The Forbidden Izzo spotted in the wild today…

I heard Trump is trying to buy him....

Appreciate the kind words 🙏 that genuinely means a lot. We try. We keep trying. And yeah, when I say we, I really do mean me. Still just one bloke doing everything: product, riders, logistics, emails at stupid o’clock, the lot. No staff, no big safety net. Just belief and stubbornness. The industry doesn’t make it easy for small independents. The big dogs have deeper pockets and louder voices, but that was always kind of the point. Do cool shit, build something authentic, and if it ruffles a few feathers along the way, so be it. I’m proud that Viris...

This is the vibe of Frameworks

I think the other racers could learn a thing or two from Aaron with how he conducts himself. this interview is a prime example of a professional athlete getting the news out about new deals, and letting us in behind the scenes so to speak of how these deals come together and how it can work in a race season. Kudos to Aaron, Frameworks team and Vital for providing this. Good luck on the season ahead!

I heard Vital Global Media made a compelling offer of $100 cash money, a demo bike SantaCruz may or may not have forgotten about and one set of signed Dak custom bars!

Brage has to be one of the biggest ones we're still waiting on.

Noticed Chris Grice on a Frameworks but with some of his specialized parts (Spec tires and DT Swiss wheels). Interesting that he seems to be using a RAD Fox 40 but with black stanchions. Either way good to see him riding and racing.

This is why I bought a Burgtec stem and bars. If they support the things I care about I’ll support them. If nothing else, Bryceland and Brage? Respect. Adding Frameworks and the Goodman team just makes me more hyped.

Goodman Santa Cruz is becoming Santa Cruz Burgtec for 2026! And as previously announced they received the "old" Syndicate truck and pit setup.

I just want to bump this for posterity. 😘

From Ronan on IG. New fork and shock

Looks stoked

Regarding Crestline---This all points to AG divesting from Crestline in terms of being an investor, OR possibly more likely, he's still invested but shifting to a completely silent partner. To the point he will actually ride Specialized E-bike while on Frameworks. Reasons being: -The "Team" e-bike sponsor is Specialized. Crestline is not under Aaron's list of personal sponsors. Which means he's going to be riding Specialized E-bikes. Or unbranded Crestlines, which is awkward either way. -Specialized hasn't seen Frameworks as a competitor to this point, but Crestline may be a bridge too far, so Gwin had to 'go dark' on...

biggest team surprise of the silly season for sure IMO. plus 2-3 year contract sounds more like a serious mission and not the last dance… REALLY STOKED!!! 🤩

Does that mean Gwin no longer has a stake in Crestline or that Crestline is no longer making DH bikes (acknowledging they were already super limited) and just focusing on e-bikes? Will Gwin be training on Specialized e-bikes?

Neko is some kind of sorcerer. America’s GOAT, and the hottest NKOTB racing on the same team. LFG!!!!
