Hairy Posted February 27, 2018 Author Posted February 27, 2018 that's a lot of wrap just to hide a shockwhiz some believe he is concealing a water bottle
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 is that a 27.5?yes. Unless they've re-branded a development Aquila 29 tyre as a 275.
Capricorn Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 Fox Live Valve system + telemetry. why hide something already revealed back in 2015? I'm hoping you have insider info other than what is effectively old news.
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 why hide something already revealed back in 2015? I'm hoping you have insider info other than what is effectively old news.May it just be as simple as wanting to prevent the wires from flapping around and being caught on something? Protecting the equipment as well?
Odinson Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 why hide something already revealed back in 2015? I'm hoping you have insider info other than what is effectively old news. Listen, me and G-dawg are tight like that. He gives me all them juicy scoops. Just kidding. Just regurgitating what I read on PB. In all likelihood it is just telemetry and perhaps something new from FOX.
Capricorn Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 May it just be as simple as wanting to prevent the wires from flapping around and being caught on something? Protecting the equipment as well? i guess they don't have tie wraps in that part of the world..
Headshot Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 that's a lot of wrap just to hide a shockwhiz Its actually just a Capra in drag. They said it could work as a dh bike and this track is enduro bike friendly they say...

Duane_Bosch Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 Back in a Bell. Gonna be in the M place when they have French Champs There. Gonna be Raaaaaaaaadd. Mini World Cup. Bruni, Vergier. Erm. Some other fastish guys maybe? Bruni, Vergier......... Duraaaaan. Bruni.
Headshot Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 I see that there are more and more 29er DH bikes in the pipeline. It will be interesting to see who is and who isn't bothering. Gwin has said he loves his 29er Jeffsy so maybe... Blenki has been testing one and the Commencal, Intense, SC and Trek are far down the road. That said, I can't see 27.5 going anywhere soon. Thoughts?
Hairy Posted February 27, 2018 Author Posted February 27, 2018 Maybe he has a great paint job he does not want to get scratched up
