First Look: Marzocchi's New Super Z 38mm Fork
@4thflowkage: unfortunately it’s a business tactic called ladder pricing. If you’re in the market for a fork, you probably had 0 plans to buy a $1200 fox fork, but now that Marzocchi makes one for $1000, your brain says “actually…. I could just get a fox for only $200 more”. But you feel like a smart budgeter because you didn’t spring for their highest end model, or the top of their ladder for $1500 because that’s what a dentist would do. It’s the same company, and they got $200 more out of you than if you went with the marz. It’s incredibly smart on their part; Apple does it all the time

Video: Jackson Goldstone's Red Bull Hardline Course Preview with Commentary
For year one of a hardline course, I think the dig crew has nailed this one 100%. It’s so different than wales but still way rowdier than anything 99% of us could check off. It has its unique hardline personality, that’s what makes this series special. Insane work dig team.

Pinkbike Poll: How Many Derailleurs Have You Actually Destroyed While Riding?
@tvan5: I grew up in the PNW and never broke derailleurs up there. Then I moved to Utah and the way the rocks sit right at derailleur height everywhere here usually means 1-2 destroyed a year. I don’t consider myself a hack, but maybe the fact I had to buy Hanger straightener this year says otherwise…
