What Protective Gear Were Riders Wearing at Red Bull Hardline BC?

@thekaiser: I know/know of 3 people who are in wheelchairs from mountain biking, pretty sure they were all compression.

No Saw Needed: Newmen Releases Adjustable Width Phase Carbon Handlebars

@just6979: crazy idea, but the rental shop could adjust the bars to the rider when they come in and then leave them at that width for the day.

Race Analysis: Breaking Down the Numbers from Red Bull Hardline BC 2026

@bikesandbeers: That's why I chose the World Cup as well. A Hardline track is so rad and I'd rather watch that IF all the top riders were there. But I was happy to see all the world's best come down at Whistler.

Asa Vermette Lands Massive 97ft Backflip at Red Bull Hardline BC

@scott-townes: guess there's no real definition... but it seems like this current "Wave" started with Jackson/Jordan Williams. Young riders that are competing for top spots in the world cup - Asa, Jordan Williams, Jackson, Alran brothers, Lachy, etc. But shit, thats just my opinion.

Steve Vanderhoek Suffers Concussion & Broken Nose During Red Bull Hardline Practice

@baileygoldstone: @baileygoldstone: He put a JK right in there so show that "just a concussion" is not JUST a concussion... that was the point of that. also saying if anyone's poor feeling were hurt, then writing 2 paragraphs is a bit ironic. You're rad and I really like your contributions on here, you have a lot of knowledge (and are a kick ass rider). But the irony is there hah.

Review: Schwalbe's Redesigned Tacky Chan Pro Radial Tire

@andreas2634: I have enough things to blame already haha. Bike too heavy, tires too wide, tires roll too slow... mostly I'm not as fit as some people but we'll ignore that

Review: Schwalbe's Redesigned Tacky Chan Pro Radial Tire

I want one of these for the name alone. Except someone said they are very noticeably slow on the climb, and I'm already noticeably slow on the climb.
