Rebecca Henderson Ruptured Ankle Ligament Ahead of Australian National XC Championships

@paulskibum: Thanks that is what I always do, too. I just wanted to place my wish on the authors of content here to use fewer abbreviations in general.

ATFL, CFL, PTFL ??? As a not native English speaker, I would appreciate it if you could avoid using all these abbreviations in the future. Thank you

The Pinkbike Podcast - The Field Test Roundtable

Thanks for the great discussion. I am surprised how you weigh the pros and cons of specific bikes. How can the noisiest bikes that constantly lose the chain or have bearing issues from day one ever make it to the top of the list just because of excellent geometry? I would never ever recommend a bike to a friend on which s/he would need to replace the bearings every month.

Field Test: 2023 Scott Genius ST - Cape Not Included

Is the geometry change in climb mode not really helping when things get steep? I liked this improved body position when I rode the previous model.

Who cares, the versions for half the prize will ride basically the same besides being about kilo heavier

Here's That £300 3D-Printed Titanium Stem You Wanted

Even with ports for internal cable routing. This is the future and exactly what my 20k bike was missing

The Pinkbike Podcast: Episode 153 - Headset Cable Routing is... Good?

@Kaz: I am confused. A cable mess like on the Scotts is terrible, a clean cockpit with AXS is terrible, a clean routing through the headset is terrible, ... I honestly just ride my bike and do not care too much. I destroyed many lower headset bearing but rarely an upper one. And if it happens after some years it is probably not a bad idea to give my brakes a bleed, too. I dislike the internal routing with guides but without clamps at the ports much more. My previous Santa Cruz was rattling constantly due to this. I think many companies like Canyon, Orbea, Mondraker, etc. do an ok job with the headset routing by just going through the headset top cap, allowing for normal spacers and stems. However, the focus stem would be a real dealbraker for my. That seems like the worst of both worlds with extra complication for a terrible look.

Maxxis Updates Forekaster Tire for Downcountry - Eurobike 2022

@mikekazimer: Thanks for the advice. If the Dissector is really heavier their webpage is very wrong or they have huge inconsistencies and just measured the heaviest Forekaster and the lightest Dissector ever. https://maxxistires.de/produkt/dissector/? 29" x 2.40 WT 61 - 622 EXO TR 3C MaxxTerra 60 870g https://maxxistires.de/produkt/forekaster-2022/? 29" x 2.40 WT 61 - 622 EXO TR 3C MaxxTerra 60 945g
