First Ride: OneUp Launches $599 Aluminum Wheelset
Not for me. I can get EX511 rims with Hope pro 5 hubs and brass nipples for same price. Also get spatespokes and free wheel truing for life with a company I use. Oh also I'd want 27.5" drone wheel so no matter how cheap or amazing OneUp wheels were, they'd still not be an option for me.
I use OneUp seatposts on all of my bikes and ther warranty and customer service has been excellent for me so I really rate the company generally.

First Ride: The 2026 Santa Cruz Tallboy Has Been Fully Reinvented, But Remains a Joy
Ridden Santa Cruz for 10 years but will never buy another now they have no option for cable actuated mechs. Obviously they're cheapening their frames yet still charging top (Iish) dollar.

Like Sram and mineral oil in brakes. Turns out that they were lying all along (which most of us knew).

Review: Hope Tech 4 V4 Brakes - Strong and Sensitive
@noahm-05: I found red MTX to be noisy AF. Especially if there's any moisture what so ever. This was with Cura 2 brakes.

Review: Hope Tech 4 V4 Brakes - Strong and Sensitive
@endoguru: MTX for me were the worst pads I ever used. Noisy AF and no more power than other pads I've used.

Industry Nine Appoints We Are One Founder Dustin Adams as New CEO
@likeittacky: I know all about both companies. They have nothing to do maritime industry. Your analogy is not valid. Also you silly quote is not fact. Just some random words put together to try to sound impressive. Much like you with your analogy.

@likeittacky: "Ships", submarines", "captains"??? Lol. This company makes wheels for push bikes FFS. Sounds like you'd fit right in at i9.

Forge+Bond's USA-Based Parent Company is Ceasing Operations & Cannot Fulfill Warranties
@92hokie: I don't know anyone who has sent their old ally wheels (or frames) to be recycled. I suppose someone must have done so?
