Metallier isn’t on the Cube World Cup team, I’d expect if they took on the Atherton it would be as it is now for him i.e. he would be completely separate. Cube is an interesting thought though, Gee has been hanging out with Greg Calllaghan the last couple of seasons, so maybe there’s a link?

Syndicate on Raceface next year? It could also be someone else’s bike, or that they’re just testing (but this also means 29” DH rims from RF), but Fox own RF and already sponsor the Syndicate so it could make sense...

It looks like Charlie Harrison, Kade and Reece Wilson are all hanging out at the moment, and the bike in the background of the photo above has a Boxxer and what (to me) looks like a Bontrager G5 front tyre. That suggests to me that the three of them are going to be on Trek. Gwin hasn’t really been posting...

Photo of the above...

Interesting info on the most recent Downtime podcast... As well as helping organiser travel, accommodation etc. (as she was this season) Tracey Mosely will be moving into an athlete liaison role with Trek next year, and will be working directly with the DH and Enduro teams, including going to World Cup rounds to support the team. That pretty much confirms...

I doubt it’s CRC he’ll be on. More likely I would say is that he’d stay with Hope/Öhlins, but on a Nukeproof frame. That give Nukeproof a well established UK rider on the WC without going to the trouble of setting up a full team, pits, support etc. which would be a big investment as it would have to be...

Interesting if true. Magnus used to be on Devinci, Reece used to be on Unior Tools, Dakota Norton is currently on the Devinci/Unior Factory team, Reece said on the Downtime Podcast that he was going to be on a full factory team with a couple other young guys... Dakota, Reece and Magnus to be the Devinci/Unior factory team next year...

Possibly, but he was on Trek/Unior Tools for a few years, and they had the all black bikes with white logos as their thing at that time so it could just be a hang over from that. Trek does seem likely though. He’s been on their bikes before, has had by the looks of it a good relationship with Trek...

But it was posted by Thomas Ramade no? I’d have thought it was Hugo Frixtalon and Thomas Ramade in the photo, with Thomas Estaque tagged because he was there that day? Could be wrong though.

Reece Wilson was chatting on the Downtime Podcast about his new team for 2019... Apparently a brand that’s been around for a while, on a team with two other (three total) young riders, and full factory support, and a factory (he’s traveling to the factory in December). So... Canyon? (He’s been posting a bit with Troy on insta, and they’re...

Adam Brayton testing a new bike? Looks like his Bell worlds helmet, and was on his SO Meg Whites insta story...

I have to say, I do think it would be cool to see the Mob become Trek Factory Racing (which obviously it basically used to be under Martins TWR team). I’m not sure how that would fit with the Reece Wilson to Trek rumours, but I’d like to see him get a good factory ride next year. FMD to YT...

Vergier said on the La Bresse Wyn Tv that he wouldn’t be making a change for 2019. Could be bluffing, but it’s something!

Hahaha! Yoann Barelli to REDBUTT for 2017.

Reece Wilson on Commençal/100% as well.

Someone new on Trek Factory. Greg Williamson? I believe he did visits the Atherton HQ last off season?

Taylor Vernon on Seven clothing? It looks like it’s the motocross brand too, rather than the Mtb protection brand?

Walker Shaw on a new team?

GMBN Tech posted. I know this has been said before, but it DOES look like Greg may be on a 100% helmet next year...
