Pinkbike Poll: Clipless vs Flat - What's Your Pedal Preference?
@dancingwithmyself: I’ve also not been able to release from flats when crashing in multiple instances too. Clips allow you to release to the side and under force, which you can’t do with flats, instead you must lift your foot up and off the pedal, which can be difficult to do depending on where the force is coming from in a crash.

UCI Changes World Cup DH Rules with New Semi-Final Points, No Timed Training & More
XC racing is just more exciting to watch. There’s more competitors, more spectators, a ton of wheel to wheel passing, and well designed courses with multiple options. They need to try something different to bring back the excitement of dh rather than doing the same thing on the same 5 courses they’ve been racing for the last decade.

Bike Check: Nino Schurter's Custom 10-Time World Champion Scott Spark RC
Probably helps make up for small rotors, which have a bigger impact as rotating weight.

Pole's New 'Onni' DH Bike - Sea Otter 2023
I use a removable bottle mount above the top tube for some rides and it works just fine. If you’re riding with your crotch in front of the saddle and near the down tube then you’re doing something very wrong, if you’re anywhere close to that spot with your wang, you ain’t doing it right.

A Deeper Look At RockShox 2023 Fork Tech
I am a Rockshox fan, and I like the feel of the Charger, but I think a big unstated reason for the change to ifp is that the bladders have a failure problem for people who out a lot of hours on their forks. I’ve had 2 fail myself and had multiple friends with failures. They only last 2-3 seasons if you ride a lot.
That said, I’m excited to try the new version and the buttercups and see how they feel.
