MRP Releases Ramp Control Cartridges for Fox 38 and RockShox Zeb Forks
Bought one of these for my 2012 Boxxer WC (yeah I'm broke and ride old kit). Biggest change I noticed was that the fork became more sensitive to small bumps, likely since the effective volume of air is larger at low speed. Cheap upgrade, definitely worth the price

Mossy Cog Designs Announces the Tight Stack Bike Rack
@woofer2609: Because the majority of consumers of media are American. Even if there is a Canadian production company making a story in a Canadian city, they are likely to make it an American story in a facsimile of an American city so that they can draw in a larger audience. I get the frustration (there's a great Youtube video called "Vancouver never plays itself" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojm74VGsZBU), but Americans don't seem to really care about Canada and don't seem very interested in stories that take place here.
That's just my opinion of course

Interview: Brandon Semenuk Signs With Team MIPS
Reminds me of Football. The helmets are so good now that linesmen routinely use their heads as a battering ram, something that didn't exist when thinner helmets were in use, and is likely a large contributor to the prevalence of CTE in football. The equipment unlocked a capacity to harm yourself in a different way, and the damage was so cumulative we didn't notice until YEARS after it should have been obvious.

Specialized Launches $999 Carbon Hotwalk for Toddlers
@TimTucker: Fair enough, if that's the case then Specialized can go jump off a bridge on this one.

Specialized Launches $999 Carbon Hotwalk for Toddlers
@TimRidesBikes: In fairness, that's because Specialized paid for the molds and R&D, and a lot of these cheaper bikes are likely 3rd shift and/or QA fails from Specialized, so I'd expect more imperfections and issues.
HOWEVER, $1000 for a toddler bike is just hilarious and pure flex. Specialized definitely knows their market.

Pinkbike Poll: Would You Rather...?
Considering I still ride a 2011 TR450 every chance I get, I can say with confidence that bikes from that era weren't too bad
