Review: Forge+Bond Shift EM - A US-Made Carbon Wheelset for $1250
Lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects only makes this a non-starter. Can’t compete with the many other brands doing lifetime crash/-break while you ride - warranties.

Spotted: Under the Cover of Specialized's Prototype Downhill Bike
So is the lugged/carbon frame just for easier prototyping or is that what the production model be as well? I assumed it was just being used to prototype.

Revenue Round Up: Some Success Amidst Falling Sales

2 cross for 29er at 1800 grams is dumb.

Development Story: SRAM's New Eagle Transmission
Does this require a proprietary hub, axle or frame?
Or, will it work on any existing modern bike?
I may have missed it in the article.
