Eurobike 2023: Exciting Products from European Manufacturers - Part 3
You know........... Out of the 5 bikes shown only two of them had non-dropper posts. The one E-bike pictured has a dropper. Your sarcasm is irrelevant.

GT Becomes a "Stand-alone Business" as it Returns to Southern California
@TheFunkyMonkey: That red Karakoram was my first bike as well. Wore out every component on that thing. I too aspired for a Xizang. However I won a raffle at a local race and picked up A Psyclone. Flexy AF seat stays but what a frame for the time. I still miss it with my new mag 21's.

Transition Releases Relay Lightweight eMTB
So what do you mean by stay strong. I've been mountain biking since 1986. I'm now 52. In 2016 I lost the ability to ride a mountin bike due to a chronic health issue. The only way for me to get back on the trails would be an e-bike. I know your comment is full of sarcasm. However I look perfectly healthy. No one knows I cannot pedal an MTB anymore. I'm still trying to get over my psychological block of how much I will worry about being judge by people like you. How do I know that. I used to be like you and looked down on the healthy people riding there e-bikes to the top of the climb that I was powering up under my own in power. Keep on bashing until you get old & injured. Then welcome to my nightmare.

Pinkbike Poll: What Was the Greatest Advancement In Mountain Bike Technology?
For me it had to be dropper posts. No bike ever fit me correctly before droppers. I have the torso of an XL frame but the inseam if a 2xl. I am 6'2 and my riding buddy is 6'5. When he would borrow my bikes he would have to lower my seatposts. I was never able to jump or comfortably take drops until the droppers arrived.

Video: Fleur TK on Riding a Pink Bike, Racing Sailboats Professionally, & Discovering the MTB Community
It may be just me, but seeing external housing on a bike is just damn sexy to me. Or is it the fact that I'm an MTB'r from the 80's and I just don't like change.

The 4 Best 2020 eMTB Motor Systems Reviewed - Bosch vs Brose vs Shimano vs Fazua Ridden & Rated
To all the Dipshit's that are ragging on this category. How many of you drive to the trailhead instead of using the Mountain bike as a bicycle and cycling there? Here is my issue & my heartbreak. I have been mountain biking since 1986. I just turned 50. I have a blood condition that has made any sort of exercising put my heart at risk. I get terribly short of breath doing mild exertions. Before this happened I still biked to the trailhead on weekends (50 minutes) My rides were 20 miles on the trail. My whole life I have been a cyclist. Now I can't ride anymore. I am considering this category of bicycle more & more. My main problem is the prejudice against it in my own mind. I have them against young kids and anyone under say 45 out on the trail. But now here I am. Unable to ride my bikes. When I consider buying an e-mtb I think I am over my own prejudice but I still feel so much shame over what I think other mountain bikers will think of me. I don't look 50. I don't act 50. Regardless of that shame I am going to have to go this route if my life outside of my job is to have meaning. I can't rock climb anymore either due to the medical problem or go on strenuous hikes. Anything cardiovascular is difficult for me. Pinkbike. Thank you for this wealth of knowledge. I truly appreciate it.

This is the first of there video's I have actually been able to watch in it's entirety without my ADD making me click back to the homepage. Maybe it was not having to stare at Calvin's mustache.
