No idea what Bryceland said. Something about a swimming pool. Assume he is talking about the weather for the weekend. Consider subtitles.

Maybe Gwin does indeed own a fancy Porsche and maybe it was purchased with money that has nothing to do with mountain biking? All kids who grew up competitively racing motorcycles in Southern California aren't from poor, underprivileged families, are they? Not too many kids racing in the UCI World Cup who grew up on the wrong side of the...

Regardless what Gwin rides in 2016, Lee knew all along... True industry insiders with real info keep their mouths shut. Fringe players like to imply they know more than they do. It's basically the same with every sport.

Specialized sure did. Only after a full season of being off the pace. At some point that first season didn't Gwin try running their trail bike in search of something that would work for him? But then again, Specialized likely doesn't have the resources of an industry giant like YT. I'm American, and a big fan of UCI DH. I'm...

Cool perspective, but remember that since the bikes weren't all in the same front/rear cog combo, comparing chain growth, etc. is pointless.

Lourdes is less than three months away. I'm new to this stuff. Has Gwin changed bikes before? Does he adapt pretty quickly?

Gwin knows how to ride bikes for sure, but someone in his camp should teach him to strike while the iron is hot. Three or four weeks ago when news that his relationship with Specialized had ended I was very curious as to what he'd be riding in 2016. Now I just don't care.

In the second paragraph it says I can expect to see Commencal at the Fontana series this winter and possibly at my LBS next spring while on their demo tour? I wonder how many LBS's are going to actually allow a consumer direct mail-order bike brand to post up in their parking lot with a demo truck? Not too many I suspect... edit: However, I do agree with schwaaa31 and others that there is indeed a market for this type of sales strategy.
