Video with the Forbizzo/Reya "full details" allegedly at the 19th (march?)

Sounds more like tall riders are at a disadvantage riding wheels too small for them..

World ain’t fair. Get on with it.

I agree with you it's how many sports are regulated, but I also hope that isn't where downhill & xc are headed yet. Imagine if we were all still on 26 wheels with a 410mm size L reach with quick release wheels because that was the regulation from 20 years ago. Obviously there is a line, but I hope the governing body doesn't draw that line too soon. I hope there's a more open ruleset, for now, because of the innovation happening in the sport, even though we may not all agree on some of it (headset routing for example)...

Don't make @sspomer come yell at us again... Do we have a list of everything expected at Sea Otter this year?

Personally, I think it would be hella rad.

I mean a stick getting stuck in a wheel will also easily take out a metal spoke. Ive also gone on to do plenty of riding after breaking a spoke or 2

I've been riding them for a few seasons. Pretty great. I treat them like garbage and have not had any problems.

Headlines...and Olympic gold medals, and World Championships.

You know they work great!! They slowed Loic down enough that Jackson went flying by, unable to stop with his barely functional Shimano prototypes!!!

his glasses should have been a telling sign

Is there a dedicated thread for the "ebike question"

A Vital MTB Tech Rumors contributors and enjoyers meetup would be a secret society event I would be fired up to show up to. Somewhere like Whistler in the summer or an apres sea otter. It could be fully unofficial to uninvolve the legal teams of the vital overlords. We could make a partiful and t shirts. All would be merry. Core lords could flex. I would go.
