New & Interesting Bike Campenaerts

I wanted to try it to see whether taking the cable out of the shift system on a bike with rear suspension might change shift quality.

Schwalbe maybe just obsoleted a lot of usecases for tire inserts?

to get shitload of tire deformation and grip even at higher air pressures

Radial tires were huge for cars, I need to do some digging and see why we never had them for bikes

They were a thing Panaracer produced back in the 80s. I would guess they lost favor because of weight.

Michelin makes radial moto tires. I wonder why they haven’t tried it yet.

Some interesting comments starting from “gtscoob” First Ride: Schwalbe's New Albert Gravity Pro Tires Use a Radial Casing for Improved Grip - Pinkbike

On the one hand I want to try them and interesting tidbit about Pierron using them. Soon as they said commencal has been running them I thought back to their results—wow ok.

On the other hand: goddamn I am not voluntarily swapping mtb tires lol.

Backed. I’m riding these DHF/DHRs into the casing before I deal with swapping

Have we stalked about Lewis brake calipers?

oooh, consider me interested

get me off codes, PLEASE

$339 for a front/rear pair seems too good to be true.

I mean, I run Codes because I can get them new for $120-140 a wheel consistently. These would actually be more spendy for me :joy:

Review of the really fancy Ti ones.

What’s up with Radial vs Axial master cylinders? Edit: ok quick search says radial master cylinder will require less force to operate.

omg I love this

TAKE MY MONEY

HELL YEAH

There is no chance I don’t finish my 6er and end up ordering the silver ones

how do I not just spend $700 to put this on my splatter bike and the camo pair on my other bike.

does this lead to a lifetime of sourcing proprietary brake pads?
