The Complete Guide to the 2023 World Cup DH Teams
@yugurt: I heard a rumor they are working on a dedicated DH bike. I bet it will look a lot like Vikkelä. Onni's instagram post had the Vikkelä in it though.

Opinion: Why You Shouldn't Care What the Pros Ride
I'm pretty sure with this article Seb Stott is just trying to justify riding a bike that is just way too loooooong!
Also with this comment I am trying to justify liking bikes that are (a little) too short.

Video: What Handlebar Width Are Racers Using at the EWS Tweed Valley?
Yeah yeah this is like the fifth bar width feature in 2 years. Will you just go to the kit that matters: Boxers or briefs!?

First Look: Cavalerie Anakin V2 - A Gearbox Enduro Bike Made in France
@Glory831Guy: On their own gearboxes don't affect them. Now this layout with medium pivot with concentric chainring/belt pulley is going to have close to zero pedal kickback. For anti-squat it depends on how high the pivot is. (same for anti-rise as this is a single pivot)

5 Things We Learned From the 2022 Lourdes DH World Cup
I think still decicion to race was Myriams. And it should be hers to make. I know the DH racers are some rowdy crowd, and many will be in a race mindset ready to risk all. On this issue i am pro choice. After all it is their own head they are risking. Now in a case where the concussion would have impaired rational thinking (temporary amnesia etc.) she should (and would) have been removed from the race against her will.
My opinion it is all about informing the rider and letting them decide WITHOUT external pressure from teams.

Opinion: The Case For Being 'Over-Biked'
The real question is how does it descend relative to how it rides proper dirt jumps!
