Thanks to our trigger-happy friends over at that other site, the cat is already out of the bag, but yeah - Intense news is now official and the embargo is lifted. Gwin, Neko and Moir. The biggest piece of gear news is the Kenda tires. Didn't see that coming! We've got the full pull with bike comparisons, interviews and more in our feature here - https://www.vitalmtb.com/features/Aaron-Gwins-Size-XL-Intense-M29-with-… they're all running XL frames, here's how they compare:

I still cant believe the Seahawks didnt run the ball...

Onza had a 29" tire for Gwin already

Unior to AB Inflatables. Bold move, Cotton.

you forgot jack moir mate so not all american.

Maybe, but it’s not a M29. Unless that’s a 220mm rotor.

Look at supercross, looks like they're all wearing skinsuits now. Not having stuff fluttering around while you're hauling ass probably just feels better, too.

Just that the ol' baggy moto style feels quite outdated by now. No need for sausage-skinsuits, but modern slim fit looks great for racers.

175cm, size L + 4mm of reach (don't see where a reach adjuster could be of +/- 21mm but okay. Maybe Reece speeks "reach at the bar" and uses a angleset). Looks like a limo on the paper, BUT the Session is freakingly short (436mm of reach for 619mm of stack -about 446mm at 600mm stack- in standard size L) so in the end that's like he is on size M rig. End of the geeky-digression, thank you for your attention.

the forum viewers thank you for your service

The rim states that it is a 29er. I see another discussion about a bike coming in this thread...

full commencal / vallnord press release here. https://www.vitalmtb.com/news/press-release/COMMENCAL-VALLNORD-DH-TEAM-… - they're on enve wheels and cockpit, chris king bits and bell helmets. no team rider changes. the coolest part of the PR besides the nasty roost and whips being thrown is seeing the bikes with the stock idler and the modified one. it's just like they did last year, but it looks like they have a cleaner version of the multi-position idler.

Wow! 5 down votes... the sarcasm meter must be broken around here...

bigger shot of flo on the gambler

They are watching us ... ?

I think one of these companies like Trek, Intense, Atherton, Santa Cruz, etc should post on this forum first. Maybe just a half hour or so before it goes public on main page here or PB. Show us some love for our commitment to the speculations and rumors. Clearly we are the deepest invested group of super fans to the brands, riders, and teams news. Return the love companies. Or at least make us feel special for just a few minutes.

Yeah, there are plenty of pictures of him riding in that jersey from last season. Hopefully, nobody in here is actually a detective for their job haha

Miranda Miller and Finn Isles on Iron Horse. Confirmed 100% true!

It's the other way around with Polygon being the owner of Marin the bike dropped over a year ago: https://www.pinkbike.com/news/marin-wolf-ridge-first-ride.html _MK
