The best coverage of the day, even if it's focussed on just a few riders.

UCI & WBD Sports Cancel 2027 Enduro World Cup Season
Now the Squamish Enduro is gonna be the biggest race in the world. And there will be cool destinations around the planet that have races that will hopefully attract talent and money and bring exposure to new and exciting places to ride. Maybe Costa Rica, Columbia, Peru, Japan, who knows where!

Opinion: Handlebar Width is the Most Overlooked Element of Mountain Bike Fit
I think what is missing is the leverage of a certain width of bar on the front wheel, with a certain head angle. As head angles get slacker, you need more leverage to turn that wheel with the same amount of effort. The compression force of your arms at a certain width doesn't have much to do with bike handling, while the leverage and force applied to turn the bars certainly does. If you're on a slack bike and riding slowly in technical steep terrain, you'll need wide bars to accurately control steering without a ton of effort. As a Squamish rider at 5'10", riding a lot of steep technical trails on a 63.4 degree head angle bike, 780 bars are as narrow as I feel comfortable on. If you're pinning it racing, I think you can go narrower and it'll work well. So I'd say it's more to do with terrain, rider weight, and bike geometry than height.
