All

F*ck me this thread gets derailed so easily. Who cares about the difference in electronic shifter paddles. Who knows when we’re getting a 200mm AXS reverb?

She probably ordered them 18 months ago and they just got delivered

live with THE UNION from the PITS right now. video below or go here if you want to ask questions on youtube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQ4rNWCxzQ4

we just experimented with a live pit bits. lawlor cruising around. we'll work out some kinks, make it a bit more formal and keep it going in leogang and if you're online at the time, can ask questions via youtube. our regular pit bits video w/ more deets will show up later today. boosh!

pit bits 1 from lenzerheide up. nothing too crazy today, but tomorrow will show something that should stir plenty of comments. https://www.vitalmtb.com/photos/features/pit-bits-2023-world-cup-downhi…

They released the bike >1 year ago

I mean he would say that, wouldn't he. Doesn't he also own the business that imports Pivot bikes into the UK? (Besides owning the Pivot Factory racing team I mean.)

Looks like a wet scream. Maybe just mis-labeled? Mis-hotpatched?

I'll get there. I had a priority list of things to tackle once I changed teams and getting my suspension completely dialled was more important than Flight Attendant.

This PB???

I haven't looked into six-bar stuff in a little while but this completely flips the suspension layout, although at least to start I think the IC is in a pretty similar spot. I don't have access to Linkage at the moment but I'm sure the changes are more pronounced throughout the travel; here's a quick sketch:

Sounds like commencal might’ve lost enough tempo sales due to cable routing they’ve learned their lesson

Now, I am in no way an advocate for headset cable routing, but Shirley youd have to agree, that, from a distance looks great. So much so that the front brake line kinda sticks out like a sore thumb. .......And dont call me Shirley.....

Crank length rumors and innovations

Personally don’t think SRAM’s current cable actuated group sets really need an update. Would much rather have them invest in reducing prices for it than a 1 percent increase in shift quality.

I wish it would, but it looks unlikely. The frame is a normal bike without an engine, but there is a big sticker, that says UN3481, with is a shipping regulation for dangerous goods. So this build will end up with at least one Li-Ion Battery on it. Maybe it's just a reverb axs dropper post, but my guess is GX Transmission AXS. The whole direct mount standard, without limit screws etc. is build around the wireless derailleur. Therefore I don't see a cable accurated version coming any time soon.

New GX cranks on Ben Cathros story - being built up onto Santa Cruz’s going for sale, meaning we can’t be far off the GX launch
