I don't see a reason for not inviting him. He's clearly a fan favorite at every world cup, still has the world cup pace and a big bag of tricks and does some freeride events. It's like that kid is made for rampage. Same for Goldstone

@Mtbdialed: I'm gonna be that guy now and say, Bernard would have been able to ride it out if the wheel didn't fail. If you look at the video frame by frame you can see the wheel exploding before the fork even bottoms out. I'd say the impact of Fabio Wibmers Lyon 25 and Brages Jah Drop was even higher. In both cases a lot of stuff broke, but the wheels kept spinning

I think 12 speed eagle drivetrains should get more shit for breaking and bending all the time. They are so close to the ground, yet so fragile, it is inacceptable. Especially the issues with the irreplaceable clutch that gets weak. And I would love to see more durable parts. I don't need the most precise shifting performance out of the box if I ride with a slightly bend derailleur most of the time. Honestly pinkbike should do a field test with a fleet of bikes that has been trashed a season in whistler bike park, just to see which components still work the best if they are not brand new anymore

@Caddz: yes i totally meant to write is like that. It's the job description of a female locksmith

Call me shelock homes, but if you go on their website and look at the rim dimensions of the "redesigned rims for the FR1500" the embedded image is called DRW_FR541_WEB_SHO_001.png

@spaceofades: You don't even need to buy actual safety glasses. There are tons of 20$ cycling glasses on amazon that come with multiple lenses, including a clear one. I have a pair of these and it's exactly like the branded ones from some friends. I could not tell any difference in lens quality as they were both what you'd think: A clear piece of plastic to protect the eyes and nothing else

expensive cycling glasses with clear lenses are the biggest waste of money apart from straight up burning it

Don't let those stem clips fool you that they were designed for stem or even handlebar routed cables and only that

@sendrick-lamar: talking about a potential Shimano direct mount derailleur. It would have be designed around the connection to the frame for the UDH. And I have doubts that there are no parents from SRAM around this.

Smart move from SRAM to get all the frames to use UDH and now they all fit their direct mount derailleur but not a potential Shimano one
