Devlin Cycles Announces Jester V5 With Updated Geometry & 3D-Printed Parts
Eh, I don't see how this is a hefty price at all. Around 3900€ sounds like steal tbh considering what you're getting. A Santa Cruz Bronson frame only (CC) is almost exactly the same, and you're getting chinese carbon. Ofcourse, import taxes will raise the price but if I lived in(/were to visit) australia and was in the market for a new frame, I'd strongly consider one.
Looks amazing, great job!

Revel Bikes to Shut Down Amid Industry Challenges
@shapethings: You've got a two party system (which fucking sucks), get over it. Even if one party are dysfunctional neoliberals, the other one is a death cult hell-bent on dragging the rest of the world along in your downward spiral. If you can't see the difference between those, no wonder your country is in the state that is.
Cynicism is a fine political ideology when you're 15 years and an edgelord, but unconstructive brainrot afterwards. If your politicians suck, get to work replacing them, push them where you want them to be. Sure did seem to work for the other party.

Great video, amazing riding and the track looks absolutely mint.

First Ride: Fox Neo Feels Like the Next Step in Electronic Suspension
Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of electronics on bikes and I certainly don't need the marginal gains from electronic lockout, but if they make a shock that setups automatically, I'll buy that. I would imagine that from a machine learning standpoint, it wouldn't be even too difficult to develop as long as the sensors in the shock are decent. I don't mind working on my bike, but suspension setup is just the worst ever - happy to outsource everything related to it.

Now THAT Was a Bike: 2016 Pole Evolink
@ironhorse-rider: this, exactly this.
I remember having my Transition Scout serviced sometime in 2019, and the lbs loaned me a Pole Evolink demo bike in the meanwhile. While I loved my Scout, the Evolink was just so much more capable. I was (and am) a pretty slow rider, but I felt like I’d unlocked a few cheat codes while riding on it.
However, even then I remember being weirded out by how Pole was run. They’d just brought out the Machine a while ago, then the Stamina like a year after. Which ofcourse looked great on paper and even rode wonderfully when I demoed one, but didn’t feel like participating in public beta testing. Which of course turned out to be a great decision in hindsight.
Shame really, had the potential to be great bikes.

First Look: 2024 Commencal Meta SX V5
@Muscovir: Carbon frames shouldn't be much of a selling point though. But yeah, Commencal doesn't seem to be trying to compete with other DTC brands when it comes to pricing anymore. If they don't have to, good on them.
The frame prices are dumb, but I do think the 4500€ Essential (or the 4100€ Meta 29 essential) model seems like a pretty good deal all in all, way more appealing than either Propain Tyee or Canyon's Torque. Tyee has cable tourism (and while looks are highly subjective, I do kinda hate the look of Propain's suspension layout) and the Torque has stupidly short chainstays. Only heard praise for the previous generation of Meta SX as well and the geometry seems to be pretty bang-on. Thinking I'll sell my current bike and get one.

Sixpack Announces New Internal Cable Routing System
I do love the way the term cable tourism has made it's way already into press releases. It's kinda like Orwell said, “It's a beautiful thing, the destruction of words.” Headset routing as a term is on it's way out, soon the actual routing will follow.

First Ride: Devinci's Chainsaw is a Canadian-Made Park Ripper
Goddamnit, absolutely love this at first glance, can't wait for proper reviews. I'm so tempted to get the DH model, swap the drivetrain to XT and put a dropper on it.

@TwoNGlenn: Andor was absolutely amazing though, best SW since Empire strikes back.
