First Look: Crankbrothers Cleat Tool Simplifies Setup

I hear you, for someone to try and duplicate on Fusion 360 or another platform, their time would be more than the retail price of $5.99. As far as a downloaded stl file being exclusive, I don't know. I've made lots of bike related parts on my printers but primarily use them for prototyping of future products or making prototypes for contracted clients.

Maybe CB could sell a downloadable stl file, say for $4.99 so that people could 3D print this themselves. We all know that in time, these will be downloaded for free on Thingiverse or similar.

Review: SeaSucker Talon Bike Rack - Does It Suck?

Mounting the bike to the rack....I designed the Hurricane Components Fork Up way back in 1996. In the instructions, it was suggested that you mount the Fork Up on the fork, while still on the ground of course, then put the bike onto the rack. I see so many Fork Ups mounted on racks and I guess people are mounting their bikes this way(above) instead...idk....but it does make more sense doing it on the ground instead of holding up a 30 lb+ bike, lining up the fork to the mount, then sliding the axle though. Maybe Sea Sucker should do something similar.

Pinkbike Poll: What's The Least Awful Word That Means 'Not An E-Bike'?

How about calling it what it is "mountain bike" (or road bike, gravel bike, etc.)? why is a new name for a bike warranted when a new bike segment comes around?

Review: TranzX EDP01 Wireless Electronic Dropper Post

I do like the lever on this post more then the other wireless options.....although I haven't tried it yet, it looks like a better design.

Review: TranzX EDP01 Wireless Electronic Dropper Post

Dropper post have come a long way since I first introduced them in 2001 (Hurricane Elevator Shaft) where the first models had indexed drops within 75mm of total drop, accessed by a pull knob on the shaft to raise/ lower it. Our later and last version had a lever on the handlebar similar to current designs. I love seeing all the advancements and appreciate that companies are not resting on just cable( or hydraulic) activation.

28 Handlebar & Stem Setups of Enduro World Cup Riders

@NZRalphy: Of course not( well I guess I could if it was worth my time doing so), but I have bikes with 800mm bars and bikes with 740mm widths. I'm pretty damn certain none of these, at least on the men's bikes are 740mm width.
