Tumbleweed Posted November 14, 2011 Share They've left Commencal and are rumored to be on GT next year. On the local front Johan Potgieter (pottie) and Stephan Garlicke has been picked up by Canfield Brothers for next year. The plan is to once again do all the European events. This time with propper race support. The team is apparently based in Austria. From what Pottie told me they will be getting full race support and all the bikes and kit that comes with that but no salaries. So any personal sponsors out there looking to invest in SA racing? Great news. Hopefully they get some backing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capricorn Posted January 8, 2012 Share Brendan's Scott. Wonder who the new beneficiaries of blackbox tech will be if the SCS are off it as well (Hill, Brosnan, Hart.. qui d'autre?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Omega Man Posted January 9, 2012 Share Andrew Neethling is on Blackbox. I think he's also a Red Bull rider now. Saw him at the MX track the other day wearing a Red Bull t shirt. It could just have been a t shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterWest Posted January 9, 2012 Share Apparently Brendan isn't riding the Voltage this year, something else... " No not racing on the voltage, just for pissing around on and for some whips In USA. You just wait for the downhill bike, going to be sweet." One of his tweets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capricorn Posted January 9, 2012 Share nice to hear needles getting some +rep from major sponsors. Yep Peter: rumormill suggesting it's a carbon frame from scott. wonder if it's rocking 27.5 wheels because it's rumored two major bike manufacturers, presumable Giant and Scott, placed massive orders from Fox for 27.5 compatible forks. No better place to test your high tech toys than the WC DH stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesley_r Posted January 10, 2012 Share Athertons now "officially" on GT http://athertonracing.co.uk/team/team-news/ http://video.mpora.com/watch/JNgqqW3UP/ Also they parted ways with Animal - looking at all the one industries clothing they're wearing, I'd guess that's their new clothing sponsor?

Nikolais Posted September 20, 2012 Share I reckon:Hill, Macdonald, Neethling, Peaty, Bryceland, Nick Beer, Brosnan, Stevie Smith, Hart, Brannigan. I dont really know what they mean by wanted though? I would think that guys like Peaty, Ratboy, Hill, Brosnan, Smith all have quite cushy deals that will run into next season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
