All

so far this is the only source, its a local newspaper from the area they are located in

only slapping this in here because of the topic of wages that came up. here's how much you can make in rural tennessee working at a massive gas station (saw it on the way to windrock). nearly quarter of a mil for experienced GM lol

I heard it will be in June.

This new 36 SL is interesting. It has a rumored weight of 1795g (29″ 140 Grip X) which is similar to the previous gen Fox 34. Apparently it is optimized for 120 to 140 mm of travel which could land it on beefed up downcountry rigs and short travel trail bikes. If the weight is similar then what would happen to the non-SL 34? I've been using a 34 GRIP2 on a previous downcountry rig which now it lives on a 140mm trail bike. This 36 SL would be a pretty sweet upgrade.

The holes increase airflow around the stanchion, aiding cooling and improving damping consistency by 11%. As a side note, 80% of statistics are made up on the spot.

That would be good, using the bleeder screws was a stoooooooopid idea!

Wonder what these threaded bosses are for? Different mudguard?

not gonna lie they look slick like this arch more than the round one on the previous gen but it might just be new and shiny syndrome

Haven’t seen this yet, but Matt Beers’ cape epic bike has srams’ mineral oil “motive” brakes on it.

2026 Fox 36SL confirmed?

you can literally see where it was stitched together in photoshop

Sram has a big release/announcement this Thursday.

"If I had to give one piece of advice to almost any business, it's this: reduce the number of choices you offer your customers . I've mentioned this elsewhere in the thread, but the more small business financials I look at, the more this rings true—objectively so." Amen, brother. Preach. For years, I've thought that exact same thing about the number of choices, in particular every time I look at the 5.10 shoe offerings, or the Maxxis tire catalog. We all know that there are like 3 good shoes in the 5.10 line, and somewhere between 3 and 5 good...

The MTBR Ibis forum had someone who spotted the new Ibis Ripmo AF frame in Santa Cruz, one black and one raw alloy. Interested to see what changes they make (if any) compared to the V3 Ripmo carbon.

I've had a few new fox products, including the one released today, in my hands over the last few weeks and while I'm not a fox fan boy, the feel and look of the new 34SL, - Redacted- and - Redacted- are certainly a bump up from the previous gen. It'll be interesting to see how they review. The 34SL is stupid light in your hand.

This explains why Propain may be having issues getting my fork warrantied out as it's still pending SRAM's portal update.

Ooooof, sounds like someone messed up a database migration/upgrade 😝
