Review: Yeti Goes Long With the Ultra-Adjustable LT
Yeti's suspension evolution: Rail (303s), eccentric pivot (switch tech), miniature Fox rail (switch infinity), now a six-bar linkage with 7 pairs of bearings. Yeti seems to lack a consistent suspension configuration across generations. It feels unnecessarily complex, more marketing than meaningful engineering.

First Ride: Shimano Saint Flat Pedals
Checked the Shimano website, the new Saint pedal is listed as PD-G8040, which suggests the upcoming Saint group will likely be the G8000 series, G for gravity? Pinkbike didn’t mention the model number at all, which feels a bit intentional. They’re already testing and drafting a review of the new Saint group, probably.
