Must Watch: Brandon Semenuk Is Incredible As Always for 'In The Know'
Every good Semenuk edit is usually followed by a horribly ADHD shaky cam 1second cut edit. Two incredible ones in a row is clearly a sign of the end times!

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly: What Fenders Pinkbike's Editors Actually Use
I use the rockshox one for my Zeb, and it has the same issue the fox ones pictured above have: one huge advantage of fenders is protecting your fork seals, yet some of these new bolt on ones do a terrible job of this.
I used to have some cheapo strap-on job (easy now), and my fork seals were much cleaner after dusty runs.

Qualifying Results from Red Bull Hardline Tasmania 2024
Some big gaps from 1-4, but my guess is they are not going full race pace yet. Kerr naturally more comfortable at a higher pace thanks to the extra testing days.

First Ride: Scott Voltage - The Electric Genius
Congrats to the engineer that packaged all that stuff inside the frame.
Hard pass from me, because of, well, pretty much every design choice made.

Review: SRAM's New Maven Brakes - The Big Brake
Would these not evaporate organic pads?
Sounds like a good upgrade to codes, seeing as these will probably grace most stock bike builds. But the heavy lever feel is the most annoying part of codes along with the huge lever throw.
The other day just as a test I tried pulling the levers 10x times in a row, but releasing before the pads actually slowed the rotor, The lever is so heavy I could feel my forearms warming up despite not actually doing any braking!

First Ride: Cannondale Moterra SL eMTB - Full Power Without the Weight
That's exactly what I was thinking, no one will notice a 1kg difference, but a lot of riders would appreciate 20% more range...
