Specialized's New Epic Uncovered
@mtb-thetown: yes, the previous frame still had 2nd cage mounts there - the trouble was still on smaller frame sizes room for full sized water bottle for the xc marathon riders

Specialized's New Epic Uncovered
@sdaly: think it may have better implications for 2x full size water bottles - especially in smaller frame sizes

Video: Not Afraid to Fall - Brian Hall's Ride with Parkinson's
My goal is to participate .......
Best god damn video on pinkbike
As an ex bike shop gremlin, I have been in the same situation as the guy referenced to in this video - often too quick to judge even with our best intentions - this should highlight the first line of my comment to others working in the cycle retail industry

First Look: Yeti Goes Electric With the 160E
Thats a big ooof from the bank account. 10k for that spec? Really???? And we see that as being the norm (Yeti Fan Boys)
Yeti was always poor value for built bikes, even working in a UK Bike shop that dealt with a Yeti UK Distributor the staff pricing was awful
I would love to have one - I guess I'd be the stereotypical Yeti owner, scared to take it on more than red routes incase of warranty decline, plus only ride it on my local routes because I can't afford the travel cost to anywhere else ....

Mathieu Van Der Poel Signs With Alpecin Fenix Until 2025
@scissors888: I get what you mean, until recent years we are not used to seeing WT riders competing in other disciplines, CX makes sense in that World Championship happens in the alternate season (albeit Tour Down Under)
I'm still in awe from MVDP Amstel Gold race from 2019, shame his 2021 season has been a long sting of unfortunalities in both road and mtb
With Olympics out the way for sure 2022/23 will be an exciting cycling season to watch

Mathieu Van Der Poel Signs With Alpecin Fenix Until 2025
@scissors888: I feel most of it is down to riders choice, If you look at UCI MTB rankings and look at Pidcocks Team Name you will see its blank - probably because Pinarello do not supply mtb. But if we take a look at Wilier we see they have recently launched MTB under their name - so perhaps Pinarello will follow?
bear in mind he was racing a BMC for mtb, Specialized for cyclocross and Pinarello for road .. . . ..Im intrigued what will happen for the 2022 season - ie still has race support from Ineos in terms of kit, branded paddock set up in all 3 disciplines?
Pauline Ferrand Prevot was not held back in season when she was the first ever triple world champion, and that was her goal so why would any other team not follow?

Mathieu Van Der Poel Signs With Alpecin Fenix Until 2025
@Starch-Anton: that front puncture ruined his 2016 Rio olympics for sure (don,t forget he started right at the back of the field and jumped up to 3rd by the second lap?)
Plus his Andorra video that was recently shown he still has the passion for MTB - specialized needs someone to compete in the xc field for sure, would like to see him competing in the xcc seeing as Kershbaumer are not troubling the podium positions this season, Sarrou and Sina Frei on the other had ..... pretty damn good!

@scissors888: true with Sagan, dont forget that latest video of him in Andorra however .. .. . but to say not alot of world tour teams would allow is wrong - Jolander Neff has raced cx, Wout Van Aert has raced road and cx, Nino Shurter competed in National Swiss champion road races and for former team Mitchleton Scott (Orica Greenedge) .......
