Canyon & Liteville are revolutionizing mountain bike handling by incorporating the new Syntace KIS steering stabilizer in their top tubes...
probably right. never had a particular interest in either product.
you may not be off the mark there. wondering if this primarily a response to people complaining about wheel flop on slack h/a bikes.
pushing up their VR headset away from their eyes?
Why the fuck would you need that?
is there an ebike version?
I've got a Garmin watch that does that. Super handy for not having to stop and get the phone out while riding if your mates are like mine and always late. You can set your reply messages in it, so I've got one that says "cool see ya at the top" or whatever works for your local trails.
I thought this was the ebike version, given the images in the article.
considering the contraption, the article probably makes you dumber in the end, so i clearly didn't bother with it...
My Edge 830 just allow you to choose from one of 4 preset (non customisable) reply messages. But it's really handy being able to read messages without reaching for your phone while riding and to be able to decide whether they're important enough to need a reply or not especially on my (up to an hour long) daily commutes. Especially the 2 nights a week I'm rushing home to get there in time for my youngest. (or not if she messages a change of plan)
Yep. Phone rings and you can see who it is and decide without having to stop just to answer some telemarketer or whatever.
That's the only notification thingy I sometimes activate on my Bolt and only when on a road ride during "normal" people's typical office hours. On the mtb it's me, the trees and some birds.
What? I hear shit like that and I start to understand serial killers.
On the Canyon there's a port in the side of the headtube that lets you loosen the bolt that clamps the collar on the steerer tube. And you can take the whole assembly out if you want.
Steeper has less flop, so more stable at slow speeds but less trail so less stable at high speeds. Like most problems on a bike, the best solution is to just go faster and quit being a bitch.
at this point its only a matter of time before everything on a bike is automated. and you control it on the trail while sitting on your couch with a VR headset
