Pinkbike Primer: Everything You Need to Know Ahead of the Loudenvielle DH World Cup 2023

It's incredible with all of the amazing trails that exist in the entire world, you put the best dh racers on raw fields that cut across machine built berms. Where's the beauty of an excellently built trail? Where's the gnar?

Pinkbike Poll: Are You Open To Electronics On Your Bike?

There is no going back from electronic shifting (AXS) once you feel the precision and ability to shift under load. Particularly important for technical climbing on my e-bike.

Review: The 2022 Specialized Turbo Levo is the New Benchmark

@sino428: For all the e-bike haters out there I would suggest trying one. For many people it's not about cheating excercise, it's about more. More miles, more descents, more fun! The steepest gnarliest uphills become fun challenges. Long XC rides are full of thrills. Long fire road climbs to the descents turn into road riding segments where you can push yourself and the bike hard up and then descend like a champ. Then do it again. All in the same time it used to take you to simply get to the top. Great for the working souls and family folk. If you drain the battery on a full ride, you are smoked with an awesome full body workout. Smiles for miles and don't knock it till you try it!
