BREAKING: The votes are in, and the Kona Stab has stabbed its way to victory (see what I did there) in our retro ride showdown! Thanks to everyone who dusted off their V-brakes, grease-stained memories, and questionable fashion choices to participate. We can't wait to see some OG bikes out on the trails again soon. Just don't forget to pack extra zip ties, because, well... you know.

Photo of the Day

If you tread lightly and remain patient, you may be fortunate enough to catch a glimpse of the elusive mountain biker in its natural habitat.

These remarkable creatures, clad in brightly colored plumage and protective shells, navigate the rugged terrain with unparalleled grace and agility.

Video of the Day

Possibly the greatest thing to grace your screen in 2025.

Less than 24 hours ago, SEEKING PERFECTION hit the internet straight from Emil’s ANYTIME movie segment.

If you haven’t watched it yet, stop pretending to work, clear your schedule, and give it five minutes. Your Friday will thank you.

Only have 10 seconds? Just watch 4:46.

Cool Products - The Rali Chain Mag

Say goodbye to the relentless clank-clank of your drivetrain with the Rali Chain Mag, a clever little device that’s here to hush your bike and keep your chain in check.

Using a powerful neodymium magnet and some rubberized magic, it grabs your chain when you’re coasting, reducing noise, vibration, and that pesky chain slap.

And if you hit a gnarly bump? The Chain Mag’s rubber fingers jump into action to dampen chain chaos like a pro.

The best part? It’s all zero-friction when pedaling—your chain pulls free as soon as you start cranking, so there’s no funny business slowing you down.

At just 66–88 grams, it’s lightweight, easy to install, and compatible with mountain, e-bike, and gravel rigs.

Bonus: it even protects your frame from unwanted chain bashing.

In short, the Rali Chain Mag is like a silent guardian for your drivetrain.

Chain slap? Never heard of her.

Note: This is an unpaid feature. We just think the product is cool.

Dream Rides ❤️

Mondraker and Dream Build just teamed up to create what might be the world's lightest hardtail MTB, and yep, it's absurdly cool.

The frame? A Mondraker Podium RR SL tipping the scales at a mere 775 grams (lighter than your favorite burrito). The whole build clocks in at just 7.88 kg, complete with carbon everything and enough bling to make weight weenies swoon.

While this bike probably costs more than your car, watching it get built is pure bike-porn magic. Would it survive your local rock garden? Who knows, but it’s fun to dream!

Trail (Crew) of the Day - Trailtech.at

We’re changing it up today. Rather than highlight a really cool trail, we decided to highlight some of the real heroes out there. The trail builders.

Trailtech.at is one of those legends turning dirt into art. Their crew went full send last fall building a new bike park in the Bayerische Wald, and spoiler alert: it looks absolutely unreal.

Big shoutout to Trailtech.at for making the dreamlines we love to ride. Keep crushing it!
