Everything that team does makes me want to know them outside of just internet vids. Seems to me to be the coolest team on the circuit, from riders to support to owner. Syndicate plus CG I reckon will be looked at years down the road in high nostalgic regard. Cheers!

Met Minnaar and Bryceland a couple/few times at some of our local races and they were extremely approachable and personable. True pros!

First carbon bike on a worlds podium? Not according to the Specialized ad for the S-Works Carbon Demo. I think that Specialized's claim is wrong as well. Pretty sure Cam Cole was on a carbon bike when he won Jr. Worlds in 2006. Didn't Nico Nico Voiulloz win on a carbon Sunn back in the late 90's? I tried looking that one up but couldn't really find anything online about it.
