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 you have Paul the Punter with more sponsors than the SC Syndicate and he can't bleed a set of brakes or Jump a double so what do I know lol

Jack managed to land himself in maybe the most talent rich bicycle racing manufactures line up ever, to be riding on a Canyon is the greatest opportunity ever for him and maybe get to race with MVDP that’s priceless. You have read the stories that Matthieu wants to try racing EWS and just maybe, Jack might be leading the way for that maybe, again priceless.

i'm looking forward to them teaming up on some videos.

I remember Kathy said she would hire Nina in one of the videos at the end of the season but that she is not the (only) decision maker. Can't remember if it was a Syndicate video, or a Cathro or what else, but I remember she was pretty enthusiastic about Nina. Too bad, because I am pretty disappointed that girls like Nina are not picked up by a factory team. Nina seems to be a good fit and pretty marketable in my book. Not bashing on SC specifically, I can think of a few other powerhouses which could/should step up...

Thomas Lapeyrie winning the marketing this year. -------------------------- Following the announcement by Thomas Lapeyrie of his premature ousting from the pro enduro race circuit, the large number of reactions and support gave birth to the idea of Rider.404. Born from a “system error”, this rider exists solely thanks to the immense solidarity from the passionate enduro community. The first that come forward with support were the pro riders, they themselves often faced with the offseason rider's market where sometimes injustice reigns. That’s why a large number of them responded positively to this project: giving a little bit of their...

They are French speakers... le lubrifiant is french for lubricant... when writing in a second language, its not far off to get to "lubrificants" lubrificants lubrificate your chain and stuff... like to make it become lubrified...

Redbull helmet. Greg Callaghan?

Jack Moir to Canyon to substitute Flo Nicolai? It would make sense, since the team manager is standing next to him. Also there racing department is in Nice, which is close to the race location.

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I don’t get whole “Jared Graves watch 2020.” The dude is legit fast and talented, but I find myself unable to root for him and Richie due to the lack of an explanation for their failed tests. While Maes’ situation was likely different, I thought he handled the situation admirably.

It's interesting that Canyon lists YouTube as a discipline. Not saying it's a bad thing, just interesting.

Cube action team used Newmen wheels last year.

I think Graves is with Cube now. Intense is another option maybe?

I knew I read it here on Vital & I know I can screw up a detail or 2 but I knew I read it today The team is proud to say we’re continuing with all the components and partners we were riding with in 2019. The team only says goodbye and a special thank you to Vallnord for his support over the last three years.
