Spotted EX MS Mondraker rider Mike Jones being handing a New 2024 Mondraker Summum at Dyfi Bike park last weekend. Seems to be riding with Bristol Based “Sterlands Cycle Service” riders who I know Mark Sterland the owner and Josh the Manager worked for MS Mondraker before. Apparently they're partnering up with Mondraker UK to develop a WC/National Team with Mike and another couple of riders Spotted in an Adam Brayton Vlog too!! Now this is something to get excited about. The King of the valleys is back!!!

is everyone gonna be surprised if/when macdonald signs with Forbidden?

Just announce the team at once, not this long drawn out process over a week with one rider at a time.

Jacob Dickson too no word about him.

Mondraker Factory Racing is here! But that doesn't mean we know who's riding for them...yet! Here is the timeline of what they intend to present us with: 16.01.2024 - 4PM CET - Presentation of the Team Name, sporting image and sponsors. No riders will be mentioned. 18.01.2024 - 4PM CET - First Rider: 22.01.2024 - 4PM CET - Second Rider: 24.01.2024 - 4PM CET - Third Rider: Here's what we know so far: MONDRAKER FACTORY RACING HAS ARRIVED! OUR FIRST EVER FACTORY DH RACE TEAM IS READY TO PUSH THE LIMITS Our roots are in racing. Our history is racing...

Factory team is Pinkerton, Norton, Dunne. Only question left is whether Farina sticks with MS or moves to Mondraker factory team??

Who ever placed those brake levers needs to be beaten with a shoe. Will be cool to see that thing on the WC stage.

Admittedly mostly stolen from Singletrack Mag, but here's what is still to be confirmed (from what I can remember) listed roughly in order of how strongly they are linked to a team/sponsor: David Trummer [Probably on MS Intense or equivalent team with Intense frames, all but confirmed] Angel Suarez leaves Primal Unno Project Race Team. [On Frameworks, all but confirmed] Ronan Dunne leaves Continental Nukeproof Factory Racing. [Probably on Mondraker, all but confirmed] Vali Holl leaves RockShox Trek Race Team. [Probably on YT] Ryan Pinkerton leave GT Factory Racing. [Probably on Mondraker] Dakota Norton leaves Intense Factory Racing. [Probably on...

Let's have a round up, shall we? What's confirmed, what's still hanging? As usual, I don't want to put in any work or time whatsoever, so if somebody else could just go ahead and whip those two lists up for us, that'd be great. TIA.

save those comments for the other site...

Intense Factory Racing 2024 reveal! https://www.vitalmtb.com/news/press-release/intense-factory-racing-2024…

Close...but, no. Gwins chain less run was on a specialized.

First one is Ollie Davis to Commencal Schwalbe Second one is Louise Ferguson to IFR Third one might be Elliot Heap. Looking at Instagram, Chain Reaction team has been rebranded to Nukeproof SRAM Factory Racing

BKs podcasts are so good as he just throws it out, $60k less budget compared to last year, riders keep the same salary and he takes the loss. And that sponsors are serious about reducing or even canceling enduro sponsorhip as there is simply no exposure from it. Also interesting bit about the Dyfi and how much that park does for the local comunity and that Dan has been elected as city council :D

A young Australian will be riding a baguette with German rubber... A radioactive Scot moving onto a concentrated new team... A fish out of water will be set free from his ball and chain...
