Tech Briefing: Serviceable Saddles, Modular Frame Protection, Wheels for Cardboard Boxes, & More
The Trailborne wheel kit is actually a cool idea, and actually sanely priced, sucks their whole article is super obviously completely AI generated. Their website looks legit and the creator seems genuinely passionate about the product, but come on man, I counted 14 em dashes in that article. It's insulting

Trailborne Gear Announces the Roll Pack System to Make Travelling with a Cardboard Bike Box Easier
This is a product I genuinely wondered if existed when traveling with my bike recently, though with how small the pictures are I do have to wonder if the text isn't the only thing AI generated. If you can't be bothered to write a real product description yourself, why on earth would anyone trust you to deliver a physical product? This is absolute bottom of the barrel, insultingly obviously ChatGPT shat out writing, "It's not X — it's Y". Come on dude

Rockshox Lyrik Ultimate w/ Push HC97 damper upgrade
$375 USDBought for a project that never materialized, fork has been fully rebuilt with zero riding hours since. Charger 2.1 damper has been upgraded with a Push HC97 compression assembly, airspring has an Everflow Tank upgrade installed. While there are certainly a number of scuffs and scrapes, the stanchions are spotless. The steerer tube measures 7.25" and is threaded for a oneup EDC topcap, the pictured purple one is included though you could certainly install a normal starnut as well.
