He is a downhill racer, so 150 or 160mm of travel is short for him.

yeah, but just because shimano is doing the same, it doesn't mean sram shouldn't do it...

why does Robin Wallner have 2 different number plates?

I don't get why "chyu" was neg proped. He was right about the safety. I don't think a pro should have to wear full body protection, but some standarts like knee pads should be a rule at worldcup races. It's not my problem, when Justin Leov ends up with a knee less, but these guys should think about the kids that look up to them!! And the Top 5 were all wearing knee pads, so in the end it's about how much power you can put down, and not how comfortable your clothes are.

yeah, but then the shifting would be really hard, so the idea is to create more chain tension without needing to go to the gym to train your thumbs for shifting!

great article!

you would be so dead on that track...
