Hey guys, just wanted to jump on here and say thank you to all who is supporting me throughout this situation! It means a lot to have you guys backing me through it. It was a tough pill to swallow forsure but I know everything will work out in the end. Excited to get on track this weekend in Maribor!

The hoops some people will jump thru to be pessimistic negative and just generally shitty. How does Ben Shapiro being on Aaron’s tv have anything to do with this and how is that a way to judge a man’s full political beliefs. I voted for Bernie sanders twice and there are some things I’d agree with Shapiro over sanders on. Why does every single tiny controversy turn into some crazy conspiracy that the “ evil greedy gwin” is the center of. When every single interview the guy has ever done points to a modest guy who praises hard work and...

Not a Tach Rumor but I saw this posted in the comments section of another site and thought it was an interesting read: www.sram.com/globalassets/document-hierarchy/service-manuals/rockshox/rockshox-suspension-theory-guide-rev-c.pdf

Yes, but in “none more black.”

Looks like SRAM are working on a new integrated braking system, similar to the Magura MCI system. The big advantages here are that there don't appear to be any holes in the bar, so it should fit a standard bar. Also, this should be rotationally adjustable, unlike prior systems that were in fixed positions. Good pictures in this one too, if you want to check it out. https://wheelbased.com/2021/07/29/handlebar-integrated-master-cylinder-assembly-by-sram/

Can someone just start a BICKERING ABOUT GEOMETRY thread so that we can get on with TECH RUMORS here?

The "soon" I heard on the Megatower was spring of next year, and it will be billed as a my23. That info came around when I first saw the mullet Bronson earlier this year.

Looks like SRAM are working on a new Shockwiz-type suspension analysis device. They've figured out a way to package the system much smaller, so everything (battery, sensor, circuit boards, antenna, etc.) fits inside the top cap. It should be a nice looking package that'll be less susceptible to damage. https://wheelbased.com/2021/07/12/bicycle-suspension-components-and-electronic-monitoring-devices-by-sram/

Is that confirmed ? Possibly related: on BK's vlog he says the road gap is shut a couple of times (19:20ish here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OklpWi3tfug). Not clear if that's due to crashes or something else Edit: a few seconds later he says it's shut because of "poor Marine". Ugh.

Car on a downhill course ... I mean it is france after all. Little shrug of the shoulders from the marshall, no biggie ... c'est la vie ;-)

andreas kolb has to deal with traffic on course. like actual an car cutting in front of him. mental

Looks like people are struggling to straighten the bike back out after the corner, and are drifting out in the air. I don't envy anyone expected to go from a catch berm straight into a 15-foot drop.

It almost seems like workers labor is undervalued by the people running the companies they work for. Like workers aren’t receiving a fair share of the value they generate for their firms. I’m just spitballing here.
