Newly Released Bikes General

[moorey]

It’s always funny to see how bad companies are at resisting the lure of increasing travel with model revisions, even when the point of the bike in the first place was to provide a shorter travel option.

I want more travel, that improved technology makes feel like less travel when pedalling.

What? I’m not riding a 20yo outdated suspension alloy bike. You’re riding a 20yo outdated suspension alloy bike!

I know plenty of people who say the commies are too heavy. None of my mates riding them complain about how they ride though.

The release vid is fun too. The kids liked it, if the wife enjoys it too that means I can get one right?

Ah, phew. I’ve seen stupider things though.
Wasted opportunity to string me along there.

More importantly I enjoyed it.
So yes, you can definitely have one!
You can tell the wife you have my blessing if that helps.

Those stanchions must have taken a beating shuttling to the top.

How could it not

 

[Ultra Lord]

How could it not

Worst case you’ll get a chuckle and “whose this dickbutt guy?”

Best case? New bike time!

 

[pink poodle]

He should buy now and then explain later. "the dick butt made me do it..."

 

[sane]

How does it go? Easier to seek forgiveness for dickbutt making me do it than to ask for permission
