Challenging track. Not sure I would ride it on the first try with an enduro bike.

Hexagon Components Launches Ti Pro 3D Printed Titanium Brake Levers for $109
The claimed material saved in the manufacturing process is some greenwashing. What they didn’t say is:
- the initial material is still melted and forged to produce a bar. Therefore, there will be no reduction in let say CO2 emissions;
- the conversion process into powder has a yield between 50 to 70% at most;
- the Laser Power Bed Fusion process used to print the brake levers has itself a yield of 90%.

$8,400 For a Swiss-Made Carbon Frame? Introducing the Nostra XC
@hi-dr-nick: indeed. I give free Swiss watches to everyone when I am travelling (but chocolate to the Republicans in the USA to show my opinion on the current President), I have three houses world wide, own a Bugatti…etc
Otherwise, while incomes are pretty high, I admit, I will let you have a look to: the living costs and the current exchange rate USD/CHF.

Canyon to Cut Up to 320 Jobs as Part of Global Restructuring
@zoobab2: LBS I can understand. But the local bike manufacturers are a dying breed. 99% of the bicycles frames are made in Taiwan.

Review: The O'Neal Trailfinder Helmet With Quin Sensor Can Call For Help If You Hit Your Head
Helmets should be light otherwise it is only added weight to the head during impact. This one falls in the really heavy category.
