I wouldn't be surprised to here FMD wrapping it up. Kaos is done with racing and Tahnee can probably get more money on the open market than working for the family business. Tahnee made mention of taking over more of her career management on the Sleeper podcast. It wouldn't be a bad time to take retirement as the sponsorship dollars are looking more challenging. Wyn was talking a lot about getting into the broadcasting game on a video last week with Dean Lucas, once again this discussion becomes so much more interesting with the rumors of GT swirling. Could we...

They announced them a month or so ago but AFAIK aren't available retail yet. Pros have been running them all season. I agree, they look like an interesting alternative to ODI Elite Pros - maybe a little bit more cushion on the outer edge of the grip before the flange.

Yep i noticed that aswell. I know its not new but a few people I know would really benefit from going down in front rotor size as troys mechanic describes.

Makes sense, comfort on a bike can sometimes outweigh other performance upgrades to a frame/bike. To make the cliche F1 reference, lots of times when one driver gets an "upgrade package" for a race and their teammate is on the "old" package the teammate on the "old" package actually does better because they are used to the car.

that‘s actually a sensor, not a fender. rtfm.

Not a rumor or innovation per se but thought this was worth sharing (apologies if I missed it previously)

I get what you're saying, but even Ford and Chevy refer to "the new F150" or "the new Silverado" in their marketing materials, which proves that no one in the world actually treats these model names as if they're real names for people. They're object identifiers. I'm not the Charlie, and the Loic Bruni didn't win senior men's world champs last year, but Loic did win on a Demo 8 with the Ohlins DH38.

I'm guessing the Totem goodie box was packed full of spare seals and bushings. I never had a Totem, but all my friends that did said the forks always needed a rebuild and ate seals and bushings like cookie monster eats cookies.

jesus wept, The amount of whinging from you lot on a forum specifically about tech rumours and innovation is astounding to me. Primoz, man, like I said, theres tonnes of brand new XX1 out in the world, go buy it so you no longer have to worry. I can only assume you have tried AXS on your mtb, strangely everyone Ive spoken to that owns it, absolutely loves it. Ive seen many online complaints, but I dont put too much stock into that, cause often its people weirdly expressing opinions about something they know very little about those of you...
