Tall and lanky is not me haha. It's a good one though, I was surprised, and stoked, when I heard who.

Tall and lanky looking, Dunne maybe?

The Pierron's also have their own family run bike park in central France, and there is a Commencal facility somewhere too that seems to be specifically for their teams, and there are probably others that I am forgetting as well. The point about Moto style training facilities is definitely interesting, as historically mountain biking has always been a sport where the top pros and novices can be found riding the same places, and a shift towards more exclusive training zones could take away from this somewhat, although I struggle to see that happening as there are already so many great...

I took a break from the internet over the holidays so apologies if this has been discussed but just saw this: On January 1, 2024, legendary manager Martin Whitely announced that he would be bringing his services to the Frameworks team.

Some of the pics look like Greg. there is a comment on PB that other pics are GM’s mechanic Tom. great marketing on Norco’s part though, as lot of people are talking Norco lol

I agree, I think he will race for another year or two maybe longer but when he's done id bet this is his plan. Not only gives his team or other pros a place to train there but all the up and comers in the USA a place their parents can send them to for the season to train/ride boot camp style. This is all standard operating procedure for moto for a long time but anyways back to team rumors. Granted the industry and racing will probably have to improve before this is feasible but you have to think if...

I don't think Gwin will bow out of racing this coming year (I imagine he's going to want the cash flow from a salary while taking over a new business if nothing else). That being said, I think you're onto something with the Club MX comparison. Dak said that very thing on the B-Practice Podcast, talking about how MTB doesn't have a Club MX-style facility where you can go, have all your fitness/nutrition needs taken care of on-site, and have a controlled, supportive environment that simulates WC tracks and allows for accurate testing and training. I would imagine that it's...

I know it's Rumours, so we're not supposed to stamp them out...but people gotta stop thinking Gwin is gonna dump WC to go full time WindRock. It's absurd. Neko & Sean ran it for several years now without having to be present full time. Sean's infrastructure & logistics blueprint is firmly in place & peak summer isn't as demanding of ownership as fall/winter/spring. Hart & Atherton's have parks they don't drop WC for. It's a silly thought.

Peaty to Frameworks; Warner standing outside the pit ten just saying things about what's going on.

team rumors posting as tight as leogang race times. .02 off and you're in 14th place. (and @chriskief, you're right, i failed re: mobile site and author labels yesterday)

I appreciate the hope you all have for frameworks but I think a lot of you are holding it up to be the next syndicate-esque mega team or something. This is literally a passion project that Neko started very recently. He’s accomplished a lot but let’s not start assuming every big name is headed there.

I'd call it constructive criticism. The discussion was around choosing riders for a team and that the family plays a large role in how someone fits into a team. He used Danny and his dad as one of the examples.

Anyone know who runs the IFR IG account?

And Shimano drivetrain. Wheels look like Crankbrothers.

NFR and Norco just posted another teaser on the IG , looks like GM in the video clip as the new guy itching for a formal announcement 📢 lol 😂
