First Ride: Revel Rascal V2

@lkubica: It's not that we don't know this, it's what I've experienced on the trail.

Review: 2024 Norco Sight - For All the Mountains

@bikehard11: I haven't swung a leg over either of the new Norco models, so I can't compare. In the short time I had on the Druid, it was an impressive 130mm-travel bike.

Bike Check: Thomas Genon's GT Fury - Red Bull Hardline Tasmania

Thomas has a 29" front wheel here, even though it looks like it's the same size.

Review: 6 Months Aboard the Specialized Levo SL eMTB

@corerider: The main point of contention for these SL type eMTBs is that they handle much closer to a non-assisted bike when you're not pedalling.

Opinion: The Big Short - Smaller Wheels Don't Require Shorter Chainstays

@moerkster: Yes that’s a great example with Santa Cruz’s lineup; Megatower vs. Nomad, Hightower vs. Bronson, etc. - and reiterates the point of the complexities in adjusting chainstay lengths on dual link bikes.

Review: EXT ERA V2.1 Fork

@novicenat-nvan I was impressed with the version that I rode, but that was quite some time ago and EXT has been making changes along the way. The Fox 38, Ohlins 38 RXF and ZEB are also great products, yet each of those has a different ride as the reviews have pointed out.
