Bike Check: Oisin O'Callaghan's Trek Session Prototype
@TEAM-ROBOT: I was thinking this should work well in theory, as the front does most of the work I've always run it bigger ( and still do), but I reckon a bigger rear rotor could keep the bike more planted and stable - and perhaps make riding steeps a touch more intuitive?

I don't really approve of the wild power Avinox are offering, but their enabling of slimmer ebike downtubes is a massive leap forward in reducing the need for eye bleach.

Head to Head: 2026 Santa Cruz Tallboy vs. 2020 Norco Optic
This was an fun watch. It would be interesting to take a slightly more planned approach and maybe build up a 2020-ish frame to mimic a current bike as closely as possible. To see if careful building can bring it up to match the minor advances in geometry since then.

Amaury or Loris for the men's elite. The location is so close to France, I feel one of them will take it.
