With how long they’ve been testing this bike, I’ve had ample time to save the pennies. I have heard that there could be a few smart builds of this new rig that’ll be sub 10k CAD. Still not cheap by any means, but cheaper than say… a new Demo or V10.

From Minnaar’s lastest instagram post: a couple screenshots of the Team DH proto. I can’t wait for this bike to get released for us pigeons.

This is basically me. Just converted my HP Range to a downhill bike, and I also have a Range VLT. I still want a third bike though. Actually have my eye on an aggressive hard tail. If not that, an Optic…

2 things. So I used to use lock ons and tried slips on and I cant get back. Theyre muuuch better. I prefer the Renthal Kevlars personally. The other thing is backsweep and upsweep can make a huge difference. Renthal is one of the few companies with a 7° backsweep and if I go to 8° or more I get severe wrist pain and pain in my pink knuckle region. I just have hands that want to be pointing straight on. May need to try different setups.

I'm not sure if this is an indication it's close to release, but Norco just posted pics of the dh bike ahead of Korea and it's got "Team DH" printed on the top tube. Would be cool (and make sense) if they went back to the Team DH name for the race bike.

You just gave me a really bad idea about doing two brakes at the same time, man.

Unfortunately, a 140 mm head tube makes running a dual crown difficult. Oh wait…

With Dupelle as Dak’s mechanic, I’m praying we get a Dak sighting at Bromont this summer.

sspomer Liked a forum topic PIT BITS - iXS European DH Cup 1

4/11/2026 12:29pm

The first round of the 2026 iXS European Downhill Cup is taking place in Portugal this weekend. With World Cup #1 just around the corner, there are some Elite heavyweights getting their last cobwebs shaken among a field of regional racers. Rick Schubert cruised the pits to see if there was anything interesting. Lo and behold, there was. A lot of the bikes and brands aren't super familiar to us stateside, so drop your knowledge in the comments.
