PNW Components Loam Dropper Post

$199.00

Sure, if you want to buy a truly top-of-the-line dropper post, the $800 RockShox Reverb AXS is always an option. PNW’s idea of top-of-the-line is decidedly more accessible, yet it still offers great features like tool-free adjustable travel and variable return speed. This reliable post is available in three different diameters and in multiple travel lengths to fit nearly any frame. Instead of spending $800 on a single dropper post, consider buying one Loam for yourself — and three more for friends — for the same amount of cash.

Fox 38 Fork

$1,199.00

Who needs a stiffer fork than the venerated Fox Float 36? Anyone left raising their hand is in luck, as the new Float 38 has larger stanchions and a thicker, ovalized steerer tube to accommodate larger and harder-hitting riders or the added mass of e-bikes. The burlier fork shares all of the updates that the 2021 Float 36 model received, including a redesigned axle retention system, oil channels to keep the wiper seals lubed, and air ports on the lowers to equalize pressure after long ascents.

The component selection on every model shows that Rocky Mountain designed the new Altitude to get rowdy.

TRP says “no expense [was] spared creating this brake [so] every rider can now stop with world cup winning performance,” and after running these brakes for nearly a full year, they’re still amazing.
