Dude the ACROSS headset lasted like 3 rides for me. Imagine, 3 rides and you have to disconnect, brake, transmission, seatpost

It’s not even a big problem for future Commencal owners, because majority of bikes will end up in bike shops with cracked frame warrantys before the headset dies. And then the bikeshop will have to deal with headset cable routing and bearing replacement.

That's the joke... the headset mafia has Commencal in their grips, and soon they will have taken over the entire industry. They will soon be paying off small steel frame manufacturers

Sorry, but who is paying Commencal to use headset cable routing? Big headset? Local bike shops to charge more for servicing? Total garbage lol. Its done for looks to the average joe, and its cheaper production.

Seems for the Tempo (sorry, T.E.M.P.O.) they had "standard" routing on prototypes, and then switched to headset routing for production. Really shows that they don't HAVE to do it, but they're *definitely* being paid to do it.

It's strange, I've seen some with routing through the frame and some with headset routing, I wonder if they're going to offer both?

Whiteboard looks like... "Primer Mule" "HP6" with a bunch of things below it with check marks "Tazer Recon?" "Tazer Alloy" "Tazer SL?" maybe SL not sure on that. On line looks like it might say "DJ Project" Then some other numbers that aren't really legible

The test bikes are always out with the media. The best way to give one a spin is to buy one, I hope to start offering complete builds soon for locals.

Thanks for following! A few bikes have made it to Europe already. I think they've used freight forwarding servicesto get them.

At 6'0", I can run a 240mm dropper. Though I've found it's overkill, it drops me into such a low squat that it's hard to get back up. I've settled on 210mm, people over 6'3" have liked 240mm

One thing worth noting imo is the straight seat tube that allows the biggie droppers. Nice looking rig!!

I’ll be at Sea Otter in booth B99. I won’t be offering demos because 1) the riding there ain’t all that 2) supply is outweighing demand, if I had a demo fleet, there would be no bikes remaining for people to buy 3) I don’t think I have the bandwidth to talk the talk to the 75,000 attendees, let alone set people up on bikes.

TEAMROBOT Added a reply to John Hall (Gwin's Mechanic) on Spoke Tension
4/7/2023 12:55pm Hey Primoz, I've given this a lot of thought since I first encountered the "hub hangs from the spokes" argument, and I respectfully disagree. If the hub was only hanging from the top spokes, that would mean that the structural integrity of the bottom of the wheel would only be provided by the rim. Simply put, rims aren't that strong...

The new chainring is compatible with the old chain, It even says ob it: T-Type or Eagle chain only. Whereas the other components say: T-Type only
