Not a fan of the color but maybe it will look better built up Edit: unfunniest downvoters - please remember that humor exists

A guy I know was on his first solo mountain bike ride when he started cramping up. Had that first bike / new hobby stoke and was trying out the route we’d shown him the week prior. He hadn’t done a ton of long cardio activities in a while, and ended up getting roasted on a hot day. Mega cramps had him walking the final trail back, with some sit downs and some groaning. Those really gnarly leg cramps that just debilitate you. Not particularly funny. Until a rider came by and helped by offering water and an energy packet...

How many kWh and square meters or glacier can we consume to get a computer to tell us that thinking about your line choice before dropping in to a trail is beneficial to your riding? Sorry to burst your AI bubble.

AI chatbots only regurgitate words it's found online in a different order, so the better option would be to see what actual dirt jumpers do, rather than using a glorified thesaurus to do your thinking for you. AI has its place for consolidating information, but this isn't it.

I had a Mojo with X-Fusion. Friend was the local dealer and got offered a deal. Idea was to swap parts over time. It ended up with Fox 36 and CCDBA and full XT groupset as things wore out and items were in the sale. Still worked out cheaper than buying a better spec to begin with and I had it exactly how I wanted it.

Coulanges, the name you are looking for is Coulanges. He rides a bike for a living. Colognes. You wear those on the body to smell better. Know your French.

UCI just announced in the Rider Communications that the road gap is closed for the Junior women in DH this weekend, B-line only. Its open for Elite M and W and junior men. i thought this was 2025? Why not let the girls decide for them selves whether they want to take the B-line or not.

dang, cant say I know that place! going to have to watch some videos! Mt. 7 would be gnarly for a proper WC track! Would love to see it and who would shine at a track like that. Definitely BC has the terrain.. Angel Fire would be good to see again. Definitely some East Coast spots would be great. Some phenomenal races held out there in the past with tracks folks were loving.

1199 looks to be a pretty awesome new school style tech track. Got some hectic shutes and tech loan sections, and some high speed massive features. I think a lot of the reason we don't see tracks with steep hairpins the whole way is because it's terrible for camera locations. It's not like the tracks their riding aren't technical, but I do agree that some flat corners would be nice, but most places repurpose part of the bike park tracks so they come with berms built already.

I see Wyn’s reason for anger. Didn’t he fight as a privateer to move and up where he is now? He wants others to have the same opportunity not have mommy and daddy buy spots on teams. He IMO has done more good for the sport of late than anyone else. So yiu know Im going to continue to believe he if fighting a fight he feels is right and not just an old man yelling get off my lawn.

Agreed unfortunately. If that fits the rule book. Side note/soapbox to complain about Rick’s commentary. He doesnt talk about the riders, he just podcasts random crap while people are riding. Rob, Elliot and Aaron talked about the riders, results elsewhere, history, and other random facts. It’s like they did research and Rick, not so much.

Re: Water satchel sanitary issues/remedies. One of the best bladder & bottle tips I ever got was from Dirt Rag (RIP) ages ago. That tip? Denture cleaning tablets. 2-3 depending on the size of bottle/bladder. Works a treat and even adds a slight minty taste to the water, which is better than the plasticy/rubbery taste of some of the aforementioned, IMO at least.

Seems appropriate to me! 1) not exactly-Because I recommend having tyres dialled in with appropriate casing, width and pressure first and suspension second. They both contribute to the system but in quite different ways so if you changed tyres then needed a suspension change it would mean you didn't have an appropriate tyre before. In reality it might not always work that way - I always say tyres are criminally misunderstood so its hard for people to pick the best tyres from the start and you might need a little bit of back and forward. Personally I think each rider/application...

can we please stay rumors in here?! i get that these discussions are fun, but also annoying to most who just want to read about new tech/rumors and don‘t want to scroll through pages of off-topic discussions regarding chainstay length/right amount of travel/dropper post insertion/ etc. thx guys!
