Yup, can confirm I get way more trail maintenance done with my E-bike: you get to ride so many more descents, so it isn't as frustrating "wasting" ride time on trail maintenance. And you can easily carry a bigger pack with more tools, further. These bikes are not just for lazy rich people, some of us just want to save time, get more done and drive a whole lot less...

The Syndicate is a department at SCB, its not a separate entity. It has always been this way. In that way, the athletes, the management and the activities of the team reflect the values of the brand. Its an integral part of how we operate, not a bolt-on that lasts a couple years til' it moves to another brand in a transparent game of musical chairs.

I agree... Neko is doing a lot of work for the east coast scene that will bring a lot of additional exposure to his sponsors...

They’re all super talented, and I think they’re all just getting started. I think Neko’s value should be up there because of windrock and how involved he is with east coast mtb in general. He’s an approachable guy, who’s promoting the sport in ways that include all different levels of riders. He has a bigger reach than just his WC results.

1.4 for a 3 year deal would be inline with what I've heard... I doubt he would ask that for one year... He knows he would be out of work...

I think most teams just hope to break even at best... but, there is marketing and product development value to the team... Santa Cruz was smart in letting the guys pick up individual clothing sponsors.. Let the riders find a little more money ...

I don't think it was YT that cut Aaron and Neko, but I'm thinking it was something between them and Martin Whitley.. Unless YT said they were cutting back what they were willing to spend and those are 2 big checks no longer getting signed.. I still can't see the two of them on Intense.. I heard the price Gwin...

I don't understand how Brayton is off Hope ”for sure”. I believe he also keeps doing his thing and Nukeproof only provide frames and what not. Also, I understand that, besides the Rachel skipping an event thing, there was bad blood boiling already? Regarding Hope going bigger, does anyone still remember how small of a company Hope actually is? I believe it'sgreat that they are doing the kind of support they already do!

I don't think too many people in the industry are surprised... Timing was bad... Needs to be more consumer orientated... Let the consumers see, touch, and ride the stuff ...

Still betting on Trek... If the major cash injection happened at Intense like was mentioned a few pages back, I would have expected a beef up on the operation side of things before dropping a lot of coin on Gwin...

Remember, as far as Gwin winning being a big win for a potential sponsor.. We are still talking DH bikes... And nobody is selling a ton of those...

That could make sense... Plus, I think Neko with everything he is doing with the East Coast race scene brings a lot more exposure to his sponsors than just his race results...
