    Are DSLR's Dead?

    for casual consumer shooters DSLRs are dead.. give it some more time and the superior non-DSLR alternatives will be known to the consumers... It would not surprise me to see the DSLR(mirror box) design to largely be gone in 5-7 years.... it will all become mirror-less

    Official "My name is..." "And I ride..."

    I am running On One Midge bars.. They are another "dirt dropper" type handlebar. Very similar to woodchippers. Not sure if Salsa makes different variations of woodchippers. The woodchipper bars on the cross check complete bikes have much less flare than the woodchipper on salsa fargos. The...
