Solving the Dropper Post Dilemma
My thoughts are that bent seat tubes are here to fit more riders onto a given frame, since a slacker seat tube will lengthen the cockpit more with increased seat height. A straight, steep seat tube will clear the rear wheel just as well or better than a bent seat tube.

Raaw Madonna - Press Release and Interview
Boost an no boost is not something that should be solved with interchangeable dropouts, since boost is a wider system (it includes the front chainring position).
At this point, with a new bike, you go boost and metric, that's it.

Loïc Bruni POV Chaos at Red Bull Fox Hunt
No with. "You hung up the reigning world champ" is more accurate :D

Have Your Say on the Ever-Changing Bike Standards
@fluffyreddragon: This is what i want. Why the hell do we have overhanging caliper mounts and axles extending under them towards the spoke flange and ever widening hub shells, if we have all that space there for free?? As Hope showed you can doo Boost flange spacing in under 140 mm of width.
I don't have much of a problem with rotor sizing as it currently stands, but move the damn rotor all the way to the frame and then use the space to move the spoke flanges apart without the frame getting wider.

2017 EWS Finals: Finale Ligure, Italy - Race Day 2 Photo Epic
Google Birra Moretti. It's a beer can alright.
It could also be from a mechanic or someone else in the team or it could be from a day before. Or it could be from a mechanic from a day before.
Or the photo could in fact actually be taken after the race. Though it says it was taken on 1. 10. 2017 at 8:25. So i guess we can conclude it was taken before the racing begun.

The Bike That Won the Championship - Finale Ligure EWS 2017
@OriginalDonk: most DH racers as far as i have seen run 25 mm internal width rims (EX471s). DT's enduro racers did the same for quite a while. A colleague of mine also said that his Flow Mk3s (30 mm internal) wear out normal 2.3-ish High Rollers unevenly, so it looks like a wide trail tyre for 30 mm rims is a must.
Give me 25 mm rims then! :P

A Day in the Life of Yeti EWS Mechanic Shaun Hughes
If there's a failure with the shifting in any way other than the cable head (in the shifter) shearing off, a lot of the situations are still fixable. A riding buddy's failed shifter (stuck in the hardest gear, luckily on the descent) was fixed by tightening the cable on the derailleur so much that he had middle of the cassette gear for the rest of the ride (i guess having a 2x system would be beneficial in a situation like this).
As long as the cable doesn't break with like 3 cm left from the head or the head shearing off, you could do the same directly on the derailleur, thread the head into the start of the cable guide on the derailleur itself and just tighten the cable to the gear you want.

@xeren: That would make sense, the way you described it.
