Canada Announces Olympic Team for Paris 2024
@BrianColes: I was thinking of Bob and Doug of “Strange Brew” and SCTV. Gen X’ers would have gotten the joke. ;)

Why? Because they have European origin names? Try looking through a phone directory of Vancouver or Toronto… not everyone is named “Smith” or “Mackenzie”.

No mention of their more budget or entry level forks and shocks? Are those unchanged from before?

The Pinkbike Podcast: What Makes Your Bike YOURS
Customized stem top caps. My bike, my wife’s, and my kid’s all have different coloured donuts (artwork) printed on them, which is colour matched to our assorted colour anodized titanium bolts. :)
It’s a small detail, doesn’t cost that much, but it adds a fair bit of personality to our bikes.

Narrow bars are why bar ends were so popular back in the early nineties. An additional, wider hand position for extra oomph on the climbs and sprints.
Also, it seemed like the trails were MUCH narrower (ie trees were closer) back in those days.

The Pinkbike Podcast: Our Teenage Fantasy Bikes That We Dreamed of Owning
Anything in titanium was the dream back when I was first getting into mountain biking in the early 90s. Litespeed and Merlins were lusted after like Ferraris and Lambos, whereas many other brands would reserve ti for their top end crown jewel bikes.
That being said, brightly painted aluminum Kleins were guaranteed to turn heads at the trail. Gorgeous bikes.
I got pretty close to my own dream bike by buying a Cannondale F700, back when the Volvo-Cannondale team was huge. Although it was specced with only mid tier parts, at least it had the exact same frame as what Alison Sydor was riding at the time. For a young kid who used to cut out pages from all his Mountain Bike Action magazines and post them all over his apartment, that bike made me feel fast.

I have fond memories of mountain biking around southern Vancouver Island in the early nineties, when it seemed everyone was riding Konas, Brodies, Rocky Mountains, Norcos, etc. And then there was me, on a lugged steel frame Japanese made Bridgestone…

If they made those today, but with D30 padding instead, I’d buy them in a heartbeat. I love my Roach armour.

I still have the set I bought nearly 3 decades ago.
