2/13/2025 1:47pm I see your size-specific chainstay lengths and raise you – size-specific wheelsizes! 24" XS, 26" S, 27.5" M, 29" L, and 32" XL.

2/13/2025 10:05am Bike brands: You don't need to tool and produce 27.5" lowers anymore, the market wants mullet and full 29" bikes. Fork makers: Phew, what a relief. Between wheelsize, offset, and axle sizes, it's a lot of parts to manage. Bike brands: What have you got in the works for 32"? Fork makers: Excuse me?
NoahColorado Added a reply to Fox 38 air spring in Zeb chassis?
2/12/2025 10:12am No threads on the Noken to add tokens on. We considered that, but adding the feature reduced volume and added manufacturing complexity. The tradeoffs, we decided, weren't worth it. With the two generations of Rock Shox air springs available, volume tunability with the standard air cap, and the Noken, there are a lot of different spring curve options with various...

2/7/2025 2:22pm I can't find the data right now, but the Zeb is more progressive than the 38. IIRC, a big part of that is lower-leg ramp effect.

2/7/2025 8:57am Sure, plenty of towns, cities, regions, and even neighborhoods/developments have recognized that trails could be a draw, but it's the scale of what's been going on in Bentonville and NWA generally that's clearly an outlier. It's really unprecedented. A benefit of that scale, and the amount of influence Walmart and Walmart-adjacent groups have in everything, is what makes it possible...

2/6/2025 7:40pm But it seems like the Bentonville "model" is not something that can be duplicated anywhere. For years its been heralded as some great example for other communities to take inspiration from, but it's a ridiculous notion. I've seen it firsthand at People for Bikes industry events and the like where people from Oz Trails, Visit Bentonville, or even the mayor...

2/6/2025 2:19pm I dunno, the overtake was nuts. Especially Jackson's whip at 3:34 right after. 😳

2/6/2025 1:54pm https://mrpbike.com/products/noken I've got one of these in each of my Zebs. Does what it says. I can now use ~95% of travel on both my 160 & 170 Zebs, running 1psi over RS suggested pressure. Feels great.

2/5/2025 10:46am “Brake Jack” is supposed to refer to negative antirise, where your bike stands up horrifically under braking because the wheel is effectively rotated backwards when the suspension compresses under braking, but basically no bike has actually had to deal with this since the 90s. I think what most people actually interpret as brake jack is their rear suspension stiffening from chain tension/pedal kick, causing the bike to stand up as if it had negative anti rise. These days single pivot bikes are not doing this any better or worse than 4bar bikes so I think it’s largely a non issue.

2/4/2025 9:58am Can’t believe we’re going to see Hill, Rat, Vermette, Jackson, and Dunne all race the same track on the same day. Some of the most exciting racers of all time, at the same time. 💪🏻🏁👌🏻
