I’d actually like to read what Aaron has to say about the Treefrog/s. If memory serves, he worked at a tiny Nor Cal shop that specialized in MTBs (which I used to frequent).

I also screenshot but I work in a faraday cage and could not upload

I dunno man, that was absolutely preposterous. This article is just vague and apparently wrong.

Also poorly written which is par for the course.

I don’t know much about the content of the story, but you can be an expert on subjects without having lived it. I mean, there are experts on the Tokugawa Shogunate.

This is true, but if there’s an actual living expert then I would assume they’re the first port of call for anything related.

Add Prolly’s history of being wrong all the time and you get laughs like this

The “article” feels like a bunch of half-assed notes, personal anecdotes and comments were strung together to meet a deadline, with pretty pictures being the glue to hold it all together. I went back and re-read the piece, and it’s much closer to a jumping-off point than anything else.

if it got to 4.2lbs (1.9kg) for frame AND fork I’d consider… @igor what say you?
