I saw the original post and read the comments, user stated it was a split belt. If you guys post insta screenshots make sure to include the username or hyperlink so people can take a look for themselves.

I’m just going to leave this right here.

Last year, for one of my engineering classes I did a simulation in Ansys titled “The influence of the axle diameter on the torsional stiffness in an USD bicycle fork”. It was an exercise more focused on Ansys, not on being scientific, but still the results were interesting. Here’s a link to the presentation . TLDR: 20mm was only 4% stiffer

There's a good thread already going on this topic. Basically that hub design/configuration has more impact on stiffness of an inverted fork than axle diameter. https://www.vitalmtb.com/forums/hub/enginerding-inverted-forks-and-fron…

I really appreciate the math. It’s funny when people act like they can’t feel the difference but i succinctly remember the “axel wars” and as a taller rider my riding absolutely reflected that 1.15mmwas a patent thing between the RS & FOX teams and actually ruined front ends handling for most riders when RS lost the war and caved to Shimano fox and 15qr. And 2. 20mm is superior and you can just feel it almost all the time . The older 20mm 29er forks that rock shox made were literally decades ahead in stiffness, to the new podium. So...

Let's just bring back the lefty

No Way.

Somehow, the orange looks even worse on the Podium

Having the visor go back that far on the helmet is a little weird, gives AI generated helmet vibes to me.

It kind of reminds me of the pachycephalosaurus

Great job, you invented Oakley 3’s
