"You there, fill it up with petroleum distillate, and re-vulcanize my tires, post haste!"

Specialized Purgatory / Trail Control Tire Review: A Pleasant Surprise
Onza Porcupines fit this area of business as well and I've been using them for the last 4 seasons and loving it. Fast and predictable and none of that traction gap between center to side knobs that DHF's always had. When I had a dedicated DH bikes, DH tires were the best of course, but on a 160mm bike that has to go up and down, they're needlessly draggy and slow for no reason, just to have them for the 1-2 weeks a year at a bike park out of 3-5 days a week every other week. Much happier all around with "less tire."

Pinkbike Poll: Are You a Brand Loyalist?
Cane Creek shocks. Hope hubs. Thomson seat posts. Diety handlebars. DT spokes/brass nips/EX471 or 511 rims.
The rest... whatever works well and is reliable and/or is on sale, I don't really care as long as I don't have to wrench. Will forever keep those specific things on all my bikes unless the company takes a wrong turn as far as quality/reliability. They just always work, and they work well.

Review: Zink Vacay - The Responsive Freestyle Specialist
was gonna say as I was reading, I immediately thought of the old Kona Entourage single crown freeride thing that Aggy used to ride back in the day. I get people not wanting something too far out of balance depending on their size, but short chainstays are the best. For bikes where your objective is "to have fun." good on Zink.

Photo Epic: CORECROSS Whistler 2026 - The Best Spectator Event in MTB
This is how Rampage felt to us when the tickets were $15 and you could just show up and sit wherever you wanted and everyone was chillin and it wasn't filled with a million sand bags and groomed features.
