It's actually quite amazing how far ahead the Levo was when it was released. In my eyes, its still competitive with the Amflow. Amflow's are not quite as light as some of the early reports. Sam's with a 38, a coil & gravity Schwalbes weighs 50#s in a size Large. That's still 5#s more than my XL Relay, also with dual coil suspension, 1 gravity tire & pedals and tools on board. I'm still looking for the free lunch but have yet to find it. My plan is to buy the E-Druid, but I think it'll weigh 48#s once all...

This is insane behavior!

Tbf I was thinking it's just a bike he left there from last year, you gotta think if he's already got a dh bike in New Zealand why bring another

cannot be an e-bike?

What’s your issue with Zink? He has been an absolute legend every time I have hung out with him and that’s many, many times over the years. Not to mention all of his wins and what he has done for our sport.

When was this canyon drop? was this pre sam pilgrim? who were their " influencers”? We know they are going to take a massive Hit from the Ebike battery drama and there was 2 posts on insta where people had lost garages from the fires, which were taken down shortly before the announcement. The Exploding seat stays on the torque and spectral ebikes seem to have caused issues aswell - as a heap of those posts are gone aswell. I'd happily see canyon as a brand take a big loss, They are part responsible for Headset routing when they worked...

Also, someone must get to the bottom of where Norco is finding all this money in 2024 and 2025 with the bike market being in the dumpster. Greg, team manager and part-time racer has to still be commanding $200-250K+/yr. Then 6 factory-level riders. Granted the only 'big names' are Danny and Erice (Danny likely still came at a discount, maybe $175k). But still, having 6 full-time riders, Greg part-time. That's a ton of mechanics, travel expenses, etc. And their marketing budget is considerable, based on what they did last year with the videos and design. This fresh team announcement video...

I’m not hating, but Sam Hill is 39 years old. Hasn't it been more than a decade since he won a UCI DH? Why are we talking about what his program is when everyone is cutting budgets? #flatpedalswinsmedals

Fifth on the right is Bert from the muppets

Enduro is not dead. World Cup enduro is dead, enduro was and always will be for the common folk like us.

I guess that means the awful drawn-by-a-child aesthetic is continuing into 2025. Really hoped that would not be the case.

Sam Reynolds off UR team / NS bikes

Wait for ebikes.

For those w/out Insta, broken hip socket ( acetabulum) from a freak moto crash (he didn't provide deets), surgery, no weight-bearing/walking for 3 months.

Is this televised or broadcast anywhere?

instead of gossiping about some riders relationships here are some actual team news: team 31 (jenny rissved‘s squad) is off ibis cycles.

Obviously have down votes. Not condemning either of them. Just the idea of what such a 'slogan' can do. I come here to read rumours and chat bikes, not to chat personal life.

Has something saucy come to light, or are we just riding him for the underage/yet she wasn't underage thing? Yes I find it strange! Not really much of a fan of his, but smashing low level comments isn't really team rumours. Always thought vital to be a little more high brow. Look what 'rumours' did to Dapprella. (True or not) nothing yet specified. Fill me in if you know.

The other site was down for a few days. Folks brought their energy here. Sucks when I see a new page added and none of it is actual race rumors.
