He is now 35 so he is not going to be picked up for WC DH anymore unfortunately. And that has to be hard pill to swallow knowing what he had on his hands at some point. The chances to exit like Greg, Peaty, or Gracia are extremely slim and for sure that attitude mentioned above doesn’t help.

I think you are also missing the point that while prototype bikes might not reach the full fruition as we can see them tested on the circuit, they can still heavily influence any other products of the company. We are pretty lucky to have WC DH as a test field...

No tax/tariff charges on this side, $140 in shipping/paypal/parcel fees from Intend and took 8 days to get from Germany to Colorado. But you never know these days......

Hmmm. Not sure I'd be feeling too confident if I received one of these emails; "Hello Young Talent,  We regret to inform you that, due to ongoing insolvency proceedings, your order ******* has been put on hold. As your payment was received before the proceedings officially began, it is legally considered part of the insolvency estate.  At this stage, we are unable to issue refunds or provide further details about the status of your payment. We understand how frustrating and disappointing this situation is, especially without a clear resolution.  If you wish to explore your options, we...

I personally did not like how flexy carbon bars are (One Up v1), especially for hard riding (enduro racing) where I needed to point the bike into a specific direction or when getting out of the corners, or sprinting. Aluminium bars (Renthal, in my experience) fixed that. They made the riding more precise.

The PUSH Industries Nine.One Specifications 150mm-170mm travel (10mm steps), 36mm stanchions, bushing overlap 145mm, coil sprung, 15mm floating axle, pneumatic bottom out control, weight 2960g, Chassis The 9.1 crown is large with massive overlap on the 44.5mm aluminum upper legs which are bonded in. Specialized developed a fully bonded alloy crown/stanchion system for the E160 fork around 2010 while I was a member of the engineering group. It is a great alternative to the traditional press fit assembly method for a fork CSU, and in some ways superior. The moto inspiration for the 9.1 design is apparent, the fork lugs...
