Fox Live Valve, a system which promises to control MTB suspension to suit the terrain, has been publicly in the pipeline for years. We first saw it on professional cross country and enduro racers’ bikes back in 2015. More recently, we’ve noticed a few test bikes with fixtures for the hitherto unavailable technology. Now, the cat’s out of the bag. Live Valve bikes are available to buy, and the system can be purchased aftermarket too. What’s more, we’ve been riding it for the last two months, and can tell you what it’s like to ride.

In the UK and many other places it’s trail and enduro bikes that make up the bread and butter of the mountain bike market. These machines can get to the top of the hill without too much effort, and can absolutely shred on the way back down.

Yeti came out swinging for 2019 with a completely new bike in 2019, the SB150. The SB150 is a long travel 29er and is intended to replace the ever so popular SB5.5, Yeti’s first installment of a long-travel 29er. Not only that, but much of the other lineup received a refresh as well. Yeti has been long known for crafting some of the best bikes on the planet. Their new lineup is no different. For 2019 you will see that Yeti is still offering the SB6 and SB5 with a few adjustments and upgrades from last year. If you haven’t had the pleasure of riding a Yeti then you might be confused about why people are so in love with them. Hopefully, this video clears that up. Enjoy!
