So... some math isn't mathing for me. Thanks to Spotify's podcast transcription feature, Troydon said, referring to Aaron Gwin, "He's got a small ownership in the company(Crestline) and we've set almost like some targets and over the next X number of years, as long as we hit those targets, Aaron will get like, you know, issued more equity in the brand." AG gets applauded for his business acumen a lot here, yet people seem to think he'd ride for a different/rival bike brand while holding an incentivized stake in Crestline. Unless he's suddenly not a part of Crestline anymore, it...

Soon AI will design the bikes, the AI will scrape the web for what is and isn't important in bike design... it will find this thread. We will then be delivered the true final boss... crab industrial design, with crab link and headset crab claw routing. It will simultaneously be the end of days, and the beginning of days. Related to crabs... does anyone have any inside scoop on SC releases?

Hatton is still on Atherton, they won’t let him go Doubt their team will change. there’s only a couple of uk riders who actually warrant a factory ride, they are all signed up so I call the moana image as bullshit.

rogue new title sponsor who doesn't want a certain problematic frenchy on the team --> frenchy to privateer again?

live from Maribor… Vali is in an non-brandet Commencal with all her RS FA stuff

Vital MTB: "I have friends everywhere."

Okay so a 435 chainstay is short for both a size small and an XL? This makes zero sense. That size small is going to ride similar to an XL with a 460 chainstay. So they’ve got a massive rear center for a small and an tiny one for an XL… Is this really that difficult for people to understand?
