The Yakima racks (at least my hold-up does) has this feature in it. Also, you can put a lock on it rather than just a cotter-pin.

I'll keep this short because there's so many fanboys on here of the other brands. Bontrager stuff IS JUST AS GOOD as the boutique stuff. An example are their carbon rims. The Aeolus rims are the real deal. There are a lot of things Trek doesn't publish about the validation testing the rims go through before they are approved for production. They publish all the jazz regarding wind tunnel data but that's just the tip of the iceberg on how well these rims are designed and built. All of you people type opinions without ever riding any of the stuff you're voicing about. In turn, it makes your posts useless and actually hurts the community with baseless rants. I'm not a Trek or Bontrager fan either, but it's from an opinion of riding their stuff, not baseless online speculation.

About time you see somebody shredding trails on a hardtail. More specifically, on the same HT they're DJin with. Win.

You are such an idiot. I guess criticism should only be made by those who produce high end vids. So, in that regard, every comment you've made on things is moot. Douchebag.

That still doesn't mean anything. When was the last time you saved up a ton of money for a bike, rode on it, and went "well, this bike totally blows." It doesn't happen. It's the nature of buying something you worked hard for and enjoying it. My P3 rode like a truck but I was still stoked and loved it when I bought it. Looking back, that bike sucked ass. A fair shake or REAL feedback would be somebody testing it for a couple weeks and then giving feedback in comparison to what they have ridden. They have nothing invested in it so they won't have any bias.

That geometry statement doesn't mean shit since Mike Montgomery can probably ride on a Huffy and kill it. People get so concerned with geometry that pros ride rather than geometry that works for THEM...

Morpheus Deliri. It's from the latin base of crazy Morpheus Dementia

That geometry looks like it will ride like shit

It's funny how all the people commenting aren't trials riders (not to mention noobs to the sport of cycling, let alone trials) and saying this "rope riding" is revolutionary....Ryan Leech rode on a wire years ago, as he also rode on train tracks doing blind 180's, etc. All of this stuff is fairly old news, and the guys who were spot on got all the negs. The riding is and video are pretty good, but there's nothing really new, other than the fact the riding is MASSIVE. This post isn't meant to take away from his video or riding at all, but a lot of you kids really need to watch some older OG vids to really know where his riding is coming from; most of you have no effin clue wtf you're talking about.
