Although now scrolling thru Max's insta, there's not one pic or reel of Erice that I spotted?

Amazing programs like the Les Orres team  probably won't be at the world cups. Hopefully she is going to YT with Vali. It would be great to see them compete with FMD. We need teams with more than one female rider.  

True, and she does seem to get on pretty damn well with Vali.

That doesn’t look like the usual Gamux rear end either, looks to have a Horst link and a pivot up by the seat tube?

You're right, there's a rocker link on the top tube seat tube junction. Looks like a high pivot variant of what the proto Demo is like with the chainstay driving the additional linkage to drive the shock (that looks like it's in the old location and orientation).

Is there even something like "usual" rear end, they seem to be changing it up all the time, be it front end or back. I think this could work pretty well since Reece is open minded and likes to experiment with unusual setups, at least that's what I have noticed before 🤷🏻

Hopefully with Erice that will be the motivation NorCo needs to do majority of monster pro series.  Erice cleaned up with some good prize money last year.

I see your passive attempt at not saying but saying "what's your point?" Lol.

However following a team while you are in the world cup series makes sense. Following a bike brand that you have no ties to along with their race division says a bit more. Can you tell us what other race teams she follows and the bike brand as well?

It wasn’t a passive way of saying, “what’s the point?” I wanted to express that I had also noticed Trek! Your idea make sense, I’m really curious to see all the missing announcements.

What's up w/ that stem? 0-offset/crazy short or just a weird angle?

Edit: One-piece crown/stem?

Surely Spesh would be thinking about adding a female racer, and Erice is probably the up and coming Female with the most hype - so this makes sense in theory… if not Erice then who? Its a pretty bad look at this point for the most prestige team in the comp to not be putting enough stock in female racing to think it worthy of having one on their team..

My all time favourite team rumour appears to be true! Also - look at that stem. It looks very, very short. Interesting setup from Reece as usual!
