EVOC’s New Mountain Bike Bag Pro Is Lighter and More Travel-Friendly
This reads like a guy that has never flown with his bike, nor taken a multi day trip to go biking somewhere that requires airline travel.
My main worry about this bag is whether the pressure from the top corner where the handlebar sticks up would get pushed on from stuff applying force at the corner. That being said, the oversized stuff usually ends up last in my experience I can often watch my bike get loaded from the window of my seat.

The Pinkbike Podcast: Does Geometry Adjustment Mean Brands Can Get By Making Bad Bikes?
@DizzyNinja: just curious, how tall are you/frame size do you ride? Because for me, a combination of slackening head angles + longer frame/chainstays when descending have been a gamechanger for helping my large xl body be better centered in the bike. Same goes for climbing. The steepening of the seat angle has been another total game changer for being in a comfortable position that doesn't want the front end to lift up since my seat post has to be so high which changes my effective seat angle relative to what they post on geo charts. example, my transition spire xl lists an effective seat post angle of 77 degrees, but measured at 780mm. My seat height measures at 815mm, so its a lot slacker than what they intended it for. Why can't you have your cake and eat it too?

Review: All-Season Clothing From Ornot
@everythingsucks: it said he is wearing a size large, and they make x-large. I'm in this size range with gorilla length arms, though not as slim. The most important factor for me is that the arm length is actually appropriate since most brands just have a bigger chest and neck but sleeves are always short. Anyways, helpful review Dario!

Video: The Commencal Meta Power Now Available With Bosch Motor
@tsn73: I figured that would be the case on the ebike I use as a winter bike and commuter, with a Shimano ep6 motor and ~450wh battery. But i'm 3 full years in and 5000km and it's definitely still 85-90% of the original capacity. Maybe they're not all like this, but i've been very impressed with the shimano battery.
