Review: Yeti Goes Long With the Ultra-Adjustable LT
Wow, they seemed to have really hurt suspension feel with that insanely high (2010 XC bike) anti-squat. Bummer!

There's a Prototype 32" Bike in Trek's New Documentary
As I saw posted in here already, the 32" bike was shown off already (blurred out) in Trek Factory Racing's winter training video back a few months ago. They're racing a "prototype 29er" so far this season that will never see the light of day. It's a totally 100% finished carbon bike. They clearly cut the molds for it and were going to launch it, but never went into production because they knew their riders would be seen on the 32" wheel'd rig this year, and it would kill sales of the 29". Same issue for a few brands right now. I'm assuming they, and other teams (Scott, Specialized, etc.) are waiting for SRAM and Fox to have the 32" SID in production as well as some tire stuff to get worked out and ramped up before they release their rigs.

No Derailleur, No Cassette: Gobao's New 1500W Motor Eliminates Traditional Shifting
They’re obviously working on a higher power system. Likely will start showing up in the next year if every OEM doesn’t go Avinox by then.

Tech Randoms: Lenzerheide XC World Cup 2026
They've got a 32" ready (has been seen in their video). Likely waiting for more tire options/Rockshox's native 32" fork to break cover. Not Thumas brought it out, they may drop theirs sooner than planned. Specialized is in a pickle though since they just dropped the Epic 9. Have to wait until later this summer to show off their 32" so they can clear all the 29er stock.

Race Ready: The 2026 Whistler Mountain Bike Park Season Begins May 15th
Stoked for the season! Bummer that Creekside opening delayed a week this year, given the very low snow year.

SRAM's Updated Ochain is More Durable and Less Expensive
@wburnes: Is a solid product but not on par with something like an O-chain.

SRAM's Updated Ochain is More Durable and Less Expensive
@bigmop: That's what SRAM Transmission is. Was designed for ebikes. Under load shifting, full (stiff) mount, etc.

Triple Win for AON Racing at the 2026 British National Downhill Series Opener
@bemorebikes: He's not trying to imply they're on Rulezman stems; it appears he's saying that the position the Rulezman and Be More put the rider in is great. But it was written poorly, which makes it sound like he is. haha
