Pinarello Releases New Dogma XC Hardtail
When a pure MTB company makes a gravel bike, it might not work out that well. But, here we have a 100% road focussed company and well, what does that look like?

Opinion: Why Weight Doesn't Matter
Just get that Alloy frame from Transition or better from Santa Cruz, those will take good care of adding more than a little weight.

Meet The All New Transition Smuggler
The old Smuggler, especially the 2nd version was a groundbreaking bike to me. It had tons of quirks: Alloy was heavy af, suspension super linear, small tire clearance, dent in the seat tube limiting dropper posts... but it rode superb and believe it or not: you could get the frame for almost cheap. To me, that made it the rider's bike par excellence.
New Transition rivals Yeti and others in pricing. I think they could drop their funky marketing as being the grass roots company with the NX Alloy coming in at 5000. That is a lot of money and almost double of a Spectral 125 which is better equipped. Sad to see in a way.

Opinion: The Rules of Mountain Biking
Ebikess = Trail Viagra!
There should be more love on the trails, less performance. Just doing something longer/faster doesn't make it better.

Staff Ride: Brian's '10 Year' RAAW Madonna V2 Project Bike
Cool project. 10 years is like many lifetimes in the world of actions sports.
Just @brianpark: didn't you just do an E-bike commercial? To me, E-bikes are the epitome of disposability.

Former Bike Mag Staff Launch New 'Beta' Title
Better some stance for things that matter, than braindead redbull action sports. It's about people being together and that goes beyond individual fun.
