All

Still more understandable than Cedric screaming vowels in English.

I pay a whopping $2 a month to watch motorcross and supercross on Peacock. I'd do that for DH, but no more (especially with Rick and Cedric). Tiz-Cycling streamed all the WC DH finals last year. Sometimes the feed would get cut, but then a new one would pop up. I saw every final and paid zero $ to do so. I bet it will be out there again for free you'll just have to dig for it. We need a dedicated thread for that.....

There’s a motocross discord out there that magically provides streaming to members. Wonder if we couldn’t do the same with mtb racing.

No one watches. no one pays. no one knows that racing rules. and then my kids choose to play soccer we should bring NORBA venues back, make a national circuit, fill it with privateers and cover it with a vital broadcast. Raw preferred. there I said it

Its truly remarkable how much they are fucking up bike racing. I really wanted this to go well, and I had a pretty good amount of faith that Chris Ball was going to do a good job because of how cool the early enduro years were, but this is totally unacceptable. There are so many negatives coming with the new organization that I could see the riders striking. If I was a sponsor of World Cup racing, I'd be getting really worried thinking about how much the viewership is going to shrink with these changes. I want eyeballs on my...

maybe their strategy is to just make it less painless to go to the race instead of watch online?

Putting all my faith in tiz-cycling ...

That just freed up 7 Saturday mornings to ride bikes

The angle of the chain at the top/front of the chainring looks like there’s an idler pulley involved.

That is flat out dissregarding what and who probably (amongst a very few others) paved the way to what you froth arround today. Go play some minecraft now..

Just putting it out there that I saw Danny Hart at my local coffee shop in Queenstown this morning. maybe someone will spy him on a new bike up skyline soon??

MS team has existed in a number of different forms with different frame sponsors. Intense have been teasing it tagging Markus Stoeckl in their historic posts and the MS Mondraker ig posted a picture of Marcus riding an M1 from when he rode for intense. It's happening dude.

Breeden on the M1 with Ohlins. Trummer on the M1 with Fox. Dunne on what sure looks like the proto Mondraker with adjustable seatstay bridge.

Looks like Intense - MS is confirmed. David Trummer on what looks like a raw alloy M1

Not seen the video, but probably Roger Viera on the fury

It is sad, but the reality is bike purchases are heavily driven by aesthetics. In some ways you want to respect companies that cling to their image but is it really worth doing so at the expense of failing? Ibis adapted by getting rid of the swoopy top tube. But Intense is another example of a company that refuses to get rid of questionable branding and may go the way of the dodo if they don't adapt. Need to take ques from the brands gaining marketshare... i.e. WAO & Forbidden, clean lines & minimal branding. Bikes need to look sexy...
