1/17/2025 12:21pm Ha! Yes those are pretty sweet. No, I’m a mountain biker, I heard it from the voices in my head 🙃. But it could be an interesting fit for Wyn, and definitely could be a revenue stream for Gwin without infringing on his potential clientele. Just trying to introduce some more fun into rumors, sorry if the joke didn’t land...

"heard that Wyn, or Gwin" Do you mean you literally overheard someone say *wyn was spotted on a hyper, and you weren't sure if they said Wyn, Gwin or any other -win name, presumably because you were hiding in the closet, covertly listening in to one side of a phone conversation, or perhaps even using one of those spy-radar listening device things? If so, that is the kind of team rumour I am here for.

1/17/2025 8:33am heard that Wyn, or Gwin, may have been spotted on a Hyper belt drive. Cami is going to Scott. Dak is now driving truck and looking for outside sponsors. Phil has a new lubricant sponsor that will get him to the races. And EVL is off Monster, in talks with water for new helmet sponsor. Should help her when it...

I might have missed it, but did Atherton Racing do a farewell post for Andi Kolb? He was a great addition to their team, and it is a bummer he has moved on. His talents will be missed.

I thought for a minute I was imagining that he was posting, deleting, posting, deleting, ad nauseam the same post. Trisquelo is a great argument for why we need to have concussion protocols and good helmets. Daprela burner account?

Ghosting Sam Hill? They’re gonna be kicking themselves after he wins that easy Tasmania Hardline race by 25 seconds.

Orbea still doesn't have a DH bike yet. They didn't even have a ridable prototype for Maes less than 8 months ago - he was on that linkage modified no battery wild. They're gonna have to come up with something good in a month or so for Hardline or in 4-ish months when the first DH WC starts.

Wide spread across the range, but MTB dominated, then kids bikes and commuter bikes equally, then road bikes in minuscule numbers. An even split as well between electric and non electric in both MTB and road bikes. We should probably stop now, before the powers that be, chastise us for polluting the Team rumors thread lol.

Not related to the transition stuff above, but considering Martin Maes is following FMD on instagram and the only other teams he follows are his previous teams and brands, I think it's quite clear what is going to happen with Orbea and FMD after the Orbea shut down. Would be interesting to see how FMD does enduro stuff or combine into one team and do both enduro an DH, maybe a little like YT is doing already. Didn't think they'd go for a brand like Orbea though.

Also just found this site. Just another place to nerd out a bit on results and ranking. https://mtbdata.com/ranking/2024/teams/downhill/2024-11-12 https://mtbdata.com/ranking/2024/downhill/men-elite/2024-11-19 - Super surprised at where riders ended up at the end of the year.

To a point. When I was working as a design engineer not in the bike industry we'd use local manufacturing for prototyping and often it was fucking pathetic, nothing like the drawing, totally unusable, and then you'd have to have arguments or pay extra to get what you actually wanted. Often the machinist "knew better" so disregarded the spec. Or you'd send your drawings off to China and you'd actually get what you asked for, with similar turnaround times, and pay FAR less. You just have to communicate your design intent extremely well, and have your drawings perfect. I work...
