Bike looked like it was working so good. Loic was just standing still with the bike floating under him!

Nightmares are dreams too, they're covering all bases!

Hey dude, you’re supposed to be the focus of tech rumors, not the source.

Probably just the telemetry mount?

Looks Like SRAM offering some new Level brakes soon. If you Look closely, you can spot the new SRAM Eagle flattop Chain in the second Picture. Source - iamlukashoffmann (Instagram)

If I had to guess it's probably eeWings cranks for Ebikes. Eeewings?

Please take the gear/weight weenie discussion somewhere else, this is a rumors forum.

Looks like the cover is off. A distinct lack of side-profile photos and weird cropped photos.

I have the 11 speed XTR HG+ cassette on my SJEvo. The product was announced (allegedly at the request of sponsored Pros), a few samples were produced, then due to the factory fire they removed it as an option. A few of these cassettes float around out there. First Look: Shimano's New XTR is More Than Just 12-Speed - Pinkbike +it's actually 10-45 I see. It's basically the 12 speed, with the 1st gear removed. It's lighter but mainly I just don't waste time going in to a 1st gear I don't want. Because I wax my chains, frankly I...

Unfortunately not true. always take tension from the highest side. 95% of the time this will be drive side rear and disc side front. Some offset rims will make it even but in reality I have RARELY found them to be exactly even except for front non disc wheels. other side tension will be what it is. If you are at the correct tension on the tight side (rear drive, front disc) and your wheel is dished correctly (using a dishing gauge) then your less tighter side will be the correct tension. If you go the other way you will...

Doesn't matter which side. One side typically has shorter spokes which will have higher tension (due to a lower bracing angle) than the longer spokes. This is due to offset from a disc brake mount or freehub. Offset rims and different flange lengths could actually get you symmetrical spokes, in that case they would likely be very close or the same.

something on Richie rudes front brake? Seems like a normal Saint caliper but there’s a small black box

I'm an 11 speed guy and personally find the really low 50-52t gears counterproductive to forward progress no matter how steep the trail is. But then I only run 30T front chainrings on my 29ers, not 34s like Nino and the boys. I've had AXS since it was first released as a group set, and really it works amazingly well and took all sorts of abuse. It's on my wife's bike now. I only got burned once on a bike ride by a failing battery. That said, I went with X01 11 speed on my DC bike and knocked off...

Same. That was the only way you could get em to work! haha.

The FD'ers were pretty bad. At the shop I worked at in College, we would use the rotor trueing tool on the FD cages to bend and shape them to operate better.

Tell me you're a sram employee, without telling me you're a sram employee: "AXS reverb on 2 different bikes" Kidding aside, if sram didn't make that 1x push, shimano would have us all on 4 chainring setups right now. But let's also be honest that sram really did the 1x push because they couldn't make a well working ft der if their lives depended on it!

Sometimes I don't get the hate Sram receives. We are all arguably on better bikes and better drivetrains because of their push for 1x. One of my favorite bikes ever, the Kona Process 111 was able to be created because of 1x systems (Kona unapologetically designed it without the ability to run a FD). Color me a Sram fanboy if you'd like, but they aren't afraid to shake up the status quo with new innovations. I have AXS on my Spur and run the AXS reverb on 2 different bikes and absolutely love it. I can't wait to see the...

Nino still using the old shifter pod, or doesn't have spares of the new one? PotatoCam screenshot from his post of spares for Cape Epic
