The issue is potentially see is that if I recall correctly, Troydon mentioned the DH bikes were a limited run.. Is there enough of a demand to go fire up a full production run? Where as the ebikes are probably a better option sales wise. I guess we'll see soon.. But, Crestline is still listed on the Gwin Racing IG...

heads up with the shock, not all gonna fit: https://www.emtbforums.com/threads/velduro-rogue-170-165-mullet-enduro-…

Exactly. I live in a place where there are no uplifts and having a DH bike with a motor and battery would be the greatest thing. A massive plus if you could just remove the battery (so it’s allowed on an airplane) and race it with the motor in it, wouldn’t have to buy weights that way hehe

Ok here is my unified semi-conspiracy theory that explains the proto V10, Jackson Goldstone's bike weights, the mysterious lack of a Specialized Enduro, the development journey of the Demo, lagging enduro enthusiasm from bike companies in general, and even the Orbea Rallon. Manufacturers think that e-bikes are the future and are orienting themselves toward dedicating a majority of their efforts toward producing them. They have the following assumptions about e-bikes: -E-bikes have shown that the weight of the motor under the bottom bracket can actually play a positive role in how a bike handles. It drives the front tire into...

ENOUGH BK-LIFE-CHOICES TALK IN HERE.

Tippie was in NWA quite a bit over the last couple of years as part of YT events. Everything said on that writeup is true. He's unflagging in his positivity and stoke. He includes everyone and interact with everyone from the kookiest kid to the most seasoned pro. He's almost uncomfortably positive and full of stoke at times, but a brand really couldn't ask for a better ambassador. I hope he lands somewhere. Dude is a legend, and his story of climbing out of the dark depths of addiction is inspirational.

Bernard Bernard Bernard Yawn yawn yawn Y’all call him out if you have a problem. Canyon enduro is done and specialised. Most enduro is done. Enduro with WBD will be done by 27. Finished, finito. Sacha Ernest to yeti?

So much hatred towards BK. I don't understand it. He does a lot for the sport, and his private relationships – which are discussed a lot here, and where everyone is entitled to their opinion, just like with sausage, politics and art – shouldn't really matter. He does more for the sport than all the keyboard warriors here in the forum.

Yeah, BK Sport Factory Racing aka PFR will likely need to get a fast elite rider who can score some points. Jenna hasn't done much in the last 3 years and having a fast elite women on your team is a sure bet to consistently score points. I'm guessing adding another female won't work given the team dynamic but is there an enduro team still? If not, that would free up some budget to get a fast elite male. I'm betting on Laurie Greenland, he lives in the UK so cheaper for BK vs a North American rider that costs...

I like bulldog, awesome rider and his comeback was inspiring. With that said, he has openly criticized multiple bike brands that he has ridden for. If I was a marketing manager for a bike company I would be reluctant to sign him with worries he would bash the bikes, calling them trash etc.

Unno revealing the next gen avinox?

simple solution for that -> just don‘t watch his content! and now please back to team rumors before this starts to be a BK-bashing thread again.

BK just posted a new LSD, seems really positive for 2026 ”Team is changing, looking very exciting for next year, gonna have a new pits, a full-time filmer…” So guessing not too short on funds…sounds like Pivot is still main sponsor

All we wanted was televised Q1/2 what is this nonsense

If this is the plan. I'm not mad. At. All.

and this, kids, is why we can’t have nice things (the fucking reality!!!!) anymore

Why would you post an AI-altered image here in the first place?

enough product talk in team rumors.
