Great video! Is the new track ready now? When we went in early July It wasn’t ready yet and King Stone Road was closed so definitely have to come back. The most beautiful place I’ve ridden so far.

With more and more materials for 3D printing metals becoming available, are you looking into also branching out at çheaper options such as Aluminum and Steel lugs?

Video: 6 Aggressive Trail Bikes Ridden & Rated - Field Test Roundtable
@big-red: exactly I liked that with the Enduro :) Myself I have the SB55 and am always tempted that I need something new - and then I go out and ride and love the bike. Yes it’s a bit short in Reach for todays standard but with a 50mm stem, high-rise bar and 1.5deg Angleset to steepen up the seat tube and slacken out the front it really doesn’t feel smaller then my buddy’s bike with 25mm more Reach. And oh boy it pedals.

that would be great indeed. Maybe throw one in for reference at each test at least, like last years or two-years best. Doesnt need a full review just give an idea of where we're at and if there's all too much progress. In times of short supply that might ease the FOMO of many and makes bikes more available who really need it. (new to sport, broke your old etc.)

@motdrawde: They had a well working frame with similar value builds the last years and then decided to build this oddity with ridiculous suspension curves. I really dont understand who decided to build that bike.

Staff Rides: Matt Beer's Commencal Supreme 29/27
Do you also find that these koolstop pads last much longer? Been riding the ones with the cooling fins on the back for the whole season when I would need four of the magura race pads the years before. Still can’t quite believe it. And they are way quieter in the wet (I use my worn down Race pads as a bell on my city bike to terrify other commuters :D)

2021 Pinkbike Awards: Comeback of the Year Nominees
I’d like to see the comeback (oh wait no introduction) of a proper concussion protocol. And less glorification of recklessness of a rolemodel others shouldn’t follow.

Slack Randoms: A Braking Bump Machine, Freestyle Death Diving & Carbon Frame Production
@office:
If you ride a high quality carbon frame for a long time and get it fixed if it breaks you’ll surely break even with snapped Aluminium ones that’s true. You could also get a high quality aluminium one though :D

@mnorris122: Haha no I really like my Maguras and changed the plastic levers to the 1-finger metal ones. They work super well and the bleeding is indeed super easy.
