Why I’m Not Panicking About 1,500W E-Bikes (Yet)
I think we as a species have proven that not being a jerk is particularly hard for A LOT of people. Whatever it is, e-bikes, violent video games, social media, [INSERT TOPICAL DEBATE HERE] they're not the real problem. We, the fleshy things, are the problem.

Intercepted Email Confirms Industry Plans for New 30.5" Wheel Size
Not even a joke, give it 2-3 years and the merry-go-round will continue - ISO for 750d is 660mm, vs 686 for 32 and 622 for 29... if only there was an old French size that was closer to the middle ground of 650mm... Say 700 or 700A at 647 and 642mm respectively... it will happen, we've been here before with 650b...

UK Lawmakers & the UK MTB Trail Alliance Call for Legislation to Increase Mountain Bikers’ Access Rights
My worry will always be the minority that ruin it for the rest of us. Access rights are great, but they are a privilege as well. And unless people can behave themselves, then those privileges can and will be withdrawn.
We have a scourge of unrestricted e-motos in the UK and its frightening how many people de-restrict their regular e-MTBs. It's simple, don't be a dick. Be respectful of other users, don't ride like a wally. Sadly I don't think a lot of people in the UK have the capacity to be decent human beings anymore 😔

First Ride: YT Decoy Core 4 2025 – Different Motor, Same DNA
Let me get this straight... the EU arm of YT is in administration, yet they continued with the release of this new bike, but by the sounds of it, they don't actually have any, but some will be "coming soon"...
Which leaves people in the EU with outstanding orders out of pocket while supposedly unaffected people in the US are unable to actually give them money as they don't believe in pre-orders...
Can someone explain what the point of this launch even is? Why not just go to The Winchester and wait for it to all blow over until the EU situation is resolved and you have bikes in stock in to actually give to people?

Review: Chromag's New Pilot Clipless Pedals
They are expensive, yes, but why not choose them if you want them? I have a set of XT's, they're awesome, they're good value, but I never look at them and think "phwooooaaaaarrrrrr!"
Maybe it's just me, but if the the function is 95% there of the benchmark (which it sounds like it is from Kaz's review), why not splurge a bit for something you want, even if that is only because they look cool and from a brand you like to support? I'd rather give my cash to someone like Chromag over the biggest brands out there.

Review: Chromag's New Pilot Clipless Pedals
Who cares if they're objectively not as good as Shimano? Not everyone cares about having the "best", which is fine too. Chromag is a great example with a few of their products. They not be the "best" or lightest, but they look great and will be solid.
I have a Ranger stem and Cutlass bar on my Spur and sure I could get something way lighter and "better" (sure OneUp's carbon bar would be lighter and more compliant) but I like Chromag's aesthetic and they're solidly built and I know I can rely on them :)

Review: Silt's $1,000 Carbon XC Wheels
3 years is to cover defects, but the crash replacement is free for life of the wheels. Sounds like they'll sort you out for a long time!
