Pay me enough money and I'll put them on my bike too.

"Sorcery chips" lol you need to copyright that asap

i guess we're expecting a couple tyres from Schwalbe, the Hunting Holly and the Tacky Chan, about the first one the Schwalbe guys at the Bike Festival told me already 2 months ago "wait a couple weeks"

oooooh

Should we move this bar height debate into a separate topic? It's a thing I've started thinking about lately and tried a few things out (as noted above), so would love to discuss it in more detail, but this really isn't the place.

They released the bike >1 year ago

Looks like it’s maybe been retrofitted to a Repeater too?

I’m sure I’ll be shot down for this but this is the least exciting new downhill bike on the circuit. I’m sure it works good but mehhh. Additionally - and I’ll really get roasted for this one - I thought the syndicate road trip videos were lame. It all seemed a bit forced and try-hard. Compare it to Amaury’s movie which felt honest, raw and imo just pretty awesome. Edit: we reached 400 🙌

Is it just me, or the Demo proto has a reaaaaally steep effective seattube angle?

That last part is what I was aiming at, obviously

I don't know what everyone is worrying about, they'll get at least 4 runs before qualifying, thats heaps. I only need 2 for my local races.

He said the original prototype they raced last year was 41-43 or thereabouts. They've had the 'new' prototype (that was light) since the fall and it sounds like it was still too heavy. So this is the next version. That he said 'should be production'. Looks like a lot of loam and mud will collect in there. Love that Jeff is teasing the frame 2 weeks before the season. So bad. Should have been in racer's hands months ago--as Dakota eluded to on the podcast.
