Review: Silt's $1,000 Carbon XC Wheels
Nice review. Like the comparisons to some of the other wheelsets in this category.
Definitely looking forward to long-term follow ups on durability, and how they compare to some of the heavier options available. Thanks Mike!
I've been riding a WR1 Agent 29 wheelset that checks in at 1900g and has been bomb-proof for me, so something like the Roval Control looks really nice as a potential lighter "trail" upgrade.

Preview: Antidote's New Trail Bike - The Woodsprite
mikekazimer "We'll report back once all of the final details have been unveiled. Unfortunately there's no review coming tomorrow, but we'll certainly try to get one in to test out."
Cool. Is that going to be on pinkbike or beta?
I was hoping for a follow up from Matt Beer and his first ride reserve 30 hd wheels. Is that yet to come?
Sarah Moore did an "announcement" article for the reserve 30 sl. It would be great to hear her review and opinion of that wheelset. Is it yet to come?
I truly hope the reserve "Testing" article on beta is not the follow up to pinkbike content. That would be a shame.
So is this the new norm?

Review: Specialized Ambush 2 Helmet
Virginia Tech is providing a great service with their testing, but I must admit I sort of struggle with their rating system.
The system consists of a star and numeric rating. There are 77 5 star rated bicycle helmets with a numeric rating from 8.55 for the best to 13.99 for the worst. We have already seen people saying that the Tactic 4 is the "safest" or the "best" helmet. How big is the actual difference between 5 star number 1 and 5 star number 77 and outside of personal fit, is there any reason to look at anything other than say, the top 5 helmets?

Review: Giant Realm Helmet - Comfortable Extra Coverage
Would really like to see a good review of the Kali Invader 2.0 compared to half-shell helmets like this.
Most reviews of the Kali seem to focus on the fact that it's not DH rated, but it's not meant to be.
If looking at something like this Realm wouldn't the Invader make more sense?

Field Test: 2022 Scor 4060 ST - Fast & Filthy
But what I think we all really want to know is...how does it compare to the Spur?? lol
Actually, I'd like to know how the test bikes compared to the 20-21 flex stay Stumpjumper.
The Scor looks like a great bike and has piqued my interest!
