  1. Geez. The oke thinks his bicycle is a skateboard or something. Freaking awesome video.
  2. That DYAD RT2 on that Cannondale is something else.
  3. Live race feed and tracking map: http://www.enduroworldseries.com/live/
  4. There is no live steam. You can only follow it on http://www.enduroworldseries.com or any of their social media pages. The 20 minutes highlight videos pretty much sum it up. Sent from my E5823 using Tapatalk
  5. Strange that people are having such problems with them falling out. Mine have only ever fallen out once and that's because my bars clipped a wire fence. I have fallen too many times to count, the Sahmurai Swords are super scratched up but still doing their job.
  6. Aha. Thanks for pointing that out. I saw the lumo lime colour and assumed they hadn't updated the website yet. Edit: you would think they would just make a new aluminium rear triangle so that could be boost as well. It's the carbon moulds that need to be used for a couple years, surely they could have changed up their aluminium. Sent from my E5823 using Tapatalk
  7. Caught a sneakpeak from an unnamed source of the 2017 Anthem X 29er 2 today. From the looks of it they have given the 2016 frame some white paint and slapped some leftover components on it. Is that the old XT M780 10speed groupset? And a SR Suntour fork? It's disappointing that the Anthem X hasn't received any of the R&D attention that the 27.5" received. No boost hubs? No forged carbon rocker? No new metric shock with trunnion mount? And this is personal preference but still no option for the shifter cables and dropper cable to be internally routed? Or is the 2017 Anthem X announcement still coming and the above picture is just a super cheap option for someone who doesn't mind old stuff?
  8. Look forward to the FS02 review.
  9. Tokyo 2020? His head really is in the clouds. He thinks it will be 2024 in 4 years time?
  10. I think baggy pants was battling to climb because of the short stem he slapped on there. I really enjoy a short stem on my Anthem X, but you can't expect the front to stay as planted as it does with the longer stem.
  11. Giant haven't made an Anthem X with a carbon rear swingarm since 2011-12 when they still had the Advanced SL models. Sent from my E5823 using Tapatalk
  12. Thanks for getting me through my dragged outFriday afternoon of work.

  14. Behind you guys all the way. One day when I'm rich I'll upgrade from my Anthem to a Fourstroke or Speedfox.
  15. I wouldn't say that Giant nailed it with the Trance X, but they were heading in the right direction. I the 69.5° HA was a bit steep for my liking. I would be amped if Giant brought back a 120-130mm 29er. Are you suggesting Nino is still going to ride a 27.5 on certain tracks? From what I have read it doesn't sound like it. Now that he can slam his bars into an agressive enough position on a 29er, his 'views have changed'.

  17. I like this type of competition, where it's not every single subscriber who gets an entry. The odds are in our favour.
  18. Ja shot Myles. I just got myself a GC account and 'Tapiriik'ed' the heck out of it. Going Suunto-Movescount-Strava-Tapariik-GC-Discovery is quite a process but atleast it will run automatically once it's all set up. However, Discovery is apparently working with Suunto to create a direct link before the end of this month. Will see what comes of that. Movescount and MapMyFitness aren't speaking to each other. Although you can 'add the connection' between the two, no files ever get sent accross.
  19. In my experience, optical wrist heart rate is pretty damn accurate. I have worn my Suunto chest strap and my wifes Tomtom Multisport HR to compare. The heartrate was either identical or 1 BMP difference. I'm super amped for this watch but as a mountain biker first and a triathlete second, I would not get the optical HR version. I prefer the watch mounted to the handebars for easy viewing, plus when the trail gets bumpy and the watch starts shaking around on your wrist, I imagine the optical HR wouldn't work so smoothly.
  20. One week to go #beantlemen...#jellytlemen...ag, I mean gentlemen.
