It’s just as much a left-wing echo chamber as Truth Social is a right-wing one - and that’s a problem in both cases. Some might say it’s fine because we’re on the right side of history and they’re not, or something along those lines - but the people on Truth Social think the exact same thing. No one’s views ever change that way.

I mentioned this to chatGPT earlier, and it correctly guessed the exact location where the frame cracked, so I assume it’s simply a high-stress zone. Makes sense though - when I’m sitting down and bouncing over heavy rocks and roots, that’s the part of the frame that takes the brunt of the force, preventing the rear triangle from folding in.

I’m not the smallest guy, and I usually have a heavy backpack on, which surely doesn’t help either. That being said - the frame is rated for 120 kg, and I stay well below that, so it’s most likely a manufacturing defect.
