All

Scrap all the rest of the team rumours, this is the only one that matters. Need to get Gofundme together to buy the rights and launch the team.

You’re both welcome to leave at any time, nobody is keeping you here.

i think it's time that you guys start a new dedicated "i hate BK" thread. would spare us all of that nonsense, thx

Aside from them taking over and gutting the core 5.10 MTB and Climbing product lines. But I guess injecting some of that trendy soccer shirt, tracksuit and 2" foam soled running shoe money into the sport could help a few riders.

There’s already different thread for non rumors discussion. Take it there.

start a new freaking thread if you want to talk about that stuff.

What a wild turn of events. I was watching his skiing stories on Insta yesterday and thought to myself that he won't be a pro bike racer again, feeling kinda bad for the dude because he's had such tough luck these last few years, but can swing off of it when on it. Stoked he got a ride for next year and hope he can keep it rubber side down to show the potential he has.

Oakley rode into the game on two wheels, then ghost rode that shit laughing all the way to the bank.

Can't wait to watch Ed Bull Media's shaky ass Instagram live video of the timing board.

LUX does indeed no longer care about it's "legacy sports" marketing. They are investing more into the traditional ball sports here as they try to position Oakley as the next Rayban. They started a build up to the LA olympics in 2024 and that is largely because it is on Oakley's home ground. Blick was the glue that held the cycling program together and when he left so did any care for the sport.

Blick has been gone for a few years. He’s at Shimano now. Even when he was it was a struggle for MTB at Oakley. Golf and the NFL was becoming a priority.

back to Rocky Roads it is

This is why I bought a Burgtec stem and bars. If they support the things I care about I’ll support them. If nothing else, Bryceland and Brage? Respect. Adding Frameworks and the Goodman team just makes me more hyped.

Always has been...

Can we put this to bed? The initial post was obviously referring to the team's base and management, rather than the athletes. Specialized Gravity is run by Laurent Delorme, was formerly the Lapierre Factory team and they have croissants for breakfast.

Good lord this thread is cooked

Well as one of the "Older Crowd"..I am just super bummed at what cutting down the # of people making WC final's did to the sponsorship side. And I get part of it is the industry hurting a ton. But it just seems different this year. Your young, Up and coming..Welcome! Your over 30..We love Ya and what u did..Stop by and say hi! Maybe it's just me..But I would think Minnar saw what was coming, Danny's time might be limited. Gwin better be on game this year. Jack Moir U would think be offered a decent ride for DH...

ENOUGH BK-LIFE-CHOICES TALK IN HERE.

I would love to see Dak with FW. I think there is a decent chance he heads to Intense. Honestly would love to see him leave Mondraker (no reason). I hope Specialize puts some female riders on the team. Pivot needs a serious refresh. I hope BK has a great season but even if he did they need more. Norco also needs a team refresh too. Would love to see them pick up a 10 top male. Also - I was at Placid, it was great. Watched the reply and I thought it was the worst filming of the year...

simple solution for that -> just don‘t watch his content! and now please back to team rumors before this starts to be a BK-bashing thread again.
