Moi Moi 2025 Bike Check! It's pretty rad that he doesn't dodge why he's no longer running SRAM brakes/RockShox suspension.

Yes, although I guess anything under $200k can't be considered a lot anymore.

How long should my dropper be? What's the seat post insertion depth on (insert bike)? If you know, add the deets below. Are there apps for figuring out dropper length? (Vital member @Vincent P shared one he built - www.dropperchecker.com ) Every human is different and every bike is different, so how do we make sure our dropper posts are working toward the ulitmate riding experience? Talk about it all here.

How does a stem have a fork travel restriction/rating? How is it eMTB ready? Genuinely curious.

I'm leaning towards a protector on top so I can even take it out during long climbing, but I like that non-sleeve version with a decent chest protector

3/10/2025 4:08pm I've been using the TLD Stage Ghost for a year now (it can be had with or without shoulder protection). I find it incredibly comfortable, although the zipper is a little annoying. But I do feel the coverage it's given me in crashes has been phenomenal! It might not be enough rib coverage for you though

I’m 6’3” and have been on mullet for 2 bikes now. Everything said above rings true for me. It feels great in turns which for me seems to keep the bike lively even though it is long in an XL. Feels like I can really squat and dig in the rear end for traction on steeps, probably due to what SteveClimber described about the “endo angle.”

Mullets are popular for a few reasons, clearance being a big one, but due to the difference in axle heights front to rear you get very good turn in and its often easier to corner because of it. In most tests the pros found mullets to be faster because of this which is why even tall pros opt for mullet bikes these days. Other benefits are stronger rear wheel means less failures, lighter unsprung mass on the rear can improve suspension performance. Obviously roll-over is worse, but pump performance is improved.
