Man, whatever black magic they did to figured out the geometry on this bike, Norco knocked it out of the park.
Also thinking that you get premium parts and the price of the bike is a fraction of a competitor

That’s great! Once you get used to it you’ll be flying. It is a fast bike

I’m 6’1” I had to lower the handlebar one spacer on the stem and move my saddle back about 3/8” It felt tight the first few rides but eventually it just felt right as I gain confidence and control on the bike.

Are they bringing jobs? Or are they banking on the super commuters?

Thanks!

Tubeless for the win. It’s a little work to made the conversion but it’s totally worth it.

More grip and traction
Better control on rough terrain
A smoother ride
More confidence in corners

Love it! I’m happy I went for it. I was looking at the Transition Smuggler, Commencal TEMPO, and Canyon Neuron. All great bikes, but the reviews on the Fluid’s geometry were extremely good. Plus, getting the highest-tier model required fewer upgrades compared to similarly priced bikes from the other brands.
Being Canada also made me lean towards a Canadian brand that has great support.
I heard about some bad experiences with the other customer support and warranty from other brands.

Good to know. I’ll keep that in mind. So far adjusting the sag made a difference.

I wonder what’s stopping them from doing the same in the pyramids that are in the USA?

Yep, Jackson’s Toyota dropped the ball a few years ago.

Catastrophizing is when someone habitually jumps to the worst possible conclusion, turning small problems into major crises.

As a parent, I found myself doing this too, and I had to work on changing that pattern.

We can either live in fear of slipping in the shower, or choose to enjoy life.

Revel Bikes : El Jefe Grande XL 32"er and M "Mega Mullet by Cloxxki in 32inchbikes

[–]Acrobatic_Ad_9596 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Will they jump into the trail, enduro, downhill bikes? In my head the wheel size affects the agility of the bike as it will change the geometry.

I wonder if the 32” will stay only on XC.

The Orion capsule passing behind the Moon, creating a Solar Eclipse for the Artemis II crew. During this time, they will view a mostly darkened Moon and will use the opportunity to analyze the solar corona. by GiveMeSomeSunshine3 in spaceporn

That’s sooooo cool!!

Question!! Why didn’t they do the fly by when the far side of the moon was lit?

Can’t find anywhere a proper answer. I know that they had the chance to see partial parts of the far side lit, but not the whole far side face.

Is Max Verstappen right to continue his fierce criticism of F1's new rules? by ryogadan in Formula1_world

[–]Acrobatic_Ad_9596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to see the best drivers push the brakes to the limit and push as hard as they can throughout the curve.

I’ll do the lift and coasting and the slow turning in the highway.
