Nino Schurter & Malene Degn's Wireless Electronic Drivetrains - Albstadt World Cup XC
Hacking into bluetooth would not be a sabotage as Sram's etap is not using bluetooth. Instead, it's a proprietary system, closer to ANT+ instead of Bluetooth.

7 XC Bike Checks from Albstadt World Cup
Agree. To make it easier for the editor:
- There are no SRAM Guide Level brakes
- Once again you call the grips foam grips whereas they are actually silicone
- Someone already pointed out that Florian's bike has SRM power meter, not Quarq.

DVO 2017 Preview - Crankworx Whistler 2016
@jimmiedurango: Sure, no problem. Not all lands are created equal. From where I come, we don't have mountains. Some say we even don't have hills. The trails here are tame compared to what most of PB audience is used to. Nearly no rocks, maybe some arm-sized roots here and there but nothing that would really flex the 32mm fork legs. The longest descent you can find here is about 1-2 minutes. But we do have plenty of snow and mud where wide tires are handy. We also have short, punchy and steep climbs where grip is needed. Was that enough and are we now allowed to run "skinny" stanchions with wide tires? Also, remember - 3.4" is maximum. You don't really have to go to the max all the time everywhere. 2.5" + extra mud clearance is nice too.

Maxime Marotte's BH Ultimate 29 - XCO World Cup Round 3, La Bresse
They are not foam grips. It's silicone. ESI. Best grips out there.

Cannondale's New Scalpel-Si - First Ride
There are exceptions to this rule. My 160cm GF rides a 29" hardtail and couldn't be happier. Well, actually she could by riding this new Cannondale...
What I want to say is that wheel size doesn't matter - geometry does. If geo numbers are correct then small people can have huge wheels (and eat the cake too).
