titanium.
ah the possibilities. imagine: steel bolts are 50% heavier than titanium alloy bolts, so really that’s a massive saving. a full one third lighter! weight is very important, especially when you got to carry it up the mountain before you can shred back down. every gram counts, and this is why we are going to…

since the invention of tubeless tyres flats are mostly a thing of the past. here is why: typical accidental pinch flats, where the rims punch nice holes in the tube as you ride over something substantial at higher-than-safe speeds can’t happen when there is no tube, right? and if something goes right through the tyre?…
