Excellent! Thanks a lot. It’s a real treat to hear some calm, thoughtful musings on the topic.

[@thenbuck9]

You guys are doing awesome with your KZbin series. Great stuff. Keep it coming.

[@FormulaItaly]

Thx man, your appreciation means a lot for us.

[@clemc4662]

Great content guys! Good to see you are questioning the status quo and the actual development of the industry and not trying to chase the big names of the market. Rebels are needed to wake up the sheep. ;)

[@FormulaItaly]

Thx a lot man! We try to do our best. Thx for following our channel.

[@geanhitchcock1170]

that is the second person who is ahead of the game. we need to go back to the past and look at what worked and adapt it for now. his bike and a gearbox plus good suspension with adjusablities is the way forward. will we in 10 years time be saying his bike is the best, i think we will. thank you for the great content.

[@FormulaItaly]

Yep, the bike industry needs a more forward-thinking approach and maybe a bit less marketing. Thx for following us.

[@lejendpolevault5345]

How are these guys that approach things with logic and sense so far and few between!? Sounds like RapMan frames could make an appearance.

[@Wbs70]

thanks for that!

Does it get to a point with a 62.5 ha that the forks dont work as intended and there must be some binding on those fork bushes

[@BruchpilotRacing]

It works totally fine. Even the wear in the bushings wasn't really increased.

Adjustble geo as it currently is is not more than a shitty gadget. Adjustble geo is one if the best things you can do to a bike, but requiring it to work without having to change anything about the rest of the setup limits its potential a lot. Who has to adjust his geo on a ride? Nobody. Just add a second shock mount and sell diffrent linkage parts for a frame and you could completely change the rear end and geo of the bike for 100 to 200 bucks. I guess this simply doesnt fit into todays business model of planned obsolencense and having a million bikes for a million purposes.

[@FormulaItaly]

Interesting, Geometron is doing something similar.

[@obi-wankenobi9871]

@@FormulaItaly Yes, they do, but their bikes arent exactly what you would call affordable. For the price of one you can nearly buy two, which defeats the idea of transforming your bike into a second one through adjustments to the geo.
