I just spit my water out, that was hilarious. Lighten up Francis.

That's all good and well but lets face some facts here - Cube bikes are junk (I worked closely with the brand at a distribution level), the kinematics were average at best and the frame failure rate we saw was out of control, more than 50% of carbon bikes sold came back with cracked frames and they were horrendously slow with turnaround time on replacement frames, always looking for excuses. Saracen is a walmart/whatever brand so no matter the caliber of the rider you'll never get results riding a piece of crap down the hill. Personality or not, Danny Hart...

Greg to Frameworks? Didn't they say they would have a 3rd rider who has podiumed at World cups?

Altenative solution then : the winner can ride in pants, but needs to have his legs's picture printed 360 degrees from the knee so it looks like shorts ? All the looks while having the protection and compliance with the rules. Just throwing ideas out there.

Apparently there was on of the omnious formula dc enduro forks for sale on a swis website. I was a bit o late to the party so another guy was given the nod. the seller told me that there is till plans to release but the covid crisis made it hardto get materials. So who knows. https://traildevils.ch/Market/Formula-Prototype-Selva-Dual-crown-29-180…

File the “backsweep” topic right next to the “should your handlebars be the same height as your seat when it’s fully extended” topic. These are not tech rumors. These are subjective, personal preference, opinions based on anecdotal evidence. Enough.

More pregnant bikes, more big motor, more big battery and more staggered wheels...kickstand??! I was really hoping ebikes were going towards SL version, like the rise or Levo SL. But now they are really an hybrid between a Moto and an bike. Different sport all together in my opinion.

Hey Guys, another update. Austin was one of the first people I called after getting hurt. We're buddies and talk/ride together fairly regularly. I let him know what was up and wanted to confirm that he was staying in Europe for the next month like I thought he was. He's racing Maribor this weekend and isn't planning on coming back home until after the WC in Switzerland next month either way. That was good news as he's easily ready to go if I pull out. I also contacted USAC to make sure they get him everything he needs to compete...
