the other site seems to have more and more saying the new slash is the one posted awhile back and not being far away, Some were onboard for it to be the remedy - Id still like to believe its a remedy as the 36 at what looked to be 160mm travel.

Might want to contact Yutong if you want a bus. (you are also missing stack being a big issue, Long reach is compensated now by short stack, hence alot running high bars on big reach bikes) Chainstays and mullet I can agree with, We are seeing a relaxing on reach especially on Large's because over 488ish is quite long and...

Losing the front becomes a self fulfiling prophesy. You wash the front, so lose confidence, so start hanging off the back, so lose grip......so wash the front.

I dont measure sag in the fork ever, i start with recommended and adjust from there, as soon as you turn a dial the sag changes in theory. I do like to know how much travel i use though for giggles i call it the "yeeehaaaa bar"

The new boxxer was out in the wild for ~1.5 years maybe more (iirc) before they finally released it. New Vivid was only spotted this season. I wouldn't hold my breath. Especially with whole industry slowing down and lots of shops and companies overstocked.

When I see bikes like that (and the new Pivot, Demo, intense etc.) it makes me appreciate what Neko is doing with Frameworks even more.

opinion: I've watched the first 3 races as 1 month gave me that time, Honestly the track coverage is miles better than redbull and im a huge fan of the new semi format for viewing purposes. - just for this alone i think its worth it.

"granted frames are aligned in the first place" - yeah good luck with that, there is only a select few brands that have spot on alignment. Torque patterns are ment to help with such things but nobody pays any attention to that. one example of poor alignment at its poorest was trek with the current gen slash, between twisted rocker...
