Review: DVO Topaz 3 Air Shock
My last fork was EXT and my new Onyx D1 blows it out of the water in performance. Works better for me than my last 36 too. My buddy had had a bunch of issues with his Ohlins fork as well ,so not sure Ohlins and EXT are the holy grail of performance by any stretch....

Review: DVO Topaz 3 Air Shock
I've been on the new Topaz for a few months now after giving up on my Float X2 and couldn't be happier. I'm riding the stock setup on my Norco Sight with 140 psi on the bladder. Feels super plush. Was also looking gat the Super Deluxe, but DVO was having a sale that made the Topaz a nice chunk cheaper.

E*thirteen Announces New Close Range & Wide Range Cassettes
Just ordered the 13-52. I have steep climbs where I'm from, so 32T or 30T in the front with the 40-45-52 combo will make climbing a bit more enjoyable for sure!

Group Test: 14 of the Latest & Greatest Flat Pedals Reviewed
Pedalling Innov, Tectonic, Pembre, and no Deity? Must have been a pay to play test.
Also, OneUp is the best value? Lol. They are they only composite pedal in the test. Why didnt you put in their alu pedal? Other companies have composite options as well....
Weirdest shootout I've seen in a while....Do better PB....

Review: Akta's Trail Apparel & Protection Line
I'm in the same boat. Love the pants and need to grab a pair of shorts and the pads now too.... The D3O phone pocket is a fantastic feature.

Head to Head Review: 2023 RockShox Zeb vs Fox 38
So sick of just the Fox/RS comparison, although I get it considering they are probably 2 of PB's top sponsors..... The DVO Onyx I'm on now feels sooo much better than my last FOX 36. Ohlins and EXT are crushing it as well. I hope other suspension brands start to make it onto more bikes. The current OEM climate is so boring....

DVO's New Shock, Compression Upgrade Kit, and a Dropper Post for Climbers - Taipei Cycle Show 2023
@ratedgg13: Maybe. Although you'll prob see Trans-X posts with similar dims and features soon. Trans-X makes PNW posts and PNW does service for Trans-X (JD factory)....Same-same.

DVO's New Shock, Compression Upgrade Kit, and a Dropper Post for Climbers - Taipei Cycle Show 2023
@adrennan: Don't think they will own it for long. PNW is just re-branded Tranz-X, so why pay more....Constantly having to re-lube my One Up and had to replace a cartridge after 8 months. When it works it's great, but it's finicky. My buddy's SDG Tellis has been flawless, so if I ever buy a low cost replacement that will be the one..... The only Reason OneUp is interesting is the low stack, but otherwise it's just average performance....Bike Yoke Revive is the best as far as I can see, but it's pricey.
Let's see some long term reviews of this DVO. Maybe it'll be worth it...

Fezzari Launches Timp Peak Long Travel eMTB
The Comp is amazing value. Under 6k with top level DVO suspension....NX isn't awesome but will work fine until you swap it our for some GX bits....
