Old school DH is Nico and Anne-Caro . But mid school DH is Greg and Rachel . New school DH is Loic for men's and still Rachel Then if you talk XC then its definitely Nino and Gunn-Rita . Hard to pick best of ALL time , much easier to pick best of their time . .

7/15/2022 1:52pm

Lots of discussion today about not being able to recognize riders in Vital RAW. When rider kits (and even bike colors) change every world cup race, it can be tough to identify the racers as they blast by in a dust cloud or when covered in mud. right now, new number plates are assigned to riders at each race based on their UCI world cup overall ranking. so greg minnaar might have been #6 last week and this week he's #3 because he moved up in points. what if world cup went the MX route where riders have a...

The answer is simple: it's work that most avid riders can learn to do themselves... for everyone else, there are college students wrenching their way through school so they don't have to be a shop wrench for the rest of their lives... it's either that, or they put in their time toward the experience needed to eventually get their own shop so they can make a measly $40/year and pay another kid $20k to continue the cycle (no pun intended). Few wrench for long. All that said, I'd much rather wrench in a shop for $20k than sling pizzas at...

I cant see this working for the majority of MTB wheels.... Its great for an MX bike because their tires are so much thicker. But the average MTB tire is way to thin, you will still need sealant or you will be getting lots of flats. Also running your tires to low will just screw your rims up in no time at all. My current tubeless setup is fine. I can only see this working DH bikes where the tires are stronger and thicker. Happy to be proven wrong

Yeah.......if you could keep posting videos like this one, that would be great. Yeah. It's a pity he broke himself off at the beginning of the season - Brayton is one of those loose-cannons that is capable of winning a world cup if he keeps it together for a full run.

ardor Liked a product review Tested: Urge EndurOmatic Helmet

6/21/2013 8:58pm

by AJ Barlas There are some crazy and great things going on in the world of helmet technology right now, seemingly coinciding with the recent popularity of Enduro racing. Maybe the fact that riders want more coverage from a lid has been a large part of the shift, though to be honest I think more coverage is a good thing no matter what style of riding. For far too long we as mountain bikers were stuck with helmets designed for road but had a visor thrown on and labeled a "mountain bike helmet." A number of years ago there was...
