wow so that's it? Looked like the wind was dying down around 3:30mst...I swear I've seen dudes hit their runs in considerably more winded conditions...but who am I to know any better. Tyle McCaul was on a 1st place run...was most excited to see him trim the fat on that second run and fucking STOMP Gee's gap... This was a RAW as fuck Rampage course wise...Zink was also potentially going to take a top three had he completed a second run (favorite rider). Why can't they just run this event tomorrow morning, better yet why the FUCK didn't they start...

TEAMROBOT Liked a reply to forum topic Cable Routing - What do riders want?

This a friendly reminder that there's a lot of horrible external cable routing, too. I've had noisy and rattly hoses and housing, I've had a rock chop my downtube-routed external brakeline in half on a road trip ($70 for a replacement Shimano hose from an LBS, ouch), I've had crazy rubbing and paint wear from cables, I've had below the BB routing (booooo), I've had a bird's nest of cables at the headtube, and I've had 10 foot long derailleur housing because the cable is seemingly routed on every tube of the frame before it arrives at the rear derailleur...

Fully external routing: fine. Internal routing, guided: fine. Internal routing, unguided, with large entrance and exit ports: also generally fine. Internal routing, unguided, with small entrance and exit ports: not fine. Through the headset: fuck all the way off.

Ryan is a first year junior racer and Asa is still U17 until 2024.

I think with both Jordan and Jackson turning up, Kerr's chances of a podium just got downgraded.

adamdigby Added a reply to Another geo thread - this time, related to stack height

9/10/2022 8:48pm

I just rode my XXL Transition Spire for the first time and had a big issue with the too low stack height. For some reason the factory sent the Zeb out with the steerer tube cut so only 20mm of spacer will go under the stem, 40mm stem 5 degree rise, and 40mm bars. I have rolled the bars forward...

Great race! Shitty World Cup Overall trophy! I won better trophies when I was racing BMX and getting 4th at local races!

The Opera browser's free built-in VPN has worked on Red Bull for me the past few years in the USA in Colorado on Spectrum and Washington state on a different ISP. I'd avoid FloSports' silly pricing and pay structure at all costs.

What's the point of the high and low settings being so incredibly close? 3mm bb change and .3 degree HA change doesn't seem like a noticeable enough difference to bother including the feature. I really like the stack and CS sizes on the XXL being built for XXL riders. Aside from the pricing I am quite intrigued in this bike.

It doesn't look too bad to me. If a racer is worried about sliding off track there he can always check up a bit, either way a crash would be on him and not the turn.

The split times are all funky with who is green and which position they were at the time. Looks like Finn was super speed to split 2. Also interesting to see how far off the Juniors are this time compared to TTs in the past.

The course in Val di Sole is very much worth seeing in person, more so than the Les Gets track. I would also venture to say the crowds will be smaller which is a bonus in my eyes but your views might differ.

Is it an engineering challenge to pull off mucho stack for XL and higher sizes? I'm 6"1" and running 30mm of spaces and a 35mm rise bar on a bike with same stack as this ones XL (642).

It just sucks to get cheated out of all the reach with a tower of spacers.

What was dangerous about the DH course? They could have just taped around the final wood feature given the conditions, otherwise I can't think of anything.
