Trek Fuel EX 9.9 27lbs
$3250 USDFairly stock 2019 Fuel EX 9.9 (full carbon front triangle, seat stays, and chain stays). 27.0lbs without pedals, the DT Swiss carbon wheels make it super quick accelerating and light feeling. My partner has been riding this bike for a few years but is now switching to a shorter travel bike for the daily driver, so time for this one to go. It's been ridden, so it's got scuffs and aesthetic damage, including the typical clear coat peeling on the handlebars (frame does not have that problem). Happy to provide more detail pictures of specific pieces as needed, located in Olympia, WA.

Check Out: Futuristic Handlebars, New Saddles, Back Protection, & More
For some reason customers seem to love products that are more expensive, eliminate all adjustability, and have no cylindrical surfaces for mounting anything other than grips. The integrated bar/stem combos are cool for really specific dedicated builds that want to maximize aesthetics and cleanliness at the expense of everything else, but philosophically they just irritate me. Options? Great. Standard equipment? Hard pass.

Norco Launches 3 New eMTBs - Batteries Sold Separately
I was just wondering how the bike industry could introduce another new “standard” that is completely unnecessary. Really looking forward to he 1.8” forks that will no longer be compatible with any existing frame on the market, you know, because we keep seeing all these eBike riders snapping their steerer tubes off from the extra 20lbs of weight that puts “substantially more stress” on the fork. Christ this industry is dumb. The bikes look awesome though.

Shimano Introduces New 'Linkglide' Drivetrain Technology with Bold Longevity Claims
Oh good, just what we needed, yet another product from Shimano that is literally incompatible with every other one of their products complete with nonsense part numbering and “glide” in the name. That will be great for the consumer.

Outbound Lighting Launch Trail Evo Light
I don’t think the claims were ever reduced, they posted a runtime chart, I know on MTBr Outbound offered to update the firmware on original Hangover units to address some complaints people had, surprised you didn’t get a response though based on what everyone else has said. Hmm.
