1/7/2023 12:47am Here's my completely made up Sam Hill rumour. Nukeproof factory will return to DH racing with Adam Brayton and Sam Hill (and others? maybe Mike Jones? He previously rode for the CRC team, and is now a Nukeproof supported privateer). Hill will compete in select events in enduro and DH.

12/10/2022 12:19am looks like the new Atherton 170, unfinished looking lugs and the straight seat tube that was mentioned in the teaser posted by Atherton bikes a few weeks ago

10/6/2022 2:04am Department of Transport is the US Government department. The British version is the Ministry of Transport, which is why our yearly test on cars is called a MoT test. Also DOT fluid is pretty much a global standard, used in the brakes and clutches of all cars on the road as far as I know. There's definitely arguments for and...

10/5/2022 2:04am Can I ask why you prefer DOT? It seems the whole MTB world has been asking for all brakes to use Mineral Oil. It's not corrosive and seems to last for ages before needing bleeding, and doesn't come out black like DOT fluid. The only benefit of DOT fluid I can see is the boiling temperature is much higher, but...

9/13/2022 2:07am Oh man I'm so excited for next year. Jordan and Jackson coming to elite, and I think one, if not both can get a win. Bernard Kerr nearly winning multiple times this year, can he get a win next year? Ronan Dunne and Henry Kerr both setting good pace Gwin back on the box Finn finally getting a win

9/7/2022 5:48am Doubt we will see BK on anything but Pivot for a long time. He runs the team, and has been on Pivot for 10 years? He seems to have a good relationship with the owner of Pivot, and puts out some quality Youtube content. On the Danny Hart note, he's had a lot on his plate lately, that's obvious, and...

9/6/2022 4:00am Yeah they have been teasing them a lot lately. Fairplay to Katie, that road gap she hits is huge and sketchy as fuck, video doesn't show it. Was up in the FoD a few months ago and that gap had been built next to an existing track, I looked and thought fuck that.

9/5/2022 4:39am Any news on Jordan Williams? He will be hot property coming into elites, having set the FTD at VDS and placing the in top 10 elite for a lot of the races. He came from a Saracen development program into the Madison team when he started juniors, I wouldn't be suprised if that contract only covered his junior years. Another...

9/2/2022 3:01am I think these wheels have been around for a bit, I think Hunt is about to launch a new range of carbon MTB wheels under the "Proven" branding. They have already shown off some XC race wheels and these Enduro Race wheels, I would expect a trail wheel in the line up too.

You are not but those people usually either don't bike park or have a bigger bike for that use. Currently I can't justify having 2 bikes but still do plenty of bike park and the trails I ride are purpose built enduro stages so 170/180mm with DH geo is what I've been looking for for many years. The bike industry is finally answering our needs, your needs have been answered for years and are still being answered with AM bikes and Down-country bikes, let us have our cake.

8/31/2022 3:24pm Atherton confirmed in the PB podcast earlier this year they are working on a 170mm bike and a 130?mm bike. Apparently Affy was already riding the 170mm prototype so they probably aren't far from production considering how quickly Atherton can get them manufactured

8/28/2022 1:14pm Has been briefly mentioned. Looks like a carbon version of the current Dissent

8/19/2022 2:02am Is this a joke, or does nobody read backwards? The new Bell helmet has been discussed a lot in this thread. Not for sale yet but probably coming soon seeing as it's in the hands of athletes and reviewers. I'd expect a release in the autumn

8/18/2022 2:08am Already been covered a few pages back. Looks like a new Full face, which makes sense since they renewed the rest of their helmet range recently. I imagine it will be released soon
