Shaun is the correct spelling of this particular legend.

converse allstar shoes detected!

Those look more like Keds, which is even sicker in my opinion, not to nitpick....Looks like something Mr. Rogers used to slap on in the beginning of each episode. Baller.

They're definitely not Converse, they're too wide I believe. They could be Keds or classic Vans. Either way, it's awesome. He could probably dominate in dress shoes.

Huh, when did Palmer ride a Blur 4X?

coralcorn (May 29, 2009 at 17:14)

he is a syndicate rider. Its kinda new he doesnt do world cups yet atleast

reilly (May 29, 2009 at 18:06)

I read a press release a while ago stating that he would not be racing for the Syndicate.

coralcorn (May 29, 2009 at 18:20)

last i heard he was at the syndicate training when they closed northstar out for a day

seraph (May 29, 2009 at 18:42)

Huh, I thought Syndicate was co-sponsored by SRAM, though. I see a Shimano road derailleur.

coralcorn (May 29, 2009 at 21:53)

how can you tell wat derailler that is. its not possible its so blurry, he could just be sponsored by Santa Cruz now. I heard he was on syndicate but could be wrong

seraph (May 30, 2009 at 0:55)

It's either an Ultegra 6800 or Dura Ace 7800 ss cage derailleur. I can tell because I work with these things every day.

coralcorn (May 30, 2009 at 0:59)

alright well ur guess is better then mine. Im guessing he must be sponsored by SC and runs shimano components. I read earlier that he was riding syndicate but i guess i heard wrong or something

ptrsmmrs (May 30, 2009 at 3:32)

there were rumours going around that he would be riding for syndicate but i read a statement saying that he had only come along for the training at northstar and was using a syndicate bike as he didnt have a v10 at that point

seraph (May 30, 2009 at 10:17)

I have a feeling that Santa Cruz simply loaned him a bike so he could ride the track. That's definitely not a Syndicate Blur 4X, nor does it have full Syndicate sponsorship parts on it. It looks rather thrown together.

ptrsmmrs (May 30, 2009 at 10:34)

yeah, i think he's got some sort of deal going with Santa Cruz this year, not too sure though
