Testing is ongoing....having a ball...such good fun...the Kenevo is currently running the Fox40 27.5 wheel in the full 200mm travel with a Vorsprung smashpot coil conversion which is superbly smooth and buttery...this along with the link secondary suspension gives 255mm of next level overall compliance and capability....soooo confidence inspiring and good fun. Data collection is a V3 Pro BYB telemetry system which is superb....a really capable bit of kit which I am still learning. A quick look at some data above....this is a single event hitting a very large bump at around 44kph.....I have three travel sensors on the front...

It's a refreshing change when they let the person on the marketing team who actually understands mountain biking handle the mountain bike aspect of a "lifestyle" vehicle ad. And likely in this case they don't just understand it; they're deep in the weeds. Who outside of the sport has heard of Frameworks? Edit: because the presentation of the photo on Instagram offended me so much:

What if the riders had to tick off everything in practice before throwing down a final run in competition? Anyone trying something for the first time in finals gets an instant point or ranking penalty. The riders would need to be certain they could reliably land their features and tricks and might be less inclined to take these huge do-or-die...

To play devil's advocate Dunne is s 2 time world cup winner and a fair bit younger than Dak so I think if the team has a hierarchy Ronan has a fairly good claim on the no.1 spot . Having said that if Dak can have a good off season and get stronger then he's definitely a potential race winner , I'm not sure who Mondraker could get from the available riders who you would say is an upgrade on Dak . That's assuming its Mondrakers decision and Dak hasn't had an offer and it's his choice to leave .

Bruni could’ve taken the overall if Goldstone got less than 72 points, right? That’s 9th? Solid strategy pushing JG to go for it.

UCI MTB World Series shared a photo of Remy with his fine on their instagram. Maybe they didn't realize it was one of the last slides in Luke's post.

I think it’s fine and kind of fun. Not everything needs to be serious. There is plenty of adult sport fan content out there. It’s good there is something for the kids that’s still pretty palatable to me. No worse than a first intermission hockey segment from coatesy or coach.

Interesting post from Gwinny about a crash he had at the U.S. Open last week, and the onsite services that were available through Dirt Medical and NeruoCatch to diagnose and test for a concussion. Sounds like the next level in safety that DH races need.

It was me that initially said people here seem to be better. After then starting another thread in an attempt to stop constant derails the attitude of some contributors made it very clear things are no different here to Pinkbike. People are people, good and bad everywhere. Some people even go so low as to make comments that others then find it distressing to read over the World Champs weekend! That weekend of all weekends! That's just an example that was brought to my attention of how self centred and inconsiderate some people can be! 🤣 Edit; Not that you...

any and all relationship drama and discussions can be started in a new thread in the OFF THE BIKE forum area, NOT The Hub - https://www.vitalmtb.com/forums/VitalMTB/Off-the-Bike,3 - any topics like that started in The Hub will be nuked. any more relationship drama and discussion in this thread will be deleted.

I understand your point, and I'm not really trying to be critical of you citing his relevant economic ideas. The info dump I posted above is just too important not to post anywhere and everywhere that intelligent people can read and understand it. On the surface it all sounds like some meth addict conspiracy theory, but these people are out in the open talking about their plans, and not nearly enough people are aware of it. I'll stop derailing the thread now. Giant has some killer deals on clearance bikes right now (2022 Stance 299 for $800!?). I just picked...
