I would like to see more coverage of all the bikes that climb like XC bikes and descend like downhill bikes. I find that instantly believable every time.
Interbike 2016: What do you want to see?
- Thread starter Jm_
- Start date
I want to see more 27.5" 2.6 tires with real trail sidewalls.
I'm glad you're not gender biased. Sexism is for dentists.
i wanna see what kind of crazy shit the engineers from aspac come up with after a night of bath salts
i'm curious about the new DW link 8 suspension system with graffs, slopez and numberz.
i'm guessing he'll add another pivot at the rear axle and one just above it.
basically a DW link 6 with added lawill/split pivot lovechild.
robot bikes DW6 will be ancient tech after IB.
at 2017 IB he'll introduce the DW10 which will add a dual drive rocker to drive the second shorter travel shock to help manage the REALBIG™ hits, ala kestrel rubicon...keep up or be left behind, kids.

JM, if you can find a set of 2.8 Minion Dhf/Rs, can you verify if they actually measure more like 2.6's? I would actually be happy if they did...
2.6 tyres...What's not to like?!
I thought all combinations of the numbers 2 and 6 were dead?
I want to see crazy shit from the Chinese pavilion, and boobies, the rest is just a wast of my time.

You gotta go to Tijuana for that, you sick fuck
Combining goofy balloon tires and knob vomit. WINNING!!2.6 tyres...What's not to like?!

Interbike aside, what search terms does one use to pull up gifs of this nature? You know, for science.
Maybe combine Tough Mudder, umm, "races" and enduro. Riding your 170 mm bike through knee high mud pits, dragging it over wooden A-frame climbing walls, ride over barb wire laced logs, etc...Maybe also introduce a new enduro mudder specific visor hat.
As much as I like making fun of crossfit dorks, I must admit I now fully support this activity. Some genius around here figured out that crossfit afficionados like to carry heavy shit around, which coincidentally is something that happens a lot when you build and maintain mtb trails.
BOOM! Free army of diggers for which the harder they work and the heavier the load, the happier they are.
Yay symbiosis!

Look dude, I gave you the wifi password in good faith. Don't make me regret it.

EDIT: I just made that up...and go figure, it's a porn site. But best of all, it's a porn site with the Giant Bicycles headbadge/logo!

yeah those are def not what i'm talking about...who designs these tires????
with or without a 3.5mm headphone jack?
Eavesdropping on the 29er+ marketing meetings, which last year at this time were being hailed as the fleshlight for bike camping, and currently as a square peg getting pounded into a round hole by the increasingly irrelevant Cam McCaul.
It's all got to be a plot by someone who wants to go fast, perhaps someone that is really slow, to increase the mass, friction and reduce the acceleration of all other mountain bikes, by forcing them to use fat tires, "plus" sized tires, 40mm rims, extra inner tube systems, etc...
I do get the feeling we are seeing this + madness slow a bit, with tire sizes shrinking slowly...
Fat skis are dropping in width too. It got ridiculous...
Not around these parts. Pivot Switchblade is the must have bike du jour.
