Manitou would do well to go back to the old typeface used on the Manitou X-Vert Carbon. The current typeface used on the single crown forks looks like MS Word.

I think because square is weaker and heavier? If you're thinking square is just easier to get the seat pointed straight ahead, I don't think that's a very big problem for the average rider.

Bike Check: Luke Wayman's Atherton A200G
@Canadmos: all rotors will warp slightly just in the course of normal riding. Not to mention they might be slightly out of true straight from the box. I have had TRP DHR evo’s and Hayes Dominion with Galfer 2.0mm rotors. I do spend a considerable amount of time tweaking things to keep things aligned and not rubbing. Sometimes it’s just a matter of using the park tool rotor bending tool to manual correct a slight rotor bend.

That would have been an awesome choice. Never met a single person who actually likes Pink's music.

Commencal Shares Details on the Updated Supreme DH V5.2 Downhill Frame
"We completely redesigned the brake system integration to achieve a stronger bite and more effective deceleration. This update also helps reduce rear brake overheating and eliminates unwanted vibrations." I don't understand what they actually did that would achieve this result. Can someone explain?

Loic Bruni Shares Update After Practice Crash at the Loudenvielle World Cup
@gregnangatang: I had a seemingly minor dislocation of my left index finger. No broken bone and started doing physical therapy fairly quickly. That finger hurt for months. It's fine a few years later, but not the same as it was. Fingers are tricky fuckers.
