We have seen a lot of changes in the mountain bike industry over the past year or two with the introduction of new standards in components and frames. Technology seems to moving forward at a rapid pace as companies within the mountain bike industry are all looking for the next new and exciting gear that is going to light the world on fire and bring in new sales.
Just recently, we have seen several new parts hit the board that are unlike anything in recent memory.
- The wide adoption of thru axle suspension forks on everything from XC to AM (new 15mm TA standard now also adopted by RockShox).
- Sub 30 pound 6.4″ travel all mountain rigs.
- 10 speed component groups from Shimano and SRAM (recently announced X7 and XT is 10 speed for 2011).
As we move forward into 2011 product lines and beyond, where do you think the industry is headed? Select your choice and let us know what you think in the comments section below.
