First Ride: Propain Ekano With (You Guessed It) Avinox M2S Motor

Whoever planned all these press releases at the same time, IMO, completely missed the point. I don't know how anyone else feels about this, but I felt nothing but overwhelmed... to a point that I didn't bother reading more than two reviews. I don't even remember which brands anounced new bikes. I've been on this website for quite some time and I don't recall ever seeing something like this. I'm not an ebike hater, I've actually ridden nothing but ebikes for the past 3 years, but this made absolutelly no sense

Luca Shaw & Aletha Ostgaard Take Top Honors at High-Speed Monster Pro Downhill Series Opener

The US sure has its downsides, but prize money-wise, they put the rest of the world to shame (at least in MX, DH, and everything college sports related). Growing up, I saw local teams and racers struggle financially with little to no prize money, making it hard to progress in the sport no matter how good you were. At least from an outsider's perspective, the US manages to attract huge crowds (and thus money) no matter the sport, and that is something incredible to see.

Double Kiwi Gold to Kick Off Crankworx Christchurch AirDH

Is Crankworx going on right now? I'm usually pretty on top of MTB news, but I completely missed this. For a series like this, maybe it's worth investing a bit more in marketing? I don't even recall seeing anything about it on PB

Review: Cane Creek's Free Shock Tuner App

@bmied31: At least on this side of the pond its pretty easy to find second hand ones. If the fork/shock you're running is compatible, go for it!

Review: Cane Creek's Free Shock Tuner App

@Caliwcm: Mostly the relation between air pressure and rebound. Also, how to adapt different compression settings for different trails. I wouldn't say it gave me the best setup in the world, but after I managed to figure out how to it works, I started helping my friends doing the same and everyone ended up with a much better base line setup.

Review: Cane Creek's Free Shock Tuner App

I know it’s not the same, but I bought a used Shockwiz a few months ago and couldn’t be happier. Even with the outdated app (and pretty much no support apart from a few online forums), I’ve unlocked performance gains I never managed in 20+ years of riding. For how cheap these are nowadays, if your fork/shock is compatible, it’s a no-brainer!

BYB Tech Releases Telemetry V3 Data Acquisition System

Bought a used Shockwiz a few months ago and, even as simpler system, I've been blown away with the results I got. I was always critic about the setup I had both on my shock and fork and always tried to have a logical approach towards the feeling I was aiming to achieve. On the first ride with the Shockwiz on my ZEB the suggested setup was miles away from what I thought I was aiming, but I went with it (more air, remove all tokens, slower rebound, lower HSC and LSC) - the fork never worked as good as it is working now. That said, I can only imagine the kind of setup you're able to achieve by using something BYB. It's a shame the price is so out of touch for the average Joe though

Explained: How Much Money Do Pro Mountain Bikers Make for Winning World Cup Races in 2025?

The UCI (MTB only, couldn't care less about the roadies) really needs a shake, similar to the one MXGP is getting now from the US Moto Competitions. The whole Jorge Prado situation really shed a light on how bad the MX scene is, when handled by a pour organization. It's happening exactly the same with the gravity mtb scene. Redbull will keep growing and maybe the time will come when riders can consider other series, instead of the WC circuit. Seeing riders go is the only eye oppener this people can possible have to push things forward. 3750€ per race win is insulting.

First Ride: 2025 Rocky Mountain Instinct Powerplay SL

@Brett198: When most of the comments on ebike articles are butthurt users against them, it's pretty hard to say you're not crying for attention. You literally oppened an article you're not interested in, clicked the message box and gave up time from your day to say you don't like the thing. Dude, just ignore the article and move along.
