Did Specialized just break a new record of the most expensive MTB from a big box brand? The non-motorized version (SJ15) is $18,000 CAD

Looks like Jordan is to stay on Specialized Gravity.

I bet he knows that we know so this must mean some kind of hint with the belt.

The focus of this being the way they wrote the number 4 which is still a bit different and not focused on the caliper itself which is completely different is kind of funny. When are we gonna start talking about what color crayons taste best cause i feel like we are getting pretty close?

Saw this EXT Vaia at Sundance loam pass event on an Ari, talked to the ext guys for a bit about it. He said it’s internally adjustable from 170-200, meant for heavy enduro and dh. He said they’ll start selling hopefully in November for around 2k USD

TFR?

They're also heirs to the $ billion tennis racket empire. Meanwhile, has Danny Hart been spotted riding a Nukeproof in NZ yet?

stupid sexy Isles

Reece Wilson in new pinkbike video (advertorial), about belt driven bike prize money. No trek kit, just a lotus hat. I'd say it gives even more credibility to the Gamux team rumour. https://youtu.be/VZJfXHECfiY?si=XCAj0TI2IT8hl93p

Finn Iles on Canyon confirmed. EDIT: Also bring back the lycra era.

Pretty cool concept. I remember first noticing this on Vali Höll's YT. She rode without the pulleys during practice and then they were added for the final. Rulezman also makes them for his Banshee bikes. He claims it completely removes pedal kickback.

Interesting...

brendog's post-rampage vlog

Anyone else notice the bike Semenuk rode in rampage wasn’t just a gen 5 slash? Looks nice IMO

The truth is out there

Well at least the Women’s was a good watch. After that bs score I am done watching. It’s clear all they care about is Slopestyle on 4’ wide highways

Reece Wilson creating his own team apparently being gamux bikes and getting heaps of funding from somewhere out of industry Seems loris and Benoit to commencal with a huge commencal team being formed with all muc off riders too Ellie Hulsebosch has signed with syndicate for next year, Felix Griffiths also signed Stevens mcnabb to trek Anna Newkirk to frameworks Also unior sinter apparently loosing trek and riders just riding their own bikes

Can finally talk about it publicly Asa on Red Bull 🙌🏽

I am in the engineering department at Push, and we're all big fans of the Vital community! - Matt I guess I should prefaced that manufacturing comment, before I get the "my buddy owns a casting shop and ..." 😂 So for starters there aren't many magnesium casting suppliers in the US (probably because of safety issues 🔥) but funny enough there is one just down the street from us. The problem with most US manufacturers is size, difficulty, volume, and capacity all have to align before they are interested in any new work. In my experience this is fundamentally...
