A lot of confused people posting in this thread. IFR for the last few years has been owned by Aaron and run by Todd Schumlick. Intense is no longer sponsoring the team, but the team will likely continue with a new headline sponsor. This will not be Frameworks. Neko has Martin Whiteley on board to run Frameworks team with Neko, Angel and Asa signed. Dak is on a new team, not with Aaron. This may be MS Intense, which used to be MS Mondraker.

He did say he wanted to race, I just got the impression it wasn’t going to be WCs but I could be way wrong and I hope I am. I live watching Gwin race his bike. Fortune enough to meet and say hi the last couple years, hopefully again this year

Well, I understood it like that the team ceased to exist, not that just the head/main/title sponsor changes.

Don’t think Gwin will be racing WCs from what I got from his interview in the Downtime podcast. He was asked if he’d do commentary full time and basically said if I’m going to be at WC events, I’m going to want to be racing. To me that sounded like he wasn’t going to be at the WCs this season...

I am really hoping for a barrage of announcements of good hearted riders on good hearted teams. After all of the 'goodbye" posts, I just really want that.

re: canyon (and possibly other big brands)? it's an XC olympic year. could the big dumps and a brand like canyon be for XC talent at the olympic level? i have no insight or idea, but have to imagine olympics are at the forefront of budget talks for brands w/ an xc bike. re: danny - as mentioned above, he has a very solid social and youtube presence. to say he's "kinda invisible" speaks to the way the system works IMO. he's not an over-the-top personality on camera or vlogger with click-baity/controversial subject matter, so he's not recommended by the...

A representative from Norco Factory Racing at MSA mentioned a pause in new bikes for 2024 as they move through inventory with plans to update models with technology from the race program in 2025. Haven’t heard anything about layoffs at Norco recently Funny though, found a PinkBike article about Norco shutting down DH and XC teams in 2023, and as...

Ollie Lowthorpe no longer with Norco according to his IG post this morning. Maybe Norco is freeing up more cash for the GOAT ?? Hmm 🤔

Only a few more weeks of anxiety lol 😂 had a dream last night that Devinci brought back its DH race program, with Finn and Jackson riding Chainsaws, maybe 1 day

Must be a recent decision by SC if true. Laurie posted a vid on IG just 6 days ago riding his SC v10 tagged SC and Syndicate along with RedBull UK however I did see him grumpy in the pits in MSA but that could be health related. Always saw him with BK in the Pivot tent , never with...

Just saw an Instagram post from Intense Factory Racing featuring a video of Dak. I hope he sticks with Intense Factory and I think Gwin will just be team owner maybe team manager too. Or just be a team owner and just focus on his new bike park he just purchased and is expanding

Also odd that I don’t think we’ve seen a post by Laurie or Nina either. Saw a post from Jackson, thanking Greg n what not.

Hey all, just wanna say this is my first ever post here. Been a reading the forum since after MSA this year. Some much good chatter 🙂 This recent confirmed news of Greg leaving Santa Cruz Syndicate is nuts. I really thought we’d see him 1 last year with SC then retire. And the rumours of him signing with Norco...
