CamelBak Announces Custom Bottle Program with No Minimums & Fast Turnaround Times
@radatabs: You're right about the cheap part. I produce a lot of branded swag for my job and there was a bottle craze for a while. I actually had to ditch plans with both Hydro Flask and Stanley though as we found out they had plastic linings containing PFAS in the bottles we were looking to use. This was during the big transition away from PFAS after the California bans and new laws. Doubt they still offer it with those linings now though.

CamelBak Announces Custom Bottle Program with No Minimums & Fast Turnaround Times
@ElCabraMontes: be sure to always do your research. Most metal water bottles are lined with a plastic (or similar) layer. Dumbest thing ever yet so common

Cannondale Will Shut Down Connecticut Headquarters By Mid-2027, Laying Off 143 Workers
maybe they'll finally build some sick dirtbikes with the money left over!
Seriously though, I would really love to see that happen. Some real visionaries behind the start of the brand

Carbonwasp Updates Truffle with Aluminum Linkage, Recycled Carbon Fiber
Such a cool brand. Seems like crazy good prices for locally made CF frames made at small scale too. I kinda wanna try one of their gearbox bikes

Devinci Teases New DH Bike
@sanchofula: only done a handful of rides on it so far. Been having my dad tow me up hills with his e-bike and one of those bungee strap things haha
It took me a few laps to feel familiar and I had to go up about 125 lbs in suggested spring weight. Last few black line laps were smooooooooth though. It’s a very cushy ride even with 2 tokens and 90 psi in the front and a 550 coil in the rear. Can’t wait to try it on some scarier stuff next year

Chromag Announces the Rift V2 Kneepad
Yeah my 7IDP Sam Hill knee pads were pretty pricey too at $110 but I only paid that once about 3 years ago maybe? Now I just hit them up every year and get a new set for $55 with their half off replacement program. Hard to beat that.
If Chromag offered something similar I would definitely try them out. I feel like the owe me since its the damn Dagga pedals that keep tearing up mine ha

Review: Teewing Flux One Pro - A Self-Shuttling Freeride Sled
Thats why the Nicolai R20 makes so much sense to me. Just a burly overbuilt 200mm travel downhill E-bike with a big ass battery as well. That thing could get up and down almost anything.
If only it wasnt 17k and another 2-3k to ship ha.
