@sspomer I totally get your decision from a web resourcing point of view. Things get really expensive really quick when you need to tack on more power. A lot of cloud hosting providers price exponentially instead of linearly. That being said, I think not pinning a v2 and keeping this way of chatting about rumors is a mistake. This thread works because it allows for banter along side rumors I wouldn't ever care about. Prime example is the Santa Cruz Vala, a bike I have negative interest in. However that did prompt the carcinization of bike suspension discussion (that prompted...

As someone who just doesn’t have the time to scroll through the front page of the Hub for new and interesting posts/threads all the time, I can’t say I’m overly excited about this decision. I really liked having the most interesting topic all neatly packed up into one single thread, which I could follow and catch up with the discussion every once in a while. Won’t be as easy and convenient for me to follow under the new format.

Following a single thread was very convenient. Probably why this thread was so successful. Can we just start a single new thread - tech rumors 2025 or whatever?

I for one am tired of all of these fancy suspension designs. when will a company invent a frame without rear suspension? no more pesky bearing service or arguments about chain growth. True progress!

$5 on Gamux x Manitou if Reece stays with those partners. Seems like they're hellbent on trying everything. The thigh-grippers/femoral artery shredder device will need redesigned to fit those 32" wheels though

To celebrate making it to 1000 pages in the Tech Rumors thread, here's some news about the one "innovation" no one asked for: The UCI just communicated that they will allow 32" wheels for use in XC mountainbike competition for the 2026 season. Though they very specifically stated only the 2026 season, so here's to hoping they will come to their senses for 2027 and beyond. For the 2026 season this will probably mean lots of frankenstein'd 32" prototypes at the races.

Greeting people with "what's up assholes?" in videos is not poor attitudes. Leave Unc alone, he's honest and he works hard to spread the good word of long rear centres.
