He said on the podcast that he's "going racing" next year but can't reveal anything before January 1st.

Hi. A mate said it would be worth posting this on here. I was out riding in the forest of dean at the weekend with my mates, and spotted a guy riding with some strange ass brakes. I couldn't see cables running up to the bar. I tried to get a quick photo, but this was all I could manage. Maybe ABS or wireless brakes?!

Thank you! I’m a big fan of Shimano 12 speed and have used the XT Cassette/XTR Chain with AXS on my personal bike for the last two years now as I’ve had issue with the Shimano derailleurs clutches and cages. I would say Transmission is smoother overall and shifts slightly better under load which I didn’t think was possible but it’s definitely splitting hairs.

Is there a per-cog micro-adjustment in this or are they still claiming "their engineers think it's not important"?

Jaded by years of analyzing mountain bikes claiming to reinvent the wheel, it’s not often we (Vital editors) find ourselves jaw dropped over a new bike. But when Scott launched their reimagined Spark last year, we could not stop admiring its futuristic design and next-level integration. And before you rush to the comments, we know the design mirrors countless similarities to frames from Scott-owned Bold Cycles. We daydream about their bikes, too. What makes the new Spark so exciting is Scott’s willingness to divert from their long-standing, World Cup dominating design and commit to such a bold new design (we...

There was a question about mullet yokes on an Enduro in tech rumors so figured I'd drop something in here that is related that it brought to the front of my mind. When looking at leverage curve, there are a few things you can plot leverage as a function of that make sense: wheel position (vertical in travel), shock stroke, and total length of shock and shock yoke (if it has a yoke). For my purposes I'm usually doing shock stroke because I'm not playing with overall length of shock or shock yoke as a variable. When it comes to...

Air springs are absolutely affected speed/frequency and adiabatic compression, especially going from very low speeds around 5mm/s up to 75mm/s. This plot is of a DVO Topaz at 100psi and damper removed @ 25, 75, 125 and 254mm/s but didn't have a lower speed run which was a shame because the most change is at those very slow speeds. Bear in mind your shock is under 75mm/s around 50% of the time you are riding! Also important to note that most spring testers use a fixed speed which is simultaneously too fast for pure isothermal compression but not fast enough...

I'm at work, a colleague comes over to me.... he see's me concentrating really hard. He says "oh you must be doing something important, I'll come by later" Little does he know I'm trying to figure out these cryptic team rumor illustrations about dudes riding bikes. Bravo good sir, carry on. This is what this thread is about.

dont know why but I just can't see Dak or Pinkerton on Mondraker, MS Intense makes more sense to me.

I'm not sure I believe the rumors about Dak Norton and Ronan Dunne on Unno. It seems highly unlikely. Unno doesn't strike me as the kind of company who could afford a DH race team if even brands like GT have to start slashing the budget. Additionally, they don't even have a DH-bike as of right now.

The naming convention was determined decades ago. Motorized pedal bikes were called mopeds, full human powered bicycles have and always will be bicycles.
