in which scenario in your twisted mind can a fast racer NOT race a world cup?

Bootleg Canyon is the equivalent of a cheese grater, but for humans.

Rumor confirmed!

Loic posted this on his insta. Is he moving to Sellotape, 3M, Gorilla tape? Wild!

He’s got the chain, an Ochain, MRP chain guide. All with fresh bolts ready to go for them. It’s not unheard of to go heavy on the trolling, but he’d have to go buy some of that stuff just to post this photo. I’m going to say my Zerode guess might be wrong and maybe he’s on Ari.

Only one brake rotor visible in bulldogs bike build post on Instagram, potential switch to unicycle team? What NZ based unicycle brands are there?

Surprised I'm not seeing anyone mention SRAM's post regarding Commencal/Muc-off's full roster. Nice to see Maples still on there and the Alran's. Commencal saying PomPom, Maury and Loris are on fresh 3 year deals. Stacked team

People assume way too much about gearboxes and belts. Do not judge until your ride one. The reports you read about the drag or gripshift appear to be mostly from people who haven't ridden a gearbox bike and are just repeating what they heard. I have a gearbox bike with a belt drive, 155mm cranks. Full suspension with idler and tensioner. So lots of added "drag" beyond the gearbox itself. It's a big enduro bike that gets used for bike parks and shuttle laps too. I've beat it to hell and back for the last 3 years, broken frames, bent...

They are also substantially bigger than you'd think. The track width of a 6100 truck is usually about 92 inches, a stock '23 Raptor is 74" inches. (The widest year) and a new Tacoma is only 63". Trophy trucks are a strange breed, they could be substantially lighter if they wanted but it's actually slower. Look at Ultra 4 4400 class cars, they are usually almost 1000 pounds lighter (or more) and in some ways are more capable than a trophy truck, but they aren't faster. Desert races aren't won accelerating, they are won maintaining speed, the heavier truck has...

My understanding is that the "touchdown" feature on the Rockshox Vivid rear shocks is a simplified version of this.

Dunno to me the feel is less " It feels like some people decided to start a thing after a good ride and a couple beers." And more "vulture capital cash grab by churning out more "same, same, but different label" " marketing.

I guess with DNIS brakes you skip steps 2 & 3 and go straight to neglect?

Freudian slip typo in the bio 😂 "de sigh"... 😑

Something just seems a bit fishy about the Cast brand... I'm not buying into the picture of these top riders joining forces to come out with just this. :D

Lemme guess... 9⁰ Backsweep and 5⁰ upsweep too?

Cast went live now with their lineup of stems and handlebars. Strong list of riders on their rooster, but probably the least innovative new mtb company i`ve seen. Anyone up for a "38mm!!! high rise" handlebar? Read all about it: https://castmtb.com/

That’s just a stock bike
