6/7/2026 12:24am You are correct, thanks for making mention before I could catch up in this thread. On longer climbs I would take the chain off but most times I just wouldn't care to. The bigger problem was the chain length in my largest rear cog when using the lower guide, only a problem during climbing though. The system was great while descending. But I just run the ochain now instead of the lower guide because it's manages the chain whipping and is less faff.

6/7/2026 12:21am I was going to make a post about the core Lenz customer being a boomer suspicious of tubeless tires and dropper posts, but I thought better of it. Then I happened upon a boomer posting theirs with a rigid post. And I'm back because my soul is sour and withered.

6/7/2026 12:20am Sort of a tech rumour? Remy looks to be on an Avalanche damper in his latest video. We know Vorsprung is working on a new damper, and they had noted they’ve been testing all the other options (including Avy).

6/4/2026 2:17pm I miss external cable routing so much. Remember swapping rear brakes at a race in five minutes or less? Thank you, Norco. Hopefully others will follow.

6/3/2026 6:14am No kidding! I sold my Izzo and I’m not really sure why. I still haven’t found anything I want to replace it with.

6/3/2026 6:10am MaxxTerra High Roller 3 would be great for the e-bike crowd. Race tires are cool, but e-bike tires are (I’m guessing) what pays the bills.

It’s all about tacos.

5/25/2026 10:52am 3 dh bikes, 2 xc bikes, 3 aggressive steel hardtails, 4 enduro bikes, 1 fat bike, 1 road, 1 gravel, and 1 e-enduro. I still own 5 of them and will never sell 2 of them. The dh bike I hope to never sell and the other 2 aren’t safe LOL

5/25/2026 10:43am This is a great exercise and trip down memory lane. According to my count, I've owned 43 mountain bikes (where "bike" refers to a distinct frame, even if parts were moved over from the previous bike) and 66 bikes total (which includes road bikes, gravel bikes, BMX's, and my original kid bike when I was 5). Many of them were amazing, some of them sucked, but all of my bikes taught me things and took me places. Puts it into perspective how lucky I've been to have owned and ridden so many bikes. And out of those 42 mountain bikes...

5/24/2026 11:18am Uh, that's most bike buyers. The number of people that I've sold bikes to who don't care/know what the knobs do is... the majority. We do our best to educate, but I could see their eyes glaze over in the first 10 seconds. The number of customers who care about how suspension works is less than 5% in my experience.

5/22/2026 3:24pm What a thorough testing protocol! I'm on Avy front and rear and really pleased with the service and performance so will be sticking with it; but will acknowledge that I don't have the time & $ to test all of these options. Not many people do, so we have to rely on various online comparisons/ opinion/ reviews/ etc. Thanks for doing it!
