Pinkbike Poll: Do You Need Downtube Storage?
I'm riding steel frames so I might be able to get a peperoni stick inside if I had internal frame storage. Doesn't seem worth the bother. I can just tape on to my bars for an emergency snack.

First Ride: Knolly Chilcotin 6.0
@BermJunky: Yup. I build custom quality wheels and it's pretty rare a wheel dies in action so they move across frames.

Wolf Tooth Announces ReMote 360 Dropper Lever
My first two droppers from Crank Bros back in 2008/9 came with these remotes. They worked fine. In fact the remotes were the best part of those droppers!

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly: Which Saddles Pinkbike's Editors Put on Their Own Bikes
I haven't used an adult diaper on a bike in years whether it's a 2hr or 12hr ride. The key is finding a saddle or two that fits your butt. I'm a lot more comfortable now than I ever was in my chamois decade+.

Review: Vittoria's 50g Air-Liner Light Promises Run-Flat Protection For XC & Trail
No. I have run Tannus Tubeless inserts in the rear of my HTs with Stans for a few years now and no issues with sealant drying out early.

How Much Do Professional Mountain Bikers Get Paid? - Pinkbike's State of the Sport Survey
Sure there is. Contact the brand of bike you ride and ask them if they pay men and women employees/racers the same. Let them know you care about that and it will factor into your purchasing decisions.
