Dangerholm returns in creamy Ivory to show us the integrated future of mountain bikes with a sick custom Scott Genius ST….
as the future of all-mountain bikes. No visible cables, wires, or suspension. An upside-down fork and the return of chromed-out wheels. My only reservation is the likely extra weight of all that sand-colored creamy Ivory paint, when it could have been raw carbon. Oh Dangerholm, what has become of your weight weenie ways?Swedish bike tweaker Dangerholm’s latest custom MTB project is “his vision of how the mountain bike of the future might look”.
Of course, there will be more wireless electronic components, but I can only hope some of those bulky batteries might get hidden too. I think we also aren’t going to be able to avoid the one-piece cockpits that are trying to make separate bar & stems a thing of the past.A few welcome changes have become the modern norm. Long travel dropper seatposts. Lightweight 4-piston brakes. And an actually universal derailleur mounting standard.
At least we can all hope that the future of mountain bikes will see the return of more shiny silver wheels and spokes. Everything always in matte black on black is getting a bit stale, am I right?On an otherwise reasonable custom build… well, except for the lust-worthy Intend Hero upside-down fork and hard-to-get Trickstuff Piccola HD brakes! Dangerholm still manages to sneak some silly over-the-top upgrades in there, too.
