New gear, tested hard at Angel Fire Bike Park: SRAM Maven brakes, Shimano Saint pedals, Continental Kryptotal tires, RockShox Lyrik Ultimate Charger 3.2 and Wolf Tooth Locked In bar ends. Some impressed, some frustrated, and one pair of brakes almost ran Dane into another rider. Here's what worked, what didn't, and what you can tune to fix it.

Dane brings the bike shop side of things: why a new Lyrik takes more tinkering to dial in, why tire pressure depends on the tire and not a magic number, and why his shop is still trying to figure out what's going on with Maven brakes. Josh brings the rider side, including arm pump, foot position and riding sweep at the back of the pack. There's also a look at enduro vs. downhill bikes at the park, a bolt-check PSA, and the case for riding chainless when your derailleur breaks.
