Pinkbike Poll: Center Lock or 6-Bolt Brake Rotor Mounting?
Centerlock is objectively a better performer but having to carry around the massive tool to tighten the lockring is too much of a pain when compared to a simple T25

First Ride: Forbidden Druid V2 - High Pivot Evolution
Crazy that they included all the suspension kinematics graphs EXCEPT ANTI-SQUAT. Why??!?!?!

I wonder if this warranty will come to a rim only option any time soon?

First Ride: Guerrilla Gravity's Updated Smash
@bman33: I mean, they were still in Denver back when I bought my frame so I don't really think that's the cause of the price hike. They did move their HQ to a different building but I would hope that simply moving buildings wouldn't put them in enough financial trouble to require a nearly 50% price increase per frame.

Yeah they raised their frame only prices by nearly $1000 from when I bought my Gnarvana a year or two ago

Review: 1,000 Miles on SRAM's New Eagle Transmission
"The force required for the derailleur to affect the frame would be extraordinary, the type of hit that would likely rip a traditional derailleur clean off and shove it into the spokes."
I've seen this shit happen so many times, that does not give me any confidence that people won't be breaking frames left and right with this system. There's a good reason why the industry went away from direct mount in the first place.

Pinkbike Poll: Are Tire Inserts Leaving You Deflated?
I always run them front and rear purely for rim protection. I've somehow managed to dent a few wheels even through the cushcore, if that wasn't there the rim would have folded every single time. That shit saves rides lol

Shimano Consolidates Entry- to Mid-Level Groupsets With New CUES Drivetrains
Seems like Box has been doing pretty good with their prime 9 drivetrain recently, so much so that Shimano felt the need to try and compete
