Protesting the podium is not going to work. You know what will? Protest the race. Would be amazing to have everyone qualify for DH finals and the. All go off course in the first 10 seconds and get DQed. No one gains a points advantage, WB gets screwed as they have nothing to broadcast.

I thought the wear marks in this pic were interesting

I didn't look at the image properly the first time - that's pretty catastrophic! Although fixable with a modified layup! Who's bike was it?

Tell us more.

BK says why not have a light frame, not sure the warranty department will agree with him. Seems an odd goal to go for with a modern DH bike, sure make it not a tank, but weight weenies aren't buying DH bikes.

As someone with a front seat on brake mount designs/development for a number of years, there are pros and cons to each mounting method depending on the material and frame design, and the intended customer. Often the intended customer preference outweighs the best possible engineered solution. Shear force loading the caliper bolts is a non-issue in most cycling applications. For a steel frame, the complexity and cost of using either a post mount or direct mount design might go against the simplicity and cost reduction goals of that project. Those customers might prefer something simple, inexpensive, and easy to use...

Rear shock looks a lot like a fast with different anno. Those fork lowers look super familiar too, but I can't place it.

Your URL hackery is weak, son. I have no single idea what the shock could be. Fast? Chickadee? A non-shit x-fusion?

I think the protest is simple. Go race and the top 3 don't show up for podium until its swapped back to 5.

Would boycotting the 3 person podium get their point across?

This is amazing, I hope it can get some traction and create the change it aims for. I’m also hoping they implement that change across all disciplines. From the racer’s perspective, the point about brand exposure and visibility is inarguable. But from my point of view as a fan, I’ve always thought that a three person podium looked a bit dull and I-don’t-know-what-to-do-with-my-hands awkward. 5 person podium looks like a party.

Gas To Podium, hell yeah!

The other site has an article about Vanderham going to Transition

I feel a lot of people haven't encountered Bizutch before. He is never wrong and your the idiot for thinking otherwise 😂

butch is just mad because he's got exponentially more excuses than podiums.

Just to add some fuel to the fire, it's long been my opinion that nobody should feel entitled to make a living from sport. If you happen to be very good at a sport that also happens to be very popular, you stand to make a lot of money, and bully for you! But that's not a right. If, however, you're very good at an unpopular sport, just enjoy being good at something. If the sport is also dangerous, you also have a risk/reward equation to balance in your head before competing. But nobody's forcing you to take those risks.

HAHA just proof that no one clicks links or reads press releases 😂 I updated the link. I think its time for a beer today!
