You can read on the diagram the 3 curves on the "Evo Mule concept" with 190mm read travel, beside the Slayer and altitude curves.

Some interesting stuff hanging on the wall. Likely the new Altitude on the far right which lines up with the previous (now private) video. Beside it are what looks like the current Instinct / Altitude frame with a penalty box. Perhaps the Instinct and Altitude will have different frames, or it could be a new Element? Then the blue frame with a seat stay brace and what looks like a shock tunnel matching the aluminum mule with a dual crown.

Seems like their mule could use different "main" pivots; one for an idler and one without (and you can see the resulting differences in motion ratio in the graph, with the idler system having slightly lower leverage in the first half of travel and a barely more progressive end behavior). Probably a solid chance we'll see the 'production concept' within a year or two.
You can also see an aluminum e-bike frame elsewhere in the video as well:
This same YouTuber also recently did a tour of the Norco headquarters here...here's the best look at what I think is probably an upcoming 'mid-pivot' e-bike, or at least a prototype of one.

interesting bottle placement, looks like a horizontally mounted shock..

It's a little harder to make out since it's upside down and from the non-drive side, but to me it looks like the lower pivot (when right side up) has been raised above the chainring, judging by the elevation of the chainstays relative to the BB. Sure looks like a successor to me.
Hope it's not just a longer stroke Foxy with an angel set.

Not the Superfoxy but on their bike comparison you can already see their new e-bike replacing possibly the Dusk or Crafty with Shimano 801 motor and the similar trough the seatpost lower link which they first featured on the NEAT. There is also a kids bike on there at the moment similar frame to NEAT and new Podium
Pretty sure its going to be the exact same as the current onyx just stiffer and thick stanctions

Think I read somewhere that they were getting rid of the OTT? Could be wrong but from personal experience that would make them work a lot better for lighter riders, and also hopefully improve reliability too. Also @Jakub_G they look completely different to any of Suntour's offerings, its only the DVO shocks that share parts with some Suntour stuff as far as I am aware?

The D1 model will have the OTT coil. There's going to be an SL upgrade option which removes the OTT but adds an air chamber.

There’s still a lot of models and sizes in stock on their blowout sale…. Guessing they are still sitting on too much stock to release new models if they’re even ready.
When’s a new ripmo coming out?
Soon

Fox +2022 crowns got 4 mm higher. This one looks differently. More like ext.
I'd assume we'd see a new Ripley at the same time.....no?

Any pics of the upcoming Optic/Sight?
Same shock placement as the current Sight VLT.

I have the current Range VLT, that pivot is miles higher. Also it doesn't look like a shimano motor to me.
Any talk on when and what the new Mondraker Superfoxy update will be??
Hope it's not just a longer stroke Foxy with an angel set.

Not sure if this has been discussed, but DVO has a new 38mm stanchion Onyx coming out soon.
Pretty sure its going to be the exact same as the current onyx just stiffer and thick stanctions
Just like a durolux 38
new metal kona process X

was this lapierre posted in here yet? from chatel
Yep, dropper (in)compatibility debate ensued few pages back.
ahh. thanks @Jakub_G
They teased it at Sea Otter this last year in both a gray lower that I think looks pretty sweet, and the standard black.

Come on, tell us more? Which month? Any closer info?

Ahh that's it, I'd be interested to see how they use the secondary air chamber compared to Manitou and Ohlins, etc
It's a self-equalizing positive/negative with a dimple like Fox, RS, etc.
