Conti Xynotal? Been running it rear last summer. Compared to Kryptotal it rolls faster, but a little less grip in loose terrain, but on hardpack etc the Xynotal is better.

Aron Gwin said something really smart in a podcast (don't remember where) regards the marketing side of DH. From memory he said viewers/fans of DH own around 3,2 bikes, and viewers/fans of XC and road owned around 1,5 bikes each (in the ballpark,). By that it means 1 fan of DH is likely to buy more bikes from said company...

Let's have a round up, shall we? What's confirmed, what's still hanging? As usual, I don't want to put in any work or time whatsoever, so if somebody else could just go ahead and whip those two lists up for us, that'd be great. TIA.

I love what you're doing here! Check out some of our XC and Enduro races this year! We're USAC sanctioned and will be teaming up with Downhill Southeast this year on a few events. Going to be an epic year for sure!

I have always struggled to find a "correct" setup on all my bikes. Im 176cm, short legs, and 181cm reach. On my current bike, Canyon Strive 2022, reach 480 and 634 stack, 760mm wide bars, i felt the bars was way to low. 20mm spacers and 30mm rise. Changed the bars 40mm rise, wich was better, and then bought som...

I Just find it really strange that a factory team and/or RB doesn't have a couple of spare helmets for each rider. A small crash is enogh to damage/scratch a helmet. But then again, saving money everywhere possible?

The sales would likely be the same, or actually higher. Bevause when people have good experiences with brands/products they will recommend them and use it again. And when increasing the QC, and therefore less warranty claims, they would make more money per product, and could potentially reduce the cost of the existing product. I can just talk for my self...

QC is the place where things can get way better. The number of failed products, warranty claims and waste is to high. If the products where made better, prices "should" go down, less time of the bike, and mother earth would be happy.
