First Look: The Raaw Jibb V2 is More Versatile with 130mm or 141mm Travel

Looks nice but 2.8k € for an aluminium frame made in asia is too expensive, I can get a made in germany Nicolai for the same price

Ronja Blöchlinger to Miss Opening Rounds of the 2024 XC World Cup Series

Hope she recovers fast! On another note, why is there no article about one of the fastest DH racers of the last years being kicked by Canyon before the season even started? Come on Pinkbike, you are a news site

Review: SRAM's New Maven Brakes - The Big Brake

@cougar797: Power is proportional to torque and therefore proportional to rotor diameter. I don't know how the editor comes to the conclusion, that each jump has the same relative change in mechanical advantage. It's just basic maths. A jump in radius from 100 to 110 is a 10% increase in mechanical advantage, a jump from 90mm to 100mm is a ~11,1% increase and so on. @bro-LanDog yeah, the comment section is always up for a surprise haha

Review: SRAM's New Maven Brakes - The Big Brake

How big is the lever piston? still 9.5mm? I think that would make them the brakes with the biggest hydraulic leverage on the market.

Review: SRAM's New Maven Brakes - The Big Brake

" sport mineral oil as the hydraulic of choice. The explanation behind the change is fairly simple: they found it was the better of the two options when it came to achieving the performance and durability they were looking for in their strongest brake yet." it's just because the market wants a mineral oil brake because many people are scared of DOT 5.1, it is not better apart from not being a paint stripper. "Each jump in rotor size (i.e. 180 to 200mm) increases the mechanical advantage by 14%" Wrong, scaling up from 200mm to 220mm for example is an increase of 10%.

Rachel Pageau is OnlyFans' Latest Sponsored Mountain Biker

It's pinkbike, so nothing new they ban people for ridiculous reasons. The comment section about trans women was a mess as well
