A 36 lbs e bike is probably equivalent to a 29 lbs trail bike. Light tires, lots of carbon, not durable. a 36 lbs trail bike is hopefully cheap and durable

It is probably a great bike, but that model is built with the same parts as you would find on a WC XC race bike, fox 34s, XC carbon wheels and tires etc. Not really comparable to a 35lbs trail bike. I Wish everyone would just list frame weights, parts are all third party and not specific to the frame anyway.

There is a logic to this madness. FWIW, like I said, calling the bike a 6-link, not a 6-bar is a sneaky, but a technically correct move. I mentioned 'linkage driven single pivots' before, so I am fine with this being called a 6-link 4-bar. Logic. With a bit of 'fuck logic' added

Interesting. Not that I know anything about bike manufacturing but seems like they are cutting it close to change geo for a spring sale. Still funny they call it a "release" without the geo. No offense to Intense, but if I was about to buy a fancy DH frame it'd be a Frameworks anyway.

Before people continue to try and call them out that its not 6 bar, Intense are calling it a “6-link” design…. Steber has been saying that on his socials all along.

It has a pretty “G” on the side of the caliper. At least 10 braking* horsepower added in with that. Its impressive really

So lessee: 4-piston, top-loading, moto/Hope style levers, Shimano/cup bleed, 2-piece caliper, 1-piece clamp, looks like reach (and maybe bite-point) adjustment (tool required), what else am I missing?

Not terribly ugly, albeit maybe a little odd compared to the big brands we’ve been using forever. Galfer rotors and pads are really good. I recommend them to anyone looking for something outside the regular offerings. Considering their position in motorsports, I’m sure their bicycle brakes are going to be solid.

Indeed. Which is why I have this on the go. Pretty? not really. Nails the kinematics and functionality though, for me. Please ignore the unfinished business in many areas.
