The description refers to a repair kit that also includes seals, so why is mineral Maven being replaced here along with the brakes on DOT?

Or am I misunderstanding something?

It's just the service launch page, DOT and mineral brakes are in there.

Can you confirm the last part about the Specialized Enduro? Everything I’ve heard says there isn’t a replacement in the near term. Stumpy is getting an update mid year, but the industry people I’ve spoken to haven’t heard anything about the enduro replacement.

Also, there was an article on that other site about their patent for a new 170 mm bike…

By insiders I mean people I know personally. 
I’ve been told there is a new stumpy a few months away, but those same people are unaware of any new Enduro coming. 
Have you heard specifically there is a new Enduro ready to drop but they are holding off to wait for old stock to die down? 
They did this with the Levo, and had stock sitting in warehouses for months before releasing it, but it was hardly a secret. 

With how many tweaks the big S does to the Stumpy I would be surprised if they *don't* always have a new one on the way.

 

New Enduro is waiting to clear stock for sure. You can only assume they don't want to end up in the mess Trek is in selling current gen and previous gen side by side.

From the other site. In the video they keep referring to “the good brakes” on Kaz’s bike BF30AD73-7D0F-42E2-922F-314965165758

Just in case the Dreadnought post disappears again, taking all quotes with it, I love the colourway "Fatty T". Great beer! Again, I hope they have a "Sh***y Kitty" colour as well.

Sorry, my bad - was under the impression the Cura 4 utilizes 17mm pistons. Smile

Any further news on turbo levo ( gen4).  Seems like its stock sell out time.  Local reliable people don’t seem to have news o. Dates

Anyone have more news on the updated Altitude? When is it dropping, roughly?

IMG 5956You mean this? Think it’s still only this - looks to me awfully close in design to the Crestline non-ebike. Smile

I saw a very finished looking carbon bike with a paint job I didn’t recognize in one of Remi’s stories. Also think it will have headset cups like the stumpy evo.

YT?  Only reason I'd say that is the chodey water bottle.  Don't some of their frames require specific water bottles?

IDK? Thats the current 11.6 which would be weird for him to put on an old frame.  That lower pivot is super low and far back, not a normal location.

I think it’s been well assumed already, but the upcoming Yosimura pedals that Dak raced in Columbia look very much like they use SPD-
