 @THomer I think Sam's bike has 650B wheels
  • 9 2
 Sam has been on 650B wheels all year, with the exception of Cairns because the 650B Pulse wasn't ready yet. He rode a custom 650B Mega AM in Pietermaritzburg.

 Actually he's on 26. Vital did a bike check with him a few weeks ago and he is running full aluminum frame on flats with 26" wheels and total build weighs 38.7lbs give or take a few ounces. To be more correct.

 @Mtbguy87, that was more than a few weeks ago. Like I said, he rode the 26" in Cairns (and only in Cairns) because the 650B Pulse wasn't ready. He's been on the 650B Pulse since Fort William.

 FOR f*ck'S SAKE why would you check comments when you know most of them are cheering the winner ??? just watch the damn (live) replay and quit whining about spoilers because you are messing with it when you choose to read the comments

 Click the link to watch. And boom. Its there. There result. That's lame. Its not like I had a choice. Why would I go looking for it when I don't want to see it.

 Red Bull....SHOOT YOUR PROGRAMMERS!!!! They need to learn to write code for the player so it buffers more before display or something. (No I.T. guy so that's all I have). Man the Red Bull player SUCKS!! Hahaha!

 I was sad in Fort Bill that Troy did beat Sam, but seeing Troy cheering for Sam and being super supportive there on a podium just made me happy.... The fight between Zmaster and Student is still on Smile

 I'm so confused - don't know whats more exciting - Hill winning, Ratboy's run or the fact its only a short wait until the next race - WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

 Somebody called that a "mans track". And indeed it is. However, the ladies times (compared to the gents) are preeeeetty damn fast. Manon is up there in the mens field among guys who are the best of the best in their respective country. Good on the ladies, nice work!

 Well, this morning, I put on my Sam Hill 5.10s, and thought, "yeah, he's gonna win it." Guess what? He did. What does that mean? That I happened to have bought a pair of shoes inspired by a legend, nothing else.*

Well done, Sam! Super stoked for ya, congrats!

*though my ride this morning was g&ddamn good.

 Stoked for Hill , even shed a tear , he wanted it bad .... and Ratboy is in this thing for the long haul !! things are heating up !

 lightest bike-no clips-no still smoked everyone - yep. Now can we stop thinking clips and weight weenie bikes make any difference. If you have a decent bike and ride what makes you comfortable you can win.

 2nd place was on 26... I don't give a rats ass but 2nd was on 26. I'd be interested to see some real time splits and comparisons in the wheel sizes. Not trying to start a debate!! Just interested in the real difference.
  • 5 1
 @Reignonme...Bryceland was on the debut 650b V10, and Hart was on the 650b prototype Glory. Nobody on the podium was on 26 inch.

 @Reignonme
It's been on every mtb website all week. Santa Cruz's new V-10 is 650B. www.pinkbike.com/news/santa-cruz-650b-v10-mont-sainte-anne-world-cup.html
So is the new Demo. www.pinkbike.com/news/2015-specialized-s-works-demo-mont-saint-anne-world-cup-2014.html
Every rider in elite men's top ten was on a 650B bike.
  • 4 1
 650b may be faster (not proven yet) )but nobody can convince me they are more fun to ride than 26". I hope manufacturers realize that and keep producing 26" frames, forks, rims, etc.. for 'old-fashioned' riders like me Big Grin
  • 1 1
 I stand corrected. I thought the announcer said he was on 26...
  • 1 1
 After re watching he says last man to win a world cup on 26... team kona is still only team on 26... etc. my bad. Still interested in the difference though.

 Guessing them can run their stuff tighter without it looking tighter ?

 Troy is wearing the vest because he is the current overall leader. Manon is wearing one as well.
