It says Sixfinity on the website but where is it hiding? Looks like the rocker could potentially actually be a split pivot and it also looks like something hiding in the seat tube behind the shock area…

Sure... Perhaps someone could guide you to some insight?

looking at the GT, you're right, same ballpark...thanks for clarification. also curious as to why a "non yeti" platform.

is it really possible… yeti back in the dh-game?!

Not that deep bro

The thing with that is... The cycling industry sold the unknowing consumer on something, that is more or less more expensive and more cumbersome or complicated, that gives little to no benefit, but looks cool. And because of one of these something, another something was implemented. It's up to you to decide did the wireless drivetrains enable through-headset routing or does through-headset routing necessitate wireless drivetrains. I'll be here in my corner with external routing and mechanical drivetrains.

I'm in the same boat electronics wise, as I've made it clear many times, but I'm also very interested in what is happening for precisely this reason. If you want a mechanical grouoset that is worth peanuts on the road, for any "new" stuff you have to go Campagnolo. Both Sram and Shimano have gone fully electric, 105 and Rival included. With Campagnolo only the Super record is electronic, but is is also available in mechanical form. While Di2 12spd mountain groups are nowhere to be seen, all the murmurs are that Sram will only have a gx mechanical group...

Anybody else here who just couldn't care any less what nonsense SRAM is up to or am I the only one? I'm just not at all excited about electronics this, wireless that - but that is what SRAM seems to have focused on these days. None of that stuff is gonna get anywhere near my bike.

Whatever it is, I hope they ditch the "this is the only roman font we have on this computer" stanchion markings.

At the risk of sounding "boomer", I'm going to say that gearboxes are nowhere near ready for bicycles. (maybe shuttled downhill only?) Anyone who has rebuilt any transmission, car / motorcycle / tractor, knows that the amount of unavoidable drag /resistance / friction /watt-sucking is shocking. downvote me because you love Honda clickbait

Tire swapping conversations in team rumors might be a sign of the times, silly season is wrapped up (??)

Back on topic please

Interesting headset with obviously integrated cable routing but would it be possible to have some reach adjustment? BTW, I'm shocked it's not standard on more bikes to have some reach and angleset adjustment. I would minimize the number of molds required: manufacturers could probably tackle 6 sizes with 2 front triangles. I think GG is doing something similar.

Am I seeing a void in the carbon layup in the right bottom part?

the new Specialized Epiccaliber?
