Newly Released Suspension & Components General

[Mr Crudley]

Kazimer answers a question in the PB comments saying it's covered in clear plastic.

So they did a great job of highlighting the raw polystyrene to get the cheap effect.

PB comments are a bunch of fun when some manufacturer comes in on their high horse.
The profit margin on these must be massive. Definitely a Covid times bike product.

TLD could have had a niche making expensive sticker kits for the top 5 common MTB helmets.
They did some fine work IMHO but probably out of fashion in the matte black everything era.

TLD will always be in fashion.
Their gloves have “pop wheelies” on them!




That helmet though. Bleugh.

Ha! True, I have a few pair of these on my glove tree in the shed. It is good to be reminded.

Yep, looks to have died before release. Stupid pricing first and foremost.

They make good jerseys

The helmet screams trading on brand name.

They make good pyjamas

Fixed.

A1 good, A2 more air holes, A3 more cash.

And less cowbell by the gentle PB comments.

Will be interesting to see the price on the DHX. A more affordable and less complicated alternative to the DHX2 seems like a great niche to hit for modern trail bikes.

Except there's already a DHX2 and X2 that just have lsc and lsr...

I wonder if there's any changes to Bomber forks?

I fuggin' hope not! (Okay, maybe add the air-burp valves to the lowers, and change the dials/top cap to black anno - but otherwise leave 'em be!)

$1000 for mech/shifter/battery not too bad, $400 cheaper than the next AXS in the line up.

Pushys has it for $850... not horrible, but its still SRAM

And wait for one of their % off sales and cheaper again but after tweaking my brothers normal GX would be hesitant as not the best build quality at this price point you would hope it would be well built!
