The CRC Team just looks so pinned and powerful on the new Scalps this season
Bummer to see the guys eat so much so earl.

Too much speed from the new build, eh

Really hope Matti doesn't get injured this season he always seems to have crap for luck with injuries but his resilience is beyond me he deserves a world title in my opinion.

The bad thing about dislocating a shoulder it becomes easier and easier each time you dislocated it and eventually you will have to go for shoulder reconstruction. My PE teacher sneezed and his shoulder came out and that is after 3 shoulder reconstructions. Hope Lewis does not dislocate it again

my shoulder used to dislocate any time i did anything for 3 years, then it would stay out until i got a doctor to pop it in again, no joke. I got a tendon re attached and its only happened once since. its the most annoying injury ever. hope you end up better than me

Damn I know how you feel breaking your knee cap. Broke mine biking after my first day of work at my brand new job. Boss wasn't happy and neither was I. I had to say goodbye to all my summer plans. But you just gotta make the best out of what you have!

Ouch, I totally know how they feel as I'm sitting here with a 2 week old wrist fracture with still 3 weeks to go before the cast gets off and god knows how long rehabilitation after that, when all I wanna do is get on the bike again. Early season injuries really are the worst.

Not trying to be smart ass, but I think those 661 knee pads are a little lacking on the Knee cap area. It doesnt take much to break it there. Maybe if they had some more Carbon fiber sewn in that area or just something more than fabric. Alot of Pros do use those pads I'm sure for their weight factor. I know they are light and all but what's the point really if all they do is save a little road rash. Get well soon guys. My wrist still hurts 9 years later after a nasty fracture and probable nerve damage.

Not many or almost none of the pro-riders would wear full-armor during the race. the max they wear is neckbrace, gloves, knee-guards and , of course, helmet. Could full-armor really slow their speed?

Interesting footage on both Leikonen and Buchanans crashes. Both of them had their respective knee pads ripped off entirely?

get real knee pads and stop using 60 frame shots in regular motion, it's gross.

Makes you wonder if hard knee pads could have prevented the brake?.
