Serious BS on the DQ. If they didn't DQ Rachel at Windam a couple years ago, there's no way Minnaar gets one today. Cool story on the shoes, though...it would be pretty surreal if Gee approached me track-side and asked to swap shoes. Stoked Ratboy, Neko and Hill put down solid runs as well. Looking forward to the next round @ Ft. Bill!!! ***edit*** I wonder if there's a rule somewhere that disallows riders from borrowing equipment from spectators much like they have in XC. If so, Ratboy got robbed!

I think what I need to really see is a 1920 x 1080 version of that Danny Hart pan-o-matic. That's a friggin schweet shot.

How about our boy Neko Mullaly in 7th - best effort of his career, only 2.7 seconds off the pace! Crush it Neko! Happy to see Gwin shut everyone up, at least partially.

Reach is explained here - http://www.pinkbike.com/news/08ReachStackStandard.html The seat tube angle is quite a bit steeper on this new model which gives the appearance of the top tube lengths being about the same, but the distance between your feet and hands is greater.

1/28/2014 9:56am
Reviewed by John Hauer and Jess Pedersen // Photos by Shawn Spomer and Lear Miller It’s bold, it’s black and it looks bad ass. When Giant converted the majority of their bikes to the 27.5-inch wheel last year, they also took the time to completely redesign the Trance. Fueled by the Enduro craze (and no-doubt their own squad of shredders), the rowdier than standard Trance Advanced SX 27.5 was born. Sporting 140mm of rear wheel travel, 160mm up front and a list of components that’s certainly race worthy, this one appears ready to rally. Sedona, Arizona served as the perfect...

Reviewed by Steve Wentz, Evan Turpen and Brandon Turman // Photos by Shawn Spomer and Lear Miller For 2014, Yeti Cycles combined their proven Switch Technology suspension platform and some newfangled 27.5-inch wheels to create the SB75. After having a great experience on the SB66 Carbon and watching Jared Graves lay the hammer down on his SB66 time and time again during the Enduro World Series, it goes without saying that we had high hopes for the SB75. Is the new bike a better version of the original Super Bike, or is it an entirely different ride? Sedona, Arizona served...

1/20/2014 4:26pm
Reviewed by Evan Turpen and Brandon Turman // Photos by Shawn Spomer and Lear Miller Introduced in late 2013, the Carbine 29 is the first long-travel enduro 29er from Intense Cycles. It has a full carbon front triangle and carbon swingarm linked together by two counter-rotating CNC’d aluminum VPP links with options for either 127 or 140mm of rear travel. Complete with the well-regarded 160mm RockShox Pike fork, this rig is designed to tackle anything you can throw at it. With that in mind, we pedaled up and pointed it down some of the rowdiest descents Sedona, Arizona has to...

I think part of the reason you have not heard tons of accolades from other media outlets in regards to DVO, is because very few have been able to test one. Vital was granted one of the most (and only) in depth test sessions to date.

Delivered in a well-executed unexcited monotone manner. Perhaps coincidentally, that happens to describe my reaction to this award.
