KTM bikes have existed for basically decades. But it's a licensing deal for the brand, it's not the same company. I think the Husqvarna situation is the same.

AFAIK the husky/gas gas bikes are by KTM group. They don't have the rights to KTM bicycles hence using the smaller brands.
Launched in August. But on the top tube, right behind the display, it says Ekano CF and only the alloy one is available, so looks like a carbon version gonna be release soln. And that also means Sram uses the same fixing patern as Shimano. That's a good Idea

Wonder if SRAM will have plug in ports for their next generation of droppers and mechs, do away with the external batteries. The seat post would certainly look cleaner.

Hmmm definitely doesn't look to be the same as Shimano. More likely they moved to the Sram DU when they tooled the carbon molds.
Rear Triangle on Minnaar's bike sure does not look production. If it is that carbon work is really bad.

This is just collusion between plastic surgeons and the bike industry. Soon there will be 2 for 1 services available for removing cellulite from your bike and your ass.
is it just me, or is that SRAM motor cover looking seriously unfinished and unrefined? SRAM spends so much time on marketing, graphic design and arguably aesthetics, it just looks like a big old lump of plastic. Atleast shimano put some fake vents in lol.
If Gasgas don't rebrand to Wattwatt, they will have missed the marketing coup of the year.
Upcoming trailhead conversations:
-Hey, what bike is that?
-Wattwatt!
-Hum...

Is that a Vorsprung shock, as well?

Yes, there is podcast vital podcast episode about it

Alex Marin run Sensus and GasGas
New propain eeb as well?

quick look into neko working w/ faction bike studio for some FEA stuff

disappointed that the new gasgas/ktm doesn't use a steel frame like their motos

Looks like SRAM is baking in an automatic Transmission? Auto Shift shows up in the HUD with what looks like cadence adjustments.

Santa Cruz sent an email to their mailing list about his bike and the custom fabrication they did to the rear triangle. I’ll see if I can find it.
Yep. Greg wanted a stiffer rear triangle than the current proto V10. They hand-laid some extra plies for him.
From latest Pit Bits:
- Upcoming Maxxis tire is called the Mudslayer, per the Santa Cruz pits
- New M1 due "early next year"; no set date yet but it's in production
:still waiting to see the new demo uncovered:
At this point this bike feels more of Halo project for Specialized and I wouldn't be surprised if they just don't uncover it.
Its a big fat-bottomed, no? Countering the trend of slimmer, more camouflaged drive systems
I would be shocked if they don't also have a "light" e-bike system in the works as well.

It seems like the new Spindrift is on its way, although propain really loves cable tourism, other beautiful bike ruined by stupid ideas

Sorry that's a bit ugly, the url wouldn't embed.
could actually be the elkano cf with sram motor zooming in
It's BONKERS that GM can feel a 3% difference in stiffness...
