North shore bike park has moved into the old Air Rec site and is planning to reopen this fall.

I think the chassis was unchanged, that the differences were in the piston/shim/cone-valve parts and the knobs were anodized red. You could view it as a very custom tune. Those damper parts are CNC machined whether you follow the existing DVO design or make the cone-valve parts. Making new CNC parts just means you start with a different program on the CNC. Designing and tuning those parts might've been little more than a fun distraction for WP's damper design/tuning guy if he was tinkering with his own ebike prototype.

Well just wanted to share some results on some tire durometer measurements that I have collected of some of the more popular tires in my collection. Method: All tires were measured while sitting on a flat plate of steel to provide equal and consistent backing support. Nothing was measured mounted. I measured the Maxxis brand new out of the box and again after this weekend's Boondocks race at NorthStar, no change was detectable in the results, so I just added the miles that I was at after measuring yesterday. All measurements were an average of 3. The hysteresis of the...

Read the interview and understand the reasoning. My (slight) disappointment has nothing to do with the current political stuff.

That's absolutely fvcking hilarious, so you can buy a new T70 for $125, and then buy this kit for $550, coming to a total of $675 and you had to wreck a perfectly good derailleur or you can pay full MSRP of $650 USD for the complete GX derailleur(400), shifter pod (150), battery (60) and charger (40) and save $25 OR you could buy an ENTIRE Shimano Deore 12spd groupo for like $270 USD and have absolutely amazing shifting that can be easily serviced/fix if anything happens trailside and no batteries to forget to charge 🥴

butch is just mad because he's got exponentially more excuses than podiums.

There's a really good section in Earthed 5 of Sam Hill pursuing and smashing the 1:04 time. Back in the Iron Horse days. Nigel tries to follow him with a big ole helmet cam and there's a few sections where Hill just drops him. Earthed 5: Sam Hill on the 1:04
