They definitely don't look like 'the Athertons' anymore! Good luck this season guys! (...and Rachel!)

Miss the Animal/Commencal 'Atherton' look Frown

I'm sure everyone will get used to it though and they'll all be just as damn fast!!

This is just a test kid, team colours to come ( I think )
just kind of wired to see gee in such a big helmet, by the way what was their helmet sponsor last year? I couldnt find it out because it wasnt 661...

MrTeeGiant (Jan 18, 2012 at 14:23)

Rachel and Dan wore 661, but Gee got a seperate TLD deal for the last half of last year. Shame he didnt keep it Frown

dan also rocked a d3 for the last half of the year. those 661 helmets are just plain unsafe.

rhys-the-rider (Jan 18, 2012 at 21:14)

are they running cb mallets?

tstep3 (Jan 18, 2012 at 22:38)

yea the old ones and why did someone neg prop me?
http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/6983986/ is that not a d3?

MrTeeGiant (Jan 19, 2012 at 13:16)

well Dan did have a D3 as well but then he switched back to 661. I believe he wore a 661 MX Fenix helmet but maybe wrong. Now he wears the new Evo carbon.

he must not like the new mallets... they have been out for forever...

JonGales (Jan 18, 2012 at 13:37)

I dont understand why he uses crankbros at all, I've testes both those and the shimano DX and shimano was just faar ahead, adjustments etc... everything works perfektly, on mallets I had issues with nearly everything... and shimano is gold sponsor by the way.

Some people like the float that crankbro's pedals offer.

NorthEasternDH (Jan 20, 2012 at 5:49)

the simplicity, ability to swap parts, weight, and no-clog system is hard to beat... they kind of said, hey we dont need adjustments, ans with this pedal... they dont, its impressive (the pins are sweet to, you can ride em as flats if u cant clip back in in a race run, works....)
