Replace the bike seat with a bed pan. Gives new meaning to "dropper post."

I think probably upper woods for juniors, then work your way down over the course of the racing to the finish line for the end of Men's Elite. That will probably be what most people do.

What does MKT mean here? It was Stan’s when I first went tubeless, so it’s Stan’s forever. Tried some Joe’s that I got for free once, Slime is from Nickelodeon. I looked into mixing up a bucket of homemade sealant but it just doesn’t make sense. Never heard anything good about MucOff sealant. Thank you your attention to this splatter.

Surely, we’ll be seeing this bike soon...

There is nothing that says small team needs to equal small pay. With the increased travel a smaller team could save a lot of money over a large organization. Say they get one or two large non industry sponsors their checkbook could be looking a lot better a lot quicker then a large factory based team where the majority of the money is coming from the bike industry..... I'm 100% certain all of these riders have their own best interest in where they go next year 😂. So the internet certainly does not need to worry for them.

I mean, the short version of it is that neither the Albert nor the MM have tread patterns which work well on the local terrain and despite going from underinflated to overinflated in 1psi increments I was never able to find a tire pressure which provided the support I wanted without uncontrolled rebounding off rocks. I think your first clue is that you’ve been running MMs and they’ve been working for you for the last 8 years. A more compliant version of a tire which works for you sounds great. A more compliant version of a tire which doesn’t work...

Listened to Wyntv from Vermont. Sounds like Gwin is all in for the WC next year. I bet Dak is joining the program for super team USA / Tennessee.

comment, from pinkbike… if it‘s true, oh boy!

Nothing against Angel personally but he's gotten by many years in my opinion because of Martin's ties to every single one of the team's Angel has ridden for.

This is the funny thing about whiteface. It is owned and run by the state, so its simplify the state choosing to ignore another part of the state. It won't get canceled. Some people will be angry, maybe a lawsuit will get filed. The stuff on the open ski runs will get pushed flat again so they can groom and they will argue about it again next year.

Just came across this article, local environmental group is pissed that Whiteface didn't get permits approved by DEC for the world cup track. Goes to show how tough it can be to build trails in the area, working in the Adirondacks is highly regulated. https://www.adirondackexplorer.org/community-news/government/orda-viola…

Yes, I've been saying this for a long time. The thing holding Schwalbes back are there terrible (in relation to the competition) tread patterns. -The Magic Mary is a good pattern, albeit dated and could benefit from being given a little bit of steroids in terms of knob stoutness/size. But looks like they have the High Roller III/Argotal prototype in the works for this. -Albert is a disappointing tread pattern. Weak. 4 other friends and I, who've all ridden it, share similar feelings. It's good for some stuff, but even though it's an Assegai copy, it falls way short. -Other...
