First Look: Transition TransAM Steel Hardtail
@gubbinalia: I'm still riding my 2008 TransAM with 26" wheels. Such a fun bike. This may replace it finally though. Been waiting for a new Transition hardtail

First Look: Transition TransAM Steel Hardtail
$1700 is what I spent building up my original TransAm back in 2008.

First Look: Transition TransAM Steel Hardtail
I mean, the build isn't great, but the frame is the exact same price as the original version way back when I bought one in 2008 so as a frame build up I'm excited to finally replace my old TransAM.
Steel hardtails are just fun. I'll always have one in my quiver. This will be my winter project.

@Sambolo: Sounds like a shoe problem.. OneUps are grippy as hell.

Group Test: 14 of the Latest & Greatest Flat Pedals Reviewed
@OakleyVT: I literally have never notice an "axle bulge" and I run three pairs of OneUps on three different bikes. As a larger rider I've never broken one and ride them in the bike park at Trestle all season long.

Introducing the 2023 Pinkbike Racing Team
I was hoping you would be fielding an all Ben Cathro team. Every category. Every age division.

Video: Supernatural Speed on Forbidden's New Druid in 'Summoning'
There's that cringey marketing I love so much. Is it even worth riding a bike if my fundie mother doesn't give it an uncomfortable side-eye whenever she sees the headtube badge?

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly: Which Saddles Pinkbike's Editors Put on Their Own Bikes
I have loved this saddle for years. I have one on all of my bikes.
Cheap and feels good.

Review: 2023 Giant Reign Advanced Pro 1
@bikeblur: Eh.... I don't know. I have a Slayer that is just exhausting if you're not riding it on the steepest, chunkiest terrain. Compare that to something like the Altitude which is a much more well rounded bike and I'd probably reach for the Altitude on a race day.

Review: 2023 Giant Reign Advanced Pro 1
That's a whole other class of bike imo.
More Freeride or Super Enduro, less Enduro race bike...
