Speaking of hardtails. I kinda want a carbon Spot Rocker single speed (chain not belt). My old single speed feels like a clunker now.

Yes, I recently watched their video about Cannondale Caad10 recommended by bike reviews hub. They're sharing very useful stuff about cycling productsQuote:

Gorgeous
Not messing around with tire choice! I still have the original tires on mine and enjoy the lack of heft, but I'm sure I'll have minions on it next.
Fully torqued to finally get this. Delivered at 6:30 this morning from a shop in the disputed zone of where the upstates starts. Unfortunately it’s hot, humid, and raining so it’ll be at least a few hours before I can get out on it. Attachment 378161
The shop ordered a ton of bikes from Ibis in April 2020. I put a deposit on this in October with a planned March delivery. They finally started rolling in this month. He’s flush with Ripmos and Ripleys now. If anyone’s looking shoot me a PM.
Nice Flounder, love to see the XT bits hanging on it.

Nice Flounder! Sent you a PM, have a buddy looking.
Thanks! Old habits die hard. Always been Shimano for MTB and Campy for road. Also demoed the switchblade with SRAM and it shifted like crap on the low end where I spend a lot of time during climbs. Probably not tuned well but it was from Pivots demo fleet so you’d think they’d have them dialed. The ripmo I demoed was XT and it shifted like a dream.Quote:

Great looking bike Flounder I can see why you’re stoked!
Anyone know if the 2022 bikes have dropped?
I looked at the specialized stumpy evo site and they have two new models and there are two Stumpy Evo Expert with diff prices. Have they come and gone are they about to go on preorder??
https://www.specialized.com/ca/en/sh...mpjumper%2BEVO
Many brands are shipping as early as September. They won’t announce or market them until they actually ship.
I think anything marked with ‘new’ is a 2022 model. So there are a few new bikes on the site.
also… I hadn’t looked through how expensive specialized bikes are these days. Pretty insane.

That makes sense now. I scanned through those prices and was surprised how much Specialized had bumped things up. In USD, the prices are still pretty good deals for what you're getting.Quote:

Got it.
I was looking at every s-works bike being $15k and balking.

My shorts are pretty tight.

No doubt. Really want to try one of these high pivot bikes. I had a supreme sx in my cart when they were on sale a few years ago. Commencal shouldve stuck with it for their enduro bikes it seems

I've ridden a few high pivot DH bikes, but this will be my first foray into a pedally one. Very curious to see how it goes.
