Have cake, eat it too. Shock is protected from mud, fits large reservoir shock plus two water bottles.Propain reacted to the criticism with moving the shock in front of the seat tube. I think what the old Intense, SC or currently GG are doing is ideal regarding not getting your shock covered in shit, but where do I store my toobs, water bottles, tools, the kitchen sink on the frame to look full enduro??
I'm going to need a @Full Trucker judgement on the uniqueness of that view. Additional comment from @Nick @Adventurous or @stoney also permitted.
I probably have taken a picture of that post leaning against my bike more times than I have not. I wonder if I have a picture of that post leaning against every bike I've ever owned even?
This.
Yeah did that last year. Luckily (or unluckily), we did it in the pouring rain so we were the only riders out there. Twas a nice trail and ride. The descent back down to the car was awesome.
A test bike with NX cranks? FAKE NEWS
Not a bad review. Interesting to hear about the Supreme's shock base tune. I typically send my shocks off for custom tuning, but I am usually trying to squeak out extra performance. A new bike incl. shock should at least give the new owner a starting point to feel out the bike etc. I can only imagine how many riders buy bikes which they think will be the dogs nuts, only to struggle because they are race bikes. Plenty showed up in my local during lockdown.
are bike parks in switzerland actually open this time of year? or is it just that bad of a winter?Spotted: Prototype Full Suspension Bike Spied Near BMC Headquarters - Pinkbike
The bike was spotted at the Magglingen cable car, 20km from BMC's headquarters in Grechen.m.pinkbike.com
race tunes for elite level racers are generally much stiffer than most people can take advantage of. interesting that would be their base tune, but also good for the kind of rider looking for that sort of thing.
The concentric rear pivot suggests it's a Devinci...this one is interesting:
I don't know what lift that is, but there are lots of different lifts, trams, and other conveyances in the Alps that are not necessarily in bike parks.
Ah cool. The only thing I know about a Stagea, is the one that the Mighty Car Mods guy built.

we have a manufacturing site in Grenchen, maybe i should start looking for an excuse to visit.cable cars are part of the public transport system in switzerland
if that photo was taken in Biel, the downhill track there is accessible year round via the public cable car:

Set humus is right. The public transportation train shuttled spots are always open but snowy in winter. We had a lot of rain and warm temps which melted all the snow in the valleys. It’s spring conditions in the mountains and the train shuttled spots are going off right now. There’s also some logging going on in those spots and some trees in run outs of steep chutes.

did you look inside that massive headtube?
I thought that space was reserved for the water heater.
