Description

TAZA ForkWith the Taza fork, we wanted to introduce a completely re designed successor to our famous BPC fork. Alongside a complete aesthetic overhaul, we also updated the specs to match contemporary MTB geometries and componentry. The postmount brake capacity was increased to PM7 to allow for 180 220 mm rotors, while the axle to crown was increased to 510 mm to better suit the general trend in growth of suspension fork travel. But beauty is not just skin

With the Taza fork, we wanted to introduce a completely re-designed successor to our famous BPC fork.

Alongside a complete aesthetic overhaul, we also updated the specs to match contemporary MTB geometries and componentry. The postmount brake capacity was increased to PM7 to allow for 180 - 220 mm rotors, while the axle-to-crown was increased to 510 mm to better suit the general trend in growth of suspension fork travel.
But beauty is not just skin deep, and by using the same embedded mount technology as seen in our MGV fork, it can carry a heavier luggage load than our previous BPC fork. Add to that its fully guided internal dynamo cable routing and there you have the perfect fork for MTB / bikepacking rigs or wide-tired ultra-distance race builds.

During design, we recognised that many riders want the option to change between their setups. To make this process easier, we decided to opt for external brake hose routing - no more having the to re-bleed the front brake after switching forks. TAZA also sets itself apart from other utility, suspension-corrected carbon forks on the market. The boss in the fork crown is rated to platform rack use, not just light mounting, and the axle to crown measurement is more dialed in to work better with bikes designed for longer travel suspension forks. Under the surface, the TAZA is truly a unique piece of equipment.

The TAZA fork featured in a review with the guys at Bikepacking.com, where they gave us an in-depth analysis after 1000 miles of rough use. They showed us that the TAZA was well suited to long days of loaded up riding, performing well at tapping out the miles on rough terrain with more gear. They also pointed out the fork's responsive handling when riding more technical terrain with less equipment.

"Seido Taza is a solid performer. It offers a balance of cargo capacity, thoughtful mounting options, and ride stability that makes it a great companion for everything from weekend trips to longer tours"

NOTE: The maximum cage mount load refers to the dynamic load that the mounts are exposed to. Forks with mounted cages must be treated with great care. Leaning the bike with the cage against a wall or onto the ground, or hitting obstacles with the cage will result in a dynamic load that exceeds the maximum load by far. Installed cages need to touch the fork blade surface within a radius of 5 mm around the center of the mounting bolt. Some cages might need to use washers between cage and fork blade.

Superb Guide in All Respects
Format: Paperback
An invaluable reference for anybody interested in section hiking the trail. I especially appreciate the coverage of water and campsites. It’s also a fun and beautiful read for any armchair adventurer. Salabert did an amazing job bringing together well-written text, data, maps, and beautiful photos to create a comprehensive guidebook. Deserves to do very well.

Truly embracing life along the Camino de Santiago
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
The Way of the Wind: Embracing Life While Walking the Camino do Santiago, by John W. Pearson, 2021, recounts one man’s experiences while walking the Camino de Santiago, a thirty-five day, five hundred mile walking journey from St. Jean Pied de Port in France to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. The journey follows a path tread by literally millions of pilgrims, or “pelegrinos”, as they seek to find something very person in the experience. The book is a travelogue recounting the miles of the daily trek, the people, stories, dining, lodging, and local services encountered along the way. There are a series of black and white photographs accenting the dialogue which give the reader a sense of involvement in the story. A nice touch was a simple map at the beginning to orient the reader along each day’s travel. I absolutely loved this book. It was enjoyable to read and I found myself slowing down near the end of the book to better savor the details. It warrants a double read to go back and let those early experiences soak in a bit more. I found the book to be educational, as I learned a lot about the historical significance of the route of the Camino, as well as specific landmarks along the way, such as a 10th century Roman bridge dwarfed by a new modern bridge overhead. I imagined myself walking along that ancient roadway, imagining what a pilgrim in 1300 must have thought. The dialogue is playful, recount with hours of walking, lively dinners, and crowded “albergues” (think camp dorm rooms with bunk beds). All was not rosy along the Camino. The narrative relates the aches of sore feet, legs, backs; the challenges of securing lodging and laundry; meanings lost in translation; inclement weather and treacherous roadways. Often mentioned are markers to honor the fallen dead along the Camino. About 2/3rds through the book, John recants his very personal reason for going on the pilgrimage, which he describes as “The Whale in the Room”, referring to the motivation of Captain Ahab in Moby Dick. His honesty and vulnerability bring the entire journey into focus. He brings the reader to the Cruz de Ferro, where pilgrims have stopped for millennium with their deepest meanings. I have known John Pearson since 1975, when we met in High School in El Paso, Texas. However, through the years, I moved and we lost close touch. There were many parts of this book of which I did not know the details. John’s story is very powerful, and will impact the reader deeply. Once you have read the book, you will have a clear idea of the experience, and can judge for yourself if the Camino de Santiago is calling you. For me, I found the book asking me not “WILL you go?”, but “WHEN will you go?”

A remarkable story, illuminating and real.
Format: Paperback
This book is a journey, the author’s journey and potentially the reader’s as well. A story that at once reveals the author’s walk of hundreds of miles, intertwined through steps of ancient history, beautiful and interesting places, and traversed by countless people who through the ages embarked on similar journeys of their own. There is a revealing honesty that comes through these pages allowing the reader to feel vicariously on a kind of journey of one’s own. With great admiration for this writer and for all those who have traversed so consummate a pilgrimage, I found myself searching my own soul, visualizing the vast and beautiful detailed descriptions, enjoying the frequent humor and occasional hilarity, at times laughing out loud, feeling deeply moved, filled with questions and ideas about the ways we all find ourselves traveling our lives. The people, fellow pilgrims the writer meets along the way, the experiences they share on their subjective journeys, are honored by this author as are the lives of those who came before them over the centuries. It is a book filled with surprises, joy, pain, beauty. An absolutely awesome experience to read.

Good book …but some comments….
Format: Paperback
I too, have to agree with another reviewer giving four stars. I also noticed his comments on beautiful women and wondered how “Leslie” at home felt about it as well. And the wine he mentions far outweighed any reference at all to the necessary need for water on such a walk. Comments in the last few chapters on walkers who only walked the last few miles seemed a bit snarky. But he made me laugh out loud several times and I found it to be an enjoyable, entertaining read. I can only hope Leslie, at home, felt the same ! Having read many books on the Camino, this was a good read. His tragic experience earlier in life makes me give him a hug and big thumbs up for finding meaning in life and going for it. Thanks, John.
