@wburnes: All bikes are fun. But adding more and more technology just makes them more expensive, it doesn't make them any more fun.
The sport is being killed by technology, it just makes it for the rich white folk. It becomes less accessible to outsiders.

Keep it for the pros, the average duffer doesn't need it. If they think the do all that happens is that bikes will get more expensive for all of us!!! And we'll have no more fun...

Canyon’s Lux Era Concept Explores 32" Wheels and Aerodynamics for Marathon XC
The graphics are getting like cosmetic adverts. We're all just becoming dumb consumers, not questioning anything, just lapping up the shiny marketing goodness.
"Contains natural micro nano capsulettes of Ceroglant for 90% more efficient aero flow contours"...

The Most Intriguing Tech From Taipei Cycle Shows Past - And What To Expect in 2026
29" bike can easily be built for tall riders, but agreed bike designers tend not to as the sales are small. 32" cannot be built for short riders, but it isn't necessarily any better for taller riders!
I'm gonna do a feature on this soon.

32" Wheels Will Make Cape Epic Race Debut This Weekend
If the UCI ban it, then it would be better for everyone.
I don't se why racers aren't fighting back, it's only a short term gain (if any at all) until everyone has it. The team with the most money will profit in the short term, it'll make it less accessible to privateers...
Formula 1 is super technological, but within very strict rules, lets do the same...

Several Major Bicycle Brands Are Suing Customs and Border Protection After US Supreme Court Ruling Against Tariffs
To save me having to read all the comments and not have to deal with the anger of some, I asked ChatGpt to give me a summary. Perhaps Pinkbike can make this a standard feature!
