Knolly Bikes Enters Receivership & Evaluates Restructuring

@pistol2ne: > the Canada to US tarrif is 15% If you've been hit with tariffs and have looked at the customs form, you'll quickly find out that it's not any one tariff that gets you, it could be a dozen different ones. 15% coming from Canada, but if the bearings were manufactured in China, you'll probably see 6 more tariffs applied. I tried to order some stuff from Germany with the same thought as you, "I guess i can deal with at 15% additional cost". But I was soon hit with a bill from the shipper for 89% of the order cost due to all the other tariffs that I was not prepared for.

U.S. Budget Proposal Includes Plan to Sell 3 Million Acres of Public Land

If the maps are to be believed, pretty much all the trails in the Sedona area are at risk along with great spots in the St. George/Hurricane area (Grafton and Wire Mesa in particular).

Roundup: The Bike Racks of Crankworx Whistler 2024

Probably any that use a front wheel tray, so they are essentially only touching your tires. Ideally also with enough space between trays to prevent pedals from contacting frames as the cranks end up rotating (strapping pedals works too). Extra spacing can also help prevent issues with brake levers rubbing on top tubes, etc. We drive dirt roads to get to all the good trails near us and the velocirax 5x has been great (the 'x' is for the extra space between trays vs their normal 5 tray rack).

OneUp Announces New V3 Dropper Post

@Kamba6: do people who keep suggesting this think that bowel movements are optional and that there are a bunch of cyclist that are opting out?

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly: What Pinkbike's Editors Actually Carry on Rides

@paulskibum: I'm now picturing a woman in a russian SHERP blasting through the remote parts of the forest wreaking destruction just to pick up a dude with a flat tire that couldn't be bothered to bring some plugs and a mini pump.

First Ride: Ibis HD6 - Mixed Wheels & More Travel

I think the Ibis site is wrong. Ibis just sent out their announcement email and it lists 34.9: "34.9mm seat tube ID for stiffness and durability with droppers over 200mm"
