The Marginal Gain Orient: A 2x Drivetrain that Shifts Itself
@cyclopathic-uk: let’s not forget that 1x was invented because one company, Sachs, had decades of trouble getting their front mech to work properly and catch up to the Japanese market leader as well as the Italians.
Then some Americans with a shifter that didn’t work either, grip shift, bought it and started wondering, what can we do to make our company not look so bad?
First step was to give it a new name, sram, second step was to take the parts that they could not figure out how to make them work and tell you, not using them is innovative!
They also figured out that it’s a good business model to sell consumers half the drive train for double the money, they would triple their margin and revenue for their investors…
a true American success story!

Review: Commencal Meta Power SX Avinox
I really don’t care about motorized bicycles but that’s all I get to see these days even though a while back on pink bike gave me an option to choose what I wanted to see.
I don’t think e-bikes ruin anything or something like that. It’s just a different sport that I have no interest in…

4 Things We Learned from the Loudenvielle DH World Cup
@suspended-flesh: It was live on the “Eurosport” channel free to watch at that time! If you lived in Europe.
It was the time of big corporate sponsors like Siemens, Volvo, ratiopharm or Volkswagen, they wanted us to see their logos on the jerseys…
