nukeproof out of racing, big bummer. Glad to hear they have a different frame sponsor lined up though. 

This is a bummer, there are a lot of great riders out there right now that should be on teams.  Sucks these larger investment company's that buy these bike company's don't care about more then just there bottom line.

What is up with the Transition Factory Race team? I see they lost their elite men's rider, and now I heard a rumor they are about to lose their youngest and fastest rider Aletha as well...  Can anyone confirm this, or know what's going on?

There is and always has been a high level of f*ckery going on at Transition Factory Racing. I can tell you that much.

Rocky Race Face team off Shimano and onto SRAM. Wonder if it's no longer Race Face? 

Rocky SRAM Enduro Team? 

Trolled by Morland with the "Thanks for stopping by the office" comment on Reno's post. Well played.

Hmmm, 2 troll accounts created from out of nowhere in the last couple days in order to try and cast doubt on this operation.  Seems like some folks may need a refresher on conflict management and resolution. Whatsoever happened to the phone call or the face-to-face meeting?

Yeah.  Feels like I got dropped into a Portlandia skit.  And then I went back and the guy is posting from the PNW & I feel like I'm a detective on the OJ case.

That would be sick. He deserves to be on a team like that.

Not sure about how I could be a troll?  I simply asked a question.... Yes my account is new because I've never had a desire to patriciate in online forums. At some point your account was new as well.. does that mean your first post was you being a "troll".

I bet Danny will kill it on either the GT or the Atherton frame, give him the tools and he will make something great out of it. I have no idea how they could even afford him at atherton bikes, they have like 6 top level riders and I can't imagine they sell a ton of bikes these days either...

In Matt Jones's latest video he gives a shout out to Vital Team Rumors when Ronan Dunne is trying out his Marin in the car park.

He doesn't need Monster. But, I would love to see a full Monster race team with Danny on it in addition to their sponsoring individual racers.

For me, it's starting an account to toss gas on a topic that no one else has said anything about yet.  You know something but you're afraid to come out and just say it.  That smells fishy to any reasonable person.

In your initial post, you display the clear ability to spell, punctuate, and articulate a thought. But in your next post, you would appear to attempt to cover your tracks by failing to use an apostrophe to indicate possession. Next, you indicate you seemingly don't know the difference in usage of then/than and their/there/they're.

Sorry, I just don't buy it. Say what you want to say, or not. Stop beating around the bush, troll.

Ballr, like I have previously mentioned, yes my account is new because I have never had the desire to interact on a forum, and morons like you are the reason why! For some reason dipshits like you don't like what you read and decide it is irrelevant in your mind and instead of moving on you feel you have some sort of god given right to try to put people down to validate yourself. I do live in the PNW, so yes I do have a vested interest in the Transition team. I follow them at the local level and hope the best for them. I did hear a rumor at a local trail head and unfortunately for me I don't know anyone that works at Transition to ask, so I came on here, a public forum about "team rumors".

    As far as my grammar goes, my first question or two was from my computer. The rest were done via my phone over voice text. I'll be sure to reach out to apple to make sure the next update does a better job at dictating my tone and demeaner for simple idiots like you to understand.

"my tone and demeaner for simple idiots like you to understand" This is my favorite part.  Thanks for the morning chuckle.

It would seem no one here has any information to aid you on your quest for knowledge. Best wishes on your search moving forward. 

Adieu.

They do offer Delano peak builds with the XX Transmission, Stans wheels, and that looks like a DHF front tire and Aggressor rear. I'd say a good guess on the Fezzari Delano peak.

I'll just stop the wound from bleeding more, not a fezz.

 

Who wants to bet it's not a Fezz?

 

I'm butt hurt by the down votes ppl!

 

I want action on this one!

Not sure why they didn't just completely rebrand but it is a better name. Fezzari always just sounded like a cheaper amazon brand name and they do seem to have proven themselves over the last few years. Ari still feels awkward but I'm also a long time, jaded bike industry person. Good on them, the new bikes look great.

Well, good luck Fezzari... er Ari.  I cant imagine Kyle is exactly 'light' on his bikes.  Wonder if they are going to work with him on a DH bike or just do the ole, chuck a boxxer on the front and see what happens.   

That said my friend has one, and other then the fact that I thought it was italian at first it seems like a great bike. I don't know how a US brand has been able to fly so low under the radar for so long.  Maybe Rachel and Kyle will do the trick.
