Fazua's New Ride 60 Motor System Has More Power & Range
@mikekazimer: I wouldn't want it to feel different to a normal MTB. When the time comes, I just want enough power to keep up with my mates on the climbs.

Fazua's New Ride 60 Motor System Has More Power & Range
Another step in the wrong direction. e-bikes need less power, less weight, not more. It really shouldn't be too difficult to make a usable 16kg 140 travel trail e-mtb with current technology.

Our 25 Favourite Comments of 2021 - Comment Gold
My favourite comment was in this article about Tom Pidcock:
https://www.pinkbike.com/news/ineos-grenadiers-starts-a-mountain-bike-team-with-tom-pidcock.html
"Any word on what his brother, Stu, is up to?"
But was probably a bit too subtle to get noticed.

Orbea Announces Price Increases Due to Supply Chain Issues
Not really, the Rallon frameset is now £4100 in UK. You can get an Atherton frame for less than that.

Video: Why Are We Using 12-Speed Drivetrains? - The Explainer
Well XTR was released with a 11 speed, 10-45, sub 300g cassette. But for some stupid reason decided to discontinue it. A cheaper XT version would be perfect

First Look: SRAM's New GX Drivetrain Offers 520% Range
How pathetic & predictable. I want less range, less gears, less weight, NOT more.
And you can't run a larger chainring because 36t is the limit on most frames & it's hard enough to find one that big.

Mondraker Dune - Review
I had my Foxy over 4 years with the same cable routing under BB & it was never a problem.
Thinking about it:
1) For any rocks, sticks, etc to damage the cables, they would have to enter from the side, but the cranks, pedals & my legs & feet are in the way.
2) As the shock compresses the cables become flush with frame, making 1 even more unlikely.
