I don’t think Atwill would be a mistake on the Syndicate’s part at all. He’s a top 10 and has placed top 5 on a few occasions. Also top 20 world champs guy. And, he’s got that whole free racer/jib rider thing going on a-la Brendog, Bernard, Wyn, Kade and Kaos and that aspect certainly seems popular with the DH bike customer. Plus, the syndicate hasn’t had that guy since The Rat. And, he’s from the UK so he’ll probably get along with Peaty (isn’t that one of the reasons people are saying Loris wanted out?). And and, working with...

It should be noted that Ethan showed impressive speed before a concussion put him off the bike for a year and a half. Even if his dad weren't running the team, he's earned the chance to come back. The flip side of that coin is that Katy didn't fall off the pace until her own concussion issues arose. I would have liked to see her take a year off to see if she could figure things out, and one could argue that she's earned that opportunity from Trek. As someone who is only beginning to recover from concussion-related PTSD after...

The same data set that brought us Live valve? Cause that doesn't seem to have translated from motor sports to Bikes as well as they were hoping lol. I understand where you are coming from and what you are saying but this whole narrative I keep seeing in the forum's that FOX is the only company the bleeds racing and that Loris would be doing himself a disservice moving to something else is just silly talk.

Just because RS don't have a YouTube video series with a guy in a sprinter van and a friendly dude in his backyard doesn't mean RS doesn't care about the details. There are plenty of riders on the circuit running RS who demand the same if not more from their suspension. Let's not forget Amaury Pierron absolutely killed everyone two years ago aboard a bike with RS on it and I don't feel the suspension was holding him back.

Tbh it always kicks up more towards january or so, na? And now with covid restrictions and so we might not get much in terms of real news till february or so I'd say, since my guess is most race series will try and push the calendar back a bit into the summer in hopes of getting public in. May be talking out of my ass, but sounds at least logic.

So there are a few answers here that could help solve the mystery. 1) the higher the handlebars are, the farther you have to effectively lean over when cornering. The only way you would really be able to have bars at a similar height to your moto’s is if you rode it like a moto and lean more with your body, and less with the bike. This would require trails to be quite a lot different than they mostly are. 2) Fitting and body measurements. There is a whole other side of science that I don’t know enough to teach...

Why trash? A bike with 150 mm travel, enabling you some rowdiness, is, in my opinion, a bike that deserves a piggyback shock. In general. I can imagine there are lots of locations where they are not as needed, but then you should question the choice of said bike. But I'm weird, I'd put a piggyback shock on something with ~130 mm or maybe even less travel. Because why not

Saw two engineers testing it beginning of this year, could barely tell it was an Ebike aside from the sound of the motor as they rode past on what was otherwise an exact replica of the new enduro.

They have Dean Lucas - who has been on the podium before. But yeah, a new teammate would be good.

I'm still running a pair of impact hightops from 6 odd years ago. Have glued the soles back on a few times, but the uppers are just about buggered now.

Kade is dating Tahnee and is riding buddies with kaos. They’ve filmed a lot of stuff before. Could be a “day in the life” style video or behind the scenes of the FMD team.

Not sure if anything has been confirmed on this yet... friend of a friend (tenuous, I know) was at descend hammsterly on Friday (Danny’s bike park for those not in the know) and apparently his mechanic, presumably he means Scott Mears was riding a Cube bike.
