Newly Released Bikes General

[Litenbror]

Egg on face. I googled it as I swear I was told someone else runs I-track. Yourself and @slowmick are correct. I will see myself out.

Not completely wrong I dont think. I seem to remember one of the designers from GT was part of the original i-track design.

The question is does anyone give a fuck what Intense are doing these days? They haven't done anything interesting for 5 years.

 

[Isildur]

I do, but purely from an "Old DHer but never likely to ride a real DH bike again in my life" kind of stand point.

I like this more though

I don't know if it's been mentioned - I don't know if I've beaten the press release?

Maybe. Just says "RockShox suspension" in the specs.

 

[Jabubu]

So they're dropping the Revelation perhaps?

Not new but saw this and thought it was cool. Its a clutch cover for shimano derailleurs that puts a sram lockout on it.

Yup picked up a couple of these a when they were still available...I believe copyrights/patents put and end to that...
Not currently running a Shimano derailleur
on any bike so if someone wants one hit me up. I does require you to remove the stop pin on the cage though...so without a chain it would rotate right around.

Okay it's a Scott, which means it's surprisingly light and unsurprisingly expensive, but still has some interesting stuff going on, even if it does look like an ebike (it isn't).

I just don't get the whole hidden shock thing. Seems like it's some sort of Asian cinema in-joke, or a fetish, perhaps even an anti-fetish given the "action" of a shock

So all of us analogue bikers can fit in with the ebike crowd.

Shouldn't they just blur the shock?

 

[caad9]

One visible cable on the whole bike is pretty pleasing on the eye.
Like the paintjob, don't like the E-bike aesthetic

 

[komdotkom]

I don't get it. E-bikes are ugly, so they make a bike look like an E-Bike?

To the masses everything is ebike these days. I've been asked so many times where the motor / battery is on my bikes I can't even be bothered punching them in the face anymore.

I usually get that from curious walkers. What type of e bike is that. Takes deep breath. No batteries here mate just powered by me.

I’ve always disliked the design of Evils and bikes like Forbiddens with the shock tunnel because they hide the shock. I WANT to see the shock. It’s part of package. And let’s face it if you’ve just spent dentist money on a shiny EXT or the like the last thing you want to do is hide it.
I do agree that bike design seems to be homogenising and normalising Ebbs and meat powered to look the same.
