Asa Vermette Extends Contract with Frameworks Racing 5DEV Until 2028
I LOVE THIS!!!! It's basically a BIG F-U to all the big bike companies that want to scoop Asa up. I'm stoked for Neko and Asa and the Frameworks team. I'm a firm believer in rooting for the little guy, the underdog...It just feels right.

Extreme Racing Shox Technical Director & Suspension Innovator Franco Fratton Passes Away
Franco was such an amazing and kind human being. I only met him a couple times when visiting the Sea Otter Classic and he was always willing to chat with me about suspension concepts, even though I was just a really interested guy. He was a straight shooter that would tell it like it is and had a TREMENDOUS amount of knowledge that he was willing to share. When I learned more about him I realized that he was a HUGE influence on why high-performance suspension is what it is today. I'm not sure if the industry will ever be able to fill the void left by his passing...My heart goes out to all his family, friends, and all the employees at EXT Suspension. Franco, you were an amazing person and I feel so lucky to have met you. You will forever be missed.

Finals Photo Epic: Fort William DH World Cup 2024
Just a heads up...The black and white photo that is captioned "Anna Newkirk 8th" is actually a photo of Monika Hrastnik. Anna Newkirk did finish 8th in the final with plate number 18.

Group Test: 14 of the Latest & Greatest Flat Pedals Reviewed
Chromag Dagga's are the best hands down...So much grip, great feel and the most durable flat pedal I've ever used. Would have been nice to see them in the test.

Juliana Maverick CC Large

$4200 USD
This is an almost "as new" condition 2021 Juliana Maverick CC (same as Santa Cruz Hightower CC) size large in the “Commando Green” paint job. The dropper post, wheels, and drivetrain (except crank arms) are all brand new with zero ride time on them. All other components are in used condition, but in great shape. There are some very minor scuffs on the frame and the XT logo on the cranks are worn down from normal use (they came off of another bike). The tires are practically new with plenty of life left in them along with fresh orange seal sealant so you won’t need a top-off anytime soon. This is a beautiful and very capable trail/enduro bike that is ready to go with no modifications, repairs, or replacement parts needed. All reasonable offers considered. Can arrange for local pickup.

Field Test: Contra MC - The Steel Steamroller
@wyorider: You mentioned this in the intro to the Field Test Review article. I think my response to your comment in that last article was fairly reasonable, but maybe you didn't see it? I've copied and pasted it here for you! "Hey Guys! Evan from Contra Bikes here...Yes I completely agree that downtube weld isn't pretty. The bike that Pinkbike rode (what you see pictured) was the second prototype of the newest design. They needed the bike earlier than expected for this review, so this was the most recent bike I could provide them. Those plates were laser cut slightly oversized, then mitered on a manual mill by me. By trying to miter it to fit the tube, I made the ends where it met the tube quite thin and the fit wasn't perfect which made the plate really tough to weld. The production frames have a precise laser cut plate that doesn't require mitering. There is a nice consistent pocket for the weld to sit in and this will make it much easier to get a clean/straight consistent weld. Lesson learned! As for the paint finish, this color shifting wet paint job, although beautiful, is not at all durable. The local powder coaters were moving locations when this bike needed a paint job so I went with wet paint on this bike from a local frame painter. The production frames are all powder coated, which provides a way more durable finish."
