Official Start list should be in shortly from UCI. Fantasy Game will start once we know who’s officially racing. It’s open until a few hours before race start, so you can pick team early and adjust after semis even.

lev Added a reply to Honest question for e-bike buyers: What's your long term ownership strategy when you buy an e-bike?
11/19/2023 1:31pm In the UK there’s a few small companies reconditioning motors and making improvements, so once the two years warranty is up, there’s a some hope! I guess I will treat it as something that needs removing from the bike, sending to a service centre, like your fork or shock. I want to keep my 18 month old Levo for at...

Feels like you are channelling your ebike hate through this article. I guess the bowhead may be needed for the trails they ride if they flatten out or go up hill a bit. Or maybe it’s the riders choice of weapon! Well done RC for putting this together. Hope your racers have a great season : )

We’re big fans of all things Hope here at Vital, after years of positive experiences with many of their products. The CNC wizards from Barnoldswick, England have a habit of taking their time with product development, and they’ve been in no rush to update their excellent Tech 3 brakes which have been garnering great reviews since their introduction in 2013. Still, they knew they wanted to make some improvements and 2022 saw them introduce the inconspicuously named Tech 4. Hope sought to provide a lighter lever feel and increase the braking power, and without getting ahead of ourselves, we can...

There's no doubt Hill is motivated, partially at least, by fun, and anyone who has ridden an ebike can attest that they are definitely a lot of fun. I'm psyched he's going for it. Regarding his results this season on the regular bike, it seems clear he's not pushing to that wicked edge that winning racers must push to, and that's fine: He won three consecutive titles, let the man chill.

10/1/2021 1:43pm I was so happy when I watched Sam get on the podium at the EWSe. He should make this his primary sport. I think he is sensible enough to see all the advantages e bikes offer and will enjoy doing double the amount of stages than the regular race, because after all, it’s all about the downs….

Anyone that thinks MVP can't ride a mountain bike is an idiot, plenty of footage of him shredding XC bikes on rough terrain. Sucks what happened, and can understand his reaction in the aftermath of the race. Give it time he will probably own it. More embarrassing is the Dutch women's team and the whole organization's reaction to the road race where they got embarrassed. Whining about lack of radios/info because they can't count breakaway riders out/in. Not even congratulating the winner who was standing beside them, pathetic. Jolanda killed it though! Huge save on the drop and then passing...

To be fair; Neff knew she was hitting the drop and at the wrong speed. MVdP looked like he was pushing down into the non-existent ramp. But as the only guy not sending the drop, totally his fault.

Take yer lumps dude. I can't imagine how crushing it is to crash out on the first lap of an olympic race BUT it's his fault. Also Neff muscled it out so maybe its time to do some push ups?

7/27/2021 10:23am Van der Poel should listen to his coach and team mates in the future. For now, just eat some humble pie.

Never wore a hole in a carbon crank - it did happen to me with a XTR aluminium crank, though.

7/20/2021 2:30am I had some Next carbon cranks develop stress cracks along the length of the arm. Never crashed, just my 100kg heft and pedalling. RF (siverfish in the UK) didn't want to know to begin with, but I kept pressing them. They ended up swapping for some SIXC under warranty in the end. They were nice until I took the end...
