I love that it's Neko Mulally doing this. Nobody else would get out alive.

Orbea updated the Occam and Occam LT to include cable ports. https://www.orbea.com/us-en/bicycles/mountain/occam/?sfid=0012p00004HYc…

any day is a good reason for intend to launch 4 new forks in a day

sometimes.

It has color matching properties.

Any kind of venting of the fork lowers will be an utter pain as you can't just have it open. You need a way to keep the oil in. And that's very hard to do when it's so easy to flip the bike upside down and let it sit that way for prolonged periods of time...

I know I'm a bit late to the party, but I want a podium just to slap on a set of these and relive my 2002 childhood dreams

Can we move this to the suspension thread please

I'm at Leogang this weekend and wanted to get a sense of how widely pedal kickback devices have been adopted by World Cuppers, along with all the other wild accessories like TMD's/shakeweights, electronics, gearboxes, and more. So out of curiosity and as a service to my fellow nerds, I stood at the top of Q1 today and counted all the devices I could. Note that certain devices were almost certainly undercounted, like shakeweights, added mass, and fancy chainring devices like Ochain or Rimpact (drivetrains were facing away from me in the starting lineup). There were 20 bikes total where I...

That website looks like it's from 1996, and screams scam to me.

They're just copying srams retarded decision to tuck the hoses up against the bars as though we're all roadies that are going to integrate them into our bars and headsets. I thought we'd effectively communicated to manufacturers that we didn't want that shit but Shimano is late to the party and has misread their customers once again. So now we get more cable rub and noise from both the major brands, unless you're a weirdo who buys Scott I guess. Gives everyone else a little more motivation to explore other options.

I think it's Sixfinity, there's a lower link that rotates too so not a pivot on the front triangle. If Yeti did a run of regular bikes 150 to 170mm travel with that suspension I'd definitely be interested.

This is a very elegant solution and makes perfect sense in the economics of product development.

please don't respond about geo to this (or even respond at all), but just FYI, you can easily compare bikes and their geo in our product guide. here's a quick one i put together between a dreadnaught, firebird and sb165 - new bikes are being added all the time. https://www.vitalmtb.com/product/compare/64471,64876,50471?sizes%5B%5D=…

That rear brake mount can go fuck itself though.

Not really a tech rumour but a tech wish: since we’ve somewhat stabilized on geo development and are looking at new ways to innovate, can companies put more effort into silencing bikes? It’s kind of embarrassing that a $10k bike sounds like a shopping cart.

I wasn’t going to post this, but you’ve provoked me. Ben Horowitz wrote a book years ago called The Hard Thing About Hard Things. In it, he talks about his time as a CEO in the early 2000s, and how brutal the job can be. One thing that sticks out is how often people walk into a C-suite role with a prebuilt narrative in their heads. They assume there will be a well-rounded team, a healthy bank account, a working business, and a highly defensible product. That version of the story almost never plays out unless you’re stepping into a...

not gonna lie they look slick like this arch more than the round one on the previous gen but it might just be new and shiny syndrome
