Review: 2023 Canyon Neuron CF 9
@powturn: oh man can you pls give a quick blurb on how u felt stumpy compared to izzo? Stumpy would probably fit me a little better but both are close enough.

Review: 2023 Canyon Neuron CF 9
Wish there were a better comparison than to the smuggler, anyone could have guessed that. The first comparison I thought of, and one I'm personally interested in hearing about since they both have XXL sizes, is to the Specialized Stumpjumper (regular, not EVO). Could anyone who has ridden both comment?

First Ride: Archibald Cycles' AC1 Doomsday Machine
That stack height is insanely low, I don't understand how that would work for anyone. Looking at the photo, the dropper is almost slammed and the saddle is at the same height as the bars.

Review: Akta's Trail Apparel & Protection Line
@AKTA-mtb: yeah that’s exactly my problem - your size medium and XL have less than an inch difference in inseam length. They just get wider. Its one thing if you are building wal-mart brand jeans for Americans, but if you are building technical apparel for “athletes” then wouldn’t it make sense to assume that people aren’t just getting fatter/wider as the size goes up?

Review: Akta's Trail Apparel & Protection Line
*sigh* yet another bike pant with only a 2” inseam change across sizes. 30.0” inseam for the XL - that’s just comical. I guess everyone is short and fat and manufacturers are convinced that tall athletic people don’t exist in cycling.

2022 Pinkbike Awards: Innovation of the Year Nominees
@colebmx: used to be the case but def not anymore with their 12 speed offerings. Yeah it shifts under load waaaay better for the first five rides, but then then you basically need to buy 2 new derailleurs a year to maintain that performance. Rebuildable clutch my ass, it’s just a tolerance and soft plastic issue :(

@tlilly89: this. I’ve had a bunch of friends buy them and I can’t think I’ve ever seen one work. They always have a tear/puncture at the valve stem. It’s comical at this point. Zero trust in that brand.
