Review: Giro's New Montaro III Helmet
The article should include a photo of it being worn taken from the sides and the back so that we can judge coverage.

Review: Giro's New Montaro III Helmet
@KermitUK: giro helmet always for me great, no matter the sport! Other helmet are usually a little short front to back or too wide side to side. So I think there are intended for heads a little more narrow and oval shaped when viewed from above top down.

Review: Fox Float X2 - Shock Week 2023
@matttie: if you're curious the real reason it failed is the piston and shim design created insane forces that the IFP could never keep up with. It causes cavitation on opposite side of the piston where the pressure drops to the point where the oil forms vapor bubbles. When these vapor bubbles move to regions of higher pressure, they collapse or implode, creating tiny shock waves. Look at the dyno graphs on ride monkey forum. Hilariously bad design.

Jun 24, 2022Looking for Hope Tech 3 Duo - Left Side
$200 USDHello pinkbike. I'm looking for a set of Hope Duo breaks. Any condition would be fine. Any parts would also be fine so I can put a system together myself if necessary. Last year I broke my neck mountain biking and am partially paralyzed on my right side. I'm able to ride now, but not able to control the brakes with my right hand. The duo setup is perfect in theory, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to get the hang of it. So instead of buying a new one for almost $400 I'd love to buy used and test it out. Please hmu if you got a pair! Or if you know someone at hope who can hook it up!
