Bos forks are good when set up right. It's their customer service that is $hit.

I got a hunch Aggy is headed to Evil Bikes. Part of me feels hes done competing at events like rampage and is gonna move towards a more lifestyle athlete. Evil's athletes are all the silent assasin type and he would fit in well there and would give Evil a big name behind the brand.

I could be also just full of shit haha

I just saw Casey Brown was hanging out at the fox racing headquarters. I wonder if this means leaving Dakine and/or Bell.

Reece Wilson on a Trek Slash with RockShox forks and 100% kit? It’s tagged Ruaridh Cunningham, but he doesn’t wear 100% wear as this looks like the same full face Wilson has been using, and he has been known to do this jump before. So I think it was Ruaridh on the camera, and Reece on the bike... Maybe I’m wrong though.

Vital members are killing it with the rumor detective work. I expect updates at least every 2hrs until all rumors are spoiled.Tongue

Hi, I'm Julien from France and I shoot VoulVoul Racing Team (VVR) since 2011. I do it for free (that's not my job) and this year I was with the team in Vallnord and La Bresse.
If you are interested, watch my video. I translated it in english. It's not really a team video, it's not really a film, it's not really a TV Show,... It's just something funny I did for my friend Patrice Afflatet, Team Manager. In 20 years, we'll watch it and still laugh I think ! "Pedro" and "Boris", in the video, are riders of the VVR since the beginning and I wanted them to be in my movie even if they don't compete in World Cup now.

Next DH season will be great ! I know all the "moving french riders" have already founded good teams for 2019 ! Rudy Cabirou, Florent Payet, Gaetan Vige, Marine Cabirou, Baptiste Pierron... I love all of these "outsiders" !

Halo released a video on Friday showing Jack Reading of One Vision Global Racing, what bike is he on though, it sure isn’t a Geomotron!

George Gannicot also moving on from the team to somewhere new

Gambler?

Nope not a gambler. Looks like an evil but it’s not. Linkage is wrong.
