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

The Boomer World Tour. Because everyone else is too poor.

Since I did Trans Madeira two years ago and Trans Nomad this year... Please no. These races are an experience first and foremost, keep it the way it is. The fees have gotten insane (2650 eur for Stone King Rally...), but still, it's an experience. Of course you race there, but it's more about experiencing new locations, food, terrain and meeting people you otherwise would never meet.

Wishful thinking: Trans (Madeira, Stonekingralley, BC, Sierranorte,…) become a world tour in 2025 and will be known as Enduro Marathon… riders truth series.

Nah dude. It just isn't funny. Neither the original post or your response. Saying as much isn't being "woke", and the need to bring up being anti-"woke" every time the majority of reasonable people deem something inane is the most unintentionally ironic "snowflake" behavior. I know you don't want to be a snowflake. Back to rumors please. Kade to join Deathgrip on the ultimate free-racer squad.

Any comments relating to the sexual orientation of a rider in the Team rumor thread is just childish. Keep it on topic

Reese and Loris both wearing 6D helmets on instagram. I wonder if the nonsense with Kade really did kill the 100% deal 😂 Also regarding all of these “outside sponsorship” deals I’d bet my lunch that most of these are just product deals in return for a few social media posts. A couple of athletes getting a car for a year from a local dealership is a long way from the “big outside sponsorship dollar” that keeps coming up.

The Specialized Gravity team are sponsored by Specialized clothing. Assume he is free to ride any brand he wats for moto as they Specialized don't do a moto kit.

Push would do themselves a favor if they made a "single overhead" shock with a climb switch at a lower price point. I think the two sets of valving sounds good on paper but most people get confident with how one set of valving works for all types of gravity trails and end up using the other set as a climb mode anyway.

i'll bet my bikes that we won't ever see a yeti factory team on SRAM/Rockshox since they 're pretty close to fox.

Websites also need outside advertising to not be so beholden to the industry. You can't review the products you are also advertising...

Yea, I think the likelihood Gwin is on Yeti (frames, but his own program) is higher than him being on Frameworks frames. ... Wow, $4,000 for Frameworks DH frame w/out a shock. Ouch. But I suppose there are 100 people who have that kind of cash and want a (standard FSR deign) DH frame for the boutique-ness of it.

Heavy sleuthing, with timestamped youtube link—thank you for your service!

Heres the thing, and I'm not trying to be a smartass here. People, are different, and, like different things. Thats really the end of. Maybe a "helper" or "progressive" or fanfriggindangled" spring is a great idea for some people, on some bikes, on some terrain, with their own style. Also "Dude" is a pretty confrontational way to start a comment, on a thread about rumours and innovation. Its all cool man, maybe someone takes that idea, uses current tech/manufacturing/packaging and makes the next greatest thing. We dont want to miss out on that do we?

I run marketing for FSA Americas and can confirm, it's rough. Had to shed some tears the last few days.

I'd take everything on that other site with a grain of salt. They seem to work on at least a week of delay maybe more. Danny said that quote quite a while ago now. I seem to remember reading it at least two weeks ago somewhere else.
