- Thread starter anonDH
- Start date
I podiumed strength elite several times and 1 of them I finished course with a ripped calf muscle..another time broke my wrist on a lift still got 2nd in strength...they happened during and when it's on I'll cut my own leg off to win...but going in if I'm questioning a injury and can't modify the movement path to remedy it I'll let others battle...
Completely agree with this...let another have their chance and don't crush your numbers and run risk of longer down time...
They used to have great looking bikes....did they outsource the engineering and design team to China as well????
Paint job aside, I don't think that bike looks bad.They used to have great looking bikes....did they outsource the engineering and design team to China as well????
But whats going on with that chain?
And only a lower guide? Reasoning?
You mean they look like the 90s? Yes, they do.
From a design point of view, the bend in both top and down tubes makes the bike look like it broke in half. Further, that the seat stays and the top tube do not have at least the same angle, better form one line, is a no-no for me.
I don't think it looks bad. Maybe it's because of the funky 'prototype' decals they put on their test bikes, but it looks like it's part of the newer generation of Intense bikes like the M29. I just hope they've kept up with the geometry trends with this one. I feel like every time they release a new enduro bike, it's already out-dated: long rear ends, slack seat tube, short reaches.
I mean... they kinda look like almost every "long-travel" Santa Cruz and SpecialEd... so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯They used to have great looking bikes....did they outsource the engineering and design team to China as well????
I'm waiting for Costco to sell the Intense ebikes....
To be fair, looks like Costco is $350 cheaper?
In a time where parts and logistics are on super delay (I'm still waiting for a new Commencal order placed back in March), Intense has enough inventory to sell to Costco?!?!? Riddle me that.

Because even during a pandemic and massive supply issues, nobody wants to buy an Intense?
Nobody said they look good, or?
See here with the Last: seat stays and top tube form a line. The Intense's are not even parallel (Santa Cruz aren't as well, but to a lesser extend), which is accentuated by the bend in the top tube and the seat tube gusset thingy.
In the old days the Tracer did not have this design flaw.

But Intense is selling bikes at Costco... so maybe?
Only guys with ugly bikes, cars, women .... say this.I'd say that:

Ugly car(s): check
My wife, OTOH, bucks the trend.
