2026 Sea Otter Downhill Results: A First Win for a 32" Mega Mullet Bike
The Fox Podium dropping at the same time 32" wheels are going mainstream is no coincidence.
Now, where is the new Shiver?

April Fools Jokes From Around the Bike Industry - 2026
If the 27.5" debacle was anything to go by, then 30.5" wouldn't shock me if it really was there on April 2nd.

Olympic Champion Sir Chris Hoy Breaks His Leg in 'Worst Crash I’ve Ever Had' While Mountain Biking
My dad had terminal cancer. I remember when I was changing a clutch on my car, he pushed me aside and got right under himself to swing spanners. I know it was the things like that kept him here longer than the doctors predicted. He could still live like he wanted to, and Chris is doing exactly that. May he be around for many years to come!

32-inch Wheels Will Be Permitted in UCI XC Racing in 2026
Fox and friends bringing in their inverted forks to market is no coincidence. We'll be seeing 32" on longer travel bikes soon enough.

5 Tech Trends From Eurobike 2025
@chrismac70: Maybe Fox wants to be ahead of the pack and foresees 32" wheels becoming a new trend? Test the tech on the high-end stuff on people willing to "fork" out the cash, and allow the trickle down later when USDs becoming standard on the bigger wheels across the board. Also would explain the slightly less travel as the bigger wheels don't need it.
If you see an enduro bike with a modified-crown Podium and 32" wheel at a major racing event, then that all but confirms my crazy speculation.

5 Tech Trends From Eurobike 2025
If Marzocchi releases a new Shiver SC without Kashima and a lower-spec damper, they will print money.
They're part of Fox, so it should be easy.
