5/20/2024 8:11pm This is my question, especially when the former owners have already hung up their spurs once and chosen to retire. I hope they put 100% into Kona 2.0, but my brain is suspicious until I see it. Running a bike company seems like a constant drinking-from-a-firehose situation, and they're coming back from sipping Mojito's on the beach, living off that corporate sell-out money. That's a tough transition.

5/20/2024 8:10pm Serious question: what makes you think that the same ownership that made Kona go from a very well-known go-to brand in mid 90s-00s to decline during 10s/20s (with some outstanding models nonetheless) a better company now?

5/20/2024 8:07pm I thought Poland broadcast was pretty decent, the commentary with Aaron and Greg was great. There are still some WTF moments with inaudible audio or plain confusion. You would think WB would know better. I'm not a fan of Hosh and the other girls. They may want to explain things to a more casual audience and I have nothing against it but the quality is not here, they are just babbling some nonsense... They should get a guy like SethBikeHacks to write them some lines, he is doing a better job to connect with a casual audience... Regardless, I still...

5/20/2024 8:48am The coverage itself is okay. However, I do have issue with the subscription cost when you consider the quality and quantity of the coverage compared to other forms of racing. To continue your comparison to supercross and motocross, DH is 2-3 times more expensive to watch and they race 8 times (including world champs) compared to 17 supercross rounds, 11...

5/19/2024 9:07am So Gwin has a broken foot now!? I’m not sure he intended for it to be announced by Warner Brothers and Kate Mason. This has got to mean he doesn’t make it back this year at all.

5/19/2024 9:06am I wonder how many years of racing he plans to do at this point. I kind of thought this year would be his last hurrah, but maybe this will keep him chasing results? I’m sure he doesn’t want it to end like this

5/17/2024 2:32pm You can have an open section that's still great in bending. I beams for example. Torsion is where having a closed out tube is very advantageous. Vertical and horizontal stiffness might be up there, but if the whole rear end is twisting then closing out the cross sections would be a good approach. Carbon on aluminum can be a nightmare. Galvanic corrosion is extreme compared to just about anything else if they aren't isolated.

5/17/2024 1:05pm I actually wouldn't put it past Loic to have these buttons on his bike literally just to play mind games and make the other racers nervous. Like, buttons not even hooked up to anything, nothing special under that shock cover, all just to f*ck with people.

5/17/2024 12:47pm What if the buttons don't do anything but the engineers tell Loic and Finn they do? "Okay big guy, you can choose between boost-blaster setting, super boost-blaster setting, or ultra boost-blaster setting. Now go fast!"

5/17/2024 7:47am I don't see why people are getting worked up about wether or not there should be e-bike racing or not, they could be on gravel bikes and no one would know with the coverage they are giving us.

5/17/2024 7:01am Maybe it’s a result of increased track speed on the World Cup circuit and the pros feeling like they need something different? It’s definitely interesting to see them all on it. Check out 6D for yourself if you’ve had previous concussion issues and safety is your top priority for a helmet.
