Blenki deffo with Norco next year. Know nothing about Bruni, seems unlikely to leave Lapierre tough?Pretty heavy re the Athertons, got a source? Or just speculating?
Also, Loic and Blenki back on the same team. (According to an ambiguous post on Loic's IG)
Yeah I thought it unlikely too, possibly just lost in translation...Blenki deffo with Norco next year. Know nothing about Bruni, seems unlikely to leave Lapierre tough?
Not revealing my source!!! I do have afew more titbits but you'll have to work to get them.
Wow. If true then no doubt YT Industries will seriously be in the mix trying to score the trio. I couldn't imagine the guys going out on their own & not being a manufacturer's coveted DH team, particularly while Gee & Rach still have a solid few years ahead as WC winners/potential World Champions.For next season.....
.......i'll get the ball rolling.....Athertons no longer on GT, or Fox Shimano.
They're more of a streamlined model than a low-cost model. There would be nothing low cost about the way YT function- the make up of bikes & the roster of riders is indicative of their aspirations & intent.Will YT really want to spend serious money on a DH team? I didn't think that would fit with their low cost business model.
Still reckon he was better suited to the Session. Not surprised to hear he's shopping around, always believed there was more to the story with Trek than we heard.Rumor is Gwin wants off specialized factory racing, but still wants to ride their frame.
Word is he was asking 500k just to ride their frame and then persure other sponsors... maybe like a TLD / spec team or something
This I like, as much as I love to see Peaty ride I think its time for him to hang up his boots/take a pay cut or take a management role so Santa Cruz can take someone else on but they'll have to be a bit of a character which leaves out Hart haha.Bruni seems very chummy with the Santa Cruz guys in videos, speculate away
So you think that Jack Moir has nothing to offer then? Did his 10th place at the worlds in 2014 on that piece of shit bergamot mean nothing?but its probably the only way we may see Intense on the podium again.
+1 for Jack. Shit year, 2 collar bones. He'll be back.So you think that Jack Moir has nothing to offer then? Did his 10th place at the worlds in 2014 on that piece of shit bergamot mean nothing?
There is no way you will see Athertons on intense, they can't afford them just yet. Athertons will be on giant, it's been in the cards since mid 2014.
Jack who ? haha only joking but yeah he won't be on a podium any time soon I'm afraid, he may of had a 10th at the worlds but then again Damien Spagnolo got a 2nd worlds is a different ball game to the world cup series even thou Loic won this year he still feels that a world cup win would mean more to him than being overall world champ.So you think that Jack Moir has nothing to offer then?

The school holidays start today? :llama:In actual fact i could give a shit who's doing on what team as long as Sam Hill is 1st every race in 2016.
He will.In actual fact i could give a shit who's doing on what team as long as Sam Hill is 1st every race in 2016.
They'll go on a trek and find what they're afterThis I like, as much as I love to see Peaty ride I think its time for him to hang up his boots/take a pay cut or take a management role so Santa Cruz can take someone else on but they'll have to be a bit of a character which leaves out Hart haha.
I can't see the Athertons leaving Fox and probably not GT just as they have a huge budget but its probably the only way we may see Intense on the podium again.
That would work out nicely, Martin Whitely the owner of TWR is a douche and so is Gee. It's a match made in heaven really.Trek. There I said it.
Doesn't necessarily mean that TWR won't exist, technically there could be 2 teams on the same bike.Wonder where Brook & George will be going if that is the case.
