I've pulled apart a LOT of bikes. I've never seen a brake hose run through a piece of pivot hardware.

(Further design points lost with dropper cable and brake hose going through the headset bearing)

Much sadness.
Many expletives.

With new wheels and tyres, this Epic is 1.25kg lighter, ALL of it rotating/ unsprung weight.

Alloy vs Carbon
DT Swiss vs RaceFace

For the Chonky Boiz who ride ebikes......this is the HSC tune you all so desperately need in your Float X2 (well... actually most of the ebike tunes are pretty crappy in stock form but if you fall within the manufacturers window of averages..... you'll never notice...)

The video makes the high end hub sound louder than it really is - it is almost completely silent out on the trails, and makes for a sublime ride where the bike almost disappears underneath you.

Workshop Wednesday:

This Giant Anthem needed all of its lower pivot bearing replaced at the same time the shock was rebuilt.

Having a high performance shock attached to a linkage that doesn't move is a bit pointless πŸ˜„πŸ‘
