Video: Shiggy Mac Hits Handbuilt Shore Lines on Kona’s Process X
@noplacelikeloam: This is how it was for years with NORCO bikes. One year it was a ‘Team DH’, the next year it was an ‘A-Line’. It was impossible selling a used ‘Team DH’ for more than new ‘A-Line’ money. Ask me how I know…. Lol

Spotted: Unreleased Trek High-Pivot Enduro Bike
@HeatedRotor: Oh gosh, I think you’re onto something here. I wasn’t sure which Fuel you were referring to so I had a look at the new Fuel EX. For a size medium the head-tube length is 100mm. I ride a Transition Scout (also 150mm/140mm) and my size medium is 125mm. My very basic math tells me that’s 25% more (lol) which I’m prepared to call significant. I wonder what TREK’s rationale is behind this design decision. TREK, you out there???

Spotted: Unreleased Trek High-Pivot Enduro Bike
I wonder if it’s just a VERY tall rider. I’m not one to typically comment on peoples’ set-ups (largely because I don’t care), but that is a LOT of forward bar-roll and it makes me wonder if TREK didn’t have a larger frame for them to test so they are attempting to get as much rise in the front end as possible.

Review: 3 Unique Carbon Handlebars Built for Comfort from We Are One, OneUp, & Title
@jdejace: I have the OneUp EDC headset which requires the special tool for removal. Moreover, I don’t have a second stem (or 3D printed spacer) to reinstall in its place.

Review: 3 Unique Carbon Handlebars Built for Comfort from We Are One, OneUp, & Title
@bman33: It’s a very good point nonetheless. I didn’t consider it when I purchased my OneUp bars (I didn’t like the multiple pieces of the We Are One system), but I’ve flown a few times with my bike which require the bars to be removed from the stem and I can’t imagine needing to remove the controls in the process.

I think you mean ‘We Are One’. OneUp can be used with any 35mm stem. I run a 40mm Race Face Affect R 35.

First Ride: The New GT Sensor Loses Weight, Gains Travel
I’m surprised to see so many negative comments toward the logo. Moreover, I think this is the best looking GT bike I’ve ever seen, but it seems they missed the mark in a few places. More specifically, I’m disappointed in the aluminum chainstay.

First Look & Ride: Yeti's New SB135
I recently bought a Transition Scout (150mm/140mm; dual 27.5”), so I approve.
