Bro. J Goldstone opting out of a local edition of Hardline? Come on. Reading that actually makes me hurt and angry. 😡 Boost Bro is always go. I’m logging out. That’s a ridiculous thing to say.

1/3/2026 9:34am I predict there is zero chance Jackson doesn't race BC Hardline unless he's injured.

1/2/2026 7:52am Looks like a Troy Carbon. The pic on the Devinci site shows a pretty long seat tube mast.

1/2/2026 7:31am More excited about this than pretty much anything else in 2026. I hope they announce it soon so I can book it off. Probably more excited about that than the World Cup stop in Whistler...

I think you're right on the 120-130mm bikes. I think bikes are going to divide into short travel bikes, ebikes, and DH bikes. Maybe not 2026 but at some point. And I bring this up because some folks don't know (literally a friend of mine was telling me how much they miss parmigiano reggiano but they haven't had it since they've become lactose intolerant): Aged hard cheeses have less lactose than younger and/or softer cheeses. If a person is intolerant, they might still be able to have parmesan, Romano, Manchego, and other aged hard cheeses. The aging process in cheese...

I've always just assumed so since he's a part-owner in Crestline.

12/30/2025 9:16am - the juniors will do well, but won't be a smooth transition to elite. - Jackson and Loic will continue to dominate, but a healthy Amaury will mix it up. Henri will be a regular on the podium - Vali on a Commencal and a stable team will be tough to beat. Being Canadian, I hope Gracey has another year...

12/29/2025 10:50am I've used a dremel with a polishing attachment and that's worked pretty well.

Since this has been one of the most prolific threads on the site, thanks for anyone who got things going, kept us informed or on the hook, or tossed everyone off the scent of that's was really happening until it did. And thanks for the Vital crew for switching to a yearly thread like team rumors.

tech rumors forum update - you've spoken and have been heard we'll lock out this thread at the end of the year (no matter what, it's just too darn big now), and will carry on with yearly tech rumors threads that will be stickied for easy participation. the 2026 thread is already underway here (not yet stickied) i just want to thank everyone for their feedback and insight on what this piece of the vital community means.

12/24/2025 8:25am I'm stuck at work on Christmas Eve, so here are some random thoughts that aren't impossible. Some I like, some I hate: Scott - I have no interest in every owning a Scott bike and not sure if it's the right fit, but the everyone seems to love the Gambler and their freeride team is kind of killing it. Brendog...

(breathing heavily) 'plz be a real brand, plz be free ride relevant' i've had anxiety about where Brage goes since GT paused. having to wait an entire year has NOT helped. have to imagine his stock allows him to go anywhere basically. having no inkling of a guess doesn't help either cuz he's such an independent entity. he doesn't hang out specifically with any particular group. just a self-sufficient viking... looking for a new Karvi

12/23/2025 2:09pm I could be reading this wrong, but looks like Brage and GT are officially over. Surprised it took this long for an actual announcement, but maybe they wanted to wait for all the Trolldom stuff to be released first? Maybe? https://www.instagram.com/reel/DSnyhjoDLrr/?igsh=MTJzb2Vhcm5obDJtbg==
