Video: Peak of Summer Riding with Henry Fitzgerald & Lucas Cruz
Stop having fires in the alpine. I want to keep riding up there and they are trying to ban bikes in wilderness areas due to irresponsible behavior like this.

Review: Kavenz VHP 16 - The Traction Master
I love this bike, clean, purposeful, and simple design, made in a first world country by people who love to ride, and easy to recycle aluminum frame, especially in raw. This is how it should be done.

Pinkbike Poll: Would You Rather Buy a Frame Only or a Complete Bike?
It would not be good business for bike companies to do that. They want us to pony up and buy the most expensive models to get good suspension.

Mopar Unveils a Concept Jeep for 'Serious Mountain Bikers'
I think you are the only person in this whole thread that understands the purpose of this vehicle. They just needed some "extreme" sport to associate to this thing so it draws attention at some trade show...

Photo Story: 5 Days of Riding Classic Alpine Singletrack in the Chilcotins
Nice trip and great photos. We did a similar, but shorter 3 day loop in the fall by riding in to Lorna Lake and going out via Manson Creek/Relay Col and Paradise Creek. Lots of hike-a-bike, but the remoteness of this area makes up for it.

Now Finished: Ask Us Anything with Cane Creek
@bogey: I don't want to maintain my headset every few rides. I switched to some cheap FSA headsets and they are way better. The Cane Creek 40 is crap at any price and that is just the plain and simple truth.

Now Finished: Ask Us Anything with Cane Creek
The Cane Creek 40 series bearings are embarrassingly bad, they start to rust immediately. I have a hard time believing Cane Creek gets away with selling such a garbage headest.
