SQlab's 50X Flat Pedals Come in 3 Axle Lengths
@vinay: my bad, mixed it up with srams 24mm option, whatever this was called. You`d be suprised about the side loads you introduce in a crankset. Far from an ideal load situation for a ball bearing. There is a reason almost all current BB Designs preload both bearings today.

SQlab's 50X Flat Pedals Come in 3 Axle Lengths
@vinay: yhou had no problems with the BBs themselves? A single simple radial ball bearing taking all axial loads was such a stupid idea

Atherton Bikes Launch Direct to Consumer Website Sales
@solamanda: i am sorry but i find it rather off putting to expect this kind of amazon "culture" If you take a minute and try to grasp the extend of your expectations, you should see that a small company delivering some form of small series or custom work is not comparable by any means, which is a good thing.

Field Test: 13 Bikes Hucked to Flat at 1000 FPS
Anyone else noticed that pedal kickback is not a thing. It just accelerates forward. Probably the reason why my experience with high kickback numbers and flat pedals was only negativ on steep janky uphills (on a 180mm singlepivot)

Cane Creek Announces Progressive Springs for Coil Shocks
I still don´t understand how this is supposed to work. From my understanding some windings need to go on block to provide progression from others. Coil springs in series alone will just never be progressive...

Mondraker Debuts Sub 20kg Crafty Carbon e-Enduro e-MTB
@ziles: exactly. Prime example how a big part of the bicycle industry is totally failing right now. This will all blow up, sure thing.

Field Test: 2020 Pole Stamina 140 - The Fastest Trail Bike*
I wouldn´t even call this a rush job but an immanent design error. The shock forces are introduced into the rear subframe in the single worst vector, exactly where chain and tire are already taking up the bulk of the space available. And all this only to mount 2 waterbottles in the mainframe. i better leave my armchair now...

Jeff Steber Returns as Intense CEO [Updated]
@jaame: you are very right. No friend of carbon myself, after losing 2 frames to rather unspectacular mishaps, but my last expensive experiment in aluminium failed because of aluminium frames having said propertys. A banshee spitfire which ate faster through a set of bearings than you can imagine and suffered a cracked main triangle due to poor heat dispersion during welding. Considering the weight of a few contemporary carbon and aluminium frames, i plan on building a steel frame with competitive weight and hopefully the longest lifetime yet.. in CAD it looks pretty reasonable weight wise.
