True enough, and those who really want to send it on an eMTB are buying the Ransom e-ride anyway, which has an X2 and no twinloc.

9/6/2021 1:37pm Let's be honest with ourselves here, 70 percent of these bikes will never see dirt, 29 percent will be ridden off road but not to the point where the heat in the shock will effect damping, and one percent will get ridden to that point and complained about. As for the twin lock, I agree, it's very odd especially on...

Been loving how long these Raws are lately. 3-4 minutes just doesn't cut it. Mega thanks Lawlor!

my honest feedback is that it needs to be killed with fire before it can reproduce.

9/1/2021 7:03am I'm very, very curious about this. I was pretty much ready to cash out on an o-chain until I found out they have a rider weight limit of roughly 180 pounds. As for the Di2, from what I've heard on the road side, mechanical actuated stuff is being put out to pasture. There will not be a mechanical Dura Ace...

Way too much inside jokes and interrupting. I'm sure it's all great for people that follow them, but not really an "inside line" episode

These 3 don't do it for me. Maybe I have high expectations after 3+ years of very interesting VitalMTB podcats with spomer but this one is below the quality bar for me. The weird teenage banter, inside joke rambing combined with no structre and little insight from an athlete pov ... I switched off after 15min. Inside line and Needles show how it's done for WCs.

It's been said a million times, but Bruni's bike legit has some Ohlins hover suspension technology or something.

8/23/2021 2:11pm I would imagine. I've been running push on grips with a single inboard ODI lock ring collar for like 10 years now to do exactly that. Pair that with a bolt in style end plug and the grips go nowhere.

Every clip of Bulldog looked like he was punishing that track for just simply existing.

I cannot express how badly I do not want electronic suspension to be a thing.

8/6/2021 8:45am Maybe he stepped aside to let the up and comers have a chance instead of going to a race he doesn't feel ready for or something? My best guess. On a side note, stoked to see the local kid, Dylan Maples, get picked for the junior squad. Dumb fast and a super nice dude to boot.

8/2/2021 6:02am I'll wait to pass judgment on the Evil until the actual numbers are posted, but it looks fairly conservative geo. wise. I'm guessing the baller build spec will be in the realm of 5 digits, too. Those Shimano flats look incredible! The last XT flats were thick boat anchors. It sounds like they intend to have the outer sides of...

Thanks a bunch! 29-inch wheels are so stable I always wonder how I managed with 26-inch wheels, especially when you factor in how small bikes were as well. Definitely made for a looser ride back then though haha!

Hit it out of the park again! I also really dig hearing what these two think about these new fangled high pivot havin' 29ers after spending most of their racing careers on 26".
