BikeStow Launches the Storm: A $749 Freestanding Bike Rack for Truck Beds
What is the advantage of this over a tailgate pad? Less secure? Less room in your bed available for other cargo? And whatever else you put in your bed is not less secure? And it's take longer to load and unload than a tailgate bad.
What am I missing here.

The 2026 Specialized Levo R is in a Category of its Own
This is the perfect bike if you want to ride high elevation blue trails...but you live at sea level and don't have a hematocrit count of 50%. It would be perfect if you are riding some of the incredible blue trails in Truckee/Mt Hough but live in the Bay Area.

Frameworks Announces 2026 Enduro & DH Bikes
What is this a bike for ants? 505mm longest reach??? I guess that works for people under 6'3?

Can you imagine how brutal the internet would be on a man like MVPD or Nino if they did something like this? Wild.

Review: Orbea's 2026 Rallon Enduro Proves Long-Travel Enduro Bikes Aren't Dead
@brianpark: Definitely makes sense. Most people buying 170mm+ bikes probably want them electric. Definitely the case in the Bay Area with all the insane steep climbs.

Video: Top 3 Run from Red Bull Rampage 2025 (Spoilers)
The runs are amazing. But I think literally every inch where there tires were on the ground it was smooth groomed trail. I don't think any of the top 3 (maybe the whole event?) touched a single rock on their way too. Cool, but it seems like the spirit of the event is lost. It really now is just a Slopestyle competition but with bigger chutes, exposure and risk.

[UPDATE] Adolf Silva Sustains Serious Spinal Injury Following Double Flip Crash at Rampage
Jesus. Totally insane. Hope he lives. Death from neurogenic fever from the TBI is probably still a huge risk. Next few days will be critical. 😣
