I'm sorry, but all of their issues do make them sound exactly like rubes. Managing to pop out a piston while doing piston massage? If you're doing what you're supposed to (leave pads in, insert thin side of pad spacer, advance pistons until pads hit the spacer, hold, flip the pad spacer to use thick side to force them back, repeat), that's not even physically possible. Like, there's not enough space for the piston to come out. The problem with a lot of reviewers and even bike shop mechanics is that they assume that because something looks similar to something...

Correct terms… please. We must be proper

Ring? That's a video about a dude who can't align his caliper properly and has some serious issues with his bike otherwise too. But, my sharks are flawless no "ringing".

Pedalling wise it's a 6 bar. Braking wise it's an 8 bar. There are 2 bars connecting the main triangle and the rear axle. Rear axle path is defined by a 6bar linkage. 6+2 defines the movement/rotation of the brake link. This is the exact reason why split pivots are single pivot pedalling wise but 4 bar braking wise.

I hate how much free throw is in my Trickstuff Maximas despite them being bled perfectly. After reading this and other threads it seems that's just how they are. But I refuse to accept that I couldn't get an adjustable bite point for my overpriced anchors. By half accident I bumped into a guy who had the infamous Lewis LH4's on his bike and convinced him to lend me his front brake for a bit of testing. To no suprise the lever blade of the lh4 is a near identical copy of the Direttissima lever. Just a tad bit longer...

Correct. I helped lay out the new tune names etc. We had the issue where a M tune on a Super Deluxe did not match the M tune on a Deluxe and that did not match the M tune on VIVID... Also- we had a shock with extra L1, L2, L3 and L4 tunes (in addition to normal L, M and H), they were not spaced evenly and no one could remember if L1 was lighter or heavier than a L2 tune. So we went to numbers that meant something on the dyno. We wanted OEMs to be able to...

Not to mention the lack of information on shocks, shock tunes, suspension kinematics, etc. Hard to make a change if you don't know where you are, where you're going, or how to get there.
