Intend Teases WonderNipple Concept
Reminds me of a PEM press-fit clinch stud, which only go down to FHx-M2.5-x commercially available. Which works in metal great.
So, what makes the studs grip in a carbon rim? And what happens when the stud insert decides to leave the chat?
Neat tech, no interest in buying

Public Safety Notice Issued After Vancouver Island Trails Found Booby-Trapped With Steel Spikes
Those look like laser-cut mild steel parts all day long my friend. "Non-magnetic steel" means 300-series stainless steel which has a very different colour and laser-cut edge appearance from what I see in the pics.

Built Not Bought: Julius Schlender's Steel Gearbox Masterpiece
@pmhobson: It's just information converting from one standards system to another - like how 20 kilos is roughly 48 Natty Lights

No, Avinox Isn't Purchasing Mondraker Bikes
What's an Avinox? Is it like an Oxy? I thought that stuff was bad if you got hooked on it

13 Cool Jobs in the Mountain Bike Industry Right Now
@watchtower: It's amazing how close together those places are! But I hear the riding sucks, booo!
We're missing Devinci in Saguenay, Quebec just North of the meca of Quebec City hubs from this list!
I have a 2004 Titus MotoLite that was welded in Tempe, Arizona, long before Chris pivoted and started Pivot Cycles...
Who are the losers that down-voted us lol

Frames from $150: Knolly’s Canadian Headquarters Up for Public Auction
Ouch! Just noticed the other week that they had updated their website with new colourways and builds.
Wish I had connections over there for pick-up & shipping!
Pretty happy with my gen4 Endorphin trail bike and gen5 Chilcotin big bike. Hope Noel can turn this turd of a situation around!
They do have a 3rd party company listed under Rigging & Removals for shipping... maybe?

Allied Fitz Review: The XC Rider's Trail Bike?
@schu2470: Funny but the geo almost perfectly matches my 5th gen Knolly Chilotin 167. Not the newer 6th gen which kinda got out of hand on reach. But large for large, they track the same, and this is supposed to be a trail bike. Interesting!
