    $$$$ In the tropics Thursday GTM ¥¥¥¥

    Yes, it is. But the IS in the lens and the way the AF motors (located in the lens, at least for Canon, but I guess also Sony and Nikon) work together with the camera body's AF commands and IBIS play a role. This is why 3rd party lenses often do not work as well. Most of the newer lenses also...

    Actually pretty cool that you can make old lenses' IS and AF work better together with newer cameras by just an update. Makes good glass even more of a good investment.

    :stupid: Why is nobody telling folks that the support for Ukraine is a big economy support program for western countries with the benefit that every tank/plan/ship the Ukrainians destroy, NATO does not have to in a future conflict with Russia when (not if) it comes?

    New Whip? New toys for the dependable steed?

    I am pretty sure that Scott asked their engineers to make a frame that buckoW cannot make a steel front triangle for. Just to stop him making them look bad because his frames are nicer than the original offerings. :D I sure hope that you accepted the challenge. :butcher:

    Previously Soon (then)

    I wish they would find another solution for this. Also other manufacturers are guilty of putting this large head tubes on slim looking ti frames. Solutions like the new system from Comumbus hopefully will change this in the future.

    Previously Soon (then)

    I was thinking more the diameter that looks off. The headtube is not tapered just because of the integration of the brake line, or? IMO Lynskey has solved that in a more aesthetically pleasing way.

    Good looking bike. Only thing that doesn't seem to fit is the enormous head tube.

    I would take a Conti Race King 2.0 before any Schwalbe crap.

    Random new bike thread

    I know, I was thinking something similar what Yeti did on the Lawwill bikes. So you don't need a long arm for the floater.

    Random new bike thread

    They would just need to attach the brake to the chainstays (depending on how the linkage looks like), no?

    You are criticizing WTB tires and then run Thunder Burts??? :rofl:

    whatever happened to...

    Weird, mine was butter smooth, nearly no stiction. Like all forks, it develops stiction after some time w/o service. "Digressive" sounds the same as my complain about not enough compression damping....
