From The Top: Atherton Bikes on Additive Manufacturing, Carbon Masts, & Buckets of Titanium Dust
To be fair, this is just the podcast transcribed because it was such a good conversation. And they are doing some interesting stuff!

They're working on a 130mm-travel 29er that sounds like a lot of fun.

The Pinkbike Podcast: Episode 121 - How To Film Rampage & Field Tests with the PB Team
I've always liked the half shell and goggles look! I've been rocking that for a long, long time haha

The Pinkbike Podcast: Episode 121 - How To Film Rampage & Field Tests with the PB Team
Nah, I think those will usually be reserved for Field Tests. They require two filmers, drone work, a bunch of editing, etc whereas we only need photography for a standard, weekly normal bike review that comes out on most Mondays - wouldn't be realistic to do that every week. But yeah, I really like the Top Gear-ish vibe and they can be entertaining.
We've discussed doing an efficiency test for every bike review, but not film it and only test that one bike and have those numbers in the review. The same goes for having one descent to film every bike on. But conditions vary so much and PB editors are spread out, so it wouldn't ever be consistent.

Zero pressures, we just post what we think is interesting or relevant :) Sometimes it might be a semi-related wonky commuter bike haha but hopefully not too often.

Editors' Choice: Our Favorite Parts From the Value Bike Field Test
@b-roc: Glad yours worked better, but our Alhonga brakes were terrible. Bike snob? Guess you missed the video where we gushed about lots of value parts that we like, including a set of inexpensive Shimano brakes that impressed us all :) Our Alhonga brakes were terrible next to Code Rs… of course. But they were also terrible compared to some of the cheapest hydraulic disc brakes out there.
We review what we’re given, and these sucked. I’ve talked a lot about how inconsistent MTB brakes are these days, and it often seems like a bit of crap shoot as to what will work well. This doesn’t only apply to value minded bikes stuck with brakes that suck due to Roni supply issues, but also high-end bikes with high-end brakes.
