With talk about Danny doing his own thing/team and Athertons buying a defunct company to start their own brand and Gwin basically investing in Intense, could we see someone setting up a team with non-frame-related sponsor (gear and outside sponsors) with a relatively big budget and get someone to design and build a bunch of one-off, proto style bikes and make dunno, a new frame specifically for each track or like Nico used to do it, designed around the world champs track? Considering what Barelli said about the Grim Donut and the possible performance of it in Chile, it could...

I definitely think you are missing a bike... But solid review nonetheless, really enjoyed that! Although I think you went halfway on this. You wanted to do a back-to-back, strict comparison of the bikes. Well bike makers don't make the parts, so why would you have different parts on each bike? If you wanted to do a 'different' review and properly review each bike back-to-back I personally think you should have had the same part spec(mainly wheels/tires, brakes, suspension, cockpit.) Then you really find out which 'bike' is the best, as in rear suspension feel/geo. And then you can add...

Awesome job Vital. Pretty quickly, you begin to realize how hard a test like this is to do. I think you did a great job. As others have suggested, each reviewer using the same wheels/tires could be a good equalizer.

This is great, love the new format, very informative and also very entertaining, If ever there is a plan to do new category, may i suggest testing the crop of new steel full sus bikes, this category i think is the hardest to get a demo thus would really benefit this review format. Can't wait for the next batch and racing coverage.
