those polygon bikes look amazing!
theyre so distinctive and its nice to see a different approach on suspension design ..
great looking bikes and great team!
looking foward to seeing what sik mik has for south africa!
As much as I cheered for Graves when he jumped into DH hoping he would take a win soon, I seriously doubt that he would place top 5 in South Africa. The top 10 places are already very crowded, you might be forgetting about Bulldog, Smith, Brendog, Loic Bruni, Troy Brosnan, A.Gwin, Ratboy, Danny Hart, Marcelo Guitierrez (whom by the way is having a good season).
However, many things can happen on race day. Realistically, I hope he can at least classified among the top 20.
You have to pedal this year gentlemen, don't forget it! Honestely, it's hard to imagine guys like Brandog, Bruni, Blenki or Hill on the top spots... I would rather see guys like Atherton, Minnaar, Gwin or Hannah. back to the main subject, i really like this team, it makes me feel they are a lil' family, pretty cool, and this edit is perfect!
Sorry about forgetting some of the superstars lads, its a close field. Although I still hope Graves has the spice, remember he came 6th last year and made up 12 positions on the pedal section.
But this year, he came to the worlds with a whole season of enduro(in which the level was f@cking high), maybe He is a bit tired, huh?? But i wish him a good result though, he deserves it!
Isn't this a flat track with a lot of pedalling? And doesn't Sam Hill hate pedalling? I would love him to take another world champs, but I don't see him doing it in South Africa.
My top five would be Smith, Atherton, Minnaar, Hannah, Graves. But all that said, there is no doubt I'll be rooting for Peaty the most! He needs his rainbow stripes!
im thinking andrew neethling will be up there .. it is his home country and thats always a boost, same with minnaar..
cant really predict anything in racing as anything can happen but in my opinion the top 5 will be:
greg minnaar. andrew neethling. gee atherton. mick hannah. brook macdonald .. loic bruini i think would do well here aswell as he doesnt seem to have a specific track he's just fast everywhere.
I think we should do a poll on who we think will be top 5 at worldchamps! ANYONE! Im gonna say ,minnar,mick,gee,smith an gwin!!! Mab even in that same order!? Anyone else wanna throw in?
Mick is consistently in the mix when it comes to Worlds, hope he has it in him to take it from Minnaar and Gee. Graves is definitely a wild card with all that enduro behind him. Its a battle for 5th between Sam and Troy I reckon. Gwin I don't think is in the mix this year.

You can't deny his fitness this year. He's a contender for sure.
1:39 sick!
