Porsche Takes Complete Ownership of Greyp

(E-) Bike leasing is actually already very popular in Germany since the same or simillar tax benefits as for company cars also apply for "company bikes", i.e. you can use your pretax income to pay your leasing rates. A lot of employers offer a cooperation with a bike leasing company as an employee benefit and you can choose whatever kind of bike you want or even a frameset.

Day 1 Randoms - Eurobike 2022

@ilovedust: I work at an office were sometimes bikes get stolen. There's a courtyard that is used as a bike parking area. If the alarm goes of I would assume that I'd be at the bike parking area quick enough. I think it makes a lot of sense if you are close by.

First Look: Transition Launch Alloy Scout and Sentinel

@atourgates: I'd rather see the Sentinel ditched now that there's also the Spire. My ideal quiver would be made of a 140mm trail bike for hometrails and long days pedalling and a big enduro rig with 170-180mm for the gnarly stuff, shuttle runs and bikepark. But I guess I'll have to look somewhere else for it.

Tracey Hannah Injures ACL after Crashing at the Crankworx Innsbruck Downhill

I tore my ACL a couple of years ago end of March, got surgery in June and was Snowboarding again towards the ends of the following season. But I have to agree, I also broke my collarbone last October and could start riding Bikes and Boards in January, so I'd also pick a broken bone over any torn ligament.

Review: 6 of the Best Tire Inserts Ridden & Rated

I've used the non-pro rimpact on my rear tire of my Enduro hardtail running about 1bar /14 psi for about half a year now and didn't have one flat tire or rim dent yet. I am ~95kg. So I am pretty happy with the setup.

Field Trip: Stoic vs Sentier vs Twostroke vs Fluid vs Growler - Value Hardtail Roundtable

@RonSauce: I assume my hardtail is 15kg/33lbs+ (never weighed it) and has a downhill rear tire on it so I'd probably feel the difference.

Field Trip: Stoic vs Sentier vs Twostroke vs Fluid vs Growler - Value Hardtail Roundtable

Since I already own a pretty rowdy hardtail, which is even better equipped for decsending then all bikes in this test I'd love to try the BMC and get a taste of how much fun a XC bike can be.

@2pi: I thought it's just the bar that shouldn't be used with other stems.
