Aaron Gwin Comments on Injured Ankle, Broken Cranks, & More
Does it matter to you? He isn't pushy about his religion, doesn't blame his faults or negative on his religion and doesn't call anyone else out for not being his brand of religion. Would you prefer he 'blame Jesus' for his busted ankle, flat tire or broken crank? If you aren't religious, great. Neither am I but. But snark comments to a person who is, and is NOT a prick about it seems a bit BS and petty.
I will await my downvotes

Aaron Gwin Comments on Injured Ankle, Broken Cranks, & More
Agree, Kudos for Aaron and John for the candid interview. That said, my friend broke a set of Carbon e13 carbon DH cranks first run at Whistler on a turn on lower A-line. I have had a set of SixC's for multiple seasons, multiple Whistler trips, bike park laps in Colorado, races, etc....zero issue. Several other folks I know have issue with e13. Maybe that was the 'older stuff' or whatever. e13 the only thing I trust of theirs is chain guides

@DH-Angel: We don't agree with much from our previous posts. That said, you are 100% on point with this one. Seems like a supplier has had enough AND was miffed with the dog and pony show article a few weeks ago with Sick Bikes blaming suppliers for their cash flow issues.

First Look: Mondraker's F-Podium Brings Forward Geometry to XC Racing
The article itself says internal. "...seat tube with a 31.6mm diameter, which fits conventional dropper posts, along with internal routing."

Who says you can't put one on it? In the article itself: "...seat tube with a 31.6mm diameter, which fits conventional dropper posts, along with internal routing." Pick the model you like and you are good

Movies For Your Monday
I grew up BMX racing, riding street and such. That said, Sean Burns riding is 1) next level 2) punk as f*ck! My 40+ year old ankles would explode doing some of the drops to flat like he does.

Pinkbike Poll: What Would You Upgrade On Your Current Mountain Bike?
Don't buy another part for your bike unless you break it or wear it out. There you go.

Pinkbike Poll: What Would You Upgrade On Your Current Mountain Bike?
The older I get, the more this is relevant. To be able to ride whenever is the most valuable 'upgrade' one can ask for!

Pinkbike Poll: What Would You Upgrade On Your Current Mountain Bike?
Same here. I was broke much of my life and rode 80% or so of what I wanted. I am fortunate enough now to be able to build what I want AND to have friends managing shops for the occasional strategic discounts. That said, one can have fun on a $1000 bike and a $10000 bike.
