9/2/2026 7:47am Once Jackson's sister showed up and surprised him in the pits, after that heartfelt hug, it was pretty much over for all the other senior men's racers. I think she deserves a cut of his winnings, just like his mechanic.

The threesome I never knew I wanted! Scrubbing under the other rider to land first is unbelievable commitment on both riders.

9/2/2026 5:54am The Sunday looks amazing. I'm also curious to see what the kinematics on the Garage Bike version worked out to be, because for all its praise, the OG Sunday had a pretty odd leverage curve with a big hammock in the last half of travel. I'm guessing you addressed that! Since you asked, my suggestion is that you try to tackle remaking and modernizing the old square tube Turner DHR. Everyone I knew that had one swore that it was the best riding bike they ever had, and they all regretted getting rid of it, despite the fact that it...

9/1/2026 11:01am Dude, dude, dude... hear me out: I agree that you'd ideally want to have cage spring forces that are lower in the big cogs for easier shifts while climbing and higher cage spring forces in the smaller cogs for greater chain retention and chain calming during descents, and yes the current arrangement on the new dual-spring Shimano RD's is kind of the opposite of that. You know what could be done by Shimano to reverse the derailleur cage spring force problem? You know what they could do? You know what? RAPID RISE IS BACK BABY!!!!! LOW NORMAL THIS IS YOUR...

9/1/2026 8:34am Man this is such a cool project. Always wanted a Sunday, just never happened. For me, that was the premier era of DH. Vital Raw and Sleeper edits keep that excitement going for me these days. If somehow that bike goes to production, I'd have a real hard time not picking one up.

9/1/2026 8:33am Incredible project to be part of, and an awesome creative escape for a contract engineer like Dan. Dan and I have worked on many projects together, and I’ve been lucky enough to spend some time in Champery with him the past two years. He’s an incredible bike engineer and absolute shredder. Getting to chase him down Verbier, Les Houches, Aosta Valley, Champery DH track the day after World Champs has truly been a treat. Dan hired me to take on the fabrication side of the project. Here’s some in process shots. Hopping on a plane shortly to go buy Dan...

9/1/2026 6:13am That's the experience that everyone my shop has set up on new di2 has had as well, and these are some of the most noise sensitive people I've ever worked with.

9/1/2026 6:13am I guess my experience with the new DI2 is unique, but I’ve been running the XTR version since the launch last year. It’s on my V2 Druid and Yeti MTe. Both bikes are quiet as a church mouse. Multiple weeks at bike parks, local Enduro races and weekly rips on my local trails. No noticeable chain slap from the rear mech. 🤷♂️

8/28/2026 9:02am Saw a clip of a pretty rough spill from Jackson in practice. Does not appear to have slowed him down too much. Apparently 2004 put up some fast racers. Bummer about Tyler Waite DNF'ing
