soft-arse Yuley is on the lifts again
Yes! I just discovered this yesterday. Watched the episodes on suspension, brakes, wheels and bars/stem. I thought they were all really good. He obviously is coming at it from a particular viewpoint (IE - a racer wanting the best performing equipment that is also consistent ans easy to maintain) but he makes that clear from the start.This has been an interesting series:
SUSPENSION COMPARISON - Let’s Go Racing Season 2, Episode 5

Ohlins really seem to be coming along, their product line up is looking like more and more of a threat to the established players.
I found it really interesting that the stock Fox/Rockshox forks were probably set to deliver the best performance for the average rider but that let them down a little at race pace. Probably not too hard to get a race tune on either of them.
