I'd love to see small, light, highly-functional, easy shifting BB based gearboxes (a la pinion), at a price that everyone can afford and we finally get rid of external mechs/cogs.
I am getting really hacked off with external gears and mud/leaf related issues.

They look very interesting! Make sure you give us some feedback on them. Where they easy to source?
29+ winter or mud tyres that don't weigh over a kg each or have sidewalls made of tissue paper

I'd like the reverse please so us long legged people can use droppers without having lots of exposed post....and while we are at it longer head tubes...
Far too many frames with short seat tubes these days 🙂
As above, anything less than a 500mm seat tube is more or less useless as far as I'm concerned, and I'm only 6'2".

I'm not joking.

The last few years Seatmast Mania was always ridiculous, now it's obviously ridiculous... But I ride a size large bike despite having size medium legs and there's still generous room for a 170mm Reverb.
So on that subject, I want more, longer seatposts. KS have a 175mm on the way which also looks to be pretty light, in theory 9Point8 have a 200mm but in practice it seems like the entire production line is committed to keeping the 20 people who've bought one in warranty replacements, the Moveloc's out of production...

I'll be wanting something beefier than a Ranger, but it looks like Maxxis will have me covered by April 😀

Oh dear. Hadn't heard about this, and it seemed so promising.

Shall we just swap bikes?
135mm hub dynamo that is wide enough at the flanges to make the most of the width, (and not have to build a 'skinny' 135mm front wheel).

You want the medium with 440mm seat tube or the large at 482mm? 😀
I would like a 28.25" wheel size as the best balance between the faster handling playfulness of 650b and the better rolling qualities of a full 29r.
It will make the trails come even more alive. 😉
If any of the major bike manufacturers marketing departments are reading this...IT IS A DELIBERATE AND MEDIOCRE ATTEMPT AT HUMOUR NOT NEXT YEAR'S BIG THING.
