Well......little anecdote; Crankworx Austria, 2019.....and I should preface I am the brand director for Troy Lee Designs.....we went to Austria for the event and Troy (Lee) was going to be in our booth painting helmets, buy a helmet from the local dealer and get your name painted on the back. Well, Troy had his little paint kit on the flight, but it got stolen in the airport. So he asked me to run to a paint shop in Innsbruck and buy certain brushes, and paints. I ran all over town, not knowing jack shit about paint or brushes. I bought...

you do realize, at this level, the bike probably has the least amount of correlation to success. Team dynamics, luck, and skill are much more important than the physical bike. All of these bikes/components are comparable.

That's an awfully generous assessment of Kenda tires.

Hopefully they'll let him sharpie out tire labels. I feel like a good rider could adapt and make most any setup work but tires will always have a ceiling of performance and it really looks like Kenda's ceiling is the ground floor of Maxxis.

Bursting into flames in a skin suit to end the movie, by far my greatest accomplishment on a bike.

The 27" Phoenix had that issue for sure, as far as I'm aware it was said the 29er fixed that problem. But did it? Plus, the too much force, as far as I'm aware, it was flexing too much and a coil shock would be snapped off. The larger shaft diameters and interfaces (the aircan and all...) make air shock handle loads better. That's how I remember it at least.

More and more bikes are coming specced with coils these days, and a lot are being designed around them. Some brands (Norco) even say that the bike shouldn't be run with an air shock. In my personal experience, I've found that bikes tend to come with with springs that are too light for the size. This could have to do with me being a dense boi, and brands wanting to make the bike approachable for less experienced riders. Or if you want to be cynical about it, it might be to make the bikes feel super plush in the store...

When I picked up my Smash at the HQ back in Sept. I was chatting with Dustin for a bit and he indicated that they'd been working on Revved seat/chain stays for the other models. So maybe Smash, Mega Trail, Gnarvana are finally going full revved like the Trailpistol?

Macpherson is properly designed and tested, unlike the abomination that is the cycling industry!
