Did you follow the link explaining the linkage? You will see an idler mounted to the lower link

But that would require actual investment....

You can really tell with the delay that they're announcing off site. They're always a moment or move behind where Rob and team would explode in the moment that something happened if what they were watching. It takes the enjoyment out of it almost completely. When Gracey hit the hole in that corner and almost lost it, she's recovered and was two corners out by the time they addressed it. Same as when Vergier crashed.

Vali's winning run. What a remarkable athlete.

"Speaking to the eBike riders I see on the trails here, they're all shifting to lower-priced bikes as they've realized that they can without sacrificing performance." This lines up with a hypothesis I've been thinking about for a while, which is that I think so much of the weirdness of the bike industry and bike customers (obsession with grams and weight, obsession over granular differences in tire feel and suspension tuning, and willingness to spend enormous amounts to customize and upgrade a stock bike) comes down to the weakness of the human motor and the human mind.

all they had to do was add an E and an I haha

Just get us a photo of the newest yeti 5 bar analog bike at the taco stand and it’s not a derailment I think I’d settle for a Horst Kona at a burrito bar Or a carbon evil revolt 29 at a cake shop

When everyone knows new bikes are to be tested in Transition's parking lot

I made custom crowns for some dorados a few years ago doing the same thing

It’s a Pivot 🤣 Someone needs to teach that guy how to lie to bike nerds better… at least call it a Specialized or any brand that’s not married to DW link… rookie

Thinking of myself, I don't know that I'm that consistent of a rider yet. I'm similar to your friend in that I'm a musician and someone who isn't afraid to dive into the details of anything. I've been riding 3 years and I find myself a little too inconsistent in my riding to imagine bracketing to be a super useful practice. I feel like I'll get more out of trusting my bike and just learning to ride it better. If I were to guess, one of the things your friend and I might also have in common is that we...

I’m dying of thirst over here

No Way.

I am not seeing how the last 4 pages of this thread have anything to do with rumors or innovation.

It's like comparison of digital cameras. Lens quality? Sensor size and DR? Shutter implementation? Who cares, it has 600Mpix!

Guess I will keep my mechanical normal bike and ride it like someone who purchased photoshop in 2014
