Hayes' New Dominion T4 Brakes Use Titanium & Carbon Fiber to Save Weight
actually they seem to have "top load" brake pad insertion now. That is the bigger difference to the A4 compared to the weight savings imo.

First Look: Allebike Alpha Polestar Edition Gets Extra Gold, Limited to 100 Bikes
Polestar should have rather invested in / collaborated with some decent bike rack company instead. This one looks like your battery is going low before getting to the trailhead.

First Ride: Pirelli's Updated Scorpion Enduro & eMTB Tires
@Mac1987: just saying: outweighing the rubber in gold doesn't make much sense.
We are riding super high end stuff. You can get mtb tires for 15€, yet I wouldn't wanna ride them.
I don't care which tires I have on my car, I just take the cheapest ones. They are still 80€ or so (don't know actually, I couldn't care less)

First Ride: Pirelli's Updated Scorpion Enduro & eMTB Tires
@CSharp: the rubber price has risen 30% since january. It's almost 2€/kg now. Still, rubber prices neither justify the price of car nor bicycle tires.

First Ride: Pirelli's Updated Scorpion Enduro & eMTB Tires
@nickfranko: if it was all so simple as in motorized vehicles. They could just build a super hardcore 3000g enduro tire and sell it for 30€.
Cars have that stupid logic, yet buyers follow it: Bigger is more expensive. They can sell a big truck for 20000€ more than a Smartcar, without any extra technology. They just need an extra ton of steel, which costs about 1000€. Quite a margin, I guess...

Video: Thomas Vanderham & Wade Simmons Ride Germany's Newest Bike Park
"2.5h away from Frankfurt". That's about the same as saying 'somewhere in Germany - not in Frankfurt, though'
