Funding himself was a bit of an extreme comment. Didn't he / the team buy SRAM components for themselves when it all began?

I don't think Gwin will be going to a factory team, the setup he's got is pretty perfect. If he is moving on I bet he's currently testing the different frames available ( GT, YT, Norco etc) Once he's decided on the frame of choice, he'll either fund the frames himself or do a deal with the manufacturer. Thoughts?

More what I was getting as is that a current junior world champ has a better chance of getting a podium than a junior silver medalist from about 10 years ago!

In the next 3-4 years I can see the WC DH becoming similar to Formula One. Only elite top 20/30 riders at each event (chosen by teams instead of UCI points) Qualifying returns to normal and timings will fit better for TV. With less riders the track will be in better condition, less expensive to run (maintenance, logistics?) This could...

A few questions. 1. At 50 seconds "We had to bring in a 29er DH bike" Why? because 29ers are dominating DH? Is the demand there? 2. After long, low, slack and 29" what's next? 3. Flipchips / adjustable geo, do average riders tweak this at all?

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think Martin is the Team owner and he approached YT to be the frame supplier. I see it similar to the MS team, how it was MS - intense, MS- Evil, MS - Mondraker etc.

Gwin to a bike that looks like a session, is the MOB property of YT? So for example if he left the YT and the mob and went to GT. Would it be Gwin, Martin and a new rider? Or would Angel and crew move too?

Fairclough appears to be the only Scott rider without any photo's of the new Ransom. Did Scott not send one as he's leaving soon?

Aaron Gwin to Monster Energy Kawasaki. Eli Tomac to HRC Honda. HRC Honda debuts the carbon fiber RN02 “Dick in a Box” DH rig. Justin Timberlake and Andy Samberg rejoice. Sam Hill to Tour de France Moviestar Team/Canyon; wins 2020 tour on flats, manuals most of the descents in the Pyrenees, doesn’t really see what the big deal is.

There's probably only 20 people on the whole site who have access to any actual teams and potential rumours. The rest is all hearsay and analysing random videos and Instagram posts.
