I personally think it all down to the timing of things, in this case the product. The Industry is was usually bringing out new Models every 3 years..well that was the rhythm but nowadays some brands are bringing out models at different times. Giant in this case brought(even though the 3 year timeline for the Glory was done) out the...

..I thought the event was great. Awesome riders and the venue was sick but every year the judging gets hits. Why couldn‘t there be an option and let the fans/ spectators be the judges, I mean they are the closest to the riders and probably see the steepness/gnar of the whole run. It is freeride anyways so keep it simple...on...

Previously riding the Giro Jackets / I finally gave the Afton keegans a try. So far so good. The sole has Held up well(I ride 5-6 times a week) on Burgtec Penthouse pedals. I found that the Vibram sole was a touch to hard and the grooves on the jacket sole to deep, thus a torn outer sole. I was very surprised how comfy the Aftons are and they are grippy too. @VitalMTB: Why no Aftons in the test?

Love the new look of the bikes...wish the team the best of luck this year. The only thing that confuses me is why are they using the old Contact Switch Seatposts? Surely the newer one's were an option. Go get 'em boys!!!

Great news for DVO, glad to see such a brand teaming up with Giant. It also goes to show how open minded the GFORT is for letting DVO have a chance. It also seems like the team is on Shimano Drivetrains? If you take a look at Vezina's bike, its got the XTR rear mech with a 11-46T cog..awesome new...

Good points..especially the instagram bits. Sure,loyalty always plays a big role. Just didn’t picture Gully going to a German brand. Probably won’t be long til the first Gully goes Ebike video goes viral. Focus Ebikes are big in Europe

What a shame and it will be a big loss for RM if Geoff does leave. I always thought the RM Crew(with Thomas V, Geoff G, Wade Simmons, Brett T) we inseparable. I kinda always wonder what it takes for a brand like Focus to bring a personality and talented rider such as Geoff on board, I mean he literally...
