Estaque and Bouladou. Definitely two of the better names in the scene. Estaque. Bouladou.

Spoilers in last Lalyche TV vidéo.. Goodman Santa Cruz with a stacked team and two new riders.. 🙈🙊 https://youtu.be/XcILY8BTD_o?feature=shared

Something something about car guys making bikes. Did we already forget this eye sore?

A $1500+ small batch steel hardtail frame, a $1200 Norco Optic frame, a $1100 Turner Scrub TI frame, and a $700 Banshee Paradox V3 frame. All of these frames have objectively different ride qualities, and many more subjective differences. You can decide to value them however you like. The market has decided to rank their value in this order. Also see: wine, collector's cars, fashion, cigars, concert tickets, art. What's the correct value for any of these things? If a frog had pockets, what would it carry in them?

Her parents probably don't want her to be BK's next girlfriend

cast bar is a giveaway too seeing as they seem to be the only team using them

Hart to Norco seems somewhat likely given the TRP stuff and fresh gold fork

Only Deore will have a mechanical,12 speed version. SLX will go kaput, as will Saint, and XTR/XT/Deore will be 13 speed wireless, ANT+ compatible. XTR and XT will have Race (compact cassette, 2-pot brakes) and Enduro (wide range cassette, 4-pot brakes) versions.

In Q1 2025 bosch is releasing an update to do 100nm on the CX5.

It's nice having a boss whose preferred answer is "Go for it. Give it a try and see how it works."

Hi there, Cam here from Outlier MTB. First and foremost, thank you all for your positive comments and support during our recent launch! I see that some of you have been discussing the actual pedal drop on this forum. There have been some misunderstandings that we would like to take some time to clear up. Our Pendulum pedal as it was released has 6mm of drop measured from the centre of the axle to the top of the platform. Most flat pedal platforms are somewhere between 5-7mm above the axle so our pedals are essentially ~12mm bellow your average pedal...

Remember when Dodge slapped a hellcat engine into a Pacifica

https://www.norco.com/bikes/mountain/trail/optic/25-optic-C2-mx/ ok im kinda laughing at this. I know they already made one with a vivid and that was funny enough but for some reason seeing an X2 stroked to make 125mm just tickles me. Norco went so unhinged with the Optic build and I absolutely love them for it. Short travel high pivot... Entire separate linkage to run MX... and offering stock Vivid/X2 options for 125 travel lol. Surely these product dev team meetings have gotta be a blast.

Anyone know what rear mech this is?

Maybe it's been discussed already, but what are the requirements to be considered a team? Do all the rider need to be on the same frame sponsor? Do they need to share a minimum number of sponsors? (I.e. could Gwin and Neko be on the same "team" but ride different frames?

The difference between the 2 is that Red Bull's events are private events, organised, produced & broadcast by them. They can invite whoever they want, no one can argue otherwise. WBD are organising World Cups on behalf of the UCI, the world governing body for competitive cycling events. They should be completely neutral & the only way to be free from bias/influence is to go off points for all teams. Personal opinion... I don't agree with handing control of the highest level of a sport to a TV production company to shape it how they want. I think I might've...

Loris is not mucking around, he’s got himself onto an absolutly dominant team for next year. Hopefully there’s no clash of the titans with the big personalities. After his stripes this year, next year should be a supreme one. All rumours.
