quotes This is becoming a joke. I can't believe the way the industry is moving with dozens of new standards and technology changing as quick as computers. How about perfecting your products before you come out with completely new everything? I love blowing $900 on an 831 only to have problems out of the box or spending $1500 on a Boxxer only to have to rebuild it every few weeks. The worst part of the mtb industry is how so many of us consumers are so used to being the "guinea pigs" for products. I knew perfectly well that by buying a new Boxxer fork there is a high chance I was going to have problems given Rock Shox's reputation and my past experience with their products. I have had varying degrees of problems with almost EVERY SINGLE Rockshox/Avid/Truvativ product I have ever owned. But I still bought it because every company has a flaw in someway or another! Joke is on me I guess....

quotes That's unreal. I've seen moto guys pull it before but they have like an hour of airtime.... I never thought I'd see it on a MTB!

quotes Sick vid as always Nic- looked like such a good time! Just curious, did Visser land that flip cliffhanger cleaner then the shot of him doing it in the video...? Obviously that trick is insane but how does that count as best trick when he didn't even get his feet on?

quotes After my terrible experience with the 50/50xx pedals, the Joplin, and a headset (can't remember the model) ....I have SUCH a hard time giving my hard earned money to a company that uses consumers as guinea pigs.

quotes I usually to go to whistler every summer for two weeks to ride the mountain and surrounding areas. Last summer I reluctantly decided to go to kamloops first for a few nights and then drive to whistler. I wished I had just stayed my whole trip in kamloops. Between sun peaks, bike ranch, and some of the hidden trails scattered throughout the mountains I was blown away and I probably only scratched the surface. Had an absolute blast there.

quotes @ dthomas I am really just blown away by what you are saying. Saying they are making too much profit? Do you actually think they are making too much profit off these? How can they make too much profit when it costs them probably 5-10 times more money to produce these pedals than it costs Wellgo? Just look at the end caps alone! Wellgo is probably ripping you off more than Twenty6 if you're just talking about profit margins. Second, there are barely any pedal companies that have an overhead on machining. Only companies that actually make their own pedals in house have any machine overhead. Most bike companies nowadays are run from an office - with a factory in Taiwan on speed dial.
