Iwan Kemp Posted September 9, 2016 Share Quite often we see videos or images of yet to be announced new bikes or gear. Some are "leaks" while others are teasers. Lets post what we find in here to debate and wonder out loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

splat Posted September 9, 2016 Share Wasn't there a Momsen trail bike in the making not too long ago?It seemed to be an answer to Pygas's Oneten29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odinson Posted September 9, 2016 Share Let's start off with this one from Morewood Bikes posted on their Facebook page yesterday Fuckin' yawn. These guys were all "vuur en vlam" about Eurobike and presenting new bikes, but that never materialised. More-or-less-deadwood have been teasing new bikes for months now and there hasn't been anything concrete yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

popcorn_skollie Posted September 16, 2016 Share The SEbikes OM-duro. BMX meets enduro.http://www.sebikes.com/images/products/2017/om-duro-275/high/2017_SE_SIDE_3_OM-DURO_275_BLUESPARKLE.jpgIn celebration of the life and times of SE's founder, Scot Breithaupt, along with SE's motto of "BMX Innovations", a brand new bike has been created like you've never seen before. The all-new OM-Duro takes the design cues and aesthetics from the legendary OM Flyer and mixes in some radical enduro upgrades. This wildly unique bike comes in two sizes and features 27.5+ wheels, disc brakes front and rear, internal cable routing for a dropper seatpost, a SRAM GX 1x10 trigger shifter featuring a clutch derailleur, and a 10-speed cassette. BMX meets enduro; there are no boundaries. Available in 2 sizes. https://youtu.be/l-aNsT6ZzEE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matchstix Posted September 17, 2016 Share I prefer shocks on the front of the bike only. But more diagonal from vertical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted October 7, 2016 Share Looks like Norco have a new DH bike in the pipeline http://ep1.pinkbike.org/p5pb14016547/p5pb14016547.jpghttp://www.pinkbike.com/news/norco-prototype-dh-bike-first-look.html Is This Blenkinsop's New DH Bike?Norco's Sam Blenkinsop was recently spotted in the Whistler Bike Park aboard what looks to be a brand new downhill bike from the Canadian company that's a drastic departure from their long-standing Aurum DH rig. And while merely seeing Blenkinsop on the bike doesn't mean that we're looking at the Aurum's replacement, the fact that the front triangle, and apparently the rear as well, is made using carbon fiber says that Norco is relatively committed to the design you see here. What's new? Everything, it seems, as it's obvious even in these grainy cellphone photos that this bike represents a wholesale change from the Aurum and its 'A.R.T.' Horst Link suspension layout that delivers 200mm of travel. The prototype's single pivot, linkage-activated design features an extremely high main pivot that sits well above the height of Sam's chainring, and an integrated pulley / chain guide setup routes the chain up high to run around the main pivot. The bike would have a large amount of chain growth / pedal kickback / anti-squat if the chain weren't routed in this way. Remember when Sam was running a very non-production high idler pulley setup on his Aurum, pictured to the right, earlier this year? http://ep1.pinkbike.org/p5pb13053104/p5pb13053104.jpghttp://es.pinkbike.org/245/sprt/i/pb-small.png Blenkinsop was running a modified Aurum at the New Zealand Nationals last January. Note the idler pulley that routes the chain high above the main pivot. When questioned about that back in January, Owen Pemberton, Norco's Senior Design Engineer, had this to say: ''What you are looking at is just a part of our ongoing Norco Race Development program. That setup on Sam's bike is purely an information gathering exercise at this time.'' Information gathering for this new design, apparently.If you think that the basic layout looks a bit like a carbon fiber version of Commencal's Supreme DH V4downhill machine, you wouldn't be wrong. The high pivot is in a similar (but not the same) location, and the integrated idler pulley setup on the swingarm is also somewhat comparable. Small differences in pivot locations can create drastically varying performance characteristics, however, and the prototype Norco's linkage system is distinctly different to the Supreme DH V4's that compresses its shock from below. This is reversed on the Norco, with its pull-link activating a rocker that compresses the bike's shock from above. The linkage, which is unrefined and clearly far from being set in stone, is very different from the V4, despite the bike appearing to be similar from afar.

The combination of a bar-mounted remote and decoupling hub allows you to disconnect and re-engage your drivetrain when you want. That means no forces pushing on your pedals or interfering with your suspension when tackling the rowdiest terain. Unleash the full potential of your chassis."
