Check Out: Mons Royale's SS 23 Apparel, A Tiny Torque Wrench & Key Lime Pie Protein Powder
It's remarkable how much more attractive these clothing pieces look on the new model, previously it was simply challenging to get fired up on anything shown.
Well done PB.

Results: Masters DH World Championships 2023
@bicitechmtb: Yeah, the difference is those Frenchies are fast AF! And would win just about ANYWHERE! How many UCI WC DH racers are from Argentina? Or Ecuador? Or how bout Chile?
How bout the newly formed EDR? See many Argentinian registered racers there?
If the Masters Worlds were held in Pakistan then it would be littered with Paki riders, I get that, but to call, or believe that ANY Paki racer is really a "World Champ" is a joke! Masters or otherwise!

Results: Masters DH World Championships 2023
@HughBonero: Agreed, difficult to truly hold a World Masters Championship without the results being "skewed" towards local riders. Having said that, Petr, Rowan and maybe Christian withstanding, the depth of riders in Europe, Asian Pacific and N. America greatly outweigh the S. American fields and it's unlikely ANY of the winners other than the above mentioned riders would see anywhere NEAR the top 10 if this were TRULY A INTERNATIONAL field. Not hating on anyone or discounting their accomplishments, just the cold, HARD SIMPLE TRUTH.

Results: Masters DH World Championships 2023
Petr Hanak with his 2nd straight DH Worlds Masters title! But let's be serious here, second year in a row being held in Argentina, thus the REMARKABLY disproportionate amount of Argentinian riders littering the results field. Not a SINGLE Canadian rider in the results, only eight Amercans and fewer than 10 riders from all European countries COMBINED! For those ASSHATS @ UCI to seriously consider this event a true representation of the fastest Masters DH'ers in the world is an absolute JOKE! No disrespect to the winners listed, especially Petr (he's a MONSTER on the bike) but this event would more accurately be referred to as the South American DH Championships.

Apr 11, 2023NEW Custom Trek Top Fuel 9.9 AXS
$4500 USDSelling a brand new custom "frame up" '23 Top Fuel build. This build is both lighter and has more travel than the $12k 9.9 AXS model, 90% of the bike is also 100% never seen a single mile new, only the XX1 Eagle chain and cassette are used (maybe 150 miles on each).
Exact spec list as follows:
OCLV Mountain Carbon, internal storage, tapered head tube, Knock Block 2.0, internal guided routing, downtube guard, magnesium rocker link, Mino Link, ABP, Boost148, 132mm travel, UDH compatible

SRAM G2 RSC brakeset with 16pc ti Better Bolts set, Galfer Wave 180 rotors f/r w/Galfer Pro pads, 12pc bronze ti rotor bolts
This bike is absolutely mint and would easily pass as "shop floor new" anywhere. I long shocked the rear end with a 55mm stroke shock, plenty of clearance at max compression with 132mm travel and I installed 130mm airspring in the fork. This Top Fuel blurs the XC/Downcountry/Trailbike category with basically 130/130 now, HA is digitally measured at 65.6 deg and SA 76.4 with existing travel. Weight as spec'd EXACTLY above without pedals and with existing cage is 25.92lbs, the $12k 9.9 XX1 AXS model in XL weighed 26.85lbs w/out pedals or any sealant in tires. There isn't a single Top Fuel up on PB even REMOTELY close to this deal. $350 worth of Better Bolts titanium bronze bolts on this bike.
Price INCLUDES shipping anywhere in the lower 48. Any fees associated with the purchase are the responsibility of the buyer. If the ad is still up, the bike is still available.

Mar 22, 2023NEW GEN 7 MADONE SLR 8.5 AXS *reduced*
$5100 USDSelling a brand new, just built from the frame up, Trek Gen 7 Madone SLR 8.5 AXS. This bike started off as a new $9050 '23 SLR 7 with a complete Ultegra Di2 build kit. Before a single mile was ridden, I stripped down the entire bike leaving only the frame & fork/hs intact. Built back up with a purposely spec'd brand new SRAM AXS kit using Red where the weight savings was "measurable". The custom wheelset uses Light Bicycle Falcon Pro series carbon rims, boutique Italian manufacturer Carbon-Ti hubs and Sapim CX-ray spokes. A 50mm mid-depth, durable, aerodynamic and very light 1310gr set.
Exact specs on the bike as follows:
800 Series OCLV Carbon, KVF (Kammtail Virtual Foil) tube shape, IsoFlow seat tube, invisible cable routing, 3S aero chain keeper, T47 BB, flat mount disc, 142x12mm thru axle
Madone KVF full carbon, tapered carbon steerer, internal brake routing, flat mount disc, carbon dropouts, 12x100mm thru axle
Madone aero carbon internal seatmast cap, integrated light mount, 0mm offset
Madone Integrated handlebar/stem, OCLV Carbon, 420mm width, 100mm stem length
- new Arundel black cork tape
RED AXS crankset w/power meter, 48/35, DUB, 172.5mm length
RED XG-1290, 10-28, 12 speed cassette
RED D1, 12 speed chain
Force AXS 12spd electronic shift/hydraulic lever set w/remote under-bar blip shifters
Force AXS rear der w/Nova Ride carbon ceramic OSPW and 3pc Better Bolts rainbow ti bolt kit
Force AXS front der
Wheels Manufacturing T47 ceramic bb
Force eTap AXS hydraulic disc brakeset w/Better Bolts rainbow ti caliper body, brake pad retainer and flat mount bolts.
Aican ultralight floating disc rotors, 160mm F&R w/rainbow ti rotor bolts
Carbon-Ti 24h X-hub SP disc, 12mm hubset, polished silver, 56t 4 pawl ratchet
Light Bicycle Falcon Pro WR50 carbon rim, 24h, hookless, tubeless, 50mm depth, 25mm ID, 32mm OD
Sapim CX-Ray spokes w/aluminum silver Polyax nipples
ENVE SES tubeless 29c tires
Fizik Aliante braided carbon rail saddle
Complete weight with Look Keo Blade carbon pedals, two cages and computer mount (cages & mount incld) is exactly 16.32lbs...... over .5lb lighter than the top spec $13,200 Madone SLR 9 AXS. This bike is absolutely flawless, it is "just came off the stand " new condition. The stock SLR 7 AXS model with a complete Force AXS kit and a MUCH heavier and inferior Aeolus Pro 51 wheelset will set you back well over $10k with tax and weighs over 1.5lbs more than this bike. The bike is "as new" and has not been reg'd yet, full warranty applies, original receipt, all Blendr mounts and AXS battery charger included. I'm happy to take any additional requested photos to further detail the condition of the bike. You will not find ANY Madone, Gen 7 or otherwise, that is even remotely close to this deal or condition.
