“ MoscoOne wrote: Katy couldnt fill in her forms properly.“ Making fun of a rider for having dyslexia, particularly when they have very recently addressed publicly that it’s a hard thing for them to be open about due to teasing and bullying, is just truly low behaviour and is not appropriate on this forum or anywhere else. If this is something you would do, or think is acceptable, please fuck off.

Any chance these are just old clips and photos? It appears as though he is still wearing the Intense branded Thor gear, and those look like TRP brakes? Possibly an M1 under there in pre production form from last winter?

High-stack Dak is back! I think at this point he's just trying to get his bike to do a Carolina Squat. Honestly though, I think he's got a point. Inspired by him, I've lately been trying a taller stack of stem spacers + high-rise bars and it honestly feels amazing. So much confidence. Dak really might be onto something.

Crossbar = crossbar pad = SO MUCH ROOM FOR BRANDING

Heard the main reason Dak signed with mondraker is cause they are making him a signature handlebar, with 65mm rise and a crossbar.

The admittedly unclear implication was that “we” derailed the thread and I neither endorsed unsanctioned trails nor demonized them. I just gave us a new place to argue about it. I am keenly aware of and sensitive to the potential for unsanctioned trails to impact legal access. I more took issue with the term eco-crimes and the idea that these trails cause any more meaningful damage than legal trails which seemed a bit extreme in the grand scheme of the late capitalist human shitshow. I will say that the original sin of American MTB occurred in a place where to...

I think Jesse Melamed is also an engineer.

I wanna know who the hell is downvoting Fugazi.

I'm always looking for an excuse to post music, and this feels fitting

Huh. Weird. Something must have happened during the 2019 WC season for Brook.

And on Fox Clothing. At least he can now oficially wear the fox/red bull helmet :D

I am going to spell it out for everyone here that has less experience with Trolls. Someone is purposefully saying silly things to rile you up, just ignore it. Do not reply. Not even a little bit. Just let the stupid comment die in the wind. Then it wont be fun for them anymore and maybe, if we are lucky, we can move on with our lives

vans had the "gravel" flat shoe around 2010 too.

A young Australian will be riding a baguette with German rubber... A radioactive Scot moving onto a concentrated new team... A fish out of water will be set free from his ball and chain...

If I were a pro, I'd prefer to be the lighter rider. Less mass = less stress on components, less load on the tires, and better ability to change direction/accelerate/decelerate. The benefits associated (fewer broken parts, more cornering grip, flickability) would, IMO, outweigh (no pun intended) the heavier rider's increased momentum over rough obstacles.

Your confusing blenky with Justin Leov

The variable that throws all of this off is a formula one car vs a moto GP bike. The car wins every time. It's heavier, longer, bigger but has more of a contact patch and down force. (is it apple to apples comparison, of course not) Do I think being lighter helps, absolutely, can I say Goldstone is the new prototype and his body type is better than Amaury or Loic or Dak, I do not believe that at all. For sure power to weight is a huge advantage and I think thats all Loic is trying to do. I...

Now taking bets on a rule change to permit the onesie before long...
