Garbaruk 10 x 50 Wide-Range 11-Speed Cassette for SRAM XD Drivers - Review
Haven't kept track of the distance. I've been riding it on the Diamondback in between other test bikes for a while, so it's been racking up the miles over the winter/spring months (in good weather). Wear is as least as good as the SRAM 1195 cassette. (Note: silver teeth don't look as worn as black ones do, because they don't change color.) The Garbaruk's aluminum teeth look the same as my Eagle XX1 over the same time.

It's just to illustrate the aftermarket cage.

Syntace C33i Straight Carbon Wheelset - Review
2pheller: Carbon rims are stiffer and hold their shape better, so the spokes play more of a structural role and less are needed. At Comparative weights, many aluminum rims need more spokes to both maintain trueness and structure. Ironically, Mavic pioneered the stiffer-rim/fewer-spoke design with its aluminum wheels, but the principles are the same.

Formula Introduces A New Technology for Air Suspension
@hamancheez Because the beauty of an air spring is that you can raise or lower the overall rate with a 20 dollar pump.

First Ride: Ibis Ripmo - Long-Travel 29er
@ReformedRoadie: Tall riders need longer stays, and probably steeper seat tube angles. Short riders, not so much. That needs to be addressed industry wide. Your reference to hill-climb motos doesn't fly, though. They actually climb steep grades, and they have surplus power. Mountain bikes? Um, no.

Henty Enduro Backpack - Review
@TheR: The Henty loads the hips, like high-end backpacks. It's way better to ride with than a hydration pack for load-bearing comfort and stability.
