Sep 2, 2024Ultegra di2 r8000 rear derailleur
$100 CADIn good shape, used on a cx bike that mainly saw road, only selling because I am swapping to a big grx setup. Still shifts as good as new (a little better than I can get my grx, tbh), software is up to date, a few little scratches on the body but nothing even remotely serious. Pulley wheel pivots feel great still.

OneUp Announces New V3 Dropper Post
I'm a big fan of the weight savings. Other parts of bikes are getting bigger and heavier. If we can make up for some of that with parts like this being super light that's rad.

If this is somewhat reasonably priced I might have to go for this one. 200mm and matchmaker clamp, if this is cheaper than the reverb then it’s excellent.

Easier to install between bikes, less cables to worry about, less chance of an extra internal cable rattling, clean cockpit, easier to disassemble for travel, more reliable feel on the trigger, etc.

Review: Spank 359 Downhill Wheels - Alloy Wheels Turned up to 11
Insane engagement is a weird modern trend. I can see it being important in xc, trials and trail riding that involves technical climbing, but for enduro and dh it's completely counter-productive. Just get a dt350 with reasonable drive rings and never worry about pedal kick or having to get an O-chain.

I always wonder about this. How much faster is a bike that has just been serviced in every way over a bike that has had time to have all it's kinks and sticky issues worked out.

Review: Formula Cura 4 Brakes
I just installed a pair for someone. After the setup and test ride I immediately ordered a set for myself.
