That is not only a f**king URL shortener spyware crap link, but also completely unrelated spam.

You can have a -100 gr disc version from Hashtagggg

oh my god

You sayin' these are forged?

I'm always baffled by the Gilles' decisions to not ride (Heubach last year, Krakow, now this), given the level of obsession (and talent) one needs to get to his level. His decisions were right, though.

This is properly obsessive tuning. Nice work! Apart from the cranks, I can't see something that is way too light for its geometry or material when you are a smooth rider and don't do much wedging (shorter-than-wheelbase obstacle between the wheels). I don't know anything about the rear tyre or these forks, just that Hashtagg went way lighter than this with their new disc forks. The brakes will leak, of course, but no one produces rim brakes with Magura-die-casting quality nowadays.

Normal angle on his current bike though.

Perhaps Magura still has the old casting machines and forms. Anyone fancy opening a new brake factory?

Edit: Sumbitch, overfull heading: because he didn't ride in the French championship final. Frog federation FFC decided to disqualify him. He did a show at the Tour de France instead of competing.

I see.

What did snap?

Ask Hope.

My bad. I totally forgot to apply internet statistics™.

It's about using all your power while still going straight up (seen from the side, of course).

You can most probably jump higher than most of the world elite then. 90 vert is somewhere in the top 1%, I guess. 70 is 95 perc at peak age, if I remember correctly. It's down to learning the move.

It's proper uncool, that's for sure. Maybe it would suit me.

Nice!

Nice outcome. I have only seen people getting so addicted that they can't leave home without these things.

Addiction galore.

As I wrote in the ither thread: Emergency disconnect for seat and pedal contact, electric drive, "trackstand replacement" struts with handlebar remote -> world-improving product I bet Martyn will be able to trackstand again at some point, however.

I have seen some hardcore riders use these stems for years, when their frames snapped after two months frequently. Nice bike, btw.

I'm pretty sure some old school BMX shop will still have that saddle, I remember laying my hands on one of these.

Exactly. Electric drive, disconnecting rider restraints for a crash, automated struts.
