Has anyone on here actually ridden a Rux? I feel like I need a real life, non website review of it. Seems like and sleeper and at the same time, not one.

Also, looks like Suntour has a new Rux. Different graphics, drop crown, offset looks different too maybe.

I'm pretty certain that Transmission doesn't "know" anything about position of ramp cogs. The system has a stiffer chain, more precise alignment between the derailleur and cassette, more force from the derailleur, and a refined ramp pattern. When you queue up multiple shifts, you immediately hear the bzzt bzzt bzzt of the derailleur moving, then the chain works it's way up/down the cassette. If it knew where the ramps were, you'd click click click, then it would break up the bzzt as gears changed. XTR shifting in my experience is quicker if you time shifts. T-Type (I have on an...

Pretty sure Luca's going into a new DH program with 23degrees with Cami, Benoit and the rest of the remaining Dorval team to re-invigorate Haro with their new VPP version of the Magnum .357 DH bike. But this is put hearsay to take it as you will.

There's a huge push being put on shops to sell E-bikes right now, and TBH, rightly so. Its finally a product that people want that actually makes shops money even if they are more of a pain in the ass on the back end. E-bike racing would certainly help push E-mountain out the door, not that in my area at least its an issue. Our local hill has three main climbs, two are about 430m high with an average of 10% grade and the other is 430m and 9km long so they pretty much sell themselves for people who have...

Well we know where the trolls that get banned from other forums end up.

Absolutely noone wants to read your political posts, and your name dropping really isn't helping either. Loads of folk in the chat have contacts with high level names in the mtb world but dropping them like you are doing is just weird. We are all here for fun team rumours chat not politics. Take it elsewhere.

From the associated interview: " What sets my bike apart from all others is the purple twin tube adjustable coil shock. This is something I was super excited to develop with Cornelius (Intend) as part of my master thesis. It didn’t make it to production though so now I am riding the only one of its kind and us it as the perfect suspension development platform." https://trickstuff.de/rides-of-trickstuff-episode-8/

New coil shock from Intend in the works? https://www.instagram.com/p/CyvLifFt6Jp/?img_index=2

Buddy, lots of people on here have done lots of cool stuff, are doing lots of cool stuff, know many amazing people and are also very involved in the bike industry at many different levels or are those people that are racing. They just don't use it to try to boost and make it seems like their comments or opinions matter more than others. If you want to be taken seriously I'd chill and show some respect to all the people you name dropped enough not to use them to try and elevate yourself above someone else.

IDK, what I am picking up is he has many leather-bound books and an apartment that smells of rich mahogany. We should take him very seriously and acquiesce to him throwing things that have nothing to do with rumors into a rumors thread. That said, I also don't think one should be banned for such a mistake.

Maybe something’s lost in translation, but you’re sounding pretty much like a serious douchebag. Hopefully you sober up in the morning and edit your post.

I hope you’re wearing steel toe boots with all those names you’re dropping.

Maybe already covered but Also seems like a v3 madonna on the way, but maybe it’ll just be subtle upgrades like the t type mount etc. https://raawmtb.com/pages/madonna-v3

Not a team rumor, keep actual world politics out of this please.

One thing I'm having a hard time understanding is how this "...some people got a little too optimistic in the last 3 years and partied like it was gonna be 2020 forever." happened. What kind of CFO/money person thought the boom was going to continue and was able to convince private investors, people who's whole job is figuring out market cycles, that it was worth taking a chance on? Why/how?

The chain will come off if you do it like that, you need raised edge to keep if from getting stuck between cassette locking and frame.

Suspension designed around an Ochain? From the the recent PB pod with Neko, sounds like he designed his axle path to be almost vertical with a high pivot point but sans idler, meaning probably lots of chain growth, but with an Ochain, problem solved! Seems like a great idea especially for an Enduro rig where pedaling efficiency is a priority.

that gravel thing is so wrong it looks right for some reason. Thanks Marketing guy.

Hello everyone! There are some fresh rumours from the German website mtb-news.de. I will sum up everything. Some rumours are well known, but there are also interesting new...
