Mud spikes and bike packing, what a combo

I've heard about that. It's Enduro that's willing to give up its right to vote in order to disappear and be protected from the horrors happening to other racing genres. Right?

Hope HB.912 Hope’s new HB.912 trail bike looks awfully sleek. 120mm rear wheel travel, 130mm fork, four-bar linkage, and in-house-made frame. Definitely one of those bikes that can fly under the radar, but the longer you look at it, the more you appreciate it. The bike should be available closer to summer, with the frameset starting at ~$5,400 USD.

Galfer Shark EVO Galfer’s Shark EVO 2-piece rotors feature a unique look and are available in black or Kashima. Galfer actually sends the aluminum core of the rotors to Japan to have them finished, and then they’re sent back to have the braking track attached. The rotors are said to make your suspension perform smoother.

If only someone made a linkage that allowed a longer shock to to be run on the Levo and it yielded 170 mm of travel. That would be wild.

I will be stocking up of clutched shimano's if they ever try to do something stupid like removing the proven shimano clutch.

Drumroll…there won’t be a clutch no more. Just the double spring bs.

I'm sure we can work that out. That is where our engineer works from and I'm sure he'd be keen to.

I've always though Cushcore was missing a good April 1 jab with green trash cans. Or honestly as a real promo most shops would take a green trash bin. #realorfake

If you draw a free body diagram you’ll find that the forces are the same for a given A2C length. Stiffness doesn’t change forces applied. Dual crown rated mostly means that it won’t instantly be destroyed if a fork bumper hits the side of the frame.

Tbh I don’t get what the hang up is regarding dual crown comparability. I think that’s more of legal dept. jargon vs its actual capability. Toss a 40 on that hoss and don’t look back. If a frame can take a pro-level rider and a zeb, there’s zero reason it can’t take a dual crown.

New Epic 9 will be crazy light in S Works guise. No 32", no swat box. Very racy--Not sure about trims and rollout availability. Product cycle on the Epic 8 (spring 2024) does seem a little short. Perhaps they decided to release early based on 32" future XC bikes?

No I can't handle all this Avinox garbage and a mainstream bike going to 32" in such close succession. Make it stop.

I’m pretty sure the guy that has the I-track patent lets anyone use it as long as they put a sticker on the bike. What is bullshit about that? Genuinely curious.
