“ MoscoOne wrote: Katy couldnt fill in her forms properly.“ Making fun of a rider for having dyslexia, particularly when they have very recently addressed publicly that it’s a hard thing for them to be open about due to teasing and bullying, is just truly low behaviour and is not appropriate on this forum or anywhere else. If this is...
Just wanted to say, that on the Trek Factory move to Pirelli, my assumption was that trek are trying to standardise the equipment sponsorship across all of their factory teams - and their men’s and women’s road teams have been on Pirelli tyres for a few years now. Ether that or possibly Pirelli offered some type of deal for sponsorship across all of their teams and there is some kind on OEM deal coming between Trek/Pirelli?

all - cut the petty ebike/non-ebike bullshit in here. battle all you want in a diff thread. if it's not a legit discussion about the bikes or the tech, beat it to somewhere else.

Let's go Brandon is the dumbest work around I have ever heard. If you want to say something just say it, don't act like some grade 3 kid scared to swear in front of their grand parents. Also, saying you'd shoot some one with a 9mm on the internet over your opinion pretty much sums up that you probably shouldn't own a gun and have a problem.

Looks like Pinkbike have a new tech and racing editor, he’ll be testing all the new ‘dope’ ‘gear’ for them from now on I assume!

I've done it to. Just a weird "feature" of vital I guess. Not calling anyone out for intentionally doing it. He has a bot farm for that. We can only ask for benevolence from our cold robotic overlords take over.

Hard disagree on only judging riders form based on dry races. You get to race the track you're presented with, if its hard and wet and your form in those conditions is bad then you do bad, that sucks for the rider but it's really just a lack of skill or preparation in those conditions. You can't say someone is...

I realise that I'm a bit behind on this one, and that it's more of a technical clothing than bike related item, but has anyone else noticed the SevenMX esq tank top and base layer combo the Yeti Factory guys are wearing? It's something that I've wondered about for a while as whether this exact thing would strike a good...
Super interesting question! Do we have a list of the riders that crossed from decent level of moto racing to a successful mtb carrier (thinking at a fairly old age, i.e Gwin)? Off the top of my head I can only think of: Gwin Palmer Reece Wilson Elliot Heap Josh Calson Would be interesting to see a more filled out...

It's still up, and that hasn't been cut or anything so don't think that's the case. It's a very different thing from saying you don't like the bike to a pro racer saying that they didn't move on leaps and bounds with the testing they did, and that there's still a lot of testing to do to get the bike...
