DT Swiss Releases Value Oriented F1900 Classic DH & Freeride Wheelset

If used for DH and FR then I´d prefer the 18T, gives you less Pedal Kickback and most people don´t care about tech uphills and quick engagement on DH and FR bikes.

First Ride: Canyon Neuron:ONfly - a Lighter 140mm eMTB

The tester did 95% in turbo when testing the range. To me, thats not neccesarily the customer for a light emtb. Most people I know shopping for a light emtb want just a tiny bit of support because they are in good shape, just want some of the edge cut off on the climbs. Or they want to tow a child which is pedaling as well. We did the test with 1000m of evelation gain using a trek fuel exe with TQ motor and the battery was at 50% when we reached the top..... ridden 90% in low support mode was totaly fine for the riders in our group.

First Ride: Focus Vam² SL - Electric Downcountry?

@zmcfadden28: Correct, and the G2s are not strong enought for most people and terrain. Why would any Company spec them at their top price point bike when it can be expected that the first thing the tester and customer are goig to compalin about is the brakes. Saving a bit of weight over a set of codes can´t be as importand as getting a review that says "well rounded component spec" rather than "the first thing you gotta do is to get better brakes"

Video: Tech Tuesday - How To Bleed Shimano Brakes

Thats why I always start sucking the fluid out through the caliper before pushing fresh fluid through. Gravity bleed works but its messy in my opinion.

Is This the New Enduro? Specialized Patent Shows 170mm Bike With UBB Suspension Design

@WRCDH: As a German from this area of the Alps I can say that Ancillotti isn´t well known around here. You basically never get to see one in the wild. I doubt that any of my customers in the Bike shop would know the brand name and our focus is gravity Bikes.

Bike Check: Abby Hogie's Contra Bikes BR200

Man that´s ugly! I´m glad there is something for every kind of taste out there. I respect the engineering efforts but wouldn´t want to ride that thing, not even if it was free.
