9/2/2023 3:31pm Or, and hear me out here, this might be tough for some to hear, our own individual experiences do not define those of others. None of us ride the same trails, on the same bikes, in the same style, at the same speeds. What works for one, might not work for others, and our individual experiences are proof of nothing other than our own experiences, and even those are full of bias cause we all think we are doing/making the best decisions for ourselves. We could all do with taking a step back every now and then when telling others...

9/1/2023 8:08am You mean it's hard to imagine that the brand that just released an e-hybrid marketed towards urban commuters is trying to make e-bikes seem more ubiquitous and stand out less? I think that's pretty easy to imagine. Don't let their 'mountain bike core' image fool you.

8/31/2023 6:18am Having a bike with cable tourism is bad enough. Having a written reminder of where the cables could be run is just rubbing salt in the wounds.

7/19/2023 2:14pm On sikmik83 's instagram you can see that Yeti already has addressed that chain slap between the little roller and the crank with a plastic cover over the chain.

6/13/2023 12:20pm Loris' mechanic said in the Vital Pit Bits from Lenzerheide when asked about the Pirellis: "It's good, still need a bit more improvement to be ready to win races but... the guys want to have tires that win races." Kind of a crazy admission from someone on the team payroll.

Malky79 Liked a reply to forum topic What Did You Think of the New World Cup DH Race Format?
6/12/2023 5:47am I think the new format only serves towards Chris Ball's vision of making downhill like F1, focused on elite teams and riders only. The polo shirt and chino wearing presenters and the laboured camera shots of team managers are part of this. By introducing a semi final, it now takes about 5.5 hours to watch mens and womens semis and finals, which even as a hardcore racing fan, I felt was too long. Most people, particularly those new to the sport are going to end up watching the finals only, meaning a lot of unprotected riders are going to miss...

5/25/2023 9:24am I guess I look at this thread where people from all around the world bring/come to find info on new and interesting mtb related things. more like “Hey, look at what’s going on over at BikeRumour! rather than, “why isn’t anyone talking about this thing I think should be talked about…” like we all play a part in the success of this thread, not a condemnation of missed opportunities. Apologies if my responses were offside, waiting for the coffee to kick in!

4/20/2023 5:14am I just went through and watched all the guys instagram videos again and missed the part where 5dev were aware of the likelihood of failure. They acknowledged it broke and offered TWO pairs of their stronger freeride cranks or a full refund (which I’d take over a formal apology any day). Was pretty clear the guy posting was a troll from the get go when he responded to their initial message of “how can we help” with “bruh” and a face palm emoji… unfortunate that he got a defective crank but he’s got enough whine it makes me wanna prep...

4/20/2023 5:13am What was wrong with how 5dev dealt with that guy? They offered him a refund or new set. He just kept bitching. Literally nothing else you can do lol.

4/20/2023 5:10am Yeah, it's a real shame Cam went straight to socials before the situation was resolved. Especially for someone in the trade. It's shit his crank snapped but he should have been handled in private first. Now he looks like a bit a of dick too. 5Dev were on the backfoot from the start and thats a shitty position to put someone in.

4/3/2023 1:35pm Not to mention that they're largely advertising in 'action sports,' like MTB, F1, supercross, etc., that are largely popular with men, e.g. primary porn consumption audience.
yahmon Added a reply to Lew Buchanan Banned from UCI Racing Because of OnlyFans Sponsorship
4/3/2023 11:18am I have my doubts that they're really trying to change it into anything other than a porn website. There's so much association of "OnlyFans" with porn that it might be an unshakable reputation. Think of the skepticism you would receive while explaining to your boss that the OF pages in your browser history, or to your spouse that the OF...
