I run the 18T for all my bikes. Thing just works. I notice the lack of engagement sometimes but I'm old now and don't care. Its just easy and always works.

Spotted: The New, Unreleased Santa Cruz Tallboy Showed Up In Transition Bikes' Parking Lot
Transition is a pretty big hub for Galbraith folk. Plus you can get over to lookout that has less traffic.

Staff Ride: Dario's Santa Cruz Tallboy, 3 Years Later
Can you elaborate on the Rock Shox XL air can? Why did you choose to go that route? Been pondering doing the same with my Hightower so would love your thoughts.

Pivot's New Mach 4 SL Adds Capability, Not Weight
I use in frame storage all the time! I can put my flat kit in there and all the snacks i need. Any ride under 3 hours and I am usually not taking a pack with me. I'm a big fan of frame storage.

A Bosch vs. Avinox Final Challenge & Our Field Test E-Bike Rankings
Agreed. Propain has that new sresh coming out with the HQ drive system. They have a modular battery. Definitely has me considering on for that reason alone. Would love the option to choose how much juice i want on a particular day.

Stephane Pelletier's Predictions for 2026
When I was pedaling up Galbraith last summer I had a ebike lady give me props for riding a regular bike. Took me a minute to register what she was talking about. We’ve crossed the rubicon… in 10 years we’re gonna look like the Amish out there on normal bikes.

2025 Pinkbike Awards: eMTB of the Year Nominees
@29er1: All bikes are made in Taiwan. Who makes a bike domestically to scale? They sure have quite a bit of employees at their office so i would say that’s a good thing. Jobs matter in small towns.
