Velo Digest: Italian Cycling Team Shot At in Road Rage Incident, SRAM vs. Shimano, Best Bikes of 2025 & More
@heissescheisse: Well said, I was about to make the same comment. If you want curly-bar info from real journalists who don't plagiarize or use AI to write their reviews, I suggest Escape Collective or James Huang's substack. Neither are free, but in a world of advertising masquerading as reviews and AI BS, I'm happy to pay a few bucks for good work from good people.

Shimano Releases XT & Deore Di2 Wireless Drivetrains
@Spencermon: Pretty sure the SRAM Flattop chains have slightly larger rollers than the Eagle chains, and cassette teeth have a correspondingly different shape. So it'll probably work, but will wear the drivetrain faster than using the correct cassette/chain combo.

Review: WRP Zero Drag Hub Internal Kit
@pwkblue: 100%, and I always thank hikers for stepping aside. But forewarning is good; if they hear you coming a gentle "excuse me" doesn't lead to startled jumping and frazzled nerves for all involved!

Review: WRP Zero Drag Hub Internal Kit
Loud hubs save lives! Only slightly joking; I ride enough semi-busy trails that my I9 and DT hubs really help warning hikers I’m coming. The idea of silent seems nice but realistically the noise has a purpose for me…..

Review: Shimano's XTR Drivetrain Finally Goes Wireless
That setup will probably also be popular on gravel bikes paired with road shifters. Honestly kind of surprised that cassette is an XTR product not GRX.

Pinkbike Primer: Your Essential Guide to the Opening Round of the 2025 XC World Cup Series
Why not both? On the West Coast plan is to wake up early, watch the skinny tires, go for a ride, come home & watch the fat tires. Pretty good Sunday IMHO.

Cane Creek eeWings cranks + power meter
$400 USDCane Creek eeWings titanium crank arms (175mm) plus Sigeyi spider power meter for sale. These are in very good shape; titanium is pretty much indestructible, so beyond some very minor scuffs they're as-new. Light as the lightest XC cranks but ready to take a beating, these are phenomenal.
The PM is an eeWings-specific Sigeyi model with 104mm BCD; you can read about it here:https://powermetercity.com/product/sigeyi-axo-cane-creek-eewings-mtb-power-meter/
I also have an Enduro BB for these cranks (BSA threaded) that I'm happy to include.
Price includes shipping to continental US.
