I have a feeling Loic will get his first WC win this year. I really hope he can do it.

at 1:20 is that the wheel or the triangle bending? Sick edit, but i'd kind of expect no less.

Spoke tension. Noodles.

friendlyfoe (Jan 14, 2015 at 9:32)

yeah had a closer look in 1080p, triangle doesn't move its the spokes/wheels bending back and forth. Doesn't seem very confidence inspiring, or is that kind of the norm?

IF the wheel was uber stiff traction would be shit cornering , their suppose to flex

One-reason (Jan 14, 2015 at 10:12)

Pro's also run low spoke tension for better grip and cornering. Be too stiff would mean the tyres will loses traction easier

If you look the bike close-up pictures , you will realize it's because of the design of the rear link, creates much flex, typical single pivot issue...

oh no, you did not just say lapierre is a single pivot oh gawd

@HutchJR Yes he did. "The new bike utilizes a new linkage they’re calling the LST Super Link Technology. It’s a linkage actuated single pivot suspension system." link -http://www.sicklines.com/2014/06/17/lapierre-prototype-650b27-5-downhill-bike/

It's the spokes

adamconradx (Jan 15, 2015 at 8:32)

spokes are not the flexing things... the rim has pressure exerted on it, the spokes move in that direction. not the other way round

Intense4life (Jan 15, 2015 at 9:06)

The spokes don't make the rim flex... They allow it to under load. More tension on the spokes allow for less flex...less tension allows for more flex. It's the spokes.

the rhythm line in the opening shot, so perfect. Whistler needs something like that inbetween dirt merch and crabapple, looks like a scaled down outdoor mx track.
