selliott Added a reply to Would you rather have too much "Engineered Compliance" or not enough?
4/23/2026 12:59pm I chose too flexy but I'd imagine this has a lot to do with what your local trails are like. I destroyed a stans flow rear wheel on my Transition Sentinel and needed a replacement rim but decided to be cheap; I ended up throwing a 2014 Stans Arch Ex rim (21 mm internal width) on the rear wheel that...

4/7/2026 9:10am I don’t know I think yall are sleeping on the mismatched tires. I’m running an assegai in the front and a kryptotal in the rear (mainly for its wear characteristics). You can pry both from my cold dead hands. I’m loyal to whoever makes the best gear aesthetics be damned.

selliott Added a reply to One bike to do it all?
12/16/2025 7:47pm I’m currently rocking two bikes influenced by the bike shops I’ve worked in -2024 Trek Slash which sucks a lot of the time but I love getting myself in over my head and this thing has my back always -2025 Spec P3 that i bought and promptly smashed my face in on the next day I used to have just...

11/14/2025 8:01am This feeling connects with me on an emotional level. For me it was a tubeless wheel from before I worked at a bike shop. I used finish line fiber link sealant (just 1 bottle) and personally retaped it like 3x as well as letting my friend who already worked at the bike shop retape it and tell me it wouldn’t...
selliott Added a comment about product review Minion DHR II
11/7/2025 3:10pm Riding in SoCal like a few others and I’ve been liking the wear of the conti kryptotal. My only issue with it has been it feeling a bit more squared off than other tires. Not sure if anyone else has felt like this but I feel like leaning into corners it breaks traction when leaned over just a bit earlier than a dhr. But still for the wear life it’s my tire of choice in an enduro casing.

11/4/2025 12:57pm Has me thinking man…maybe that’ll be my next bike to hold me over until specialized releases a new enduro in 2035

11/4/2025 11:47am To echo what everyone’s said there’s not much these days that comes out that’s overly exciting. But there are still bikes that stick out in the last couple years that have made me very tempted to buy one. QC issues aside, the pivot Phoenix was an exciting bike launch to me because it was doing something pretty different that was...
selliott Added a reply to Alright, body armor. What is the best chest protector? (Also taking knee pad recommendations.)
7/30/2025 10:19am As far as knee pads for SoCal conditions, I’ve been using the tld stage knee pads and I’ve been super happy with them. I haven’t been unfortunate enough to try them out in any major slams but holy crap those things breathe well. They’re probably not the most protective out there and occasionally on especially hot and sweaty days they’ll...
