Crankbrothers Releases New Stamp 1 Composite Flat Pedal
Seems like crank bros can make good shoes, wheels, droppers, tools…but can’t get the pedal thing just right.

Review: The Orbea Wild M-LTD Raises the Bar for eMTB
Only dry guys hate on Eebs. Seriously, people have been loading bikes into trucks to shuttle and taking chairlifts for years because a high percentage of riders live for the downs. I see so many people hiking their bikes uphill even with a dropper and dinner plate cassette. Every time I grab my regular bikes I wish I would have grabbed the eeb so I could ride more and have more fun on the ups. You can still get a workout, just don’t ride in boost the entire fvcking ride, and also don’t be a dick and buzz people on the climbs or leave your non eeb equipped friends in the dust if you chose to ride together. In the grand scheme of things they are just plain fun and take whatever you’ve got and let you do more with it.

Josh Lewis Signs with SCOR
I’ve wondered that myself. I honestly doubt there’s a grip2 in the fork or anything drastically different in the rear shock. Maybe some custom tuning to the stock dampers either right or away or down the road after he’s spent time on them. Different shim stack, etc. Could also see them literally just sending him the stuff as is and expecting him to figure it out. I ride a Z1 air, and honestly think the grip damper is perfectly adequate and well tuned internally. It’s the only suspension product (front or rear) that I use that I spent a great deal of time riding exactly how it was when it showed up; without opening it up and changing things, until I increased the stroke.
I’m honestly surprised Marzocchi, nor Deity have posted anything about sponsoring him yet.

They scored big time by signing him. Hope they support him well! Going to be really interesting seeing him ride 29”, granted not many choices otherwise these days.

Kyle Strait Signs With Vitus
Big fan of Kyle! So intrigued by different rider’s bar height preferences. Interesting that he runs a low rise bar (with a few spacers underneath) on what seems like a small or medium frame, and he’s a not a short dude. Cockpit looks pretty low, granted I guess it’s a race bike.
Stoked for him and his recovery!
