Pinkbike Poll: Do You Use Your Climb Switch?
I answered from the perspective of my trail bike with an air shock, where I never use the climb switch for any reason. My 175mm enduro bike with a coil shock I use the climb switch for every climb.

Pinkbike Poll: Do You Need Downtube Storage?
@p2rida: That's what I pack into my Swat box. It packs down so small and is comfortable to pedal in. I also have a 7mesh Copilot as well but don't need that day to day in Kamloops in the summer so I don't bother having it clogging up my frame storage. I bring on trips to the coast and it straps to the frame but can also fit it into my Swat box if I do some rearranging.

Pinkbike Poll: Do You Need Downtube Storage?
I like my swat box for putting a lightweight jacket and tube into, but that's it. Anything else I would need more frequently is annoying to dig out of the box. I have a second bike with no frame storage so I was strapping a tube and tools to the frame. Also annoying to undo the straps and lay everything out on the ground to find what you need then put it all back together again. My fav combo is a tube strapped to the frame or inside the swat box, and multitool/links/plugs/etc inside my Oneup pump that is mounted to my water bottle cage. I can easily swap the pump to whichever bike I am riding and always have what I need and can get from my pump in seconds if I need it.

18 Bikes That Could Be Updated in 2024
G16 was replaced by the G1 years ago. I own a g16 as well and not looking for an upgrade either. I was looking at a G1 but frame shape makes it so you can't fit a waterbottle in front of the shock mount in the front triangle. My XXL g16 fits a normal sized bottle there was a specialized side load cage.

Review: 2024 YT Jeffsy Core 4 - A Good Friend
I had a YT years ago and wouldn't buy one again due to the bad customer service in Canada. Took months to get responses and the German/US offices didn't want to get involved with Canadian customers (to my understanding it was only one canadian employee working for YT so it wasn't totally his fault). Any improvements on that front?

Review: Atherton 130.X - The Lugged Carbon Cruiser
Yeah 11 sizes is sweet but their XXL is still too small. 6'5 here and I agree.

Review: 2023 Transition Smuggler - The Little Ripper
I wanted a Smuggler so bad but in Canada the frame is $5000. I drove across the border and bought an S Works stumpjumper frame for $2300 cad ($1750 USD). Almost 3 grand price difference between the two frames? Come on.
