very tough crash ...could have gone a lot worse...very happy Taylor came out OK....the young pinners certainly are not built like a Gee or a Mik or a Brook and I would applaud seeing HANs devices and back protectors as mandatory for Junior racers...would be a real shame if any youngster had a life changing injury that could have prevented by protective gear....

My first thought was, oh no not another broken back! Good to hear that he's alright.

Jared is a fitness machine and one of the smoothest riders on earth - the fact that Fabien can still put 15 seconds into him is mind blowing. great recap.

That was a good read. I would like to know what his mechanical issues were to cause 24 hours of panic. Blown fork/shock? Broken derailleur hanger? Malfunctioning DOSS? I can't think of anything else that would cause 24 hours of panic. He wasn't one of my personal picks for the top three finishers, but I am stoked to see him there and not that surprised either. No doubt about it, Graves can ride a bike fast really freaking well.

Looking at the sketch - there appears to be yet another 'wheel diameter standard' applied. I predict that the 'slightly off circular, with a bit of a bump' 292627.7B standard will be the norm in 5 years (at least for front wheels as drawn)..

You're looking at it wrong. it's actually a cylindrical rear wheel. Perfect for grooming your pump track or casing the sh*t out of some else's jumps.

Patents are good in that they protect innovators, and five years of protection gives them time to profit. Once the patents expire new innovation can built on top of the original innovation without driving up costs. When I have to pay thirty people to use something they invented 20+ years ago before I can innovate then i will not even try. The only guys that can afford to try will be the big boys who have millions to spend. it reduces competition and therefore stifles innovation. Want an example: the electronics industry. That iphone would be $50 and be competing...

Copying actually stifles innovation in the long run, and in your proposed model shifts the balance of power to those already at the top (Giant, Trek, Specialized, etc... anyone with the capacity to copy and produce on a large scale at low cost and with substantial marketing force). Dave did not use any technology that isn't available to anyone else, but he did use that technology in a new and unique way at the time. The rest is just shrude business. The bike industry is a capitalist enterprise, not an open source bro fest. For those of you newer to...

End all patents and copyrights after five years with no renewal. Sorry Dave, but biking would be better if everyone could use technologies to make better gear.

When it says your headset is -1.5, does it mean you slackened your HA by 1.5˚?
