Your left nut lives to fight another day.

Yeah, wireless brakes are gonna be a no for me, dawg

Cat 4 is we call this a gravity mtb but we will deny your warranty for riding it.

I drank my first Red Bull when I moved to Germany at 18 years old (it wasn't sold in Canada back then) and it might have been one of the most profoundly disappointing experiences of my life. Years of hype and sponsoring the coolest athletes and events, for it to taste like... carbonated medicine. lol

Don't worry everyone: I already had a meeting planned with @sspomer this afternoon, so I'll be sure to tell him on all of your behalf what a terrible person he is and how we're not mad, just disappointed.

When I started this thread years ago (under an old username that I got locked out of... Still bummed about that @sspomer ) I never would have imagined to surpass 100 pages, let alone a thousand! Since I started the thread as a senior in high school, I have gone from a shop rat with too much free time to an industry employee who is bound by NDA's. I've had to keep my mouth and keyboard quiet on a ton of subjects, some of which have been pretty accurate to the ideas tossed around! I hope someday bike companies will...

At this point in this big ol shit salad of a MTB industry, I'm happy to see any rider who puts it all on the line get a ride.

Old branding to try and hide the prototype? Use the new branding when they release the new fork? Wild guess on my part..

I'm currently doing a long term test of the Maven Base for Vital, after running the Maven Ultimate for a long time. I'm super impressed with the lever feel on the Maven Base. There's way more modulation and control compared to the Ultimate, which felt much more like an on/off switch and took a long time for me to get used to. I prefer the feel of the Base brake more, although it has less total stopping power. Could be just what you're looking for you want more power but don't want the on/off feel of the Ultimate. The Base...

Sorry for having fun

if anyone needs 2 hours to kill while traveling or avoiding political discussions at thanksgiving, ALL THE RAWS from 2025 world cup is below. I'll put together a #USDH specific vid soon too.

I think we all want to see a pic of Bruni's thighs but it might be for different reasons. A lot of people think that a hematoma is just like a big bruise but it's really not. Definitely not something to mess around with and Bruni likely made the right choice. Hope he can heal up and adjust to fatherhood to get back racing at top form next season, someone's got to keep Jackson on his toes.

Def not the lightest option out there. We wanted to offer a true enduro/dh level clipless pedal and ensure that it can live up to it's category. EFBE Tri-Test is a really grueling test and quite difficult to pass and sets the bar high!
