Digit Announces New Ring Trail Bike
@lkubica: The suspension design of this bike IS the extra, you aren't getting that anywhere else.

Pinkbike Poll: Center Lock or 6-Bolt Brake Rotor Mounting?
@imbiker: 1. If you've bent the rotor that bad, you also probably crashed very hard and are possibly not riding out of there anyway.
2. Nobody is carrying a spare rotor on rides, so you are down a brake even if you can remove it. Just take the brake off with your multitool instead of the rotor and you are in effectively the same position.

Pinkbike Poll: Center Lock or 6-Bolt Brake Rotor Mounting?
@imbiker: If a centerlock rotor becomes loose, it can't go anywhere because the splines and caliper hold it in place and you can still brake. If a 6 bolt rotor were to come loose, it will drop down until the ID hits the hub, and your caliper will have nothing to grab.

just fyi, its Kent Eriksen, not Ken Erikson. The welds on those bikes (and now Bingham Built) are the best you'll ever see.

First Look: 5DEV's $200 Titanium Chainrings For SRAM Cranks
Agreed, I've never had a problem with normal chainrings that bolt to a spider on the crank. When Shimano changed to the non-square bolt pattern on their spiders I thought that was stupid too, but at least you can still swap a chainring without removing the whole crank there.
