New Hydras are toned down a bit. Got a set two weeks ago and was pleasantly surprised. They still have that I9 buzz but it’s quieter, closer to a King hub

You know you don’t have to do any of those things? Just ride the bike you’ve got. Just cuz the pros are doing something doesn’t mean it’ll help you.

I mean it depends what you’re going for. Onyx hubs are great, but they’re heavy. These are very light. That rarely comes without a penalty. I do wonder about durability though. I’m 200lbs and have managed to break teeth on the 54T ratchet in my 350 hubs. This design looks like it’d be even easier to do that.

I mean no shit this is maybe the greatest set of photos Pinkbike has posted. Every single one is an absolute banger. Well done lads. Also, Cathro needs more than 3 minutes. That is all.

@motard5: Kona Wah Wah composites are pretty dope. Beveled edge and a massive platform.l

Another not doc back pain sufferer here: it will take time, but for me the two biggest things that corrected my lower back pain were 1) stretching, particularly hamstrings and hip/groin areas 2) slacklining Hear me out on this one, but I decided to get back into it after a few years of not rock climbing. The core and stabilizer muscle workout it gives you is pretty unparalleled. It works every stabilizing muscle you’ve got basically. After even just a week or two I noticed I was putting out more power on the bike and my back wasn’t hurting (Probably more power BECAUSE any back wasn’t hurting, but still). At any rate it’s a ton of fun and the balance practice can’t hurt on the bike either, so it’s worth a shot regardless. Cheers

That is the best looking dirt I’ve ever seen

That breakdown was almost Cathro good. Good job guys!

Unparallel Dust Ups have been working for me. The grip is unreal.

NC-17 Sudpin IV XL TNT Signature Pedals: Bit wordy of a name isn’t it? Feel like half the words in that press release were the name of the thing.
