Mille is regularly placed in the top 10 women in the world and last year she signed off her first World Cup podium, on the very technical Les Gets track. Her progression, her strong mental attitude and her commitment in terms of riding leaves no one in any doubt. She deserves to be fully supported to reach her goals! At only 20-years-old, she is based between Lillehammer (Norway) and Wales (UK).
"I'm too excited for this new opportunity! I think joining COMMENCAL/100% is going be a breath of fresh air! A lot to learn but all in good ways. The team seems sick and I couldn’t be more proud to be representing them in the coming years!"

Angel is a determined rider who, after several major injuries, has been able to achieve top 10 overall in the UCI World Cup twice as well as a third place in finals. He's got this amazing raw speed and fiery spirit necessary to smash podiums. He's a hard-working athlete who refines his riding style and pace management season after season. We can't wait to see him in the start gate very soon!
"As always, I’m super excited for this season, and having the chance to race for COMMENCAL as part of a bigger team is what I was looking for! I’m already familiar with nearly all the parts on the bike and the team kits always look amazing. I’m ready to give 100%!"

Either way this is an awesome roster, glad to see all five riders with a solid ride for 2022.
It would be good to have a list of the percentages of all the commencal teams. My guess is that 21% is the lowest, kind of the entry level World Cup team. They get the old 275 bikes. The next team is maybe 40% and they get the old platform 29ers. Next up the team rated at 60% which gets the old platform mullet bikes, and then you get the pink team that’s possibly close to 100% as well - maybe the new bikes in raw. Commencal 100% gets the new bike and some pimp AF paint jobs.
2x21 = 42
42=Answer to everything
21= half the answer?
Although does that imply that 100% is 100% of the answer? Or 1.00/42= 2.3% of the answer?
EDITED : oh the "racist" remark!

About as confusing as the Giant slalom at crankworks. This giant slalom? No, it’s a regular slalom. It’s just the Giant. Slalom.
Kade Edwards: Rode for Trek with the Athertons, started dating Tahnee, didnt move to Atherton Bikes when the siblings moved.
Mille: on the Atherton program for years, starts dating Kaos, no longer on the Atherton program.
Sponsored riders for Commencal who have a another part time job clearly ride for Commencal / 50%…
Also really happy to see Angel on the team.
