Good point actually, i did think about that as well. But the factory Nomads all come exclusively with RS suspension and Sram brakes, while he was on FOX suspension and Shimano brakes at the time.

As for Ratboy on Sram, he's been running Eagle in one of the EWS races, Colorado if i'm not mistaken.

Not trying to be a stravatard here, but that could be a real issue in a few years... Even if Strava makes e-bike leaderboards or anything the like, people can still post to ordinary non-e leaderboards. I'm starting to like e-bikes less and less to be honest.

And this is an obligatory 'OMG, ONE OF THE GUYS WE ARE TALKING ABOUT IS IN OUR SANDBOX, ACT COOL PEOPLE!!!' post. Smile Oh and Jesse it's really cool that you're this open when telling the world that you had offers and that these were particular offers, which in the end got turned down. I think it would be really...

It's been mentioned above/before, apparently his Genius is on TRP brakes and BOS suspension.

Haibike has been turned into an e-bike only brand, don't see him going that way. On the other hand, it is owned by a consortium, that also owns Ghost and Lapierre if i'm not mistaken. At least they used to (in the days of EI rock shox automatic lockout).

Being okay with it might actually not be true. 'Do this or you don't get the bucks' is also a good motivator to do stuff you are not that comfortable with in order to do the stuff she loves. And everybody does stuff like that, but the level of uncomfortableness is different for different people and different professions. And even...

Something along those lines, yeah. It's sad there are many women athletes, who don't do that well sponsorship wise, but have the results needed for the good stuff, while there are many women athletes, that don't do that well performance wise but get the good stuff due to their looks and marketing. And it's not just racing results, i don't...

Anybody else find this a bit inappropriate? I mean, don't get me wrong, i'm a standard guy when it comes to hot women and she looks amazing, but that's just it, she LOOKS amazing just standing there instead of being celebrated and cheered at for her riding...

Yeah, Rotor has been equipping the XC bikes for the whole of 2017 if i'm not mistaken, but the DH/Enduro guys did ride Sram cranks this year i think.

This. Earthed series was just awesome, i much preferred it to the New World Disorders, that was too much slopestyle and freeride for me.

Sharing the thoughts about Steve Jones. Why put such an encyclopedia of mountainbiking into a e-MTB exclusive role??

Not all, rotor straightener and pedal wrench are most likely either laser cut or stamped. But the company, while known for tools among the masses, is just a huge forging business, which makes conrods for many high end cars for example. Enough with the nitpicking, given the devinci rumor and the accompanying line in the predictions, it does fit.

VPP has counter rotating links. That's the whole point of VPP compared to DW, Maestro & co.

FOX Racing, i.e. the clothing supplier. Which is shared with Loris and the Seagrave family. Which were all posted by Tahnee (both the pull-up-off of Loic and Loris and a picture of them together on the beach).

11/18/2017 2:49pm
Exactly. Yeah, reach is usefull for the 'bike handling' number, but i still maintain that the cockpit length is MUCH more important on any bike, that gets pedalled. Like i always say, for every 10 minutes of descending you do an hour or even more of spinning pedals seated down. Of course any sane person will prioritise the fit of...
