Calling it now, Thibaut Daprela comes out swinging to start 2022.

The new TR11 being leaked a bit more officially. Skye from Transition posting in his story.

Loic and Finn running the new Cannibal tile in the final tune-up event before the world cup. Big news if they make the jump back to Specialized tires from Maxxis. Regarding the Cannibal, Gwin had said the Butcher was one of the best cornering tires but lacked braking power vs. DHR2. This new tread is DHF/Butcher with an added DHR2 braking block. Interesting feature is that the side knobs are staggered. Unlike their other treads. It also has the Minion hooked side knobs--probably to satisfy Finn. Adds braking power while cornering.

From Kerr's Brioude LSD...

In any case Cero worked on optimisations of the VPP and thus Intense lately hasn't been running the patented VPP system, but their own adapted JS link. As to why SC would be more successful? More money and personnel to develop the bikes compared to Intense?

Assymetric tyres look so weird!

while I agree on the looks, Gwin covered his own up as it was a Trek Session. ;-)

First post. Somebody mentioned "I'm not an engineer but" I are engineer, and our FEA says

Literally two posts apart: "but at least it is better looking than the M29." "Shame, since that Cero m29 was one of the best looking bikes of the last 10 years" Beauty is in the eye of the bee holder, or something like that I guess.

I can see why Gwin covers his up. Not exactly a looker. Shame, since that Cero m29 was one of the best looking bikes of the last 10 years.

Shout out to PHcross for the rendering. Not bad at all given what you had to work with.

Hot off the press, more details of the Intense prototype

Looks quite similar to the Cannondale Jekyll layout. With the exception that the front half of the rocker is hidden and the frame surrounds more of the shock on the Jekyll.

seth sherlock's prototype intense from windrock today.

Steber is hiiiggghhh

I'm not at all an e-bike advocate but looking at what they did doesn't really bother me. It's basically a sentinel with a motor. I could be wrong but I'm assuming that there wasn't a huge amount of cost involved in the design. It seems like all these manufacturers are hopping on the ebb boat because it makes them a shit load of money. If they are able to make some cash off this thing and dump it into still making sweet bikes, and paying cool riders, and making cool videos, then it seems like some pretty sound logic.
