Pinkbike Annual Community Survey Results: Who Are Pinkbike Readers?
If your survey allowed people that don't have a bike be able to select they ride 2-3 times a week, then I think we finally have evidence of voter fraud.

Video: Brooke Goudy on Removing Barriers & Why Representation Matters
@Kevindhansen: Black people in America are 2.5x more in poverty than whites. If you don't have $$$ or a car, you aren't mountain biking. If you believe that opportunities are equal here, or ignoring data that shows poverty begets poverty, then you're attributing poverty/economic pitfalls to a whole race of people being dumb or lazy? Or you can attribute poverty to a generational economic onslaught on a whole race of people since the inception of this country.

For the sake of being fair and balanced, he should also ride through a coal mine.

DT Swiss Updates 350 Hub & Launches Ratchet Upgrade System - Pond Beaver 2021
I don't get why people love these hubs. 3 month old 240 hub with a 3 month old 54 tooth ratchet...the ratchet blew last week as I was going up a steep climb. Literally fell forward on the bike cuz the ratchets weren't grabbing. Took apart and noticed the freehub bearing was rough. Cleaned everything and tried again and still trashed. Had the original 18T so have that back on.
I've had a Hadley hub for 8 years, and never changed a bearing. I didn't know internals of a hub ever went bad, until I rode a DT.

What's the point of a warranty when they don't bother answering calls or emails.
Just checked my email from them saying they'll get back to me...from June 2020.

Rockshox Vivid Air R2C *NEW*
$550 USDBrand *new* never used Rockshox Vivid Air R2C size 240x76mm.
This is an amazing air shock, with a coil like feel. You can find rave reviews everywhere.
I sent in my original to Rockshox under warranty, but they just sent me a new shock instead! I'm actually on a different shock now and not planning on swapping. Passing on my luck since this retails for over $700.
Cash and local sales only!!
Price firm.
