Video: Welcome to the 2023 Enduro Bike Field Test
Buchanan tried a variety of ways to fix his dropping chain, but never tried a non SRAM derailleur. Shimano clearly have the better clutch’s at present.

Video: Chance Encounter with King Charles While Riding in Scotland
A country with a lot of sycophants, unfortunately. Just watching the BBC created Pepper Pig episodes with my young son, show’s just how early the Brits try and indoctrinated the young into worshipping the royals (they call it culture).

Interview: World Cup Brake Tech with Hayes
Recently purchased a new full Hayes 4pot set up, after burning thru my previous brakes badly, at the recent EDR in Maydena. I’m disappointed in the genuine Hayes brake bleed kit, $100 aussie tokens paid, an they came with exactly ZERO olives. So u cant even do a cut and bleed fit with brand new purchased brakes. Then to compound the disappointment, yes the syringes draw bubble all over the place ( like the mechanic said).
As far as performance goes of the actual brake an disc combo, its early days, and im still on the fence on how they compare ( still running the original organic pads, which i think may be keeping them from really hooking up) . I came from a Shigura set up with xtr levers an mt5 calipers on galfa discs, which worked really well until Maydena.

First Look: Hope's New Pro 5 Hubs
I find that they dont sell all the hubs spare parts. As i have a young hope pro 4 hub, with a blown ratchet ring. Cant seem to buy them anywhere, which is a shame.

Bike Check: Comparing Jack Moir, Kasper Woolley & Christian Textor's New YT Capra Race Bikes
I suspect thru pure speculation, that the teams ASX derailers must have stronger control spring then stock. An throw a DSD runt cartridge into the fork, an now you have a sram blackbox fork.

The Pinkbike Podcast: Episode 144 - Interview with an Illegal Trail Builder
There no shame in enjoying an E bike. The problems start when you drink the kool-aid, and believe that your still mountain biking.
Have you seen the latest E-EWS footage from Crans Montana. Riders using two feet off the pedals, and the bikes keep accelerating up the hill thru the technical terrain, all UCi approved of course. There’s nothing wrong with enjoying a childs motor cycle, one day i might get one. But when i do, i wont pretend that im still a mountain biker.

Final Results from the Les Gets DH World Champs 2022
@kcw72: Try not to put your eggs in any SBS TV baskets. Renowned for screwing up mtb coverage. SBS is such a weird tv station, they love road cycling. But absolutely hate the demographic of Australian’s that’s interested in it.
