There are a few words and phrases that I feel do not belong in the MTB lexicon. The stuff that forums, marketing bullshitters and magazines like to perpetuate, but have really no place in our world.
What words piss you off so much that you wish you could laser them off MTB’s tattooed skin?
1) Justify, Justified, Justification: As if anything we do is justifiable, and who cares. Nobody needs an MTB of any type, it is all about want. I’m fine with want. Wasting your life trying to justify owning a middle of the road xc hardtail or a single speed ti fatbike, is as pointless as aruging with people on the internet.
2) Overbiked: Meaningless drivel where people get caught up defining a niche, just so that anyone caught not riding their minimal travel bike off a cliff into a field of sharpened steel stakes, during an earthquake, whilst wearing only their mothers skimpy négligée for protection, must be overbiked.
