    Cannondale Topstone (arriving later this month) will take a 56mm up front and 52mm in the rear with big clearance. SuperX can take a 51mm up front with big clearance on that too.

    What stroke, Eye to Eye and mounting?

    Candice isn’t racing XCC.

    Hill2Hill had land issue on the route. Roag simply wasn't making money anymore.

    Have a Ryder one. Works great and pump noise is constant. Great for stage races as no need to rush to find a pump etc. Won't replace C02 for racing but it's great for day-to-day use and travelling. Will work on TPU tubes too, been tested.

    It will be almost impossible to build a S/M bike around the platform, there simply isn't enough space. Which means it will be for L/XL/XXL. The amount of consumers that actually ride bicycles is small, your economies of scale are small, which is why items are so expensive. So we are going to throw a new 'standard' in here to make it even more complex. Longer spokes. probably a new hub standard to make up for the spoke lengths, new forks etc etc. If the UCI bans this, it simply puts it on ice and the bike industry can carry on as normal. Davids post above is exactly how anyone in the industry feels about it.

    I sure hope this happens.

    Jayco/Greenedge ride CSixx on all their bikes, he’s one of their riders too.

    Definitely 24 hole Micro Spline hubs around, so you can run a 10-45 cassette with Deore/XT/XTR and build it up as mullet. Any DT Swiss hub will be able to run micro spline. Zero Two wheels also come with a MS option.

    Current GRX Di2 will work with XTR/XT/Deore Rear derailleur, I believe.

    I had an issue with these brakes from the clamp bolt on the STI. If you torqued the bolt to spec, it squashed the reservoir bladder and the brake wouldn't return nicely. Try loosen off the STI clamp bolt slightly and see if it helps.

    You can run a 5mm disc spacer for a Lefty50 hub to work on ocho. You can't run a Lefty60 hub on Lefty1.0 though.

    Became Cannondale Knurl tape. There’s some available locally.

    Hub tiger.

    Local tax being added.

    100% agreed. If it looks partially big on TV, it will be a lot bigger once on the actual bike.

    Try Cycle Lab. Think they are the agents.

    Guess it’s the travel to get there. But also makes no sense to me. If the course suites rider X, rider X is going to do two weekends in a row. Candice seems to be extremely strong, but she rather takes the B line down the tech section which costs her a lot of time each lap and energy to get back to the wheels too. Pity for her, because I think she would have won last week otherwise. Sucks that it’s the same course again, because it lessens her chances of winning again this week.
  22. BikeisLife
    Probably not. His main focus is on the road this year, XCO second. Assume he will rather do the EU XCO races.

    There is a Ryder Innovation Cage Mount that would be able to be mounted to the Top tube of a bike, this is done for kids bikes. Image attached for reference

    There’s stock in the country. There are some “grey imports” so Omnico won’t warranty units that aren’t imported by them.
