First Ride: Santa Cruz Updates the Blur - More Travel, More Weight, More Fun?
Looking forward to an new XC field test. Blur, Epic 9, Orbea Oiz, Pivot Mach 4SL... I'm sure there are others that I'm forgetting that have come out recently.

Ibis Exie For All, size small, Shimano XT / SLX build
$2950 USDSelling my son's 2024 Ibis Exie For All, size small. It was his NICA bike that he used for the past two seasons but unfortunately he's now outgrown it. It has been professionally maintained and is in excellent working order. Shimano XT brakes have a fresh bleed on them and new pads, brand new Shimano SLX 12sp shifter cassette and chain, new shift cable and housing, new stem and saddle. Shimano XT rear derailleur, Oneup 120mm dropper post, Shimano XT M8120 wheels and Maxxis tires. Fox Stepcast 34 Performance fork w/Grip damper and Fox Float Performance Elite rear shock. 27 lbs but can get significantly lighter with careful parts selection.

Bike Check: Simon Andreassen's Customized Orbea Oiz
I wish Shimano would make the XTR Di2 shifter with a trigger shift option, just like the mechanical shifters.

Leaked 2027 UCI World Cup Schedule Suggests 10 DH Races and 12 XC Races
I feel bad for the racers and teams. That many races is going to cost teams and sponsors a serious amount of money and equipment. Smaller teams will probably have to cut racers in order to afford to do a full season of racing. Not to mention the physical stress of trying to stay healthy, on form, and unbroken for that amount of time.

Spotted: The New Scott Spark Does Not Have 32" Wheels - 2026 South Korea XC World Cup
Without a true upper link, this brings it closer to a high pivot arrangement minus the idler pulley. I know Scott owns Bold, but I think this layout looks closer to my Deviate Highlander 2 which is also concentric to the BB and driving the shock horizontally.
