Looks to be two new bikes coming from Polygon based on Dan Wolfes instagram. Looks like they’re making a carbon version of the colossus enduro bike (which might bring the complete weight below 40lbs lol). And a new carbon framed e-bike using a new version of polygons 6-bar linkage. Looks to be using a Bosch motor based off some of his POV footage and will presumably use the new Bosch gen5 motor. Pics: (e-bike is the black bike, Carbon colossus is the white one)

Those are two different things. WRP 0 drag mod is exactly what it was designed for; zero drag free coasting. It was designed to reduce rolling resistance. When you backpedal, it moves the DT ratchets apart so they are no longer dragging. When you pedal forward it re-engages them so you can pedal. WRP themselves mentioned it was not designed around pedal kickback nor is it out there to challenge devices like OChain. Quote from them: " pedal kickback and pedalling are the same thing just inverse; so if you can pedal it won’t eliminate pedal kickback. But we’re working...

Loris has been living in andorra for a few years

just posted up jack rice's MSA interviews to our podcast channel. photos will be up soon, but some interesting bits in some of the audio, like most everyone interviewed not sure what's going on next year. vali seeming like she needs a break and wants to do hardlines and film projects, abigail hogie with some juice and gwin making it sound like some cool stuff will be going down at windrock. nothing concrete in any of them, but that's why it's rumors, right? Interviews 0:00 - Intro 1:11 - Greg Minnaar 4:44 - Marine Cabirou 6:06 - Sven Martin 11:59...

Just a thought with changes in race team structure from WB, if the top Elite team are limiting their numbers due to costs and WB limiting general access, many of the Elite team don't have female representation. So, this will limit the fields of Women in the sport. I'm not saying that team should be forced to add female riders, but without that, it may in a roundabout way decimate the female classes, just when it's been growing so well, and the racing is the best it has been for a long while. Spesh Gravity, Mondraker, Atherton, Giant, Frameworks, Gravity...

Antoine Vidal gets the ball rolling early, signing off from Commencal Les Orres.

Rumour of my demise have been exaggerated. We are safe. But we are forever changed. A water & wind event of near biblical proportions hit us & has taken far more lives than can be counted. Didn't know where to make my one post, but this will be it for a long time. No politician, no plan, no design could have stopped anything that happened here. A stream I could step across took the first home at the top of it. A friend lost 10 members of his family saving his wife and kids watching his parents & relatives swept...

If Daprela felt he had a case for unfair dismissal you would think he would have taken legal action to the teams himself. The fact that he has built his own private program says a lot. Action, consequence.

You're missing out on the fact that the teams are private businesses and they don't have to hire anyone. If they don't want someone with potential baggage, that's their prerogative. Given that racing is essentially done exclusively for marketing, it's no surprise that the big teams are taking a pass on him. There's not some grand conspiracy trying to hold back your boy, just businesses doing cost/benefit analysis to what he'd bring to their brand image.

Watching Norco go from publicly announcing they were shutting down their race team to then signing Greg and now potentially adding 3 more riders has been quite the roller coaster but I'm here for it.

Martin confirm (kind of) he will ride the 10 rounds next year so...maybe that long time promised dh bike is soon alive! Fullattack MSA track walk video

George Brannigan retires from racing. Let's hope some nasty shreddits are in his future!

This one's somewhat a team and a tech rumor I guess: Judging by Orbea's oolap post from today it looks like their DH bike is ready which would take one thing hindering them from starting a DH team off the table.

In his post-US Open Wyn TV interview, Lachie made sure to metion how well his Trek bike rides and carries speed. He must be signed by them by now...

Why? Not saying fmd isn’t one of the coolest set ups in the pits nor that her and her dad’s team didn’t grow together. But with the incoming rules it could make a lot of sense for tahnee to move to a team where elite status is guaranteed and maximizes her individual pay and Tony can focus on Kaos and devoloping gale and future young talent.

Tahnees Dad is the FMD Team manager (and has done quite well from Tahnees's racing career).There is no way she goes to race for another team without him.

Honda to be back with a WC team, including Loris, Tahnee, BC Yes I can foresee all that from the photo (and ground coffee).

Camillie will be on a new team next year..her GF Emilie is selling her bikes on a online market here in Switzerland..and it states "new sponsorship for 2025"..

By that metric....one of the 15 fastest ladies.
