With the athletes I coach: I have the majority of the endurance athletes run whoop straps, just to track their sleep and recovery. They are already paying me a bunch of money every month for my listening and observation skills, and I do value an additional metric to look at total load on the athlete enough to ask these folks to subscribe. We use ecg chest straps paired to the athletes power meter head units to monitor and record heart rate info during training and racing. People with “high performance mindset” can and do often push themselves too hard, and...

I was thinking that all last season. If you compare his and Finn's HR either Bruni's a freak or the product is a complete waste of time.

Any chance the UCI prototype rules will force a limited run of frames to be built (BUILD IT SPECIALIZED)? Or have Specialized Gravity and Pivot been given a bit of a free pass in the context of the struggling bike industry?

How did the Team Rumors Thread take a hit, when it was mentioned HERE, that he is going to ride for a company that is named after a place in the USA??? This is actually boosting the Team Rumors street cred! It's not like somebody wrote that in a Pinkbike comment section, where everybody seems to be busy being the first to comment ”looks like a...”. Really now! Mx

that will make a nice fire when the battery burns

Sorta relevant. Bulldog just speaking some facts…

Congrats to Troydon and Mark, that's freaking amazing!! I will have one of their ebikes soon, as soon as they rename the bike co to Trinidad, CO

Stoked for Gwin--definitely didn't see that coming. But for the love of God, stop changing tires--especially to 'off' brands. I thought he was finally dialed in with VEE tires, now to E13. Ugh. Should have just gone Conti or Maxxis to remove another thing he has on his place ('developing' treads for yet another brand). Unless, again, they're giving him part ownership in the brand or a cut in tire sales that he develops. Still though. Guy hasn't ridden in 8 months and now has to learn a new bike and new tires in a couple months while trying to...

Gwin news was definitely out of left field. That random guy hating cascade components from a few weeks ago is gonna be so pissed when he finds out lol.

wow, way to give away the name of the riding spot. what a narc.

canyon strive:ON ebike is out. 5799 and 7999 25mm gaps in reach across sizes

holy hell did anyone see this coming? With all the speculation floating around, I don’t think crestline has been mentioned even once. great way to put them on the radar for people who haven’t heard of them before that’s for sure

you're right! i didn't look down the list that far. edited posted. dorval adds 5 riders to the commencal squad. that's a lot of DH bikes just to support their world cup squad!

I was thinking the same. When you look at the logos from AG Racing an Transition. Could be...
