Other than RR, did anyone on Yeti do as well as Bex last season?

What more could they have asked of her? She performed well.

Top 3 overall. Podiums at multiple rounds. More social media presence. Who knows? They do. Brands expect a ROI, this is especially difficult in sport that increasingly less people watch or care about. She certainly won't alone in not having a ride in '24.

Bex without a ride so far really hope she finds something because she’s a friggin race winner but with the way EDR is being flushed down the shitter by its organizers right now who knows

Really rolling the dice on that one.

What has six faces and twelve edges? Don't get it wrong or I'll tell your friends you blewitt.

Remember UCI is only for rule enforcement, anti doping and legislative work within the cycling disciplines. the change on EDR is purely from WBD Chris ball sold out and killed what he created 💰 💰 💰 2025 will be the turning point for MTB racing as we know it

it's honestly hilarious that a complete move to e enduro would even been considered. On race day the e bike races are an extreme side show to the actual race, which in turn is a sideshow to the dh/xc races. no racing fan has ever given a shit about e-bike racing, even with the proliferation of ebikes these days

It's 100% the UCI not wanting to lose the rights to what could very well become a huge race format as more and more people buy mopeds. They are just interested in having the whole pizza rather than fighting for a slice. If it doesn't pan out... Fuck it, and move on just like what they are doing to the EDR currently. If you can't find the answer to why something is being done... Follow the money and you will find your answer. Most national level Enduro racing is already leaps and bounds better racing than the EDR events because...

Spent the weekend with a high level US Pro rider and got a little insight into the Yeti DH development. 2025 looks to be the target date for a full blown WC DH program.

I just don't get this move to all E-EDR. I don't know anyone who is asking for this...

can 90% confirm no EDR in 2025 as it will all be E-EDR. DH will be top 15 teams only. Fees went through the roof to register for '24. A trade team is now 11,500 Euro and a non-trade team will be 5500 Euro.

Not my fault if vital on the phone sucks and didn’t upload the pic, anyway, there they are

galfer doesn't make brakes?

That's right up there w/ Cat 3 masters roadies doping to win their local Weds. night crit...

There is a local dude here who uses a stem mounted wahoo, couple of GPS watches and an iphone and records them all on strava, each will have discrepancies which will ultimately give him one device with a best time (usually the phone) There was a rumor that on one trail, there is a tricky chute/corner at the end, he literally took the wahoo off and threw the thing to the end of the segment to skip the feature lol

Exactly. I would like to see the breakdown of the numbers for off-road use (mountain biking) vs commuting of those e-bikes.

Sorry to dampen your enthusiasm, but can someone above explain to me how you think FrameWorks would be able to pay Gwin anything close to his value? We are talking about "the million dollar" man here, at least a handful of seasons ago...

I mean how could it NOT be AG? ...I'll check roots and rain but I'm pretty sure Gwin satisfies the conditions (elite men and "been on a podium"*) ! M.Whiteley is managing the team, talking long term, N.America, has a long successful relationship with Gwin, it's just too damn perfect. *the way he said that was perfectly understated..."been on a podium"...this dude RUMORS! Great podcast. Great guest: go listen to the Downtime eps with Whiteley from last year if you haven't, they were great. His WC1 / WC2 format sounds fantastic. Guaranteed TV time for the top 20 from the...

Madonna V3 just dropped, looks rad! Like the V2 offers lots of adjustability. https://raawmtb.com/en-us/pages/madonna-v3
