150r/160f with the ability to run 170f. Sounds like it’s coming in two different build kits. SDU/lyrik at 160 and vivid/zeb at 170. Longer chain stay, slacker HT, higher stack. Still not sure if it’s superboost or nor not, pls no…

Nina riding a new bike in msa

Not sure if this is allowed, but someone (@math) posted this photo in the tech rumour thread. Here's another look at Jackson's new teammate and Nina with an interesting looking rig.

Santa Cruz please put some bottle bosses on the next V10/driver 8 thing. It’s worth the extra 4 grams

new driver 8. bringing back old freeride bikes is so hot right now.

Can't argue with that man. What bike is Nina riding? Seems like a Proto Nomad/Megatower with a dual crown?

If you guys still think this is AI here is some other spy shots from today look at nina’s bike

Lmfao nice try Santa Cruz social media manager

Can't spell Andi without Ai 😉

Kolb to Syndicate Loz to Orbea for the 3 redbull helmets on 1 team.

@matvaillancourt1 posted this photo in 2025 team rumors thread. "spotted in MSA" - is it real? with teams having to be selected in the next month, stands to reason they'd get photoshoots done in MSA before everyone goes home.

regarding the neko / specialized thing...... IIRC that connection is because the rental fleet at Kanuga is all Specialized

There were a couple of clues in the live feed. As Kolb was climbing onto the stage whilst passing the race winning V10, Neko says " Is that his bike or Jacksons?", to which Rik replies "Careful!". In the interview Andi was asked why he was so happy to see Jackson beat Bruni. He gave a very diplomatic answer, which prompted Rik to say something like "He handled that question just as well as he handled his bike today". So I think Kolb to Syndicate is the done deal.

Also Neko has been smart to get non bike industry sponsors who have significantly bigger pockets, like loc-tite and WD40. Yes they don't have a team truck like Trek or Canyon, but that doesn't mean they're not able to pay well.

Asa signed for a couple of years with Frameworks. I'm sure he knows his worth, and I doubt he's taking a huge pay cut just to stay on Frameworks. This isn't one of those sports where guys are signing "team-friendly" deals, so I'd assume they're getting some funds from other sponsors/sources.

i just saw this on instagram: with kolb on the podium with luca and jackson, could this mean he is joining the syndicate. he is good friends with goldstone...
