Ahhh... That makes sense. And congrats to her! That's awesome!

It relates to 6-bar and 7-bar link suspensions, sixfinity and sevenfinity for example.

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.

Is that split pivot ? And if so, could it be a new Wilson?

Allow me to pass out tin foil hats. One of these riders is an employee for Faction Bike Studio (Engineering house (MULTIPLE bike brands use their services)). What are the odds of both of them being employees? Being that they're QC based (relatively short driving distance to Highland) - could it be an eastern Canadian Brand (*cough* Devinci?), OR, Faction might just have a DH bike development in the works for an undisclosed brand (which seems more likely).

Spotted at Highland. Any ideas on what it is?

ENOUGH BK-LIFE-CHOICES TALK IN HERE.

Nice, been looking forward to riding that bike since I loved the range.

Norco should be in production soon.

Giant will stop manufacturing bicycles and shift all R&D and manufacturing to pickleball paddles.

Linkage forks will never work. They look stupid and can’t be made cheap or light. I’ve been drinking come at me haha

Spaniard here, love me some Dak. His insights on B-podcast play a big part of the World Cup season. For me he embodies the American Cool, the good things about the US. But I understand the criticism, he is indeed getting older for DH and perhaps doesnt have the dame appeal for young fans as other riders. still, I do hope he gets a good team, gets the elusive win and rides into the sunset with his girl and his dog.

I encourage you to have an opinion, I just think if you’re going to scrutinise the guy publicly you should atleast be accurate in your reasoning. I hope where ever he ends up it’s somewhere good, he is always the top of my list of guys I want to see win the race, intense would be a good outcome - he talks openly about how much he enjoyed that bike.

Look maybe you have a point but chatting shit about Dak on Vital is just such bad manners. We don’t do that here

First things first, It wasnt on a pit bike. Secondly you can get hurt doing anything in life.. that’s life. And thirdly if you’d listened to any of his pod casts last year you would have heard him speak about the meltdowns himself and discuss how he has grown as a person and doesn’t do this anymore. Before you criticise the guy atleast have a small understanding of what you’re criticising.

Plot twist.. His next bike might not have a stack that measures in the negatives..
