Pinkbike's Tech Editors Pick Their Ideal MTB Geometry Numbers (2026 Edition)
@UtahJohn: that makes sense. I do find on my bike in pumice I have to really get forward and weight the front. Most my riding is hardpack though and trails I know well. Anyway thanks to the other people too that chimed in, definitely some food for thought.

How come people prefer longer rear centers? It’s always been explained to me that shorter is more flickable and longer is more stable at speed. I’m not an amazing rider but faster than like 95% of the people I see at the trail center. I’ve always ridden short stays and never had an issue with stability at speed. Just curious what the advantage would even be for a guy like me that doesn’t have stability issues? Granted I am 5’7” and on a S3 size.

Pinkbike Poll: Is In-Frame Storage Worth It?
@Segamethod: doesn’t it strengthen the frame? Without the full section of down tube you have to thicken the layup on remaining section. The remaining section happens to be the most prone spot on a frame to rock strikes, exactly where you want a thicker carbon layup.

2016 Specialized Turbo Levo vs 2026 E-Bikes: A Decade Of E-volution
@tegnamo: you really think class 3 is a risk to class 1? People were saying riding Class 1 on non-motorized trails was going to ruin it for everyone and all they really did was increase access and force the issue.

32" Wheels Aren't Going to Save the Bike Industry
Sure seems to me like they need a 30.5” option to really hit the sweet spot. Probably not a bad idea to widen the hub a couple of mm too.
