Today, being in the conversation means being connected to the now. it means always listening, always responding, and always knowing where to be and how to get there. it means reacting to change and inspiring progress.
our conversation is in 30 different languages, spans across four continents and involves hundreds of people, sharing a common passion. it’s a conversation about four brands, and the most exciting bicycle components in the world. it starts on the web, goes into printed magazines and is alive all over the world. it’s shared with tweets and likes. it’s the post ride beer at the local trails or the toast after winning the World Championships.

“ [The TRuvATiv BooBar is a] perfect, sweet and standard, uncut bar–faultless!”

“ Rockshox vivid Air is proven, reliable, and offers enough external adjustment possibilities, even for challenging riders.”

“ super stiff fork, though very light… Top price-value relation. Buying tip!”
Mountain Bike
“ The lowest weight of all tested 29 inch forks results in a minor loose of stiffness. sid reacts very sensitive at small bumps and uses the complete travel on big hits. Test winner!”

“ The Reverb is the most refined and consistent-actuating seatpost of any i’ve used. The Reverb is a contender for top spot on any dropper post podium.”

“ Result: good and cheap! The sektor is longterm reliable. Adjust once, ride, and forget about it, this is the devise.”

“ Quick-release only, but consistently controlled and legendarily reliable lightweight mid-range trail fork.”
Bike Radar
“ it’s race light, but controlled and predictable enough for technical trail use. even the quick-release option steers okay thanks to the power bulged lowers, and there’s no distracting braking flutter even with big rotors.”

“ Lightweight and well priced with excellent feedback and feel for technical trail use.”

“ Avid’s elixir series brakes have always had great potential but reliability was often appalling. new o-ring seals, bladder design and an air trap seem to have solved these issues, with all new-generation brakes proving totally reliable in the six months we’ve been using them. Limited adjustability and noticeable flex, but great modulation and super-light weight.”

“ At 123g the TRuvATiv stylo is seriously light for a stem pitched at applications beyond cross-country racing. it’s an impressive bit of manufacturing, with lots of subtle hollowing and pocketing to shave out superfluous metal.”

“ The top-end T40 post, as tested, comes with titanium bolts over the steel found on the little brother T30. Both noir T30 and T40 share the same filament wound and unidirectional carbon construction, the strength and comfort of which we can attest to.”
Bike Radar
“ At 205g for a 700mm bar the noir is impressively light. The shape follows what seem to have become almost industry-standard numbers – it’s a popular formula because it works. despite its low weight the noir doesn’t mind being hauled on and you get a bit of carbon buzz-eating magic into the bargain.”
