Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 but its still a bit fishy. This launch is so soft is reminds me more of a graphics card launch than anything else. Any softer and it might as well be vapourwareIndeed. I think I've seen them at EVO... Yep. Evo carrying it, but only in 29er... http://www.evobikes.co.za/schwalbe-procore-29-set.html
Capricorn Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Indeed. I think I've seen them at EVO... Yep. Evo carrying it, but only in 29er... http://www.evobikes.co.za/schwalbe-procore-29-set.html did ask about the more relevant (IMO) sizes, but no firm ETA. even overseas its rare as hen's teeth. I thought olympic got some in. maybe someone from that clique is running it?

Pure Savage Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Maybe... But yeah, the lack of proper coverage on media is confounding... Maybe the people that were going to buy procore bought the new XT 11 speed upgrade instead as its the same price and makes your bike lighter, not heavier. NicoBoshoff 1

Bro, don't you know the heavier and more tanklike the bike the more #enduro it is... Next season will see the re-emergence of permatubes and 1m handlebars. Odinson 1

NicoBoshoff Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 To be truly ###### one must ride the following: - a bike with an impractically slack headangle, because gravity; - the widest possible tyres regardless of one's cornering ability, because grip; - the widest possible rims, because its very enduro to talk about tyre pressures; - more travel than you will realistically ever require on your local trails; - a backpack with literally all your wordly possessions crammed in there (except a shock pump, because some guy in the US ended himself that way); - brake rotors so large they could stop Casper de Vries' swearing, because speed; - handlebars as wide as your arms can possibly reach, because "leverage"; - as short a stem as possible regardless of rider geometry, because "see handlebars for reference"; - flat pedals, because Sam Hill; - a dropper post, because well f*ck those things actually do make life worth living. Am I doing it right? LazyTrailRider, Pure Savage, MK Killer and 1 other 4

LazyTrailRider Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Nico, you forgot about the obligatory clip-on full-face. It's really unsafe to ride any trails without a #full-face. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1
