Video: Friday Fails #408
In defense of #3 as the sleeper pick, 20+ foot drop jaw first straight into a rock is what it looks like. Going frame by frame on the YT version, I counted four full rider body lengths (6'x4) of head drop from the top of the feature to the impact. Looks like the rider's jaw was the first and primary point of contact with the ground, rotating their head hard left after a major facial compression.
I hope I'm wrong and they just shook it off.

First Ride: The 2027 Scott Spark RC Keeps the Shock Hidden and Gets Even Lighter
@dangerholm: Did they fix the gravel chainring size problem on this frame? Expecting drop bars, 50t aero chainring, 2.4 dubnitals, a 3d printed fairing and carbon fiber shorts.

I spent some time digging into the ultralight build and in addition to ditching all of flight attendant, the fork on the ultralight build HAS 32 MM STANCHIONS.

my picks were 48, 13 and 4. Surprised for no votes for 13 - big helmet contact

First Look: Orbea's New Oiz is Focused Solely on XC Racing
@Snowytrail: Ya taking a closer look it also uses a manual dropper post. FA doesn't utilize dropper data so this is ok, but it leaves the user with two buttons: shift up, shift down, and no button for FA override. IMO FA override is a critical button (please set suspension to open, or rigid, depending on the race) so you'd need to go buy an aftermarket button. Fortunately the wireless blips will do FA override, but sadly they are only sold as a pair for $200! So that's.... well, IMO pretty annoying.

100%. FA adds a lot of weight but 7.7k as a pricepoint for an FA equipped bike is a first AFAIK. imo FA is always faster than the weight reduction

Hot Laps 2026: The Ultimate "No Bad Times" MTB Festival Returns to Port Gamble
Any chance you could add just one endurance event to this weekend? Asking for the old timers.
The Port Gamble buildout is amazing and this looks like a great event

The Leatt Gravity 5.0 is a 5-Star Rated, BOA-Equipped Full-Face Helmet
@way2manyhobbies2keep: No I get it, snuffing out helmet innovation in the name of helmet safety runs completely counter to mission. I'm officially interested in that Canyon helmet now, I need a helmet anyway and intentionally purchasing away from MIPS with those kind of Virginia Tech scores just makes sense.
One thing I don't understand on the Canyon helmet is the $150 mtb helmet (coming soon) and the $300 road helmet (available now, "pro level"), and the only difference I can detect is you pay $150 more to take the visor off it. Probably something I'm missing.
