I'd love it if there was a community for biking. I.e road/hybrid/mtb. I could go for a new set of SPD pedals and Campy shift/break levers.

I also back this idea! Would love to have a community for both bike parts (anything from handlebars to chains to saddles to tires) and whole bikes.

With a bike community, you could easily do crossover drops with Ultralight (for bikepacking), and it would have more engagement compared to pre-existing communities (i.e.- Auto, why have Auto but not Bike?).
Massdrop could easily compete with specialty retailers if it caters to niche groups too (like competing against DansComp for BMX or Pink Bike classifieds for urban MTB). This is also helped by the Massdrop community, which has historically supported hobbies with high cost of entry. I really thing a bike community would do well here.

100% back this, especially with the rise of e-bikes, and the BMX community, tons of potential money to be made as well as saving people a ton of cash on great products, for the bmx riders, some The Shadow Conspiracy parts would suite them well, or Odyssey.

Massdrop is missing out on a huge market here and it would be a perfect match. Cyclist are obsessed when it comes to their gear. It is a highly equipment/gear oriented sport. Cyclists will spend hundreds of dollars just to shave a few grams of weight from their bike, such as a lighter seat post, or other improvements such as areo gear and clothing. They are up there with audiophiles in chasing that completely elusive and unattainable perfection. Just do some research on You tube and you will see what I mean. A cyclist will be always on the lookout for gear for his/her road bike, off season they will be looking for the latest in off season clothing. The same cyclist will be searching for accessories for his mountain/trail bike, including latest cycling attire, or bicycle upgrades. Cyclist will go on treks and travel for days and camp outdoors on their multi day rides. The market is endless and continually evolving with the latest, the lightest, the strongest, the most efficient gear for the riding experience. A cyclist will customize and transform his/her bike with upgrades and truly make it their own. Massdrop would find an entire new obsessed and committed community that take in all types, genders, ages, ethnics, and there's a lot of them. Likewise, the cyclist would find a home here. As you can tell there is a lot of enthusiasm in this sport, especially when it comes to their bikes and gear.

I think one of the main issues is cycling community itself, is pretty diverse and there are so many branches .....I don't think could be realistic ask speci items that could fit the all community

I have a 2016 Intense Recluse basic build.
My first carbon bike, and my first 27.5 w/boost. I'm coming from a 2012 Yeti SB-66 with real nice Syntace wheels. I transferred my xtr brakes over but the rest is still low budget stock so I'll need some good deals on parts. I can't believe how much I like and miss carbon bars now that I'm using the house brand aluminum bars.

This has been coming up for a long time and while I've never seen anything to indicate that they are interested in starting a new community, I have been seeing bike related items showing up in drops periodically which is a good sign.
We must keep supporting those drops when they happen if they're ever going to start a community for them.

Yeah it would be great to have a bike (cycling) section. Some things that come to mind are good bike lights, comfy seats, better handlebars and pedals. Those are the things I replace on any new bike, typically.

Is Drop no longer finding deals on other types of items?
Has drop just narrowed focus on audiophile and keyboard things or is the site still open to things like EDC items, batteries, socks, hats, etc? Reason being: really would like to find a deal on some high end LED car headlight bulbs, as well as some injinji toe socks so I can buy those in bulk. I imagine other folks have other wants and needs as well.

I want to ‘save the planet’; helping me is easy, and starts with ‘reading this’.
Now that I have your attention: “Viagra” (only joking)… Hello, and, “thankyou”. Thankyou for your inquiry,.. your time,.. and (hopefully) your further contemplation…. This isn’t just some ‘environmental post’, and it will list a few things that I am going to do, in the short term, that we all want / need, so is probably worth reading even if you are not altruistically minded. So let me pitch three things, first and foremost. One I can deliver, one I will try to deliver, and one I am going to do anyway, and you might just ‘want to know about it’. The first one: I’d like to kickstart a multi-operating system GUI (graphical user interface) overlay, that simplifies using any tech device, and follows you (if you so wish) to other platforms, allowing seamlessly easy usability of all modern tech devices. big tricky sentence, basically saying I’m going to put a ‘manga character’ (or ‘multiple other’ mascots) that can be ‘swiped in’ from the edge of the screen that will help a user...

Why doesn't Drop have more EDC stuff?
I miss the days long ago when drop had knives, watches and other cool stuff besides keyboards and headphones.

Drop Keyboard Club Questions
Hello everyone! I'm looking to join DKC, but I have a few questions. The first day of November has already passed. Will I still get the coupon for November immediately after signing up today (Nov. 10)? What is the definition of Mechanical Keyboard products? Will the coupon apply to desk mats? I believe it should apply to everything listed under this category? For orders under $79, the coupon will be converted to a percentage discount. Will the percentage discount apply to all mechanical keyboard items in an entire order, or it can only be applied to a single mechanical keyboard item in the order? Thanks in advance!

Work around for firmware/configuration update error "command not recognized"
I spent more than an hour attempting to update my Drop Shift keyboard. I'm not sure what has changed, but I was not able to do it entirely from the Drop website as I had previously done. I have most of the keys configured how I would like, but the default LED function was a very bright, distracting, rainbow wave going across the keyboard. Every time I turned the computer on I had to manually adjust the lights how I liked. Using the online version or the locally installed app, you first have to install the QMK XAP interface. You then have to flash your already configured firmware file, which can be done on the Drop website. If you are logged in your last configuration is saved under your account and you can alter what you like, so you don't have to start from scratch. So, following the instructions I selected the appropriate board, entered bootloader mode, but when attempting to flash the file, I would get an error that the C:/Users/Mike C..... command is not recognized...
