Ask Pinkbike: More Travel, Locking Out, and Switching to Clipless
Well said.
- I love to clip into my short travel bike, huck jumps and ride down steep tech stuff. Never crash because I'm clipped in, only because I made a mistake.

Pinkbike Poll: Upsizing Your Frame?
Heckler is 2010. 23.5 inch TT vs 23 for the Solo so not much in it at all. But the Solo has a much lower head tube height vs the Heckler so the riding positions are quite different. All in all I can ride most medium and large frames. I find it pretty funny when people get all wound up about slightly different bike sizings and say things like "i feel like hunch back on the medium frame but the large felt good"

Pinkbike Poll: Upsizing Your Frame?
I downsized my recent frame size.
Went from a large Heckler to a medium Solo, same size stem of both bikes 50mm.
I like to huck all the way down and ride back to the top.
Funny thing is that both bikes are still fun to ride and both are very comfortable.
I probably sound like I'm insane to all you...

My local! Awesome trail.
Pea gravel is a hell of a drug...
