You’re missing 8 speed and square taper…

Funnily enough, I think Ive got all of those things across my 4 bikes… Some with more than others! And they all have “tyre inserts”…

Giant disc brakes, using the rims of the wheels as the braking surface, cables to operate. Easy to service, easy to maintain whilst bike packing and adventuring, no nasty fluid exchange issues, universal pad sizes too. Mega discs? Available in all wheel sizes too…

I’ll be happy to see an affordable XT drivetrain in stock anywhere. That’d be nice.

I’m looking forward to some emtb products. Maybe a motorised seatpost that can lift you back into place, it’s way too much effort having to stand up before raising the seatpost. Also an ebike girdle to prevent embarrassing spill over / middle age muffin topping.

Did they sell you a load of spare capital letters to use up in your headline.

Please stop using title case. It’s wrong.
