Pinkbike Poll: How Reliable Are Modern Mountain Bikes?
Some people are just harder on components. I have successfully run extremely light components on my bikes (including downhill bikes) without issue, whilst friends have borked heavy duty parts on the same trails at the same speeds. Knowing what you can get away with and riding accordingly is a valid part of the puzzle

Pinkbike Poll: What Was the Greatest Advancement In Mountain Bike Technology?
Nobody has mentioned threadless headsets?
Threaded crap and quill stems were a disaster for mountain biking!
How about allen headed bolts?
Cartridge bearings?
Aluminum rims?
Cassette type freehub bodies?

First Look: DT Swiss' New 1900 Spline Wheelsets
I find it hard to fault DT wheels. Yeah, a lot of people dislike Ali nipples, but they don't phase me at all. My favorite factory wheelset of all time was the EX1750 which i had for years on a few different bikes. My Jeffsy now has XM1700s which i had planned to upgrade straight away, but after riding them for a while i really like them and don't think i'll probably bother unless i break em.
