5 Things We Learned from Red Bull Hardline Tasmania
@commental: but not knowing means I was denied the opportunity to moan about it not being live. Now all I have is the poor substitute of moaning about not knowing it wasn’t live

Opinion: The Big Short - Smaller Wheels Don't Require Shorter Chainstays
In fact, they only still have them on road bikes because of the UCI

10 Things I Loved in 2023: Seb Stott
@fabwizard: shortening crank lengths effects your gear ratio in exactly the same way a move from 27.5 to 29 does. Ultimately you can compensate by going down a chainring size and running higher cadence, but many bikes have very limited chainring range. My Rallon can only go down to 30t, so 165mm cranks about as short as I can go unless I run it mullet full time.

10 Things I Loved in 2023: Seb Stott
I’ve had three and never needed to replace the cartridge? The regreasing is more regular than I’d like, but it’s 10 minute job max. For the price, weight, stack height and serviceability, it’sa great package

Review: EXT ERA V2.1 Fork
A benefit of EXT not mentioned here is that you can upgrade the internals when upgrades come out. My V1 will get v2.1 internals when it next goes in for a service at a very reasonable price. Which together with decent CSU means it’s a fork you can keep for a few years and amortise the cost down, whilst keeping a cutting edge performance fork. Not really the case with Fox

Rapha Releases New Trail Gore-Tex Pants
@tg222: as generic advise maybe, but not really in the case of riding pants. These items go through the combination of heavy dirt and strong shearing forces, which makes short work of the membrane. It’s just a bad technology for this application.

Is This the New Enduro? Specialized Patent Shows 170mm Bike With UBB Suspension Design
@KJP1230: this design might get a patent, the old one has expired, a la DT Swiss “improving” their ratchet design with EXP. Progress….

Review: Goodyear Newton MTR & MTF Tires
@HeatedRotor: agreed, such a big product miss which must really limit their addressable market. For me, really it’s also just about the fronts.. pretty much one extra tyre option per family
