome our new crustacean overlords. TEAM CRAB

6 bar = king crab

So Horst Link = Crab Link Linkage Driven Single Pivot = Faux Crab Link High Pivot = Spider Crab Link Single Pivot = Rock Crab Link VPP & DW = Blue crab Link Hardtail = Lobster

A Horst link is also a Virtual Pivot design, but it's not a "VPP TM" design. Any bike that uses two links, connected to a member that the rear brake and axle are connected to is a 4 bar and a virtual pivot. VPP, Horst link, DW Link, the layouts that We Are One and Prime use, Breezers M link, and more all fall into that description, so we differentiate them by lower link length and the rotation of the links themselves. 4 bar or Horst typically means bikes with a long lower link, rear pivot close to the rear...

Imitation Crab? That's it, that's the entire post... Sorry... Couldn't Help it...

It’s pretty silly to say any size is too big or to small because that’s subjective, and im guilty of being sarcastically subjective just a page or so back! But id like to think that most manufacturers by now would be doing reasonable sizing increments 5 sizes = 425, 450, 475, 500, 525 or 4 sizes = 430,460,490,520 with +/- 5mm reach adjust - of course this is just some made up numbers so play with it as you will.

New Hei Hei looks like a Faux-Crab design…

Why does the Rail+ look like something old people would ride on the bike path next to a river on a sunny weekend day also can we please call Horst link bikes „crab link“ from now on it is fantastic

Bought by people who want tyres that are really knobbly and fast on road.And have 'gel' saddle covers.
