SRAM Patent Shows Smarter Built-In ShockWiz on Forks & Shocks
Can anyone offer a current review of the shockwiz? I see they are currently on sale...
Is it worth it? Were the recommended changes useful?
Would you buy/rent it again?

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly: What Open Face Helmets Pinkbike's Editors Actually Wear
It is very very important to wear a helmet that fits comfortably. Being hot or uncomfortable can lead to other issues.
I highly recommend people wear the safest helmet that fits them well.
But from the objective crash test data there is a difference between these two helmets:
The laser coyote is ranked 80th with a score of 12.65
The atb-2t is ranked 20th with a score of 10.03 (lower is better)
While I 100% agree everyone should wear a 5 star rated helmet, the Virginia Tech data shows that one may offer more protection than another.

Thank you for adding a bit of time and blank screen before showing the pinkbike logo vs hiding the last save behind it!

Lazer Introduces New Rotational Impact Protection System Called KinetiCore
The two most important things in a helmet to me are proper fit and how well it can protect my head
It looks like the rankings on VT's website got updated
https://www.helmet.beam.vt.edu/bicycle-helmet-ratings.html
The Jackal MIPS is ranked at 29th vs the Jackal Kineticore is ranked at #74.
It is interesting tech, but the first generation does not seem to offer "more" or "better" protection than MIPS.
