And that's why some of us are bitching here, because an obvious rebranding is being sold as a hard worked development by two guys in a garage. Which, as someone said before, is a slap in the face of the guys that actually do make awesome stuff by themselves in a garage. Look at Pinion for example.

I meant to reply to my other post and wanted to say, that it was sad, that there is no more statement from TRW. But to be honest, that was to be expected. I have been designing MTB frames and suspension for a couple of years now. I´ve lived in Taiwan for almost two years. And I just find it unbelievably bold to make such a statement of having designed a complete groupset from scratch within a period of two years by basically a two man team? How little idea of the complexity of this product can you have, to...

Companies, rebranding existing cheap and non innovative stuff from other companies and then claiming it to be their own invention is an insult and a big slap in the face of all the guys in small companies, that really put a lot of sweat and blood and dedication into actually designing products to create something of their own. I am not saying, that this happened here, but it woud be great of you guys to back your claims and explain, where that undeniable similarity to those products off Aliexpress comes from. A complete groupset is not simply designed within two...

Sacki Added a comment about press release Introducing the World's Lightest 80mm Dropper - BikeYoke Divine SL

TRM Obi1 has not been shown on their website for quite some time. We´re checking our competitors regularly. Why the post is not on their website anymore, I don´t know, and I do not want to speculate. As mentioned before, the FRM´s weight is based on 27.2 diameter. Of course it is lighter. It has only 60mm of travel. If you want to use it in a 30.9 or 31.6 seatttube, you´d have to use shims, which weighs, as wel. We´ve designed the DIVINE SL with 80mm, because that is the result of many discussuions with teams, riders, manufacturers and...

I am sorry, but FRM Obi1 seatpost is not even available on FRM´s own website. Maybe you can tell me, why? Where can you buy it, or where can you find information about it, besides the old articles? Also the FRM weight is for 60mm drop and 27.2 diameter. DIVINE SL is 30.9 an 80mm drop. Quite a bit of a difference.

Sacki from BikeYoke here: Sorry, but this is not normal. What kind of clamp did you use? Hard anodizing can normally not come off from clamping in a regular work stand clamp at the very the first time. I am really curious. It would be cool to get some pictures of that.

I am sorry, but why son ranty? We never said, we were the first ones to do 34.9 droppers. But we are the first ones, to design them dedicatedly for 34.9 seattubes and with long travel. Other posts are basically just adapted smaller diameter versions. It is even clearly mentioned in our text. Not sure, why you blame us or Vital for not having done "our research". People in glass houses....
