Truvativ has brought its Stylo line to the forefront by giving the line OCT technology. The result is a lighter and stiffer crankset, and variations are being offered to cater to the XC and all-mountain crowds.

This heavily modified product of Sebastian Roth's hard work has resulted in a bike weighing an incredible 13.52 lbs. What started life as a Scott Scale has ended up as one of the lightest mountain bikes ever built.

Avid showed off their new Elixir brakes at Sea Otter. The Elixir boats more power and better modulation than the Juicy line, while managing to shed some weight at the same time.

The Red Bull Rampage will be resurrected from the freeriding history books this October. The idea of good old fashioned Utah hucking mixed with fresh riders and styles has us drooling in anticipation.

The rumored new version of the Ellsworth Moment has arrived, and it's a looker. Lighter weight and other refinements mean that the new Moment won't be all show, either.

Trek has finally launched the Session 88 in two sweet variations: the freeride oriented Session 88 FR and the downhill race-ready Session 88 DH. Some clever suspension design should make this new long-travel rig a real contender.

Shimano has got around to a full refresh of the Saint line for 2009. Weight is down, and both stiffness and strength are up. The badass new look doesn't hurt matters either.

If you’re anything like me, an absurd percentage of your clothes are bike related. With that in mind, it’s still good news when somebody else jumps into the ring making clothes for riders, on or off the bike. Division26 is the latest company to join the party, and with Eric Carter backing the effort, expectations are high. [...]

You know it’s a good week when you start out with a glut of free bike porn videos. Sunday we showed you that New World Disorder 7 had found its way onto Google Video, and now for the rest of the week we have Free Delivery. If you remember from a few weeks ago, we brought [...]

A nice flashback to the 2006 riding scene, NWD7 has held up to the test of time surprisingly well. The riding is great, and the filming shows why the NWD series is still going strong. If you feel guilty about enjoying such a fine piece of bike video for free, then this would be the perfect [...]
Some great footage of Cam McCaul sessioning the Hood River gap while filming for NWD 9.
A nice flashback to the 2006 riding scene, NWD7 has held up to the test of time surprisingly well. The riding is great, and the filming shows why the NWD series is still going strong. If you feel guilty about enjoying such a fine piece of bike video for free, then this would be the perfect occasion to grab yourself a Box of Disorder for more classic freeride goodness.
Have you been feeling that your bike is just too comfortable and efficient lately? Do you hate the mobility, simplicity, and ease of modern bikes? Well, Gizmodo has dug up the solution. There’s not much to be said other than watch the video, and then go and hug one of your, ahem, ‘real’ bikes.
This video features some great segments of dirt jumping, urban assault, and of course the ubiquitous BC singletrack with dog in tow. If nothing else, it’s worth watching just to see Carl Buchanan refuse to stop his session after breaking his handlebars in half. Carl’s street and park segment is definitely the standout of the video, and there’s little doubt that we’ll be seeing more from him in the future.
The Transition crew set out to highlight their riders who manage to hold down a full-time job, while at the same time riding at a level high enough to earn a spot on a factory team. The fact that these riders have the same amount of riding time as the rest of us, but are able to throw down with the best riders out there, is a testament to their skill and dedication.
Bang Bang tags along with two big-name freeriders, Aaron Chase and Cam McCaul, as they compete in the Qashqai Urban Challenge. The full video isn’t without its ups and downs, as it includes Chase’s season-ending injury from crashing hard off of a ladder bridge and compressing his vertebrae.
