The Syndicate needed a solid, consistent top 10 male rider to back up Jackson. Kolb will provide that, along with Nina to rack up the points for the team overall whilst Jackson battles the Alran brothers and Asa for race wins.

Oz_Taylor Added a comment about press release Öhlins Unveils New Visual Identity

Context is everything. Just imagine you’d never seen the original Öhlins logo, then somebody presented to you today, a free college font wordmark with a box around it, and the first letter of the name as the logo. It would be laughable. The only thing it had going for it was familiarity. Öhlins badly needed a refresh. Their products have never been the most exciting visually. Whilst slightly lacking in personality, the new icon is versatile and provides loads of options for product graphics. Once this starts to appear on forks and shocks I think we’ll forgive them.

If Dak is let go it's a harsh decision from Mondraker. The guy worked his way back from a serious injury to a top 10 world cup result and won the US open. When Dak is back to full strength he's a podium threat next year for sure. Maybe Pivot should pick up Dak and Dylan Maples (I'm assuming he...

There were a couple of clues in the live feed. As Kolb was climbing onto the stage whilst passing the race winning V10, Neko says " Is that his bike or Jacksons?", to which Rik replies "Careful!". In the interview Andi was asked why he was so happy to see Jackson beat Bruni. He gave a very diplomatic answer, which...

How sad. Since when did this forum become some kind of gossip column, bitching about pro riders who you don’t know personally and have probably never met? Stop this nonsense and just enjoy the spectacle. This season is becoming another classic. Hope it goes to the final round.

They are track markers. No doubt about that. Every other rider went inside it, over the jump and therefore couldn’t pedal. AP went outside and was able to pedal and gained an advantage. He should be DQd. Imagine what Matt Walker is thinking, being less than 0.1s back. Also if AP finishes on the podium tomorrow, should he even be...
Exactly. Seems pretty normal to want to race in predictable conditions where you know you are strongest. Ask any racer in the top 30 if they want a mudder at the opening round and you’ll probably get the same answer. Whilst mud races are fun for the spectators and are somewhat of a leveller, this is a fast track and...

It was strange. After the hack, all the posts up to 2015 reappeared. I thought Remi Thirion was back on Commencal 🙃 I’m surprised they only asked for €2500.

Ironically the riders who weren’t that great to watch were the ones invited because of their social media following or the paint on their helmet. Those guys certainly aren’t surviving on minimum age. A 10th place at a World Cup will get you noticed. A 10th place at Rampage or Hardline won’t. Are you saying that these events aren’t worth...

Not sure what I’m watching…is this supposed to be a race? edited to add: My comment above was posted about 1 hour into the broadcast. Aside from Lou Fergusons wild run and the excellent commentary, I wasn’t really enjoying the event at that point. For an hour we were watching riders simply ride down a track. I have huge respect...
