Isn't that what this entire review was about? Looks like a sweet bike. The more I read about the new Treks, the more I want them. Looking forward to the Session 88 full review

I am getting soooo much deja vu here...

I commute on a old road bike... Tyler's just special like that

Haha, it's all good. At least we caught it!

Nope, but it confuses me why people think that this doesn't add to the conversation when "ssik goggz" or "POD" does

I'm so tired of the stupid commenters on this site. Any time I say something stupid/pointless purely for jokes, I get +10923 props. Every time I state a valid complaint/fact, I get -12938 props.

Looks like something I'd break. I wish the attachment points were more beefy, or like made of aluminum/aluminium or something that wouldn't break so easy. I'm thinking on a cold day, those would get dangerously brittle.

No, it's a Bengal. I've never ridden either... Bengal Brakes, fellas, not Hayes.

Aren't you sponsored?

If everyone thought like you, we'd all still be on road bikes, or hell, why not just walk? It gets you around just fine. Do some leg exercises if you can't walk fast enough.

There's actually a lot more power, I'm not even kidding. It's like Strokers Vs Hayes 9 almost...

This is change you can believe in. Juicies aren't change, that's just more of the same. If purchased, I promise to lower initial power, and provide power boosts to the middle stroke. Independent reservoirs are an artifact of the past eight years of failed modulation and poor lever feel. With my new taper bore technology, I resolve to rid our bikes of all vestiges of the previous regime of independent reservoirs. I'm Avid Elixir, and I approve this message.

Everyone's saying it but I have yet to see any solid proof

Agreed. I'd also like to see some more stuff about the E-13 Staccato.

I'm not quite sure what to say about this...

And you chose to buy them, I could go to the mall and buy $300+ jeans if I wanted, but I don't. I bet you there's somewhere in your town that sells 20 euro jeans

Lol, I'm aware that most chic people spend at least $120 on their jeans, I'm saying that if I ever do, someone needs to shoot me. Frankly, I can't tell the difference between my Levi's from Ross (last year's style for $15-$20) and their new Levi's for $60, or their 1969's and Lucky whatnot for a good clip more.

"As long as we say we didn't take this picture"

Words to live by, right there

You need to get an english tutor... It took me all of 10 minutes, I happen to have a pretty masterful understanding of the english language, unlike you

If you're putting a picture in a magazine, you can't watermark it or else it looks tacky...

@Wellsy, thanks for the correction and companies spend a LOT on R&D (engineers, designers, CNC operators, not to mention teams that they have to support in order to test the products), I wouldn't be surprised
@CJL1: AssBeef, really? Is that the best you could come up with? And also, opinion noted, and I withdraw my accusations

You're saying that VPP is LESS efficient than single pivot? The technology that Santa Cruz and Intense spent millions on developing is inferior to the free to use single pivot? The technology designed to IMPROVE pedaling performance will make it worse? Think before you open your mouth

doesn't exist... Saint uses oversize centerlock, unless they got rid of that too, which would make me happy
