Review: 2020 Nukeproof Reactor 290c RS
Love this! Still riding a Mega TR275 which has the same travel at both ends, albeit on 27.5" wheels, and a very similar horst link. If I was in the market this would be right up there as a replacement, even the colour is nearly the same!
31.1lbs seems quite porky for a carbon bike though; in fact it's virtually the same published weight as my overbuilt aluminium monster! Where did all the weight savings go, the cassette and wheels?

Colorado Man Passes Away While Riding Whistler's Comfortably Numb Trail
@Levin192: Edited to say: I feel somewhat misled. I had drawn the conclusion that I could use the app without any form of data connection. That's not the case - which makes it a proprietary version of getting GPS coordinates via Google Maps. I've uninstalled the app.
Thanks to @dakuan for the reading material

Colorado Man Passes Away While Riding Whistler's Comfortably Numb Trail
@schofell84: Are you joking? You'd sooner they spent an hour looking for me waving my phone torch around?

We should all have a little app called what3words installed on our phones. If you ever get into bother the emergency services/your friends will know where you are to the nearest 3 metres and keep the time you're waiting to be found to a minimum.
RIP, it sounds like the app probably wouldn't have helped this poor guy, but you never know what's around the corner... ride safe all!

@DangerDavez: Meh, for the sake of half an hour's work swapping it out it does sound like the better choice. Replace the whole thing with 10sp SLX and sell the SX, it wouldn't cost you much either.

The Kurvyflats Mudguard is a New Twist on the Basic Flat Fender
Fuck you all, I kinda like it. Looks better than a Mudhugger in my opinion, and is clearly more effective than a MuckyNutz etc. It's a mudguard anyway, it's not like I'm fitting it for the aesthetic or the cool points...

First Look: The 2020 Specialized Kenevo Aims to Replace Your Shuttle Truck
"From a distance, the Kenevo strikes a profile that looks like a non-motorized bike"
Is that distance... several miles? It looks gopping awful, like any bike with a motor bolted to the bottom bracket. Painting those bits black does little to improve things.
