For riding steeps, I don't think 27.5 will go away for anyone remotely average height. Getting your rear buzzed by a 29er can be scary, I can imagine getting circular sawed by a 30.5/32 would be worse.

No qualms from me if yall wanna spend your money on 30.5 but this does have me concerned for 27.5 rear wheels. I spent years and multiple bikes on full 29 and now years and multiple bikes on mullet and just prefer the smaller rear wheel, even on short travel bikes. I’m out here for the turns, not for speed and “efficiency”

Possibly, Benny seemed to have a little resurgence and Ethan has had moments of brilliance. Im hoping Benny just needs a little confidence back, Ethan doesnt hit the deck and Dak just needs more thsn one yr on a bike for it to feel intuitive. It js a french run team and Bouladou should have some confidence going forward and that could only help Jess get her flow back. Theyre both super talented and it'd probably be helpful to work together. Or maybe the bike is shit. They win a few and all of a sudden it's a looker

Only way I’m interested is if I can stuff a 30.5 in my 29 fork. No chance I’m buying any new standards, especially when these goofs launch 2 new sizes at once.

I believe they don't need to sell in other places, as they have a steady and strong footprint in a pretty safe market. Why bother? And I love Charlie, but maybe options were slim. What PON did with GT and now Cannondale pisses me off immensely. By the way, Thömus, do you guy remember when they were some of the few to make dedicated 4X frames on the circuit, things that you could actually buy? Thömus rocks by my accounts. Mx

That one hits hard. Props to her and endless props also to her dad for fighting for his daughter.

SuperFan pass purchased. Honestly I’d support this even if I can’t watch it in real time- I don’t have a better way to give to the sport I love. Time to put up or shut up, everyone who wants good racing and supported athletes.

Was some potential on that track, was great for us non EU / Americans to have a race closer to home to get to experience in person. Would be great if there was a rule that 30% or more of the track had to be different each year for these repeat rounds.

It makes me sad to see such gate keeping from the rest of the world by the UCI. It would be interesting to see them expand a wee bit into the southern hemisphere to allow some of the amazing locals that may not have as much support be able to shine. Is there a fear of some privateer coming out on top without all the bells and whistles? If that it, that is very very sad.

rumors are there could be additional races dropped into the existing calendar (hypothetically a DH in the SLC area and XC in vancouver area, making the last two rounds doubles). let's hope so!

Little birdie told me the SK promoter embazzled money. Government froze payments until investigation is complete. Warner Bros. and even some racers are still awaiting their bag…

One off test in Korea last year and back to the ol' tried and true, hey? I didn't love the Korea track, but wish there were some more new options outside of Europe and NA. That said, stoked that Whistler is closing things out, though.

As an Aussie I have no idea wtf a prairie dog is lol, but in the words of another fine american, Ricky Carmichael, it's "huckabucking" basically getting tossed forward and back in an uncontrolled manner Porpoising is a rapid, repetitive bouncing or oscillating motion that occurs when a vehicle—most notably a Formula 1 car or a motorboat—moves up and down at high speeds

This is a slight derail but I agree. My hot take is that the ride quality of the new Lyrik will never be good enough to justify the weight. The previous one was awesome, and so was the one before that. The fact that is being praised as much as it is, opens the door for the other big dogs to keep beefing up. Current Lyrik is nearly identical in weight to the previous gen 38... The Pike was a quality enduro fork in 2017... Please spec 120-140 fork travel bikes with pikes/non-obese Lyriks/36SLs or even 34's. I'm so sick...
