First Look: Race Face Era eMTB Wheels Come With Big Claims
Does the rear hub shell still use a 2-piece bonded construction method? I love my Turbine wheelset with Vault hubs, but had to warranty the rear hub due to creaking. Otherwise, they've been great and on par with more expensive wheelsets.

SRAM Releases Maven B1 Brakes - Lighter Action, Similar Power
SRAM's Contact Point Adjust dial also affects the leverage ratio, so you can get a lighter lever feel and more modulation by dialing it all the way in. And it's free.
Mike/Dario, can you ask SRAM to provide data for the A1 with CPA dialed in to add to the Maven Comparison graphic and comment as to what pros/cons there are to using CPA vs. new linkage and/or calipers?

Review: Fair Bicycle's Drop Best Offset Saddle Clamp Looks Weird, Works Great
I run the Drop Best on several bikes with OneUp V3 droppers and they seem to actually improve dropper performance slightly (ie. less binding). Highly recommend them for anyone looking for a more upright climbing position/shorter seated reach. They're not cheap, but they're the cheapest way to modify your frame's existing geometry and significant improve climbing comfort and performance.

Check Out: Seat Angle Adjuster, Hip Pack, Tools & Protection
The Drop Best offset seat clamps are amazing! There are a lot of otherwise great bikes out there that have fairly slack seat tube angles and these clamps provide an easy fix. I've bought four to run on various bikes and they immediately improve climbing performance and comfort for me. Installation is a bit of a faff because you can configure them in so many different ways (forwards, backwards, different stack heights, bolt lengths, etc), but they have been worth every penny.

Review: 2025 Knolly Warden - Pushing the Limits of Long, Low, & Slack
I've been on a Warden since last November. Suspension feels great. Supple and composed without the the extra noise, drag and general faff of high pivot. Seat tube length and dropper insertion mean I could run a 240mm dropper. Bike's been quiet and maintenance free so far. Knolly's sizing is bit different so I ended up choosing a small which feels similar to the medium Transition Patrol and medium Rocky Altitude I owned before. Highly recommend as an aggressive enduro or freeride/park bike.

SQlab Introduces New 6OX 2.2 Saddle with Even Shorter Nose for Greater Freedom of Movement
Nice to have the option of a shorter nose. I've gradually switched all my bikes over to SQ Lab saddles (either 611 or 60X), and while I've never noticed the nose getting in the way or caught on my shorts, more clearance is generally a good thing. Especially on bikes with steeper seat tube angles where you're not needing to shift your weight onto the nose of the saddle anymore.

Review: Transition's New Regulator CX eMTB
Transition gets it. Short cranks, high rise bars, TRP brakes, steep STA, reasonable reach, good dropper insertion, lightweight (for a full power eeb). I'd prefer if the rear shock came stock with a 65mm stroke to bump the rear travel up to 160, but not a deal breaker. Well done!
