I've heard there is going to be a high end and base model TR11. Otherwise, haven't heard anything.

looks like frameworks already have a prototype for 32" to 29" conversion main frame in testing.

At some stage I’ve seen someone doing some mods mixing up t type and eagle shifters to make the eagle 90 click nicely like a x01 If I ever remember where I’ve seen it I’ll post it

Must we, every 3 months, have this same tired drivetrain discussion. You like what you like, I like what I like. No one cares. Start a new topic if you guys want to duke it out about how terrible the wireless world is. Back to the rumors: 30T ochains on more builds in the future from a few brands.

The gearing on the T-type cassettes has honestly been my favorite thing about it.

Clutch on the Eagle 90 has me intrigued plus the UDH. Traditional hangers bend so easily. Thanks for the tip. My two cents. Marginal gains are for professionals. Mere mortals benefit from gym, good diet, sleep, and riding your bike more not drivetrains that have batteries and cost a month of rent.

Move the jockey wheels three mm inward. You need a spacer.

don't know if this is the right place to post this but- i've had my eye on an orbea rallon for quite some time. I'm seeing the 2026 frame on sale, then again at full price except labeled at " 2027 frame" does anyone know if there is a difference? I've read that there are horrendously flexible at the rear end, including the custom bridge you guys probably saw from last WC then upon google searching Orbea says right there "stiff carbon frame" i remember them clearly saying last year it was "compliant" can anyone do a deep dive and...

I agree, make a 160 or 170/170 Patrol with a flip chip if you want a 29 rear.

Yeah Evil Following will be a 430 chainstay across the sizes. This way all the tall riders can proclaim how playful it is while the small riders get to feel what a balanced bike is like.

I’d agree that at this point the patrol and spire probably have no point in both existing, but I’d prefer if they marched them and kept the patrol name and ditched the spire for the sake of legacy. IMO the patrol was the springboard that has shaped the transition we know today.

From my experience (and same issue) with STFU, I can say that the thickness of zip-ties you use is crucial. Once I clamped both loops with the widest and thickest zip ties possible (which still go through their slots normally), I never had it failing again.

No, but we can imagine the Following will have the same mods the Offering had, some sponsored riders are already ripping what looks like a new insurgent and Wreckoning that look like they’ve got the full upgraded frame/geo But all can’t arrive soon enough
