All 3 commencal women have looked dialed in the weird ruts where most others have looked awkward. Gracey also just came by gloveless, sleeves rolled up, blasting “talk dirty to me” on her phone and ripping the shit out of it.

It is kinda bogus that you get disqualified and get no points. Especially in the case of something like Lachie who had no idea he missed a pole, or when asa crashed real hard this year and probably had no idea which pole he missed and needed to hike back up to and got 0 points. Those 31 points he would have got for last place would be pretty huge rn. This happened to Finn toon I think if you finish the course you should at least get 30th place points. If multiple people miss poles give them all 30th...

I made these spreadsheets to compare. It's only 2D not 3D so we can't compare all the permutations depending on Amaury's performance, but there are 3 basic sheets: AV vs JW, AV vs AP, and AP vs JW. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17BtOlT4lYjbgaYc-gpQUiFYZWUtZ10f…

The drool level is off the charts with this one. Rick Schubert snagged some pics of this proto Chromag steel-front-triangle freeride beauty during the World Cup in Whistler. Simple, clean and quite the juxtaposition with the pairing of the garage-made welding vibe and high-tech wireless SRAM XX DH drivetrain.

First glimpse of Dan Booker testing a drop under the watchful eyes of Finn Iles. Looks epic (and scary)!

ey, we’ve finally got aluminum brake levers for you guys now 🙄😉 The Shimano brake master would probably move too little oil for our latest calipers and we haven´t tested it. And we won´t. ( We generally strongly advise against such combinations. Neither we nor others can guarantee their safe and reliable function. Such combinations have never undergone any official testing or validation.)

Dude, if you're doing 2-3 batteries in a day? Jeebus, Mary and Joseph! Impressive! We've talked about doing something like that. Strategically placing batteries (or even chargers), for the super epic rides. Turns out we're just downhillers at heart and just blast trails, rinse and repeat. We've already done the long epic trails on the regular bikes, long time ago. Now, with families, we can just ride locally, until our hearts are content, and be back in time for late lunch. Awe yeah....

I've taken all the advice here and raised the pressure a few pounds from what I ran on my Assegei and DHR. I took the bike out last night with 30 in the front, and 32 in the rear. It absolutely ripped. It felt like less rolling resistance while also MORE grip. The grip-off-jump issue was lessened but not eliminated. I'll have to experiment with other casings, or compounds / tires, as others have suggested in the comments. Thanks all, for setting me on the best path.

For the most part, batteries are 1-1.2lbs per 100wh and that rings true for the bosch lineup. The 800wh is 2.1lbs heavier and the range extender is 3.3lbs heavier... again, in line with the 1-1.2lbs per 100wh. Since the 600+250 is 850wh and the 800wh is both less wh and less packaging, it's going to weigh less. We also have steep (and long) climbs where I ride and as mentioned I do a lot of big days on the bike. 8k of elevation gain is a glass ceiling with ebikes atm from my perspective. There is no drive unit on...

How about we design a mount where a Dewalt power tool battery can slide in as a range extender?

I have a 600wh in frame battery with a 250w range extender on my bike, which makes 750w of max power. I have zero issues soft pedaling my way into 4,500' elevation gain rides in boost mode. I also do plenty of epic 7,500' elevation gain rides in mid power modes on this bike. Lamenting 600wh internal frame batteries is quite frankly lame and imo based on a desire for more power then is necessary or laziness. 200wh doesn't make or break any rides I want to do and 3lbs of weight on the bike not up high is a...

Top-seeded rider Aletha Ostgaard is 18 years old, and this will be her 5th time racing at the US Open. Here's how she's done in previous years at the US Open: 2025 - (17 years old): 1st place 2024 - (16): 2nd 2023 - (15): 2nd 2022 - (14): 3rd [Nina Hoffmann won each US Open from 2022 to 2024. She didn't race in 2025 and isn't racing this year.]

The threesome I never knew I wanted! Scrubbing under the other rider to land first is unbelievable commitment on both riders.
