BMC Launches New Twostroke 01 XC Hardtail
@Austink: I have the previous version (also 27.2mm). I run the OneUp 120mm dropper which is plenty for it!

Video: Rhys Verner Shreds the All-New (Non-High-Pivot) Forbidden Reya
The YT Izzo would be an option, such a fantastic little bike for the price. This new Forbidden looks exactly like it as well.

VisionVelo's Carbon Fiber Mudguard Costs More Than a Premium Tire
I have the plastic ones on my Lyrik, absolute best mudguard you can get. Just solid, great protection, and no noise whatsoever!

Review: Fox's New Speedframe RS is Virginia Tech's Top Rated Helmet
Don’t bother with this helmet. The visor attachment design is completely flawed, the screw is made of the cheapest metal you can find (or maybe it’s cheese), so once you try to tighten it, it just gets stripped and doesn’t tight anymore, rendering the visor completely loose and super noisy. Also the GoPro attachment they boast about just doesn’t work (search on YouTube/reddit, lots of people complaining about it).
When contacting Fox about it, they want you to return the helmet so they can give you a new one. The return takes 15-30 days, so you will not be able to ride a bike if you do not have a spare helmet.
For a helmet this expensive, that is a major design flaw.

Daysaver Launches an "All-Inclusive" Tool Kit for Your Pocket or Bike Mount
I have both OneUp and the Daysaver kit. Daysaver bit broke in half when trying to loose a brake mount (torqued to 2.5nm), really disappointed by their quality, I’d choose OneUp everyday!

YT Industries Releases Izzo Core Range
I had the Izzo v1 for 4 years or so, when all the models were full carbon (even rear triangle). I ended up bumping the fork to 140mm and I absolutely loved that bike, so light, good geometry too. It gets a bit nervous on rough stuff but that’s expected I guess!
