Pinkbike Poll: Do You Use Your Climb Switch?
So, after this poll, I thought I'd revisit the climb switch I never use on today's ride. It made the "I wish I had a lower bottom gear" fire road marginally less unpleasant, but I left it locked 50% of the descents. Does anyone make a blanking plug for a Super Deluxe?...

Henry's Waffle House: All-Mountain Bikes Are Back, and They're More Pointless Than Ever
@salespunk: I have a YT Izzo Blaze and a Nukeproof Mega, and I probably love riding the Izzo more, but I love where I can ride the Mega more. The Izzo starts to feel outgunned at just the points where the Mega properly wakes up. I certainly wouldn't need anything in-between, and if I replace anything, I'd get something a little burlier than the Mega, but wouldn't change the Izzo at all

@Rickadams243: depends if the test ride is in busy traffic! Or if it's on a Tuesday morning...

Bike Check: Dangerholm's Scott Genius ST Concept
I love Dangerholm builds as much a the next geek, so please keep publishing this stuff. But... This one reads a bit much like an advertorial. I totally understand sponsorship is how this sort of thing gets built, but just a slightly more subtle phrasing would have been nicer

Bike Check: Dangerholm's Scott Genius ST Concept
@L0rdTom: my personal gripe with headset routing is that I can't see what's going on inside - I've no idea if something is rubbing on the steerer and suddenly I'll have no brakes. My road bike with (normal) internal routing is an utter PITA - the shifter cables run in these horrid skinny drinking straw things and go round this weird bend under the BB, so changing those is often a 2 beer job

Clever Standard's Clever Tools - Taipei Cycle Show 2024
Works well for mountain bikes. As long as the hole isn't huuuge you'll be fine to at least get home. Bit sketchy for road tubeless to be honest. IME you'll get home riding carefully and with lowish pressure, but lightweight road tyres have such a flimsy carcass they don't really hold the anchovy in place. I personally always do a permanent fix with a tyre mushroom when I get home. Others are more hung ho

Video: Chain Reaction Cycles Bids Farewell in 'The Final Send'
You just triggered me about my Mega! I've got a spare, but might buy another just in case...

Win It Wednesday: Enter to Win A SR Suntour Durolux 38 Suspension Fork
I'm sure it's a perfectly good fork, but they need to hire a new graphic designer - somehow it just looks cheap, especially in that black on the website. It's sort of hiding the brand, a bit apologetic or something. They're not going to break through in a tough market until customers feel good about standing next to their bike at the trail head

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly: What Fenders Pinkbike's Editors Actually Use
Don't know about rear, but the front one is excellent. And I've ridden pretty horrible conditions through the British winter! Seems a different material to the mudhuggers, which feel sort of waxy - maybe it's just got a higher glass fibre content or something. Also, the shape is a bit more "Moto" than the organic mudhugger, if that bothers...

Winning Bike Check: Ronan Dunne's Mondraker Summum - Red Bull Hardline Tasmania
Looks scarily close to the chain ring to me - give that to the public to install and you'd guarantee people would find a way to make them meet then sue Mondraker for coming up short as they couldn't pedal
