Get a cheap DT Swiss hub, throw 54T ratchet in. I've heard people stripping the ratchet, but I've had one in my Ebike for a year and all good. Sound like a King hub if you like that sort of sound.

The countermeasure does nothing imo. The megneg is the real deal, but it took a lot of back to back runs, strap wrenches, rubber bands, volume spacers, cock....i mean shock pumps..... but it did work well. My 2020 bike I kept it stupidly heavy and simple, DHX2 with Cane Creek progressive spring, F36 up front with the underated fitgrip damper...

Also, only one male rider has won a World Cup in his debut year in Elite. That was Gee Atherton at Round 3 in Schladming, back in 2004. Both Greg and Sam won their first WC in their 2nd year of elite. Nicolas Vouilloz won a World Cup as a Junior (the first ever World Cup in 1993), and then won his second race as a 2nd year elite in 1995. For the women, three have won races in the debut elite year, Anne-Caroline Chausson, Rachel Atherton and Tracey Hannah. Three women have also won World Cups as juniors when...

Shaw is incredibly fast, his Seeding times prove it time and time again.... he just needs to keep it on 2 wheels on one of those runs and he will get the chocolates.

I think the 2020 supreme went back to 64deg H/A too. Or it may have always been that. But I found that interesting. My trail bike is 63.2 now days.

Yes they are good value (don't read as "cheap) but there must be a reason a good amount of WC Privateers are using them, They would be using the bike they believe would provide them with the best result, price not been a factor.

Commencals recent streak with their race winning Supreme is working well on the sales front at least here. Seeing a lot of them and for good reason, it's a great bike at a great price. In the good old days with cars it was "race on sunday, sell on Monday" and that somewhat is true in the MTB industry. then...

it's a good fit, he's already on TLD/Lusty. Canyon may have got themselves a comparative bargain. I wanna see the big man on a 550mm reach 1400mm wheelbase german cruise missile shooting frickin lazer beams yiewwwww

as an evo owner I wouldn't recommend one unless you are a super aggressive trail rider or live somewhere STEEP. As much as it hurts to say it, the big "S" went too gnarly on that bikes Geo. Only place it made sense was when I went to New Zealand for a week and rode nothing but double black WC...

It would be sweet to someday see a privateer just totally dominate the field. An angry Jack on the hunt has that potential.

Reece Potter definitely on transition. Stamp it. For Jack, I'm thinking a privateer supreme effort with help from the GC's at Lusty industries. Get him on the right bike and watch him shock a few people.

I put one on my evo, combined with Vorsprung tractive tune it is incredible. As good as the EXT storia I demo'd but 1/2 the cost. I'll save you some time, 1 red token and 2 bands in the negative is the sweet spot.... well for me at least.

ed's been selling a couple of his phoenix's lately. Moir had a big intense garage sale too, same with Graves selling anything with a "S" on it. Wouldn't surprise me if he moved on.
