    New smartphone: Which one is the least annoying

    I dropped my phone. Again. Although I had a screen cover + a case on it, it broke. Again. Which means it's the second screen I need to install in like four weeks on a approx. 5 year old Huawei. Which is old and slow and... well, you get the idea. So I need a new phone and I have no idea what to...

    Constantly getting logged out

    Since yesterday I constantly get logged out in Chrome (Windows). If I close the browser and open it up again I need to log in again. This doesn't happen on other websites and forums and doesn't happen on the ipad (Safari).

    Nukeproof Mega Carbon

    Sam Hill approved. If Iwas in the market for a do-it-all-bike, this would be definitely a contender. Looks insanely good, especially BB height, head angle and seat angle.

    Commencal Supreme V4.2 or the dilemma of bike sizing

    Commencal updated their DH bike. Lol What??? Seems like they definitely have no clue how the sizing of a bike should look like. But I am not even mad. Max Commencal is still only 30 years in the bike business. :busted: But a t least they got it sorted now. Definitely a bike to check out.

    Super Alloy Racing coil tuning kit

    Dave Garland (the head mechanic of the Giant DH team) has now conversion kits for your Air forks. This sounds really interesting, at least to me. I am a big fan of hydraulic bottom outs, so this could be a real performance booster for your Rockshox fork. Not sure about the two different coil...

    Giant Glory 27,5" - What's not to like?

    Sooo... I am thinking of getting a new DH bike. Right now I'm on a 2013 YT Tues LTD, which honestly is actually a damn good bike. The thing is, though, that the bike is a little bit on the small side with its 440mm reach (I am 1,90m or almost 6'3"). There are always situations, where I wish my...

    Not Schladming WC thread

    Back in Leogang where guys can win without a chain, the people are friendly, it only needs only one cloud for rain and the mountains look good. The facts: Leogang is not Schladming. Gwin won there last year without a chain. Dt Swiss got some serious street credibility there. Minnaar won his...

    New Leftalized Enduro?!

    Just stumbled over these pictures of a new Specialized bike. Quite possibly the enduro. Full on Öhlins, concentric pivot and "open" frame design. Seems fitting to push it with Graves on it:

    This is interesting: DH vs. 29" vs. 27,5" vs. 27,5"+

    Pretty interesting test they did up in Wales: Still fastest on DH tracks: Downhill bikes. Fastest trailbikes: 29" 27,5"+ is basically sh!t due to punctures and wobblyness. I think 29" DH bikes will be seen in the future. For certain tracks like Ft. BIll for example it makes totally sense...

    Is Sram introducing the 1 x 12?

    They say goodbye to the derailleur. And in the article about the Zerode trailbike there was a hint about the 12 gears of the pinion. "A number soon to be popular with more then just the Pinion gearbox."
