  1. All I will say is that the bike helps (geometry, suspension curve etc), the setup (suspension, bike fit etc) is equally important and the rider skill, as well as fitness is the most important. Weight to me is not important at all, but probably helps when you're racing at the top. So yes... everything matters... What was the question again?
  2. Senna moved to Williams in his last season, because they had a better car. Then a rule change outlawed electronic aids which made their car one of the worst and most dangerous in the field. He never won another race and ultimately died tragically in that car. Anyway... as you were.
  3. Think the events are too complex to broadcast live... Highlights packages are very condensed. I also wish there was a better way of watching.
  4. So after a drivetrain upgrade I started having issues with the On One bike bought here on BikeHub last year. Unfortunately the derailleur hanger (part of frame) bent badly, was fixed and then had a catastrohic second failure in the middle of nowhere. RIP On One... Bought a frame and rear shock, again here on BikeHub and then transplanted everything else from the late On One frame (RIP). Had to change rear Hope hub to 12mm and get a new bottom bracket. Also changed the saddle to a new Fabric (very nice...) and this is the finished product I've been riding for the past few weeks! Still finding my rhythm, but it's a beast.
  5. Rheeder tricked throughout his run, while Lacondeguy only tricked loads towards the end. Rheeder's flat drop backflip was bigger than any of Lacondeguy's tricks. Rheeder also smoother and more tech (opposite/one footed can). He just did one trick less than Lacondeguy... I think he deserved it. Lacondeguy probably would have gotten it if he didn't crash on his second.
  6. Thanks man. Enjoying this bike. First ride yesterday... I feel very confident on it, but damn I'm unfit.
  7. Maybe... Please let me know when you're selling Simon.
  8. Greg for World Cup win this year... Just stay consistent! (...which is what he does.) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. I did not read the whole thread. Only checked to see if someone else already recommended Fabien's videos. They changed my riding style and made me a lot faster...
  10. Saw it cruising past me this afternoon. I was stuck in ridiculous traffic. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  14. Does that go on the back of a Land Rover? Think I saw it a few days ago...
  15. The Rand has been steadily improving since the Brexit scare... I'm hoping for better than expected pricing in a couple of months, when the first 2017s land here.
  16. Interviewer: 19 wins... What does that mean to you? (Such a crap question, always asked) Greg: Well, it means I won 19 times... (Classic!) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Starting to think Greg has this one in the bag... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. This one will be interesting. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Gwin, Brosnan or Atherton can still take this, but great run by Greg! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Just posted a thread as well. Sad news. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Absolutely brilliant, up to that very unfortunate mistake by Loic. Very interesting racing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. Well... Maybe it is a win for YT after all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
