Sendy seem to be doing just fine. It's a big market out there and different things appeal to different people.

If I were making something for you it would be orange and have 27.5mm of padding on the arse.
Took you a couple of days to come back at me with that?
Of course there is a market for it, it’s just not me. RUOK Stephen?

understands stuff moorey doesn't
Wasn’t sure where to pop this as the O Chain has been out a while but finally a review on it! Seems very interesting but the price is ouchy!

I've been chasing something out of the rear end of my Banshee Titan that has involved several shocks, several revalves, data acquisition equipment and I've still not found a sweet spot I've been happy with (I know there is a compromise but it's just not there yet).
Not sure why I never considered it before but the combination of an Onyx hub with its instant engagement on the Titan is potentially the issue.
The best way i can describe the feeling is like the back end stalls....like something fights against it over certain terrain/speed and it loses it's suppleness. It makes sense in my head anyway that the hub could be the issue so I've bought a Hope Pro 4 hub that I'll build up (might as well do a 27.5 as the Titan is a great mullet), with its slack engagement (relative to the Onyx) it should be enough to ascertain if it is pedal kickback or not.

I could do a chainless run to work this out but then I wouldn't have a 27.5 wheel for a mullet set up. Lets not bring too much sense into buying new stuff :p

Neko Mulally said in the downtime podcast the other day that a large number of riders are using them in the DH World Cup.
The reason for my recent gooGling as Troy won with it and it seems a lot if riders are using it now.

Feelin' a bit rrranty
.... but not as good as a Fox 49 with an Avalanche cartridge...
Dunno, you could run two of those Formulas on the bike and still be saving weight on the Avalanched 49 :p Yes I know the 49 actually isn't that heavy it's called a joke sweetie look it up
