could y'all not put spoilers in the article title and just go with 'Lenzerheide Winning Bike Check' or similar? Took me a couple days to get to watching the race and spoiled it scrolling the front page looking for something else Sad

in this case i didnt get to it until thursday, but the spoilers were posted ~24 hours after the replay was available, and usually im out riding on weekends and working monday and watch monday night or tuesday night depending on work.

You can't look at Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or ANY bike websites until after you watch. If you do, it will be there. The last two, I have avoided the internet and told friends not to text me. But each time I've accidentally sent the winner in either a FB post it IG pic when I errantly opened the apps out of habit. It's on us..the sites do what they can but they provide news, not vagueness

Still surprises me that there is no lower guide to keep the chain from shaking off the bottom of the chainring if they back pedal in chatter.
I know narrow/wide keep the bike from tossing a chain off the side of it, but with the length of chain from bottom pulley to chain ring and all the crazy contortions you see in slo mo or bottom out/compression images...to think the chain on a World Cup rig will guide itself back onto the chainring in a backpedal...

The benefits in shifting performance and lack of resistance at the cranks far out weigh the 0.001% chance of that happening. Especially with how dialed a world champs driveline is that's never really a concern.
