      I need to go to Utah.
      Utah?
      Yeah, Utah. It's wedged in between Wyoming and Nevada. You've seen pictures of it, right?

      So after 15 years we finally made it to Utah.....


      Thanks BCSAR and POWMOW Ski Patrol for rescues

        It's clearly not a bike for most people most of the time, or that couldn't be, umm, refined a bit. But, literally no one thought it was going to go down like this:

        Levy: Yoann, here's a bike we built as a joke. Oddly I actually kinda like it, but I'm an idiot whose opinion is worthless.

        Barelli: This bike fucks.

          I had 37 cents on broken head tube. Or the chainstay breaking from all of the chain slap.

          That was well worth the wait.

              2021 Bikes That Make Your Shorts Tighter.

              They are probably like, “don’t tell him how to get an unsponsored rider to win in Chile!!!!”


              Also, how much more time do you think he would have put over the Commencal if he just went chainless the entire way???

                Trance X. I picked one of these up yesterday, it does have the SLX cranks as shown in the pictures. And it is a pretty sweet deal. A bit heavy at just over 33lbs but my old bike weighed that and it was a 26” so still ok.

                      Is there really not gonna be a Ripley AF? The Ripmo AF with SLX build is $4,000, but that's way too much bike for those of us who live in places like Missoula where a hardtail can keep up with FS on a lot of trails. Yes, I am aware there are moreover rocks when you get out of town.

                      Ripley AF SLX for $4,000 would be amazing. I might even be able to buy one [emoji23]
                      No longer stuck.

                        RidEgg Trail Pistol? Looks like they don't have SLX under the options but pretty sure they could set that up.

                          I wouldnt be surprised if canfield has something reasonably priced to fill that niche. Im guessing its only a matter of time before the revised toir/riot comes out. New balance and one look amazing. The One is a badass bike

                              Do you have the 2 or 3? That bike looks so good on paper. I might have to go with the cheap Carbon one because I I prefer RS suspension over Fox but its looks like Giant are finally a "deal" again.

                                I hope they sell that Trance X as a frame only in the aluminum.
