Fair cop, I got that wrong. I saw Martin with the Bell helmet and a 100% t-shirt, then Wyn in a 100% hoody and just assumed Alps was gone. As for Brook, true, had forgotten about Laurie on Fox. And for Gwin, it could very well be described by the relationship Intense have with Parts Unlimited (who own Thor). They've...

The other point here that a lot are ignoring is that when you're on RS, you're pretty much on Sram brakes. Now, Sram brakes are absolutely fine and dandy for most of us average joes. But at the very, very top level? Rumour has it, not everyone is happy with the stopping power.

This team is like many others on the circuit, an independent outfit with a frame sponsor. Specialized also make kit, but they don't wear it on the team. I'm not quite sure of your point here Wink Loic for sure has leverage, but you're thinking that he's dealing with Spesh. He isn't. Spesh are simply paying a cheque for the...

Always think it's so cool they don't have a tyre sponsor. Gives them so much more freedom, for arguably the part of the bike which can have an enormous impact on performance depending on the different conditions.

Hmmm, fundamentally, I disagree with all of your comments here. Road bikes, in reality, haven't really changed in the last decade or two.

So, let's pick apart what you've said. 1) "It's almost unlimited what they can...

jamesdunford Added a comment about press release Fox Racing Launches Spring 2019 Mountain Bike Collection

The disappointment here is real. Some of those designs look like they were completed in about 12 minutes. They have always had a really strong MTB collection, but this is so poor. Think I'll be running a Fox Moto jersey for this year instead.
