stoic_machine Added a reply to UCI grant Discovery WC rights from 2023 to 2030
10/14/2023 7:06am I agree. I like Ric for the race preview scripts for DH XC and Enduro. Hell he can even do the post race recap but as far as commentary for the live races... There's just something he's missing. Let's bring In Needles and see how he does. If Rob is with Crankworx now we aren't going to see Needles commentating...

The frame is super easy to work on and is an amazing ride. Not sure where you got that they are hard to work on. I have been working on them for over a year and they are much better than the older frame and the riders love them.

10/10/2023 7:55am I'd imagine if Im at a level of racing where a sponsor was willing to do this I'd also be in the position to purchase several frames and do some testing to see what I like the most prior to choosing my race season frame. That GT has shown to throw down some fast times this year in the world...

Good eye! Looks like a Zeb, Super Deluxe coil and AXS dropper on it.

10/9/2023 5:14am He said that while what I would say was purposely wearing all the redbull gear he could find.... I think Kade and Trek are done

10/9/2023 5:06am You have worked on the new DH frame? What makes them a nightmare?

10/8/2023 7:49am • I think we are gonna see some big changes happen at Trek Factory Racing for next year for XC, Enduro and DH. • GT bicycles ends their factory race DH program but Wyn Masters has been secretly in the back rooms working on keeping the riders on the same team with GT being just the frame supplier. The team...

10/4/2023 7:39am So they must have just released it because Jordie in the MSA video said they didn't have all the info yet and that was echoed by Intense Mechanic in same video....

10/4/2023 6:03am Ooooh I don't think the finished to market bike will honestly look anything like this. I got a Hunch they are doing what Intense did with that mega rocker bike from last year. This Current mule from specialized is just providing answers for specialized I reckon . At best the chainstay will be what sticks around as it's tuneable flex...

Curious to know what inserts you were running as I have had the completely opposite experience, with cushcore helping to keep my tires ON the rim. the round noodle style inserts do seem to allow the tire to roll off the rim, while the cushcore almost clamps it on.

10/3/2023 8:55am What is this gps box you are talking about?
stoic_machine Added a reply to MTB Tech Rumors and Innovation
10/3/2023 8:44am I just stick with Tannus as they have done their intended job of eating some very poor line choices and I dont blow my hands up doing tire swaps or trail side stuff with the Tannus insert like I do with cushcore. Aaaand they keep weight down compared to other options and that seems like a nice bonus when everything...

10/3/2023 7:27am On the topic of tires inserts and sidewalls. I just raced the Sunpeaks Enduro up here in Snow Mexico and I spent my practice day on Conti Enduro casings with inserts only to peal my front and rear tire off the rim in different situations and scrambled to throw conti DH casings on the bike the night before. I decide...

10/3/2023 6:56am I wonder if this means YT has a new DH bike coming along as well. New big bike with new big rider coming into the team. Will be interesting seeing her dynamic in the moi moi TV videos next year if she joins the Mob.

9/27/2023 1:47pm At this point this bike feels more of Halo project for Specialized and I wouldn't be surprised if they just don't uncover it.

You got a year out of your idler!? Lucky! I got about 7 months lol. The NSB 7075 T7 idler is significantly better and the solid lube bearing is nice. Typically I'd agree trunnion is dumb but on these bikes with this design the issue most have with trunnion isn't an issue. It's being used correctly with trunnion being at the frame and not the rocker.

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...
