Daprela on a V10 in his last story

Pinkbike posted their annual what bikes might get updated this year, figured some might be interested here. Personally, I'm most excited for the Yeti SB160 and the Forbidden Downcountry bike.

Blick has been gone for a few years. He’s at Shimano now. Even when he was it was a struggle for MTB at Oakley. Golf and the NFL was becoming a priority.

Brage has to be one of the biggest ones we're still waiting on.

Oakley and Luxottica could not care less about gravity MTB. They will throw some cash and marketing at the XC athletes going to the LA Olympics, which is probably why they are cutting budgets now. But in general, they have not updated an MTB goggle in years and could really care less about MTB. Best thing for riders and fans to do is not buy Oakley. Although sadly their lenses are great for trail riding.

what? - pretty simple really, bleed, massage aggressively, check bleed, draw a little vacuum on caliper... Repressure system and let balance, close up, done. When aligning pads/rotor, Pull aggressively to get the distance... every couple of rides pull the levers hard make sure pistons are advancing. I've seen a few guys who drag their brakes with little pressure have issues and a simple Hard few pulls on the levers make them feel fine again.... doesnt it actually say this in the Manual? If you follow this... no issues and simple stuff.

Strange thing I just noticed..What's up with Gwin and Oakley? Fox takes care of FW..But Oakley is not listed as one of AG's personal sponsors. Just found that a bit weird..

schroeder and i had a good hour-long podcast with gwin this morning. it'll be up tomorrow morning. he speaks pretty freely about everything and how it all works.

Can we agree this is officially the AAA team ?

Still a few loose ends, but looks like this thread is pretty much wrapped up. And you know what that means? Time to head over to Vital MX for Supercross Season! If anything can top Gwin to Frameworks, it's the 2026 SX team changes. Tomac to KTM, Sexton to Kawi, Roczen & El Hombre kick starting it together on Suzukis, Bam Bam on a Ducati, brand new Yamahas for the Coopers, and Jett to possibly miss the entire SX series. It's going to be nuts on Saturday! 🤘

He did.

Maybe Gwin racing will rebrand into a continental team under Crestline with Frida and crispy. idk

I saw the wildest thing ever. I saw him testing the bike and there was a bald eagle following him the whole way each lap! It was incredible. Never seen anything like it. The American dream team growing

I'm not even from the USA and I'm stoked as hell for this!
