shouldn't the arch on the 'rear fork' be the other way around, though?!

First Ride: The Yeti MT Aims to Do It All
@toast2266: loved my 5.5 and rode it for 4 seasons. at one point i also had a ripley ls and a capra 29 bue sold both of them because the yeti went up hills better than the ripley and down hills better than the capra.
about a year after selling it i got a 130 lunch ride and even though it was a decent bike, it never had that 5.5 magic and felt worse pretty much everywhere. sometimes a bike just has a bit of magic that is hard to quantify. also, i probably put 11k-12k miles on mine and never had any issues with switch linkage. granted, i ride in very dry conditions and clean my bike after every ride.

Results: 2026 Downieville Classic
must be frustrating to actually win one of the two days AND have the lowest combined time but lose to someone with a longer total time and no 'stage' wins. obviously, the racers know the rules ahead of time, but still.

E-Bike Specs Decoded: What Peak Power, Torque, and Assistance Ratios Really Mean
@bigtuna00: i remember a GCN video from maybe 2017 or 2018 that was discussing maximum human output on a bike. the highest verified figure they could find was from a former bmx racer who put out a bit over 3000w, albeit for just a few seconds. seems like a blessed combo of perfect genetics and shit tons of training for that one very specific, short, explosive effort. interestingly, according to google anyway, usain bolt's maximum output during a 100m was only just over 2600w, which is obviously absurd but surprisingly lower than i would have guessed given the world record(s) he set

is the mech cable extra long so he can reach down to shift gears manually?!

First Ride: Specialized’s New DH Bike Has a Wild Drivetrain & a Lot to Prove
@Austink: ok, so I tried this out while riding today and honestly never found a situation where manipulating the seat with the inside of my leg made sense. Mostly, the bike was tipped far too much to be able to even make contact with the saddle at all, at least not without putting my body in a very contorted and useless position. I’m a bit under 5’6” so maybe this is just a body geometry issue that isn’t a problem for taller or very long limbed riders. Either way- Different strokes for different folks, I guess!

First Ride: Specialized’s New DH Bike Has a Wild Drivetrain & a Lot to Prove
@Austink: in my experience, if my legs or knees get anywhere near the saddle while riding downhill, i will get loads of bruises from the frame or saddle rapidly smashing them on jarring hits. i just use my hands and feet to control the lean of the bike but i am going to try this when riding later and will see if manipulating the saddle with my legs is something that is either possible or useful. sounds like this is a more common approach that i would have thought
