The listing price on pinkbike is $5,000 but I want to offer it locally for much cheaper, $3500 if you...

    DT Swiss Forks?

    Does anyone have experience riding DT Swiss forks? I know Nino Schurter was riding them on his bikes back when he dominated the XC racing world. I found this fork on eBay that would fit the bill for my hardtail and am tempted, but want to hear some first-hand info about DT Swiss forks before...

    Do I need to run a T-Type Cassette with Transmission Drivetrain?

    Or can I opt for an older model of eagle cassette? Is it the case that performance of the transmission drivetrain is reduced by running a non-T type cassette?

    The graveyard - post your most destroyed bike part

    I hadn’t ever broken a wheelset in my 11 years of mountain biking until this weekend. I was feeling very confident at the end of my ride and rode up to this one feature at a local park of mine in northeastern Massachusetts, a 20ish foot stream gap… welp, I didn’t get enough speed and cased the...

    The Book Thread

    I hated reading as a kid; it always felt like a chore. The American revolution and 1776, Shakespeare, Beowulf… awful. As I’ve aged, though, I’ve learned that I can read about things that actually interest me. Crazy, right? I’ve been loving economics-based books and nonfiction more broadly...

    Are 26” tubes still as valuable as gold for bike shops?

    I remember at the beginning of the pandemic bike shops could not get their hands on 26” inner tubes. Is that still the case? I just found 4 boxed up in my garage and figured I’d throw it out there to see if a shop might want them before tossing them.
