Formula Releases MOD DH Coil Shock
@MuddyFoxCourierComp: Ex-Italian brand I'm afraid, since Fox bought them.

Video: POV Lenzerheide World Cup DH Track Preview with Stefan Garlicki
Claro Sports' YouTube channel aired the previous XC race live. So there's a chance they'll do the same with the DH ones. Fingers crossed!

Pidcock, Discovery, & Other Things We Learned from the Nove Mesto XC World Cup 2023
@HCnoodle: and I respect that sir! just not my cup of tea for sports events. British humor OTOH it's at the top of my list.

Why do almost every single English commener have to be British? Almost nobody outside the UK speaks while chewing a potato. It seems like producers (wrongly) think having a British-sounding voice brings prestige to the commentary. This spans to almost every single documental/sports/narrated feature.

[Updated with More Ways to Watch] How to Watch UCI Downhill, Enduro, & XC Mountain Bike World Cup Racing in 2023
Are we going to dismiss the blatant gentrification of the sport? I'm probably going to get enough downvotes to send me to the site hosted next to PB, but all these comments saying "Yeah, 7 bucks a month ain't gonna hurt my pocket" is certainly looking at the situation from a very first-worldly view.
There are a ton of people living in developing or straight poor countries who used to enjoy the races, but UCI's greed had condemned them to skip the races entirely or look for an available pirate option. All of this without even knowing how good the broadcast will be, or if it's even worth the money.

Ask Pinkbike: Supportive Pedals, Fork Upgrades, Dropper Choices
@L0rdTom: @L0rdTom: I think you can't generalize those statements to every single air fork out there. But in the case of the GRIP 2 damper the HSC circuit is just inexistent. It's either tuned for very light riders, or people who doesn't do 3ft+ drops. the VVC "shims" (or flaps) are too weak to act the way Fox itended them to.
If you want to start fiddling with the current crop of Fox forks, remove all of the volume spacers and then start playing with the compression settings.

First Look: 2023 Specialized Epic World Cup
That gulp thing reinds me when Specialized tried to popularize the "wu" for the auto saddle tilt in their droppers.

Frame uniqueness aside, can we talk about the Ingrid RD? Any real world reviews out there?
