Added reply in a thread Unsanctioned Training at World Cup #1 in Losinj, Croatia?
Strong point. Another good example would be Bernard Kerr at VDS World Champs two years ago, getting fourth after having almost two days less practice. Pros are Pros and get it done, doesn't matter who has had more time on track... Gwin only ever does ... more »
Added a comment about video Flat Tires Upon Flat Tires - Losinj, Croatia World Cup DH Track with Vali Holl
That was a pretty funny BTS video. And I'm wondering if we'll see Squids on yoga mats here...laying on rocks for a week sounds fun.
Similarly, I'm thinking back to the days in MSA when riders were running 40 PSI in their tires...
Trummer looked really dialed in the beginning of the team video - precise and accurate riding looks more important than ever.

The Moreno Gap is still huge, end of story. Wade was pushing so hard so far ahead of his time.

Credit to Hank for having a reasonable-looking design...aesthetics are the first battleground with anything new! Things I'd like to know more about: Are the two planes independent? If not, where is the threshold for each, and how do they interact? Can ... more »
Added a comment about feature Danny MacAskill's Custom Trials Bike Represents the Future of Carbon for Santa Cruz
It is known that carbon fiber is regulated by Uncle Sam, but this is still intriguing, "...Department of Defense controlled, impact-resistant braided carbon coming through the lettering on the downtube." A new surplus leading to new material options?

A pang of nostalgia hit every time I viewed the shots and clips of Sam from the weekend; full spikes, with a ridiculous win margin...too good.

This is intriguing...
Added a comment about feature Introducing the Updated 2019 RockShox Lyrik and Super Deluxe
2019 air spring for sure. The Vorsprung option is just an expanded negative air, whereas RS's remodel is a whole new air seal (alloy with bushing) and an expanded neg air. One is an add-on, the other is a complete and more rounded improvement.
