I second Amaury's questions about safety. Our rider Tristan Lemire had a bad crash in practice that caused him to fall just to the side of the track. He came to a stop on the tree pictured here. He was very lucky to have only broken a metacarpal and will be back in Andorra. He very easily could have been...

Which new Smuggler? Maybe go to the other site and track down @CarbonSmuggler420 to see what he knows? He's always sleuthing around. Unrelated to product launches, we'll be dropping some news soon about an exciting new adventure we're embarking on. A young poutine, a younger coffee bean, and three younger salmon's...

Lars from Transition Bikes here. Troydon (Crestline) lives about 3 minutes away from our headquarters. He's a super nice guy and joins a lot of group rides from Transition HQ. Stoked to see this, and stoked for Blenki to be partnered with someone so genuine and into bikes! Troydon is a ripper and rides a LOT. Super rad to see...
I'm torn on this and don't have an opinion on whether this was a definitive DQ or not. If you disregard what's stated in the rulebook, and simply look at the action in question; If Angel had simply bunnyhopped at the moment he was running over the pole a lot of these pro-DQ arguments would be thrown out the window...

The new Sentinel is all that and more! There are some awesome reviews out on it already that go into great detail that are worth researching. I'll be respectful and not post here on Vital... It depends on the majority of the type of riding you plan to do. It's easy to overbike yourself for those few bike park trips...

I don't believe we have anything klunker related left to my knowledge. We actually purchased a Klunker back from a customer in the end of Feb to use in the Klunker wheelie contest we did at our tent in Sedona! - Lars

If this is in reference to the Sentinel - We have a +10mm Green light, so yeah give it a go! It will make the HTA & STA a little slacker and raise the bb a few mm for what it's worth. - Lars

Yeah we've been watering it for years, ha! We all loved the OG Scout, however the one thing we found is it could get overwhelmed in bigger terrain. We're fortunate enough to have a super diverse array of trails in Bellingham (they're also getting watered apparently) that it is fairly common to encounter a gnarly or rough trail on a...

The updated lev curve on both new Scout and Sentinel party really well with coil shocks. There are some known clearance incompatibilities notably Marz Bomber and Cane Creek DB (non in-line) that we're aware of. Push has already developed specific tunes for both bikes on their new shock, which isn't being offered on many other brands bikes yet. - Lars

That's a great question. Every once in a while one of us will have an opportunity to ride an other brands bike. But it is not something we seek out to test for development purposes. I doubt this is standard protocol with the rest of our peers. We just keep doing our thing! - Lars
