Asking more and more money for less visibility to an industry that have less and less.... If PON choice road bike teams and influencers over XCO teams, it's mean XCO is less attractive from a marketing point of view. When brand will shut down road team instead of MTB team (dh or xc), then, i will be happy with warner.

Seat and watch the collapse of the XCO field under Warner administration. Cannondale is not the only world elite team that will stop at the end of this season. If you add the UCI team that can't find the budget to race world cup, this is the collapse. There is no more enough spot to bring young to the top...

Which kind of world cups? For the XCO field, if your team is not on the official list, there is no support, Sram will invite you to take your invoice and contact your local Sram service center for a warranty claim. So much fun when your rider is an elite female racing XCC and the XX Sl cassette have broken...

They just get an XC race bike on the market, my guess will be that an XCO team will race on Yeti bike. Maybe it will not be a full factory team.

What do you mean by trade team and non trade team? In 23, Elite uci team was 11000€ and uci team was 5000€ so if it's 11500 and 5500 in 24, it's not a big increase.

Outside money for the XC field is coming because : - It's an olympic sport : big brand like car, food or luxury easily connect to olympic value and olympic sport. - it's now more and more connected to the road cycling world. - races are easy to understand for spectator and money partner. - There is more and more...
