We don't know what our limits are, so to start something with the idea of being limited actually ends up limiting us.

I like bikes
Please report back on the "60 Second Eyelift". They'll be in booth #12275
'26+'?
Much as we need a new wheel standard like a hole in the head, and we've had this one before in a much heavier guise….part of me is actually wanting this OMG!11!! I want light, strong wheels that don't cost a fortune and have OK rolling characteristics. I don't want super skinny tire sidewalls that puncture every ride or wheels the size of Mars. So to that end 26+ could actually work.

wow you are a ass
Cam wandering the show floor in a Trump 2016 shirt.
That is brilliant! Must get one.
only the stuff they didnt already show @ eurobike. should fit in one article.

3rd the "odd stuff from the back corners of the show" suggestion.
Also softgoods!
Please cover anything you see on kids bikes and gear. A lot of us have kids and are keen to get them riding.
Please do not cover e bikes. I thinks it's crazy how Specialized makes one and people think it's OK but imagine if Kawasaki or Ducati made one. Rant over. Love that you asking for feedback.
Here are a few ideas:
1. Capture the soul of the Las Vegas trade show. Help it stick it's chest out like a care bear from the 80s and blast it's true colors…….a photo collection of hangover faces…
2. A mix of "I can't believe we're seeing this outside of the Taipei show"
3. A "that's been done before collection"
4. Some peeks at the little guys (Banshee, Knolly, Canfield, etc) that don't have the marketing bucks to get seen or the bucks to make a laser-light show to get media attention.
5. Coverage of laser-light shows.
when will the offroad version of this be on the market
A drunken rant…not filmed, written. Be sure to have the rant be regarding something quite random…yet still mountain bike related.
Now to get into a drunken mindset:drunk:… here are some ideas (be sure to read this while hearing the slurs);
- Why are handlebars so wide, they should go back to the good ol days when they were cut down to the length of your forearm
- There should be only two colors of bikes, black and white…none of this hunter-green, pylon-yellow, gouge your eyes out pink crap.
- Bikes should include pedals when they are bought - how do they expect you to try it out? Mountain bikers aren't picturing run-bikes for adults…wait a second - brilliant idea, run-bikes for adults. Bamn trademarked - now I'm going to license it to all these suckers.
- Boost may not be a horrible idea - Yeah I said it…now "Super-boost", that's just dumb
- could you design a tire that has suction cups on them? We could call it Mega-tacky.
- Instead of E-bikes being electric - we could design a little steam turbine heated by propane - and when its dark out, just open a bleed valve and you have a flame-thrower to guide you with light.
- Interview an Elvis impersonator about the new bike standards - better yet, interview a drunk impersonator about bike standards.
and to think I wrote this stone sober in my cubicle at work.

How about a Giant Coiler.
"Kona sues Giant over Coiler on showroom floor"
And no, I have NOT been drinking.
Wrong. Always.

At least we'll have 20"+ to look forward to.
There's nothing better than an Orangina after cheating death with Digger.
The amount of free shit the industry handed out at CWerx is mind boggling.
Those grey and red SRAM hats looked okay. Too bad I wasn't about to stand in line or look about in 30ËC+ heat for one.
Yeah whatever. I got a SRAM coffee mug last year. It broke for no reason. SRAM won't warranty it. Shenanigans.
Debate? Bikes are made for riding not pushing.
