They don’t need a donation pool because the players already demanded one be created… NBA players receive between 49% and 51% of the league's "basketball-related income" (BRI). This percentage is guaranteed by the collective bargaining agreement and covers revenues from sources like TV deals, ticket sales, and merchandise. They also get comprehensive medical insurance funded by the league and players association for themselves and their families, both while they’re active in the league and after they retire. None of this was given freely to the athletes. These were demanded and fought for by the athletes through the players association and...

Well that math doesn't instill much confidence. 37mm must round up to 40mm...

Every shop rents DH wheels these days!

I'm tired of Cathros childish schtick at this stage. He has always done great analysis but all those stupid cutaway segments just seem foolish and boring. The dude is 37 now. It's a bit pathetic but I guess he does whatever Pinkbike tells him to do He'd be great commentating on races as the current crew seem to have difficulty spotting which riders are on different lines

I don't see a need for rear suspension on a gravel bike. At that point just get a mtn bike. I like my gravel bike for quick rides on mellow terrain or mixed terrain. It a different kind of work out more like road bike as far as cadence than a mtn bike.

No issues with waterproofing in mechanical systems. Odd how mechanical is still more precise, faster, and cheaper than electric but everyone needs “new tech.”

That’s all fake and not worth re posting here.

i deleted screenshots.

Like a ~2010 Diamondback.

Apparently there's a mtb world cup race this weekend - EDR Morillion namely - and this site doesn't even bother to at least post results (day 1 results to be exact), but more shocking are the entry numbers: about 120 elite men, 30 women, 23 male junior and 4 female juniors. Whoever said Enduro racing was alive and well ... is wrong. Oh, and there were 10 starters in E-EDR...

I'd hardly say the hardline thing was the nail in the coffin. If anything that was more so 'cringe' and just tasty troll bait for poking fun at him, for both fans and fellow riders alike. And it would be easy enough for him to roll with the punches. The nail in the coffin for me came a while ago, and I'm still blown away how it all worked out and is overlooked by this point 🤦‍♂️

Just a reminder that the actual conspiracy is SRAM selling heavily discounted electronic groupsets to component integrato... I mean "bike brands" knowing that consumers will be on the hook for their shitty, high margin proprietary batteries and chargers. Nothing says improving the environment and sustainability like planned obsolescence and more e-waste. Social Responsibility btw: https://www.sram.com/en/company/about/social-responsibility

After tax that 7000CAD is about the same as a World Cup DH win. I think the important thing is that Mille actually makes her salary from the "day job" at World Cups, and of course I imagine has a big bonus structure in her contract, where she probably get's $10,000+ bonus for a WC win from her sponsors/team. Whereas for a CWX race I can only imagine she may get a small or no bonus at all for a win. So it's certainly not a slap in the face. And on your final point, if you aren't regularly making...

It fits in the headtube of your fork, so it increases the stiffness 🙏

His results or lack there of have never been his fault in his eyes

The single review on the site is something to behold: " Blulans? Mor like BluAwesome! S11ULT a bit more expensive than a handful of bikes but this is carbon fiber and you know what that is to mean: top of the notches and the best buck bang on the market area. I have one in my dreams and in the garageway I are many reasons for superior performance. Firstly is one shock and then another shock. The response is overwhelming. For the number 2 reason is the Blulang legacy and industry leading excellence. If you are familiar with Role Royce...

If I had been in that meeting with you, I'd have suggested we remedy that last issue by rebranding the "Supercaliber" as the "Flash." Great name for an XC bike.
