    New Whip? New toys for the dependable steed?

    Not a new upgrade but an old one. Admitted to myself that people on here were right about the DHX2 and put the old (thick shaft, sadly) shock back on. Instantly felt better. Ah well, sold the DHX2 for more than I paid for it so not too shabby.

    @maxyedor I don't have enough time on them to say I've experienced this but this is concerning. They're decently powerful but I think I'll be swapping them over to my trail bike at some point.

    USD/Upside down forks?

    I got that whole "Oh, I must have a cool-looking USD fork" out of my system with the Emerald. An agricultural boat anchor of a fork.

    Going from 27.5 to 29...DH bike

    There are other recent examples of this. Ed Masters is clearly faster on a Pivot than on a Bergamont.

    Ben Cathro as The Privateer

    I actually think this deserves its own thread. Pinkbike decided to go with Cathro as their Privateer for this season, and I for one think that this is going to be some of the most entertaining DH related content coming out this year provided Covid doesn't shut it down.

    The scary part is the amount of rabid Shimano fanboys there are out there who will absolutely REFUSE to believe that anyone, ever, has had an issue with a Shimano 4pot brake.
