ehhh I dunno, she says she waited for Trek to tell her they wouldn't be renewing before putting feelers out, rather than pro-actively looking for a deal whilst under contract. A bold strategy that didn't pay off unfortunately. In racing, no one owes you anything!

This is a reply to Jeff's post, but I won't quote it to prevent a wall of text. Well the UK is going ahead with vaccinations very strongly, but it's a beacon of light in an otherwise very dark world. Worldwide travel is still very much something that is far from easy, so that might play into the decision a lot? Jeff you mentioned 4k cases per day with 66 million inhabitants. In Slovenia (granted, one of the worse-off countries in Europe lately) we have just passed back over 1000 new cases per day on Tuesday (this is a 7-day...

3/31/2021 1:13am Better to run more reliable chains? Luca's crash seems like a horribly unlucky combination of events (chain snaps, chain gets wrapped up in something, all this while doubling-doubling whoops). What type of chains do they use in WC DH at the moment? I believe most riders run 7 speed DH specific groups, but is that with a 7, 10, 11...
Yes, unfortunately not so easy a unified system to report seat position. I'm mostly surprise saddle manufacturers have not stepped up with designs with longer rails out the back to be able to slide the saddle forward an extra few cms.

3/24/2021 1:33am Yeah nothing majorly new I just think they have arrived at the best package on the market: very good and customisable geometry, huge battery, relatively light weight for it's class, visually very nice, most testers seem to love the brose motor. The price is completely bonkers of course, but i also hope they worked on their reliability, a good few...

That’s because many of the brands you mentioned above are still on strict lock downs at this moment.

All of those bikes would have to be very low quality to hit those price points.

3/9/2021 7:29am rileywilllliams ! Woo, I feel like one of those bike sleuths that can map out rear wheel path based on a blurry picture taken of a proto from a gondola 2 miles away.

There was a video a few weeks back of Pierron looking very sharp - leaves Daprela for dead.

3/6/2021 12:17pm I got beat by the Canadian site, but 2nd ranked EWS rider Flo Nicolai had a big crash and got airlifted off the mountain yesterday. Seems it was not as bad as feared, shoulder dislocation injury, hopefully he'll be back competing soon enough.

3/6/2021 12:13pm I ended up following her down during an EWS practice in terrible conditions, she was laughing the whole way down and gave me a high 10 for making it down with her without crashing.

Does anyone buy into this ”self bought” suspension thing? It's an honest question. I see why a downhiller would do it, but a slopestyle rider, who rides stuff super stiff anyway? Why bother? To make a statement? Mx

3/4/2021 12:42am Stretching the definition of team rumours slightly, and stealing from a French forum... Commencal just built their own custom track for testing, looks bonkers good: https://www.instagram.com/p/CL7QWSWCq10/ https://www.facebook.com/benoitcoulanges/posts/1320513931662750 https://www.instagram.com/p/CL7NY4lHNUt/

2/19/2021 1:42am Issue to me is that the DD option is only 70g lighter than DH, so kinda redundant. Either make the DD a touch lighter or make the DH bombproof.

Nice, I have a second set of wheels fully ready to swap out at a moment's notice, in the end I put the heavy tyres on the lights wheels and almost never use the lighter tyre option. They feel fine but I hate having the thought that I should be careful when riding, and really really hate puncturing (haven't taken a spare tube with me in years, or suffered a fatal puncture)

This is the second podcast during which I have spent most of the time wondering are SSpomer and Gordo 2 different dudes or the same person. Can we get a podcast where they interview each other?
