Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 the urban section seems dangerous to me .... cause lets jsut think at what speed the top 30 men and Rachel will go into that
Jewbacca Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 I think it's rad... Brings in the risk/reward factor as opposed to just 'pinning' it... Adding in conditions and mixed terrain means that the fastest guy might not win, but rather the guy who makes the smartest decisions. Which in fairness, makes the racing better. If you have a crap tire supplier you will need to speak to them and discuss options. It's not a flat out chainless run to the bottom. Pretty awesome in my books...

Pretty awesome in my books...I think it's a perfect track for Sam Hill... if he were still doing DH.
Eddy Gordo Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 I thought it was an awesome track, cant wait to see the view from trail side, some proper huge features all over the place especially the gap over the wall, and then the Urban Assault will no doubt have some interesting ones too.

Stretch Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 This track is all about smoothness... We all know who is as smooth af..... If ratboy was not being a douchebag this would have been right down his street
Stretch Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 P.s... Is it not time to start a race specific thread?
Odinson Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 They teach is all about smoothness... We all know who is as smooth af..... If ratboy was not being a douchebag this would have been right down his street This track will definitely suit Bruni, Gwin, Minnaar and Brosnan. Bulldozers like McDonald might have a tough weekend.
Headshot Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 This track will definitely suit Bruni, Gwin, Minnaar and Brosnan. Bulldozers like McDonald might have a tough weekend. True, but poor Greg is on that fragile 29er wheel/tyre combo that cost him last seasons title...:-)
BaGearA Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 I know about these events , but the riders that perform there are the riders that perform at Hardline and Rampage and where do those okes end up at WC events ?
BaGearA Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 This track is all about smoothness... We all know who is as smooth af..... If ratboy was not being a douchebag this would have been right down his streetwe all miss the rat ...as much as we don't want to admit it
Stretch Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 I know about these events , but the riders that perform there are the riders that perform at Hardline and Rampage and where do those okes end up at WC events ?Very few of them compete in WC events... And the WC Guys that compete in those just do it for laughs
Chavo Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 True, but poor Greg is on that fragile 29er wheel/tyre combo that cost him last seasons title...:-)Hopefully Santa Cruz have addressed the "Minnaar-ster" issues from last season...
Piston ZA Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Hopefully Santa Cruz have addressed the "Minnaar-ster" issues from last season...I think SC dropped Enve, and are using their own rims this season, as far as I know
