The Tuesday Test - UPDATED - Singletrack World Magazine

Here’s a quick Tuesday afternoon brain teaser for you: what is this?

First correct answer in the comments wins the right to be smug for the rest of the day. Cleverest/most amusing answer wins something nice off Chipps’ desk 🙂

UPDATE – It is, of course, Yeti’s Switch Infinity link!

We’re really looking forward to getting one of the SB series Yetis into the office soon and seeing how the system performs on our local trails – although Soulwood’s suggestion might come a close second 😉

“Wooden bearings. Swell up in winter making your bike a more efficient hardtail, shrink in summer to allow movement on fast dry swoopy trails.”

Soulwood, you win something nice off Chipps’ desk! Get in touch at editorial@singletrackworld.com

No idea, but the bearing spacer has fallen out of place! 😉

Something else to need replacing after a winter of Calderdale’s delightful weather methinks.

Coffee tamper from the new office espresso machine – for a smooth brew?

No time at all to get the correct answer – well done edd, you get to be smug for what remains of Tuesday.

We will pick our favourite clever/amusing answer over Wednesday morning coffee – so far no sides have been split… 😉

Its the black hole harnessed at the centre of fox’s new suspension which cause all riders to look extra epic/enduro/gnar by distorting space time to make them look like they’re in slow-mo in real life

Can’t help thinking that, given a good clean up, this looks like Chipps’ latest contraption for drawing the flavour out of a good Laphroaig. Lovely peaty (Peaty?) notes with a lingering Kashima vapour on the palette…
