I think you showed the only Mountain bikes that were there...... very road oriented show and quite disappointing if i am honest.

i can't work out what the big black cylindrical thing is behind the seat tube. any ideas?

no, they don't

Moto GP bikes have used quick release hydraulic lines for their brakes for years now. great idea, can't wait for them to be readily available!

be good for them to replace the High Roller, personally i find them SHITE, but thats just my opinion.

so over 12 years, only 107 people were identified as having spinal injuries directly related to Mtb-ing. hardly a lot is it? its a study saying "Yep, you can get injured whilst doing this sport" big wow. we know that. we all know there is a risk, thats why its a buzz. just enjoy it.
