So happy I banned myself from that other site. The overdramatic comments I was expecting when I scrolled down aren't here. Awesome.

I think this has nothing to do with health concerns and everything to do with vendors/sponsors not being able to make travel or delivery commitments. Couldn't they still hold the race and just push back the trade show?

So I designed this thing, a 205-220mm travel (currently at 215mm) Downhill bike. I've been riding it almost everyday since I was able to tune the suspension to my liking (ditched the harsh EXT for an X2). It performs very nicely as a downhill bike going down yet still climbs like any other efficient enduro bike can. Sure, enduro bikes have become more capable and are creeping up to downhill travel numbers but why don't bike companies just go all the way. They keep teasing us with slight increments every year. There must be a market for such bikes...

I'm with @gtbikes. The problem will ultimately be this, and hear me out. The trails will be flooded, at some point, with them. And that will mean folks who probably otherwise would not be on the trail nor probably should be on the trail will be there. That in and of itself isn't wrong, but most singletrack is multi purpose as it is and now, we will have folks just gliding along, not keeping momentum and clogging an already busy trail up. So, I guess if those folks on the ebikes can keep the pace, rather than just using pure...

So local bike shops have their already low margins squeezed and there is no price reduction or benefit to the consumer. Good for Trek. People are willing to buy bikes direct online because they are great value for money. If you are going to pay dealer prices anyway, part of the cost/experience is being able to demo the bikes and speak to real people about your purchase, and develop a relationship with your local shop (that will probably save you money on servicing and parts in the long term). Imagine if you are running a bike shop. Who is going...

The trilobial polygon interface was good enough for wwII tanks, and its good enough for me. It is pretty much the shit, i've had my LG1 off and on at least a hundred times and it still has an audible pop when the crank arm is pulled. It does require more material at the taper than a splined interface making the spindle heavier, but oh well.

A lot of dropper post remotes are terrible, and few can match the ergonomics of a front derailleur shifter. It would be hard to justify buying a new shifter just to cut it apart, but there are LOT of front derailleur shifters sitting around unused these days.
