Pinkbike Poll: Do You Need Downtube Storage?
It obviously adds weight, the question is how much. 300 grams would be awful. For 200 grams, I could get by without it. I could tolerate an extra 150-100 grams for it.

Review: SRAM's New Maven Brakes - The Big Brake
I get a old-school (early 2000) DH vibe from them because everything was so ugly. If it was ugly, it must be hardcore.

Review: 6 Months Aboard the Specialized Levo SL eMTB
I also often forget I'm not riding an EMTB when ascending. Or just never think about it at all, unless I get passed by one. I think this is the reason why so many people are wanting one. Not wanting to feel left behind.

Reviewed: 6 of the Best Lightweight Elbow Pads for 2024
Been happy with the 100% Teratec Plus. Stays in place. Doesn't bother me. Has a good coverage and enough protection. That would be it. Of course, the "bothering" is relative. I want to get them out after riding, it's not like knee pads that I don't mind keeping. Probably because the arms are more sensible to heat, or because there is a jersey on top of them.

Throwback Thursday: Ben Cathro's 2009 Orange 225 Prototype Bike Check
I like those green accents. I did a build with a similar colour combination, pink+green+orange. And some grey/chrome.

This Carbon Chainring Weighs Just 39 grams
Well. If that core was made of steel, making the chainring weight the same as an aluminium one, but costing twice as much and lasting twice as much, it would be even. As it is, 125€ for a 20 gram saving, does not pass the 1 extra euro for 1 less gram treshold.

Pinkbike Poll: What's The Least Awful Word That Means 'Not An E-Bike'?
I think it's easy. Let ebikers and motorcycle riders keep the "bike", and cyclists will refer to their tool as "bycicle". Hopefully the language morphs and sends the "bike" back to the exclusively fully or semi-motorised realm.

A Closer Look at Haven Mercer's Mechanical Automatic Transmission Concept
@aks2017: Riding without clicking the shifter is indeed the smallest investment I can think of. And you can even keep it varied by using a different speed each day (just not on the same ride).

Intend's Redesigned Grace OS Stem Increases Compatibility
@uponcripplecreek: I'm not trying to argue with you, thanks for explaining that it was in the context of doing it for someone else. I do agree that this is very unpractical, however, out of curiosity, don't you "take notes" regarding bar angle? Am I in the minority for always bothering with gluing tape on the stem bridge and handlebar for aligning it back afterwards and replicating the exact angle?

Intend's Redesigned Grace OS Stem Increases Compatibility
@uponcripplecreek: Note? It's not like a ten digit number, you know you have a 10mm spacer or a 10 and a 5 or whatever, who doesn't know what spacers they have and/or needs to write them down? To keep the headset from falling off you can just put a bunch of spacers where the stem was and tighten the headset cap again. But then of course, you need to align the steering, which is more of a pain in the ass than mounting the bar back with the same tilt as before.
