First Ride: 2024 Specialized Epic EVO 8

Not quite. The Rocky has a steeper STA, slacker HTA, and a bit more reach. Maybe gen 9 will finally catch up. The Specialized looks like a nice bike, but definitely not groundbreaking in any way.

First Look: Tektro's New Entry-Level Gemini Drivetrain - Taipei Cycle Show 2024

@davechopoptions: Not quite true. The AdventX cassettes use standard 10 speed spacing and work great with a Shimano SL-4100 and RD-5120.

Dario's Day 1 Randoms - Taipei Cycle Show 2024

https://igus.bike/en/the-bike/ 1,200 €, 17kg, and you can mix and match between 8 different colors for the frame, fork, and wheels. I have zero use for it, but for some reason I want one. Maybe it's the single sided rear end, or maybe it is because it looks like a balance bike for adults.

@vinay: The Schrader valve stem is nearly impossible to clog. The little Schrader valve cores are not. At only $0.12 a piece, I just swap the cores at the first sign of trouble. Usually only once a year.

@hydraulica: A Schrader valve is 7.7mm nominal, but is usually a hair under at around 7.4mm. Depending on your valve stem, 19/64" might be enough. If not, 5/16 will definitely work.

@neimbc: Thread together options on PF92 are only for 24mm spindles. DUB and 30mm spindles still need standard press fit.

@fartymarty: Nothing wrong with drilling carbon rims. You just need to use new/sharp drill bits and a steady hand.
