I think there is a link error from the Reece Wilson Mullet icon on the homepage. No worries! I don't want to sound like a complaining recipient of free content.

I've mentioned it before, but now I just have to YELL! Hey UCI, technical trail riding should be it's own MTB category! With the likes of Jeff Lenosky, Jeff Kendal Weed, Danny Mac and Chris Akrig clearly becoming so popular this needs to happen. Back in '88 or so, when I got my first real MTB, I didn't really know where or what to ride. So I went to the closest trails that I knew, which were the equestrian trails in the Arroyo Seco South of the Rose Bowl in South Pasadena. Those were boring and sandy and really sucked...

I really dig eMTB's (class 1 of course). I really don't dig racing eMTB's (any class). I love to watch Supercross.

PeteHaile Added a reply to Why no 178.5 or 180mm mountain bike cranks?
6/10/2015 4:50pm I've had 180's on a few singlespeeds. You have huge leverage and it fits the mandatory low rpm climbing style ss imposes. Your feet are awfully far apart when descending, this makes pumping kind of weird, and fahgetttabout descending non-chocolate foot forward. On full suspension bikes you can easily compress your cranks into the ground, which isn't good...you just have...

PeteHaile Added a comment about feature Tech Tip: A Simple Cassette Modification That Could Save Your Rear Wheel
11/25/2012 3:57pm
This is a good tip! The point of the tip is not to keep the chain or upper derailleur pulley out of the spokes, as some of the comments would lead you to believe. This is valuable for the lower pulley and cage of your derailleur interacting with the spokes when either your derailleur or wheel gets out of sorts. When the going gets tough, the tough get going.
