Revisited: The Specialized Status 140 After One Year With a Guest Editor
@thenotoriousmic: Even the guide rsc are very reliable brakes. The most reliable I ever owned. With thick rotors, good pads and a very good bleed, they can produce an surprisingly good amount of stopping power with a super short lever throw. The code R I had were never weak, but needed a piston mobilization once a year.

Revisited: The Specialized Status 140 After One Year With a Guest Editor
@Kimbers: As a shop mechanic I see completely worn out Shimano 12 speed mech all the time. They get sloppy litteraly everywhere. From the B-Bolt to the cage up to every single pivot. Even the XTR mechs. Deore is the worst with sometimes 10 to 20mm side play in the whole mech. But the good thing is that even with this massive amount of play they still shift kinda ok. But the quality of the new shimano stuff is a joke compared to the old 11 speed

@addisonchen: You don't even need to do that. Just replace the orginal NX O-ring with a thicker O-ring. Very cheap and it makes the B-bolt very stiff too

Review: Versus All Mountain Trail Tires - Direct to Consumer & Straight to the Point
Good choice. Their enduro tires are great. Light, grippy, cheap. Very easy to set up tubeless.

Video: Tom Pidcock Going Warp Speed on a Road Bike
I was riding down a mountain pass like this last year on my full sus trail bike with a group. We had an average speed of almost 70km/h down there with some parts close to 100km/h Honestly, it was crazy fun and not scary at all. I think those super thin roady tires make it more scary than on a mountain bike.

Review: Shimano BR-MT420 4-Piston Brakes
@fstws6: Sadly they can get it too. My 6210's bitepoint started to wander at low temps around -15C Just like on my Saint's I changed the oil to Putoline HPX and the problem was gone. Also since the 6210 never felt as solid as Saint's I ditched the levers for Saint Levers, but keept the 6100 calipers. Way better brakes now

10 Things I Loved In 2022: Seb Stott
@nicoSB: I really like her. She destroys so many overhyped science things so easily and talks about how good, or bad they actually are. I also enjoy Kyle Hill, Arvin Ash and ScienceClic english

RAAW Mountain Bikes Offers Rolling Chassis Option
Would be nice if the forks came uncut. Honestly, it would be even nicer if all direct to consumer brands would offer an "uncut steerer tube" option.
