Primoz Added a reply to 2020 Mountain Bike Team Rumors
12/21/2019 6:22am DH bikes are useless. They only fit the bikeparks and racing while trail and enduro bikes are much more versatile. THey have a place, but not for the average rider, which is shown by the sales numbers. As for DH, you could say it's the F1 of the sport. But to be the proper F1 of the sport, race bikes...

In my opinion, the social (esp IG) influencer personality and content has a shelf life. People are going to catch on to how disingenuous it is, and it’s going to become more and more transparent how ‘advertisey’ it is. When we make a move to work with someone of any stature, be it mega pro to local ripper / good person their social reach is far from a metric we place value on. It might seem ridiculous but we place human contact and interaction value so far beyond any social bs. I find it a shame that so many companies...

Primoz Added a comment about press release Sprindex: Adjustable Coil Spring Rate on the Fly

Your comment makes no sense. Preload does not affect spring stiffness. Plus it's difficult to put a preload air chamber onto a coil shock.

Excellent idea, let's mount the bike by clamping the grips and seat to the car on the place that is the dirtiest and let's just gently rest it on the tailgate with the seat. On the dirtiest part of the car. Surely the bike will not bounce and move around.

11/21/2019 1:15pm They made a huge deal about Pastrana dropping his Red Bull helmet for a Nitro Circus one... So seems like yes, for the most part.

I find the 'more laps, more fun' argument a cheap cop out for e-bikes. I wanna go to Mt. Everest during my lunch break. Why can't I? Huh?? Plus who says you're not going to be sweaty from a MTB ride. By that logic, go for an MX run, you'll be able to sleep half the way through it! I think all the rage about e-bikes comes from an instant gratification culture we're living in. Want more laps but don't want to get tired? Want more laps in the lunch break? Aren't in shape and want to keep up with...

11/12/2019 7:03am I think nothing much is happening with Primož at Orbea, he's been partnered with them for quite a few years and has proven himself in different roles. Cutting someone off after a year doesn't make much sense. Plus Vid Peršak had some nice results even though he wasn't on the full program, while Thomas Lapeyrie was injured mid season (i...

And there's the backfire. But i must admit the customer support OneUp has is top notch. Plus I'm thinking the three small bearings (or the bushing of the redesigned rebuild kit) could be replaced with a needle bearing, the dimensions fit, i'd just need to have a 1 mm spacer machined.

Well the Spikes were the reason i decided that i don't ever want to have bushings on my pedals again. Boy did that backfire on another product :D But i still think the elusive rolling element only bearing pedal that works is out there!

11/8/2019 11:09am If i described a very similar transmission in rough (two opposing pyramids) that i thought up literally a week ago and posted it to a Slovenian forum, is that grounds to dispute (and prevent the filing of) of a patent? I once heard that having the idea by someone else in the public domain gives you grounds to prevent the...

First thing i saw was 'easy to maintain'. They better be with the IGUS bushings wearing out in two or three months and the pedals getting noisy due to increased clearance int he bushing (pedal clacking around when dropping your bike to the ground which then sounds like a loose headset, suspension pivots, etc.). Sadly, the bearings in them are custom so the only thing you can do is buy an official rebuild kit. Which is somewhat expensive (for essentially two bearings) and not always easy to find in stock. Which is a bit of a problem since the only...
