Devinci hinting at a new Wilson being available sometime in the Spring of 2027. What does a Devinci WC team look like?
Not sure about the team, but the new Wilson looks amazing. Also isn't horribly priced. Kinda in between the upcoming low and high spec Transition TR11s.
The OTB podcast guys said that Santa Cruz Burgtec by Goodman might be switching to DeVinci, and adding Gloria Scarsi to the roster.
Ah, I haven't listened to OTB podcast in a while, so I missed that. Pretty decent team for a return to WC racing from Devinci, even if it's only as a frame supplier. Curious to see if they make any other roster changes, outside of adding Gloria Scarsi.

Superinteresting team with Bouladou and Pontvianne as 2 upcoming rippers.
Let's wait and see, if one these 2 moves maybe on to a factory team?

I view Nathan Pontvianne sort of the way I see Erice Van Leuven: If they get fully healthy and stay healthy all season they're going to be contending for podiums. It wouldn't surprise me at all to see one of them get a win.
How crazy that the deadline is in November and there are no solid rumors. Is everyone locked into contracts? Any news on Erice? It looks like she'll be back.
Most rider contracts are up end of 2027 I heard on a Downtime podcast I think, maybe the post-Whistler show?
That would make sense. The 2024 switch over to WB and the rejigging of points and teams ment a lot of riders held a lot of cards to qualify teams for world cup status when that seemed to matter before it switched to the teams having the points.
Come to think of it, did that even matter this year? The world cup teams and wild cards? I remember it being a big deal the last two years but it didn't seem to get much note this past year.
Some might say the 2027 Team Rumors thread is weak. Well, if the numbers mean anything, I suppose they could have a point, even if the 2027 thread is a relatively young work in progress:

Tight budgets, high barrier of team entry and only 30 riders in a final makes team thread a dull boy.

There was a lot of noise around wild cards for teams but the reality was there was pretty much enough spots as there was teams .

My dude Red Number 3 with the facts and figures, as always. Are you a statistician IRL? An accountant perhaps?

I remember something similar. Like... there were VERY few notable riders whose contracts were up at the end of this year. As in like 5, which isn't exactly rocket fuel for a team rumors thread. Next year will be absolutely nuts, though.

Erice is a ticking bomb.
I hope she recoveres well fromthese hellish crashs.
She has to learn how to dosage the immense speed she can reach. Will be a hard task, because she can't afford a third crash like these.
That's a huge difference between Pontvianne and her.

Troy on new Ironhorse team. Confirmed!
I’m gonna start a thread about this.

i'll get a 2027 race talk thread started soon, but crankworx just announced dates for next year
2027 Crankworx World Tour Dates
Sugarloaf Maine? Sick.
Sugarloaf in NB they have been there the past two summers. But adding Maine in would be sweet for the east coast.
On any given Sunday...
Sugarloaf NB is a great park. It's been years but it was a great surprise.
Eli Tomac quits Supercross to ride DH world cups on his dads new bikes ?
I don't know anything about XC teams but Jolanda Neff has just been announced to be joining Fenix-Premier Tech team for XC, CX, and road.
Danny Hart is following Whyte bikes on instagram. Did we see a prototype Whyte dh bike on here earlier in the summer?
It was a homemade bike and the builder wore a whyte tshirt. He posted about it somewhere on vital.
This is the weakest team rumours thread ever.
Yep, rubbish

Actually, I have a degree in accounting but fortunately it opened other doors for me and I have never had to work as an accountant.🤓
