No high pivot, no idler, no flip-chip, no bonded lugs, no belt, no cable tourism, only four bars and a single chain? Will they even be able to ride that thing?

1/5/2025 11:38am Most don't need a MM as a rear tire, however given your riding local, I think it would be appropriate if you want pure grip. I ran a trail casing, ultra soft combo of Mary/Chan on my enduro bike this summer and was extremely happy. Obviously an ultra soft tire in the rear won't last long but the step up...

1/3/2025 4:53pm To further elaborate on my original comment in the tech rumor thread, the original idler bearing I had lasted 700-ish miles before it basically was seized. The solid lube bearing was offered with an updated idler aimed towards increased longevity. The SL bearing has seen 2500+ miles and is still spinning smoothly. Could I tell a difference between the original...

I have had a frame or two that lower link bearings wouldn't stay very fresh in. I put them in said link and they were bullet proof. I don't understand why they need to be $50 though. I'd use them in all my pivot locations and headtube if they were half as much.

Wonder if McDownhill “Kirk” will still be with the team in the pits as the engineer ?

1/1/2025 10:28pm For what it is worth, the Enduro SL bearing in my idler pulley has seen almost 2500 miles of PNW riding and still spins freely.

There was an interview with Sacki sometime around the release of the latest n greatest Reverb where he related Sram asking him for a post and he mistakenly thought there was the potential for a licensing arrangement. Turns out it was for reverse engineering purposes to find a way to circumvent his patents. Sure it happens and woe for assuming, but not even paying for the thing is a poor showing.

12/4/2024 8:04pm Been running enduro/soft 2.4"s on my trail bike for well over a year, no real complaints other then waiting for Conti to get off their ass and release the enduro/super soft iteration.

Nobody posted a screen shot of the Forbidden e-bike top tube teaser shot Owen posted? I didn't screen shot it to zoom in and see what drive unit dashboard was in the top tube.

That's not a review, it's a press release. There's no evidence that any actual riding took place, or that Blister even had a physical complete bike.

In fact, I started with the Stealth version (the black one) and gave it a full paint job like few frames had in 2007 (race version?). It's not the same design as the 2005 Canuck version.

Stealth was the frame only colorway for the 2007 RMX. Appears to be repainted like the 2005 frame only colorway (dubbed the "Canuck"). Drop dead sexy build!

I see what you're saying, But the spire is definitely not niche in my opinion, its just a big crab link. Dreddy or claymore come from smaller brands so according to my peanut brain they can do more interesting stuff with less risk. Slash is cool but still kind of basically a crab link HP?? I have not ridden any of them so I could just be totally out to lunch on this one, but it really seemed to me that the range was on the extreme end of descending focus and was a little bit of a dog as...

11/5/2024 7:51pm Not to continue the conversation but I think the biggest issue with the Range's lifespan was the availability. My buddy was all over ordering one at launch but all three builds had up in the air ETA's that basically lead to him purchasing another bike. I want to say the local shop only saw a bottom spec size small over...
