1/21/2025 3:20am A bit of shameless promotion, but hopefully it's relevant. I just put out a podcast episode where me and Alan Milway chat through all the 2025 team moves (confirmed and rumoured). Hopefully it's an interesting watch/listen. https://youtu.be/Mu0JAhGceB8 or https://www.downtimepodcast.com/team-moves-2025/ Clearly this forum gets a mention! Thanks to everyone here who keeps the rumour fire burning, I personally love it!

1/17/2025 3:15am Lets be honest, the difference between tuned boxxer and 40 is negligible, both are absolutely capable of winning races so I doubt performance is the answer, more likely its the money. Also dont forget the current itteration of Commecal team with Pierron and PomPom started on SRAM

1/16/2025 1:02pm As others have said, maybe because they actually think its going to make the difference in winning races and competing? Free shifting, weight distribution, unsprung mass. If one of these teams wins, it doesn't just get them 100k, it buys the team/brand credibility. If gearbox bikes come out of this year with a 2 wins and a few podiums, your...

1/16/2025 8:29am I think there's a bit of both. Gates wants to break into the market so they are doing so via the prize purse. But just because the big teams aren't following suit doesn't mean itsa gimick and all about the money. Some of these larger teams are funded and supported by SRAM and Shimano. They might not be able to...

1/12/2025 10:52am This wouldn’t surprise me. I spoke with his agent on the side of the hill back in snowshoe 2023. He alluded to last year being a bit of transition/test and then Richie would decide what he wanted to do for 2025. Yeti was willing to back whatever he decided.

1/10/2025 11:59am Yes, sorry could have added more. Sounds like he has the "?" lined up, but he was working on release/reveal videos for them. Personally, I think Remy has to be one best sponsorship opportunities in the sport or maybe I live on youtube a bit too much.

12/18/2024 7:26am Yeah, for me its the name and branding. You call its something else and no one makes knockoff accusations. They want people to mistake them for one another, and that's where it crosses the line.

12/2/2024 12:53pm Adventure Stache. Bit more gravely based but I love Payson's Interviews with the more adventurey type riders for the good backcountry stories. I get a bit lost on the gravel racing interviews.

11/4/2024 11:27am Just quickly watching the video and reading the comments: Could they have been looking to thermally isolate the calipers from the pads? As opposed Shimano looking to directly cool their pads?
