Pinkbike Poll: Riser Bar or Extra Spacers Under the Stem?
@RadBartTaylor: to counter your point, look at where your hips are compared to your wife. That’s where and why the stack height difference is important. You can’t be as “active” on a bike with a shorter stack as a tall guy because of this.

Pinkbike Poll: Riser Bar or Extra Spacers Under the Stem?
On my (outdated geo) 2016 XL 5010 I have as many spacers as the factory cut fork allows and a 70mm rise bar. I am 6’ but have a long torso and arms

Guerrilla Gravity Appears to Have Closed Up Shop
@Mtbdialed: gotcha, I’ve never encountered this as I live in an area that’s primarily road bike sales and very few shops have legit mtb offerings/services. But I did encounter this when I was selling boats - a grom’s dad asked for a free boat because his son was doing well on the national circuit ($150k+ boat).

Guerrilla Gravity Appears to Have Closed Up Shop
@Mtbdialed: the concept of “bro deals” is dumb. Most luxury goods can be negotiated down from MSRP/the floor price, or services can be negotiated as part the purchase (free services/tune ups). If I walk into a jewelry store I can negotiate the price & services of jewelry/watches, but for some reason we shouldn’t expect the same with mountain bikes? I know the margins aren’t as large, but when local shops or brands don’t incentivize purchases the average customer will look elsewhere.

Tough to buy a bike that you couldn’t easily demo. Also, lack of waterbottle holder is a deal breaker for a lot of people.

Crankbrothers Releases New Stamp 1 Composite Flat Pedal
The size of the width of the pedal doesn’t mean much unless we have a Q-factor for comparison. Plenty of large pedals that are small once you’re on the bike.

Review: DVO Topaz X - Shock Week 2023
I love my topaz t3 but the amount of money it costs to rebuild the constantly failing bladder makes it a terrible shock. Two rebuilds + my annual can service kits and I could have purchased a new shock.
