Ryan Leech's Flat Pedal Challenge
I've ridden clipless on the trail once. On the first berm, my outside foot stayed clipped in, but as I took up the play in the mechanism it felt like I was twisting my foot on a block of ice. 5-10's and proper flats feel more laterally stable to me.

Trek's New Fuel EX 29 and Remedy 27.5 - First Ride
@ttrevorbacon: I understand. Still, the merits of a bike are overshadowed here by forum members that are so upset about silly marketing that we rarely get to read what people think about the benefits vs shortcomings of each bike.
It would be nice to read one or two comments about a supposedly useless standard or feature and then actually have a productive conversation about the bike as a whole. Knock block may be unnecessary, but does it severely hurt the performance of the bike? I say call it what it is and then move on. I'd like to read what people think of the bike, not their opinions of the company. Is there a company that cares about you personally? Not likely. They're all in it to get your money, one byproduct is we get to enjoy some good stuff from virtually every industry.

So..... The deluxe shock has more negative air volume with better bushing spacing and they've added reaktiv for the Remedy and people want to be hyper-focused on knock block marketing?
Why don't they just design the bike, produce it, and then not tell anyone about it?
