Fox Announces New Float & Float SL Shocks
So they're not making any 165 x 38mm standard mounts on either float or sl, that seems weird? RIP all the old bikes running those shocks.

Video: Maxxis Introduces New MaxxSpeed Compound & Severe Tread Pattern
looks like a they're just relaunching and slightly modified heavier tyre compound to keep the prices high, wonderful.
how is the new maxxspeed 2.35" tyre now the same weight as the 2.6" and the new 2.00" tyre (not sure who would want that anyway) the same weight as the old 2.20".
xc tyre weights are just getting silly now.

First Look: 2023 Specialized Epic World Cup
yup this is going to sell insanely well, i raced cape epic last month, i'd say more than 50% were epics or treks in amateurs. 120mm travel is complete overkill for racing and riding in my area.

First Look: Forge+Bond's New Thermoplastic Wheels
Lets draw a couple of graphs with zero actual data on and claim 80% energy saved. Whats wrong with providing actual data?
I've no doubt there is massive savings, but what is this 80% based on? their actual production volumes or some scaled up model to maximise their claims. Why can't they just market it with real data instead of some weird graph.
