That’s the DAMN truth. But you’re not a sociopath. Flossmann seems like the kind of guy who’d absolutely balk at releasing these riders.

Wouldn't withholding pay, travel expenses, support, etc. be breach of contract from YT and an easy out for riders to find something new without having to be "released"? (I get we don't have the details of the contract, however it seems like all of those things would be a given in return for a rider representing you)

i would guess that there may be some concern about breach of contract if they signed to another team without being officially released from yt given the uncertainty of the brands future. i'm with you 100% that they've been put in an extremely poor situation not only not getting paid, but also potentially having to self fund the remainder of their season. If the rumors in the PB post shared by krabo83 are true that they are footing their own travel expenses, then it would be a really bad look for YT to leave their team in this kind of...

Stoked to watch the ladies send it, last year’s contest was insane!

Saw on IG that Dak picked up the win at the US Open today.. Considering how hard his recovery has been, it was good to see him win.. Maybe give him a bit of a boost going into Lake Placid and MSA..

I was just checking to see if anyone has talk talk about Jack Moir, but it seems like you are the only asking about him. It is weird he hasn't been mentioned. Talented racer who has some injuries the last two seasons, but makes killer content and Moi Moi TV clothing I own several pieces. So he should be a hot commodity this off season. While I am talking Enduro, I know Chris Ball kinda left it out in the doghouse. There was a time that it was great. I know it can't be broadcast, but they did a great...

comment, from pinkbike… if it‘s true, oh boy!

Tough scenario all round, the 3 riders that sound like they've already got something lined up will be good but it sounds like the staff have been screwed over as well . Not sure if anyone has mentioned Jack Moir yet ? On paper a great signing for any brand but it doesn't seem like there is too many options floating around Enduro at the moment.

Vali, just herself, as a team, has enough points to be in the top 15. So just by signing Vali, you're guaranteed a spot in the wcdh circuit as long as she's on your team for the next couple years.

Dak to Gwin Racing. Aaron has made no secret he wanted Dakotah a couple years ago when he started up, and they ride a lot together so maybe now’s both their chances.

Kinda wild that Yeti is ranked that high. Digging into it, most of their points came from Cami who is retiring. Also amazing that she's earned nearly as many points as Bruni this year (1105 vs. 1126). I bet they go shopping for a replacement top 10 rider.

Luke has made every final except one this year. The Jewett brothers just signed this year, most likely on 2 year contracts. Dane is first year elite and Jakob has been injured for a chunk of the season. Should be interesting when the new team rankings come out tomorrow. All of points where on the table at worlds, points to 60th place in elite. Wouldn’t be surprised to see Giant move past a few teams as all 4 of their racers scored points.

He's probably been good to help develop the bike, too...

Has any one other that Gwin on Gwin racing been to any world cups? If not, it's pretty impressive he's pulling in as many points as other whole teams.

My understanding is that Mondraker won't be on Sram next year. Apparently, it won't be like how Commencal Muc-Off had a transition year to full kit. Find out for sure at Hardline Tasmania or while Ronan does 900 laps in New Zealand. The final team standings will make for some potentially really interesting moves come October. Some big names are sitting out of the top 15 right now and looking at relying on Wild Card status for 2026. 1 COMMENCAL/MUC-OFF BY RIDING ADDICTION 544 2 CANYON CLLCTV FACTORY TEAM 516 3 YT MOB 456 4 ORBEA / FMD RACING 420...

There isn’t really a jr available that’s an upgrade though. Asa is with frameworks for a couple more years, Max C isn’t going to let the Alran brothers walk after they’ve been coming up through the Commencal program. I imagine Yeti will keep Tyler Waite and could afford him with Cami retiring. That really just leaves Oli Clark and he’s with MS and no sign he’s going elsewhere. Those 5 have been the most consistent at showing they will step and be a threat to qualify next year. There’s been glimpses from other juniors throughout the season but nobody else...

Vali’s contract was reported to be among the biggest ever, man or woman. She deserves every last cent of it. Carry on.

There might be a 15 percent reason why a Spanish company might be rethinking it's USA based business 😁 Daks a great rider and has made an impressive comeback but to play devil's advocate and assuming it's contract renewal time at Mondraker , Pinky looks like he could crack on and is still young and Dunne has won you 2 world cups so you'd probably want to keep them , so do you re sign Dak or do you look at those junior results and think blimey those kids are fast let's get one of those guys on a 5...

There is a growing scene here. While things were regressing about 12-15 years ago, the last 7+ have seen major growth. We went from zero bike parks to five (two government-funded), loads of trail centers, a few "official," but most not so official, and government-funded pump tracks. The number of riders has been increasing, yet the mountain bike race scene has been dying. But that's more of an issue with event organizers seeing gran fondos as exponentially more profitable. Riders would love to have a proper race series again, rather than just a few events a year, and this is...
