Review: 7iDP Sam Hill & Sam Hill Lite Knee Pads
Had the regulars, but gave them away after taking a sharp rock to the kneecap through the vent holes. IMHO the vent holes are way too big. Good slide protection, but not great on direct impact.

Ibis Ripmo & Ripley Receive UDH Update & New Colors
@norcalbike: agree, current Ripley has nearly same geo/travel as the latest Scott Spark, just a bit heavier. 1 deg slacker + more rear progression (and maybe +10mm, too) and it'd be sweet. Loved the feel but wanted a bit more stability, so i got a flex-stay stumpy.

Ibis Ripmo & Ripley Receive UDH Update & New Colors
@FrankS29: yup, lotta folks around here going stumpy instead of ripley for that reason. Shame. Loved my Ripley, but wanted a bit more DH capability.

Review: Öhlins TTX2 Air Shock
@thechunderdownunder: that's where I'm at. A friend at a shop recommended an Ohlins or Float X, but it has me thinking I may just be trying a bit too hard to change what the bike is.

@golfman1: they did, but Pon swooped in at the 11th hour with a better offer and the ability to remain independent. (Pon also owns car dealerships, so they have operating experience.) Much better deal for Mike's IMHO. But, if I were S, I'd be a bit salty with the rug pull, too. They're just trying to match Trek with the vertical play.

both got WC wins. Trinity was supposed to be a bridge to the factory team.
