Nukeproof Acquired By Belgian Cycling Factory
BIG fan of their stuff and enjoy it all... but I hope there was some recourse in all of this for current Warranty holders. While technically considered "Unsecured debt" telling all of your currently loyal fanbase to shove it will burn a LOT of bridges.

Opinion: "Super-Light" E-Bikes Have Gone Too Far
Definitely agree with them making major major compromises that are more of a disservice than anything. The shocks and forks are often the anemic junk found in low end bikes, the brackets and rotors are sad as well. The weight savings are really quite artificial in that regard. You aren't getting a lighter bike you're getting a bike that's less capable.

First Look: The $865 Push SV8 Coil Shock
Cool stuff, but I still want for high speed rebound adjustments. I find it's the most critical bit of adjustment I need on my bike for soaking up big drops or hrash landings or accidental sends to flat.

Selling as the leverage ratio between travel and shock length (150mm travel, 55mm shock stroke) meant I had to run a lot of air pressure in at my heavy weight to get it to handle, and I couldn't reasonably swap this over to coil for my weight either.
Comes with charger. Will come with pedals but may not be the pedals pictured.
Priced to sell. Don't lowball me as I'll setup a meet with you somewhere obscure and not show up wasting your time for being a douche.

Mar 29, 2022Fox Float X2 - 185x55 Trunnion Mount
$400 USDI bought a used Fox X2 shock to try and mount to my Norco Sight VLT 29er, but of course it just barely didn't have the clearance to work with their strange 90 degree shock mounting BS... so that went out the window.
Sticker is coming up a bit and there is one absolutely tiny smaller than a grain of sand nick on the kashima coating. Price of $40 is more than generous enough for how little it's worn.
Fox specs:
