New Dropper Post Levers, Grips, Handlebars, and Brake Pads - Across the Pond Beaver

@ilovedust: I'm in the same camp. Big hands and I prefer small diameter grips. I experience thumb pain and numbness with larger dia grips. My favorites are Renthal push ons but they are a bit of a pain in the butt.

Cane Creek Announces the DB Kitsuma Shock

Will the coil fit a Tallboy 4? I know that's a bit backwards but I love my Tallboy and I love coil shocks! The DB IL coil fits, will the piggyback hit the frame?

Bike Check: Kevin Miquel's Sunn Kern LT - EWS Zermatt 2020

Well with a cadence of 105 on 36/10 gearing on 29x2.4s you're going 38mph. On an offroad track that is anything less than asphalt buff and has turns, yes that is silly fast. Around 120 cadence would be close to spinning out for most people which is 43.4mph with that gearing...

Field Test: 9 XC Bikes & the Grim Donut VS the Huck to Flat

@davidccoleman: There's much more to making a fork stiff than stanchion diameter.

That SID wouldn't make it on any of my bikes I don't think. At 200lbs the flex would be a little too much and bushing wear would be quite accelerated I believe. I love the idea of the Spur, Ranger, or Epic Evo but I'd have to go with a 34 or Pike.

Bike Check: Myriam Nicole's Commencal Supreme Mullet

There are other differences in the feel though. It isn't just WB that makes them handle differently.

Bike Check: Myriam Nicole's Commencal Supreme Mullet

@artistformlyknowasdan: For me the larger rotors allow me to use less grip pressure allowing more finesse with the braking and less arm fatigue/pump. sure I can run 180s down a dh track but they are much less precise. I have to brake sooner to slow down the same amount. I just got a new trail bike that was 180 F&R. Had the parts to go 200 on the front which was needed immediately. Still need to go 200 in the back. 160 PM on the back of anything more than an XC race bike is silly IMO. Just make them 180 already...

@artistformlyknowasdan: But'cept'you'wan'know'what? They are wrong. Smaller at the front is stupid on the trail, I tried it. Just run 200s F&R.

Spotted: A Better Look at Cannondale's New Long Travel Bike

@lord-01: Looks like a hole but covered with a substantial rock guard/fender. Probably not as good as totally closed but not like the back wheel slinging stuff on it like some other designs. I doubt it would get overly dirty in that scenario.
