Pinkbike Poll: What's The Least Awful Word That Means 'Not An E-Bike'?
@rojo-1: I actually fully agree. I have nothing against eBikes, but there seems to be a large disconnect with lots of people interested in one and not the other because they are definitely different. Trying to cover them the same way on the same site just seems kinda odd. When four wheelers came out they got covered in stand alone publications from dirt bikes for the same reasons. Give eBikes their own publication and dedicated staff. Pretty sure that is what most people wanted from the get-go, but we ended up getting this hybrid where you can “filter” out eBikes instead. It just leaves both groups wanting and having weird conversations about what we should call things.

Pinkbike Poll: What's The Least Awful Word That Means 'Not An E-Bike'?
@rojo-1: No, we really don’t have to embrace eBikes anymore than cyclists at the turn of the century had to embrace motorcycles (which were essentially just modified bicycles at the time much as eBikes are now). Bicycles will always remain their own thing, and eBikes will continue to morph into their own separate thing. If you want to embrace both, great, but if you don’t then that’s fine too as at the end of the day they are not the same thing.

E*thirteen Announces New Close Range & Wide Range Cassettes
I always preferred the term “naturally aspirated”.

They should have never discontinued their 10 speed 9-42 cassette. 467% range, 300g. Coupled with 10 speed Shimano it’s smooth shifting and one of my favorite setups ever.

@dennis72: On a gravel bike? My XC bikes lower legs are clean.

Inverted gravel forks actually make a lot of sense. That style of riding isn’t really going to splash and circulate oil to the top seals of a standard fork. Tortional rigidity is also less of a concern, additionally the stanchions are very short which would help anyway.
