First Ride: SRAM's New GX Transmission

My garmin watch has been in my gym bag for over 4 months now because I always forget to charge it. There's no way I'll remember to charge my deraillure battery.

First Look: Commencal Release The Race Proven Supreme DH V5

Indeed, their frames are ~$2000 equivalent locally w/o shock. I can build up the same full built bikes for 10% cheaper without shopping for bargains and getting the frame from them. Whilst all bike prices have gone crazy, Commencal's really been taking the piss lately; they are 20-30% more expensive than the equivalent speced alloy Specialized/Giant/Trek.

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

Sciu Launches a Carbon Enduro Bike With Ambitious Sustainability Goals

I wonder how much of these tree planting they're sponsoring is actually just going to the commercial forestry. It wouldn't be a bad idea if the Brazilian government auctioned off the rainforest to these companies for green/CO2 credits. Instead of them cutting/burning down the forest, and corporates greenwashing with the half-arsed initiatives, we end up preserving our most valued ecosystems.
