32x19T (or 34x21 or 30x17) gives proper tension and it's a pretty reasonable gear for me. A "Magic Gear" is the gear ratio that works on a regular bike without the ability to adjust tension. Sometimes it's a little tight or a little loose, but this one worked out to be spot-on.
I’ll take that Yeti cooler bag, the ENVE air station and might as well through in a Patagonia wetsuit. Ok Done Christmas shopping for the wife and kids, where did i park my zombie green lambo?
Fair play, I don't remember writing this and it hasn't aged well. Pretty damn obvious observation upon rereading. I guess my inner fanboy got caught up in the hype.
Yeah, confusing. Why would you want a dual-coil 160mm travel enduro bike with snakeskin XC tires on it? Seems like you could put real tires with real sidewalls on that bike and still have a light bike. Or if you don't need real tires where you ride, maybe you can also get away with a shorter travel bike?
I fully support the UCI striving to raise as much money as they possibly can. How else are they supposed to fund a world champs for agoraphobics racing each other on their turbo trainers?
