Elastomers Are Back? SRAM Patents 'ButterCups For Shocks'
Sooo... could they make this an aftermarket upgrade, at least for certain frames? I feel like if the bike's hardware allows it, it could be put in between any rear shock and its mounting hardware.

Tested: Do Short Cranks Work For Tall Riders?
I (196cm) tried a few lengths of cranks on my drop bar bike a bunch of years ago, trying 175, 170, 172.5, and 180. I did NOT like the shorter cranks, even after a few weeks of getting used to it. Eventually I settled on 180s for that bike. I've got 175s on my mountain bike now, and I'll probably keep those for a while, unless I get a screaming deal to try something different.

@sngltrkmnd: stand em up and strap them that way. I kept my bike like that when I had a pickup. A single ratchet strap once around the stem (a different spot may work better for you) held it tight, even over rough dirt roads.

Mountain Cycle made disc brakes for their San Andreas frame and Suspender (?) USD fork. Hayes definitely had the first widely available, decent brake. They pioneered Post Mount, and their 22mm standard was basically Flat Mount but 20 years earlier.

@Glenngineer: Genesis was the original iteration. GF is a tall guy and finally got sick of boat tillers on his bikes. Stems used to get out to like 150mm and Genesis I think took about 40mm off of that. He just pushed the head tube forward, made a tight rear triangle, and sent it.
