Week 23

Short and sweet this week. Real world demands have wreaked havoc on my days…

TBH Content

Dan started us off this week with a review of the Magura Marta SLs, followed by Guitar Ted’s opinion piece on the recent round of 29″ - 26″ comparisons. Adrian added an interesting writeup that looks at balance and offers a couple suggestions that should help you out.

Elsewhere around the ‘net

NSMB.com has a two-part look at SRAM’s 2007 lineuup, starting with ‘07 Rock Shox freeride forks. That writeup is followed by a closeup at the new Avid Code disc brakes and some new cranks from Truvativ and derailleurs by SRAM. Pics of the Intense Socom have been floating around the ‘net for a while, but MBA has a good shot and some basic spec info for you to drool over. Some photos of newer-looking Kona bikes surfaced on the NSMB forum but I’m not sure they’re full-on 2007s. Niner Bikes updates their website with information about the soon-to-be-ready R.I.P. 9.

Don’t forget that Price Point’s Sette giveaway is still open for entries — feel free to add your name to the list for a chance at some decent gear.
