9/16/2025 2:05pm Damn I was hoping for a hotly contested Snow Bike Worlds with lots of big names fighting for points.

9/16/2025 2:01pm Graphs aside, 6.06kg for full power and 900wh battery is really good. The DJI is 6.26kg and 800wh. Levo gen3 is 7.55kg for 840wh.

9/16/2025 11:03am Dammit, I looked there first but couldn't find them. The UCI site is horrible to navigate. Makes sense now that I think about it that it's more than just the World Series that counts.

9/16/2025 9:37am Because I dug around the UCI site before realizing Team Standings were on the World Series Site, here is a link to the team standings. https://www.ucimtbworldseries.com/standings Pivot with just 8 points.

9/12/2025 12:14pm So not to clog up the rumours thread. Rocky has just released a firmware upgrade for the Powerplay SL, a boost from 65mn to 75nm torque and 500w to 700w peak power. https://bikes.com/en-ca/blogs/stories/firmware-update-rocky-mountain-e-…

9/12/2025 11:49am I don't think Sram is going to be going towards any standardized e-bike motor mount. https://www.pinkbike.com/news/sram-patent-shows-ultra-compact-cycloidal… https://www.pinkbike.com/news/spotted-sram-emtb-motor-prototype-at-cran… https://ep1.pinkbike.org/p5pb28602353/p5pb28602353.jpg

9/8/2025 4:12pm Seems odd that the rest of their stuff is Canfield CBF..then they do a ti crab link??? Ti CBF would be on brand. This looks like they just had some rando Asian factory knock up catalog ti crab link.

Big couple weeks for Squamish riders with Elly Hoskin also getting the jersey in Enduro. That’s 5 now for the local riders.

8/27/2025 1:02pm I can't really see Rec Sites and Trails giving a permit to build Hardline on Crown Land in the S2S. Maybe they could find a way to build something in the AlpX heli tenure, but again that needs approval as it's not private land. I'd say it's in the dreamers stage but happy to be proven wrong.

Lol, wtf am i getting dragged into this for. But gives me a better idea of who went to the hassle to make a fake linkedin a few months ago to sh** talk me there of all places. As far as which US races get points, go to the UCI calendar on the uci website and filter down to the mtb races specific to the US (or any country you want). It'll tell you which class it is. Last couple pages of the rule book UCI MTB Regulations will tell you how many points that event is worth. earlier in...

8/27/2025 11:02am Seriously. That deserves an apology for tagging the wrong person in the call out.

8/27/2025 10:07am What are some numbers for the French events? In 2023 Crankworx claims 300,000 over ten days. https://www.biv.com/news/hospitality-marketing-tourism/crankworx-2023-f… When I do a google search for "highest uci wc dh attendance" Google AI says it was Fort Bill in 2016 with 20,000 over the weekend. Tourism Whistler says that overnight capacity is 30,000 (matches up to the Crankworx number above). https://www.ucimtbworldseries.com/news/the-whoop-uci-mountain-bike-worl… UCI...

8/26/2025 3:49pm I'll bet that SRAM puts their biggest setup in Whistler, but they likely still have multiple rigs.

8/26/2025 3:23pm Back to the days of NORBA when big players had West Coast rigs and East Coast rigs. Whistler will get the big rigs and Lake Placid will get rented popup tents and bare minimum needed. Anyone know what the current attendance records are? I'd be willing to bet Whistler is going to smash them.

8/26/2025 3:12pm Meh, if someone doesn't know how to beat the S2S traffic game they deserve to be stuck in it. But yeah it's going to be busy.

8/26/2025 3:10pm Hotels and lodges in Whistler are like "WTF just happened, we just sold out bookings for late Sept next year." Stoked to have it coming to Whistler. Sad to see MSA no longer on the list, but 30 years was a good run.

8/21/2025 5:25am Specialized has had more chatter in not releasing new Enduro and DH than they would have had in releasing them. Keep delaying them it keeps the chatter speculation going.
