12/10/2025 4:59pm noticed on the press release for the new limited editionYT tues, looks like a 20mm variant of industry nine's 1/1. No 20mm options on i9's configurator currently, I believe the bearings they already run have space for a 20mm axle, i9 just hasn't ever made the endcaps. Maybe YT got them to spin up a batch for these builds, maybe...

Quick question @sspomer not that I want to delve into vitalmtb's business here... but is thread qty important to vitals business/website and a contributing factor to this? I think all of us would agree that this website/community is important to us... so if there are things that need to change or things we're doing that are impacting the site's success, we would want to play by a rule set that facilitates that. Otherwise, if there is a way to have annual, or monthly tech rumors threads and that cuts down on resource consumption, and still achieves the business goals/metrics for...

In honor of the 1000th page, we should vote on the best meme of 2025: 👍🏻 for “Crab” 👎🏻 for “6-7” edit: Carcinization is the antithesis of innovation. Maybe we should keep crab talk on the crab talk forum and keep this thread focused on MTB tech rumors and/or innovation.

I still run X01 (aside from cranks and rings) on all my bikes. I've run these little guys in all my derailleurs for some time. Reasonably price and definitely better than the plastic POS if you keep a bike for a long time. Recommend buying black ones, putting the writing towards the bike, doing a modified hall lock, and being friends with the people who notice.

11/11/2025 8:40pm just to clear it up, JKW killed his first podium due to user error, loading 2 bikes on a rack such that the pedal of one was rubbing the podium stanchion. It sounds like the replacement one is also leaking now, thus he's back on a Z1 for the time being. fwiw, my podium hasn't had any issues with oil...

10/20/2025 6:10pm idk if this has been spotted elsewhere already and I missed it, but it looks like Kona has a new dh bike? From the new Caleb Holonko edit, thought it might just be a process 153 but the seattube here definitely isn't anything on their site. Looks sick with the og kona logo
