All

AFAIK they only sold their product in motorsport but they saw that is not possible with MTB and they do sponsor specialized. They must have some sort of an agreement in order for specialized to run their logos. They cover the sram logos on the drivetrain.

Their hardly going to ride last years bike when repin for their companies. New year new bikes sell the old ones for some cash perks of the job. Anyways its the 5th already and bugger all news just me chewing through mobile data on holiday

Hum...I never hear stories of punters going thru 4-6 alloy rims over a race weekend....I get what you are saying and it certainly applies to things like hack shifting, but talk with some WC mechanics about rim consumption on rocky tracks over a race weekend and that certainly does not compare to your average punter. Back on topic: The Vital fellas seem pretty hot on Gwin's 2020 outlook. Still some Q's about who (if anyone) is replacing Moir. Speculation about this? Will his health, new team dynamics and a full year on the Intense allow him conjure up sweet baby...

New canyon Sender is 🔥

Koas Seagrave just posed a clip to his insta riding a Canyon Spectral that looked to be the CF 9.0 color way His "Grand Canyon" here Tahnee posted a vid of her doing a fancy lil Sui on what looks to be an updated sender Tanhee's Sender

agree..he is boring as f´´k and he does nothing for mtbiking...surviving the whole year with the yt´s new range photoshoot content...no racing, nothing interesting.. a revoier pal

Content creation is not what it used to be for young, white, tatted-up bro's riding bikes. Too many of those guys all doing the same thing. It's diluted and tired. The 'gram is all boomers now. Do you even tiktok bro?

Heard it’s because of his haircut

Most of the XC riders will stay where they are I think. Because of Olympics most of them already had contracts until end of 2020. The Bianchi team stopped, but that was already made public a while ago. Looks like Tempier will announce his new ride half Januari.

THAT was epic.

Legitimate in what way? He isn't a certified winner? He is a certified DRUGS CHEAT. Just like GRAVES is. Is Yeti destining to become the US Postal of Mountain biking? It sure does seem like it. Dirty cheats glossed over by the EWS as they don't want the smear.

I wouldn't disagree w/ you there Spomer, my comment was more aimed at the lower tier sponsorship deals. I would say however, I think Semenuk is worth more than Wibmer...

if there is any million-dollar rider out there, it's wibmer. his project vids are bonkers (concepts, quality, riding and views), his vlogs are consistent and do well, and he's a trials showman, engaging w/ uneducated crowds, face-to-face, at demos and shows. i hope he can get anything he asks for. he deserves it IMO. (note to soccer moms and dads in MTB - if you want your kid to make any kind of actual living riding bikes, send them to trials school : )

not so sure. i think a lot of ahtletes will end up with no contracts whatsoever. either brands realising they don't bring that much value or their sales are down already (can be temporarily oversaturated market or first sings of recession) i wasn't paying attention last year, but i don't remember that kind of carnage. correct me if i'm wrong.
