| Inside Line is a series about the highs and lows of racing plus the moments in-between. But who could have foreseen the extreme highs and devastating lows we'd experience in the weeks since Episode 1?
Episode 2 goes behind the scenes of the new Commencal DH bike prototype. Insight from the engineer and mechanics shows how they worked tirelessly in developing an ideal platform for the riders. Find out about the processes that went into the bike's making, the hurdles the team faced and the resulting achievements.
Our riders have been outstanding in terms of racing in 2021. Thibaut Dapréla and Amaury Pierron got the season rolling in the best possible way, with both riders on the podium at World Cup #1 in Leogang. Then, Thibaut secured his first Elite World Cup win in Les Gets; at just 20 years old, he's now leading the World Cup series overall. Myriam Nicole is on the form of her life and itching to prove her speed with the result she deserves.
Unfortunately, we can't ignore the brutal lows. Amaury's crash at the Les Arcs French Cup one week before Les Gets reminded us that goals and expectations can change in a matter of seconds. Thibaut's dramas at the same event shook everyone's nerves again.
The entire team has been through a mental and physical test in recent times. It's been challenging, but we overcome any problems in our path and keep moving forward.

Racism = bad
You weren’t aware? They’re also becoming green btw. Funny, first and last time I bought something from them it was heavy on packaging and useless plastic and even electronic goodies that went straight to the trash. And shortly after their useless sealant also went to the trash.

Clean your bike with water. It's does the same thing.
Buy different brand lubes/sealant. They're cheaper and do the same thing.
They're so desperate to sell it that they have to resort to dragging one of their sponsored riders over the coals for some marketing.
I will never buy a Muc-Off product again. Ever!
The pink cleaner is pretty good on motorbike wheels and swingarms. The dry lube is decent. The tyre sealant is absolute garbage.
If you just had to spray it on, hose it off and your bike was clean then it would be worth it.
What ever happens you have to use brushes/microfibres.
So just use water...
Do I think it's worth it? No. But it WAS nice not having to brush all the time.
Such a bummer
I wonder how many DH teams actually have a black manager. It’s really ironic that they stop sponsoring the one that does, in an attempt to score some virtue points...
