Happy that Pinkerton, Dunne, and Dak all found (assuming the big budget thing for Mondraker is real) pretty good rides. That being said, mondraker marketing tried to drag this bs on for way too long. Hype it up, announce it, be done with it.

So good for Dak, Mondrakers team looking very strong for sure.

I just need for Danny Hart and Aron to get into some good teams and I'm a happy camper for the season

Seems like they both have money, so I bet they both have nice pits this year.

The team owns that (MS), so it should be staying with them (now MS Intense). MS = Markus Stöckl Racing, they’ve had various title sponsors attached over the years, but the team infrastructure belongs to them.

Mondraker is going to have a sick pit.

Heard the main reason Dak signed with mondraker is cause they are making him a signature handlebar, with 65mm rise and a crossbar.

MS Intense. The massive bus is owned by MS Racing, and has been part of their set up for years, on their previous iterations (MS Intense / MS Evil / MS Mondraker).

The bus features in the opening segment of 3Focus with Matti Lehikoinen (skip to 3:36)...

Jeez, it's not everyday that something you shot more than 15 years ago gets referenced in a forum thread! The small crash he had on the second shot was literally the second shot we shot that day, and was actually pretty harsh, and almost caused the whole shoot to be cancelled.

He already pushed the forks through and cleaned the truck out of spacers. Just. Need. A. Little. Higher. Front. End.

Just watched/listen to the podcast on YouTube.

If Mondraker makes a Dak signature 50mm rise bar, I will buy it. Give the man some royalties and give us the stack height we all need for our aging backs!

It's a great film! Def one of the best World Cup films IMO. Classic DH at its best.

I was impressed by the 30+ downvotes so got motivated to actually show you a printscreen:

I kid about that DJ bar, but I would like to see more choices for higher rises.

I’m fully aware of the growing range of high rise bars, I’m currently using some 48mm Reverse Nico Vink bars, I just want them to be emblazoned with the name of the King Of Stack himself!
