VHS Announces V-3 Chainstay Tape
It's tape - but this version is wide enough that it can wrap around the chainstay, meaning the seam sits at the back where your heel won't catch it. V2 suffered from this a lot, needed a couple of cable ties and a bit of tape to keep it in place on my bikes.
Minor gripe aside, it's a great product, I did two bikes with one pack, and they are quiet as

2023 Pinkbike Awards: Product of the Year Nominees
Some odd nominations here, given the reviews they had weren't very positive. A wheel with spokes that don't stay tight and cause the whole wheel to become floppy if one breaks (as it did on review).... maybe a candidate for prototype of the year, but not product.

Field Test Review: 2023 Unno Burn - You Know You're Curious

Spotted: Privateer's Prototype 161 Enduro Bike
One of the complaints about the old bike was that it was too short when seated (if you had a 90 degree seat angle, your reach and effective top tube would be the same), so slackening the seat angle will address that (assuming reach stays as is)
