1/2/2019 8:46am Hey, I dont get asked about kinematics much apart from suspension tuners wanting the shim stacks. We always leave alot of room for tyre clearance as our country is incredibly wet, our mund very sticky. However there is no tyre standard I have a 2.35 from one brand that is bigger than a 2.8" tyre from another brand here. Its surprisingly frustrating.

12/27/2018 1:02pm Well, nobody is questioning the rim-tire interface of cars, yet, by driving over a rock, i managed to cut thr sidewalls of two tires at the end of this summer. For the primary intended purpose, i think the interface works quite well. I think it's a bit our fault for riding with no air over sharp rocks.

I have a long list of achievable things by 2020 (in the hands of intelligent hardworking people) but unfortunately they may realistically be 10-15 years out due to the ridiculous marketing development schedule because yay bike industry!!! Lets sell tiny incremental improvements because we can!!! whoooo!!!!!! We're so smart!!!! If we just package it slightly different but don't change anything fundamental these idiots will keep buying it!!!! So... 2020 goals still seem like a pipedream to me.... Anyway - Id like to see structural batteries (HEY E-BIKE ENGINEERS - LOOK - SOMEONE...

12/25/2018 3:23pm In my mind there is no reason why 45 or even 50mm seat tubes should not be a thing. With rear pivots and dropouts becoming ever wider each year, there is more space to fit in a wider seat tube. It's not like this would be a massive industry standard headache as shims could be easily manufactured and distributed. This...
