All

I for one, am fully in favor of the increased availability of silver components (and I guess I should take some pics of my bike and post them in Bike Checks)

We just gonna forget that Maes took the underperforming Frankenstein-e-bike you mention to a 20th place finish at one of his only DH races this year? can’t be that bad… can it? Orbea is too big a company to not have something in the works (that isn’t just a wild sans battery/motor).

I get what you’re saying, but I gotta think there’s no way Orbea is dropping Tahnee money and her riding a bike that isn’t an Orbea. Besides, @dantecusolito was talking specifically about them buying prototype frames from another brand. Selling prototype anything is a BIG old no-no. This would create a huge rift with the brand and could introduce some major liability issues. Athletes typically have to sign additional waivers and NDAs when working on prototype projects if it’s not already written into their initial contract. Orbea has a lot of engineering and manufacturing capabilities, they’ll have something ready.

Looks like a gamux if you ask me

how often people wright this legendary man‘s name wrong just baffles me… it‘s Aaron GWIN! 🙄 rant over, sorry😅

I really think the industry could use another billet stem ngl

What is Jack's status now?

shouldn't vali be in front?

Danny does seem to have some pretty decent self-awareness. He used to have an adversarial relationship with Wyn, but he flipped the script and now I love their interactions.

Going to be fun reading wireless/electronic aficionados rationalizing an expensive, cumbersome and fugly axs dropper over a cabled version.
