Is Rachel racing this year?
She posted on Instagram that they were doing a team shoot over the weekend. Her and Gee were all kitted up. Said an announcement in a couple of days (so today or tomorrow).

Didn't seen that one coming, but given her performance last year I can't say I'm totally surprised. Don't seem to be a lot of big moves in XC this year.

I heard it was Luca riding on that clip as well but I can’t tell? Would be a big SG Team?

Yamaha is e-bike only.....Lopes has been working with them for a while now.

I don't see them putting any money into pedal bikes.

Kye A'Hern's departure makes the much-repeated Luca/Canyon rumor even more plausible. But that's just, like, my opinion, man.

Tuhoto liked mondraker bikes post about the carbon DH bike December 24th also follows both MS team and mondraker bikes too.

Doesn’t seem to follow any other teams or brands other than union and zerode (being a kiwi brand that’s normal)

I’d say there is strong chance Tuhoto joins the bulldog
just stalked his follows etc and you are correct, looks good for mondraker. rumours about Pivot and he doesn't even follow any pivot accounts

Exactly.. Even though the stuff is good, they have never seemed to gain much traction in the MTB world ..

He's already been partially using 7mesh gear for jackets, pants etc but maybe he's now switching to using all their MTB gear?

I see a fair amount of fly stuff in the us. Almost exclusively the radium kit their top pros wear.

The noiz line on the other hand seems to entirely sell thru jensons clearance section. Dh pants for like 35 bucks.

The only person that’s still on is Barry Nobles but he’s off of Haro and MTB now and back to BMX on Chase.
