Preaching to the choir, if i could, i'd have tons of cars. But i think, even making something like 500k a year, i'd be scared for the first few years to blow the money on something as 'fleeting' as a car. Only if it was clear that the money was well invested and wasn't going anywhere would i be calm...

If we're talking about the video, yeah, most certainly a Porsche, the new (991) GT3. If it's his own, he must be making some serious cash for the past few years. The MSRP for the ordinary GT3 is 130k USD but with the current prices it's easy to think it was more like 150 (and some options). That's a sizeable...

Guys are always testing, i remember the Athertons did the same thing with the rocker on the V3 Supreme back in the Commencal days.

Primoz Added a reply to How To Convert Your 10-Speed Transmission To 11

QFT Jeff, QFT. Though, as you said, the shifter and the derailleur are expensive (35 € for the GX shifter, 90 € for the der.), the whole kit (shifter, derailleur, cassette and chain) can be had for 230 € on bike-components for the GX group. Okay, you'd save ~100 €, but you could just as well sell the 10 speed...

Isn't the point of the DW link patent that the line through the top link crosses the bottom link (between the bearings) at full stroke? Only one of the three DW link bikes in the video does that. Wouldn't that effectively invalidate the patent? Has it been amended?

Any publication worth it's salt will not publish any confirmed, but still not public news. In some cases (IT industry) there are strict NDAs in place preventing that, but any gun jumping and publishing of rumors will probably blacklist that publication. Also publications dealing with rumors on a regular basis tend to be very yellow and click baitish.

The ski racing world has much more analogies with MTB, based on the type of racing, than with road cycling. DH is the same in both cases, you have a course, you're flying down the mountain. Either on skis or on a bike. Okay, ski racing also has Super G, GS and Slalom, which MTB doesn't have. Ski racing has...

Well that's 5 inches (almost 13 cm) less than me and i don't feel THAT tall. I think both Peaty and Minaar ar taller than i am. As for the bike, due to my long legs i ride a large Reign. I just about fit on it leg length wise (it could be a bit taller) while i prefer the...

Looks like a session. But seriously, is Gee THAT tall? He never seemed to be a giant, while it's known that Peaty and Greg are very tall (even the Rat is supposedly quite tall, but he kinda looks small when in the company of Steve and Greg).
