Intrusive Thoughts: I Rode the Widest Handlebars in Existence
@DJ-24: That's a pretty wild amount of variation. Kinesiology isn't really my thing. Just playing with numbers.

Intrusive Thoughts: I Rode the Widest Handlebars in Existence
Adding to this, if we assume JM and Dario are the extreme ends of the spectrum for acceptable arm to bar angle it's easy to define a max and min bar width as well. Interestingly the deviation in arm angle is approximately +/- 4 degrees. Using the JM derived min arm angle (about 72 degrees) then Dario's max bar width would be 940. Dario is defining the max arm angle (about 80 degrees) so of course that results in his min bar width being 770. If we take max arm angle and apply it to JM, bar width could be as low as 584.

Intrusive Thoughts: I Rode the Widest Handlebars in Existence
If we assume that a better approximation for bar width is based off biacromial width as well as arm length then the bar width that would be proportionally the same as Kazimer's would be 857. Still a wide boy. The logic behind this rough approximation is that you'd want roughly the same angle between your arm and the bar when your arms are fully extended. Bar width would then be biacromial width plus two times arm width times the cosine of arm to bar angle. 857 was arrived at by assuming wingspan is equal to height so arm length would be approximately height minus biacromial width all divided by two.

Review: Yeti Goes Long With the Ultra-Adjustable LT
@smokey-mcbowls: Honestly probably won't. At least in the near future. I don't foresee them being super common out on the trails for at least a year or two.

Review: Yeti Goes Long With the Ultra-Adjustable LT
The rear triangle would no longer be fully constrained and it would allow some amount of free movement before the lower link and/or chainstay hit something.

Intrusive Thoughts: How Much Can Modern Parts Improve My Old Bike?
@Dario-DiGiulio: have you actually compared the leverage curve of that link on the v1 sentinel to that of a v2 sentinel?

Jank Components Releases Long Chainstay Link For Ibis Ripmo V3 & Ripley V5
You can’t increase chainstay length on the stumpjumper without a whole new chainstay and ideally seatstay as well. Larger size stumpjumpers have longer rear ends, so it is possible to use those parts to make a smaller size longer.

Seattle Riders Rally to Save Beloved Dirt Jumps from Being Bulldozed
@hastroublefocusing: yeah we should be good. It looks like they may have decided they want that little road to stay too since they’ve got arrows on it in the map too.

Seattle Riders Rally to Save Beloved Dirt Jumps from Being Bulldozed
I would hope that the school district could appreciate that places like this are valuable to kids as well and these kinds of places are disappearing. I grew up riding these jumps as well as South SeaTac. Most of SST got wiped out to expand the prison adjacent to it. Having access to places like those played a large roll in how I ended up where I am today. Not all kids that want to do something active are going to be drawn to classic sports. I know I'm far from the only one who has many core memories of these places as a kid. Beyond something that helped push me towards mechanical engineering, as a kid you can learn a ton about community from jumps like these. Not only that, these jumps have been around for a long time. Long enough that I would consider them historical to a degree. It would truly be a shame to see them go. There are other locations to put fields. If you're in the Seattle area, show up to the meeting on October 15th.
