Didn't realize he lived in that area, I just remembered Neko. If the YT Mob folded that would be big. Would Martin start a new team with another brand? I hear Canyon and commencal barely have anyone on their bikes next season, maybe they could use a few riders.

I've been out of the DH game for almost 10 years, as in not owning one. So I didn't realize they have shorter reach numbers than Enduro bikes. I love descending on my Enduro, so I just assumed DH bikes would have at least the same reach numbers if not longer.

Yeah, TLD doesn't make a road helmet so my guess is its just a stand in. And no, riding road with a mtb helmet, regardless of visor, does not look ok haha.

Florian Nicolai off from trek... Wondering who will replace him... And hopefully Pedro burns stays on the team

Probably just a road helmet from his gf jolanda

doh good point

Greenland definitely on the syndicate (well Santa Cruz at least). Saw him riding one mid week at ponty last week.

The customer is not being fleeced, fact of the matter is that prices are going up everywhere. Louis Vuitton backpacks are more expensive. Salt Bae steaks are more expensive. Lamborghini Urus' are more expensive. Cryptopunk Twitter Avatars are more expensive. If MTB brands don't put the prices up, how will the employees be able to buy all of the above? It's absolutely criminal that people who work in the industry can't buy themselves a new Richard Mille watch because consumers want cheaper bike parts...

Haha, Wow!! Haven't seen that for awhile! Some of my best work!! Yep, printed on home inkjet printer and CD's so old that our new computers can't read them.

Team rumors forum this year is a bigger disappointment than the anti-vaxers keeping this pandemic trucking right along. Come on Vital, make some burner accounts and spill the beans for us already....there's barely 2 weeks left on some of these contracts. This fire needs some fuel!!!!

Rampage is an event they sponsor they are not signing contracts with all the competitors. How about Crankworks or UCI sanctioned events then tones of athletes get injured during these events and there is the expectation that the athlete has insurance to cover them and not the events responsibility to help the athlete

Team news from Nukeproof: ----------------------------------------------------- Welcome to the team: Louise Ferguson Nukeproof are stoked to welcome Louise Ferguson to the team.

Welp....

Who is contracted with Canyon through the end of the 2022 season. . .

There are so many people in Red Bull helmets these days. Starting to dilute the 'big deal' part of it.

Sounds like your just making stuff up with out having any actual idea.

Yea he might be down to earth... too bad he thinks the earth is flat and "covid isnt real" among other things. He's been pretty vocal about both subjects on social. I guess depending on where you sit on those subjects you could either consider him a "mush brain" as someone put it, or some sort of intellectual genius. Enough said, lets keep this to team rumors.
