Anyone know why Greg Minaar isn't out in QT with the rest of the syndicate testing? Feels like its just making it so obvious there's a rift in the team.. especially with peaty's absence as well?
He’s just posted his first mtb ride after the crash recently. I don’t think there’s any chance he’s ready for a training camp trip.

Do you think the XC teams know they don't have to wear their lycra for the photos? I am sure that t shirts printed with sponsor logo's would work fine.

When you check out the full entry list, pretty much the whole World Cup roster is entered for it, will be well worth a watch. Also worth noting Jamie Edmonson is still entered under Rockshox Trek, so would take the "team" entered with a pinch of salt.
It will also confirm Millie Johnset to Canyon Collective Factory.
Is there ny mention of Rachael Atherton on that or any other entry lists?

CANYON CLLCTV ANNOUNCES MILLE JOHNSET WILL JOIN THEIR DH ROSTER
KOBLENZ, WEDNESDAY 25 JANUARY 2023 – The Canyon CLLCTV is proudly announcing an all-new DH racer in their 2023 line up. Scandinavian shredder Mille Johnset will join Troy Brosnan, Luca Shaw and Dante Silva on the Canyon CLLCTV Factory DH Team.
The 21-year-old Norwegian already has several years of racing and experience under her belt, chalking up multiple Elite victories and podium finishes on the world stage. Growing up just 3 hours from the iconic Hafjell bikepark, Mille began riding Downhill at 11 years old, and less than a year later scored her first National title. Ten years later, Mille has built incredible strength and talent on the bike to become one of the fastest riders in the women’s field.
“Mille has shown huge potential in recent seasons so it’s super exciting to welcome her onto the program. We're looking forward to working with her to unlock even more speed than she already has, helping her to target podium places in the upcoming season.” - Team mentor Fabien Barel is stoked to have Mille on board.
The Canyon CLLCTV DH Team has witnessed some phenomenal results since its inception in 2017, including podium finishes for Luca Shaw, and multiple World Cup wins and podiums for Troy Brosnan. With the addition to Mille to the squad, the team looks set to continue contesting for the top spots throughout this year’s UCI Downhill World Cup Series.
“I am super excited to be joining the CLLCTV. They are one of the best and most professional teams out here in my opinion and it’s an honour to be part of it. For me personally I think it’s the perfect timing to be joining their program. I never been more motivated or wanted it more. Working with the team, people and riders will be super good experience and I’m going to learn a lot. I’ve always been a fan of the Canyon brand and their bikes. Already after just a few weeks I feel so at home on the Sender. I'm super excited to see what we can do in 2023!” said Mille ahead of the 2023 season.
Canyon CLLCTV Factory DH Team is proud to work with some awesome partners on their hunt for podiums around the globe. SRAM, RockShox, Troy Lee Designs, DT Swiss, Maxxis, Crankbrothers, Ergon, E-13, Chris King, Dynamic Bike Care and Maurten will support the team in 2023.
The new season starts on June 8th in Lenzerheide, Switzerland. Follow all the action from the team on the Canyon CLLCTV Instagram account.
The "GIANT Swiss Enduro Team" is very happy to present the current German Champion U21, Lasse Eschler, as a new team rider!
Lasse was born in Germany in 2005, also has a German UCI license, but has lived in Switzerland since 2010.
He came to Enduro in 2021 via XC and road racing where he secured some top results with an impressive 5th place at the European championships U15 "Eliminator" in Italy 2019 and becoming 4th at XC U17 Swiss nationals 2021.
His first full season in 2022 in this discipline was immediately extremely successful with a 17th place at the EWS junior in Scotland and the German championship title U21 cat. in Willingen.
The goals for the coming season in the new team are to defend the title “German Champion” and to compete for victories and the podium in the Swiss Enduro Series. In the Enduro World Cup he is aiming for top 15 classifications - if things go really well why not going for a top 10!?
Lasse attends the sports high school in Bern and will graduate in 2024.
Mike Schuler has left the team and wants to devote more time to his job but will definitely continue to race! It was a great time with Mike whom we wish all the best for the future!
The 2022 season had ups and downs - Robin's 50th place at the EWS in Whistler was certainly outstanding - but there were also setbacks such as 2 missed World Cups for Robin due to illness and on Lars' side a handful of serious training crashes - in Canazei incl. helicopter-rescue - from the track to the hospital where luckily the injuries didn't turn out to be serious. Due to another rough training crash in Whistler with 3 bruised bones, Lars missed the 3 races in North America - a tough first season in the World Cup for him - he definitely "learned the lessons the hard way".
The team will be back in the new UCI Enduro World Cup in 2023 and will be involved nationally in the Swiss Enduro Series - all 3 riders will be fighting for podium places every time - with Lasse and Lars excitingly against each other in the U21 category.
Jessie in Canyon CLLTV Enduro team pleases me, super excited.
And he rides the Spectral because it's a little better than the Strive for training. It pulls up better. The Strive will probably be specially prepared for him and he'll get it later.
Wonder how big of a thing the switch from Fox/Shimano to sram/RS is going to be, as well as the more balanced rocky geo to über long front center/short rear on the canyons.
jesse if you’re reading this, what were some of the factors that made you move from a winning setup to something completely new?
This isn't really a 'team rumour' but moreso a move to MTB: Peter Sagan wants to stop racing exclusively WorldTour road at the end of this year and focus on Olympic MTB for Paris 2024
He seems to indicate he will stay on with his current road team (which as far as I know doesn't have an XC team), but they're on Specialized so he won't have to pull a Pidcock and run an unbranded frame to please sponsors.

Greg's already in the southern hemisphere (I assume he's home in SA). He doesn't need to travel to NZ to get some summer riding in like the others.
he's catching up with them at the end of the month in Australia
This is going to be great!
Christopher Grice confirmed on Gen-S for 2023
Do you think the XC teams know they don't have to wear their lycra for the photos? I am sure that t shirts printed with sponsor logo's would work fine.
Trek Factory Dh instagram showing Bodhi Khun listed with Kade, Loris and Reece as the team.
GM also hates flying. And it takes at least 3 flights (more likely 4) to get to Queenstown from either Andorra or PMB.
Is there ny mention of Rachael Atherton on that or any other entry lists?
He'll be at Cannonball Festival/Aus national champs in 2 weeks.
He was on the same rig at Buller the week before. I heard him confirm he is on FMD.
David Trummer isn´t old and has a lot of Talent, would be a interresting change if he choose another team.
trummer is home in austria but drove to italy (san remo probably) with andi kolb yesterday, proper pre season DH training.
and still on mondraker for this season and i think the next one.
The guy in the photo is Oliver Zwar.
Clues would be the bib number (https://www.alpinetiming.com.au/results/r362/) and the sponsor's sticker on his helmet.

Saw this on ben deakins story….
from ibis insta
Jesse melamed on canyon
Some more pics...
New drivetrain and crank represented too!
What a big suprise
naaht
everyone knew. anyway "so so sad"
And brakes. Those new levers do have a bit of the shimano’s about them.
Also looking at both the canyon pr’s - when did Troy Lee become the worst looking kit on the scene?

Also Jesse riding the Spectral, not the Strive? Anyway, will be interesting to see how he fares with the new gear...
So does their "Strive" Enduro suck?
Just like back in the days when all Speci riders rode the Stumpy instead of the old Enduro.
Jessie in Canyon CLLTV Enduro team pleases me, super excited.
And he rides the Spectral because it's a little better than the Strive for training. It pulls up better. The Strive will probably be specially prepared for him and he'll get it later.

A fatter pay cheque that has been well earned.
