Review: BMB Reverse Raise Stem - The Stem That Wants to Change Mountain Biking
Those 3 cons... at least it didn't fail.
Add to the fact that the riders that don't laugh at you will talk your ear off at the trailhead about it. They might even follow you home telling you all about their Acromio-clavicular Joint Dislocations... talking the whole way

Santa Cruz Hightower CC XX AXS RSV- Medium
$10000 CADThe latest and greatest edition of the Hightower, the perfect do it all MTB. Equipped with SRAM's next generation Eagle wireless transmission this is the best shifting bike I have had the pleasure of riding.
Upgraded to a Reverb AXS dropper post this bike is ultra clean with just brake cables to look at and a Chromag saddle. Other than that it is a stock build, although it is tough to refer to this build as stock... carbon reserve wheels on I9 hydra hubs and a Lyric Ultimate upfront. MSRP new - $14399, Reverb AXS adds another $1000.
Full spec here - https://www.santacruzbicycles.com/en-CA/bikes/hightower#overview
Bought new May 2023. Hasn't been dropped or crash (knock on wood) I don't even think there is a scratch on it.
Treat yourself today!

It Looks Like 'Snow Biking' Could Earn a Rainbow Jersey & UCI Ranking Points in 2024
@mattg95: I guess it depends on what the UCI defines as a snow bike. If it is what is sometimes referred to as Ski Bob it's an incredible amount of fun. Any ski hill could presumably hold a race, DH, GS, Slalom...

If it is a regular tired bike on snow, then that would be awful. Fun to do, terrible watch others doing it

GCN+ to Close as Warner Bros. Discovery Looks to Consolidate Streaming Services [Updated with Information from WBD]
I suspect (for Canada at least) that the coverage ends up on Flosports. So between DH races we can catch up on the World Championships of barber shop quartet and team cheerleading events.
