Evil having some fun.

And poor Kona trying to release a backpacking hardtail on this day. I guess they didn't get the memo.

Sure seems like it.

No Way.

Hans Rey Announces New Partnerships with Bosch eBike Systems and Santa Cruz Bicycles The time has come, I’m excited to share that I’m starting new partnerships with Bosch eBike Systems and Santa Cruz Bicycles as an ambassador and key opinion leader (KOL). Both brands represent innovation, performance, and a strong connection to the cycling community—values that have always been important to me throughout my career. I have always highly regarded both brands and I’m more than excited to be partnering with them. At the same time, I’m proud to continue working with my long-term sponsors and partners who have supported...

I guess the cats out of the bag now that Rob Copeland ( peaty and others sports psychologist ) is the new Team Manager for the Syndicate. https://sheffieldolympiclegacypark.co.uk/professor-rob-copeland-steps-d…

The V+R Racing rider lineup for 2026... TL;DR It's Raina Logar, Zanna Logar and Aletha Ostgaard! Most folks on this forum are familiar with V+R, but briefly for those who aren't, Virginia and Ryan (V+R) are two DH superfans living in the Pacific Northwest. 2026 marks our seventh season sponsoring and supporting downhill racers and our fourth season at the World Cup level. Crazy! For '26 we've re-signed Aletha Ostgaard for her fourth season with V+R Racing! Ally races for Canyon Collective. Zanna Logar has also re-signed for a second season with V+R. Zanna races for Frameworks. So cool! Maybe...

With Thibaut on your team, most people aren’t going to care about why you made the move to bike racing. A lot of people are going to assume the worst about you, your team and your sponsors. This topic comes up every time he’s mentioned. It’s no coincidence that this was the only real question for you about the team. Who’s the 24/7 chaperone for Zoe? What’s the plan for keeping her feeling safe? An unsettled racer is just going to get hurt out on the track.

PB just did an interview with him. “ My relationship with Canyon is great. We're not working together in the future, but they were super nice about letting me go. I'll keep riding my Canyon bikes. I think they're really sick, so I'll keep most of those. And then I have a Trek Fuel EX that I'll be riding, and I just bought an Evil Offering. I've always had a thing for Evil bikes. I'm super excited to ride different bikes”
