Pole Bicycles Has Filed for Bankruptcy
@endurafrica: but nobody likes 5 multi coloured eyes, an arm sticking out your head, a winkie hanging out your cheek and 1 leg.

Pole Bicycles Has Filed for Bankruptcy
Shouldn't an innovator create something new but that offers a benefit to the way you do something or work? Outside of the Pole marketing spiel, I can't see any benefit at all in the way they've chosen to build their frames and what they've ended up with is something massively ugly which has been too expensive to produce for the volumes they sell. There is a lot to be said for a traditionally welded frame... it works.

First Ride: The Sub-$600 RockShox Domain and Psylo Forks
@gulogulointhearctic: Recon I think was the cheaper Revelation (trail fork, bolt-thru option etc). Don't think there was a cheap Pike?
As long as they don't bring back the Indy name we're all good (unless they also intend on bringing back elastomers and as much back/forth flex as up and down).

@iamamodel: and whether it was raining or not. Dry - full travel possible. Wet - lock out engaged.

Sonder Launches New Evol All-Mountain Bike
Like someone went on a creative writing course and was itching to use everything they've learnt.
What I took away from it is that its improved vs the old bike. Which is the right way... be odd reading a press release saying its worse than the old bike.

Saracen Announces New Ariel 30 Elite & Updates to Existing Range
Quite like the look of those and for the money they seem decent. Need some seriously good PR though as nearly everyone in the UK still associates Saracen with £200 POS bikes and I doubt barely considers one when wanting to drop £3k+ on a trail bike.

ebikes and proper bikes in the same race category? Anyone mind it I take a load of performance enhancing drugs too?

Forget Dropper Posts, Black Math Bike Created a Dropper Frame
That linkage/seatstay/top-tube thing must make it feel like you're riding a frame thats snapped in many places.

"if they amplify stoke of our internal team and athletes" - urgh.
SDG cowskin seats - get in! My original cowskin Ti railed Bel Air was on my old commuter bike when it was nicked. Going to get another now...
