MrJacques Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 Giant have a proto 29er in Andorra. https://www.pinkbike.com/news/giant-prototype-29er-downhill-bike-vallnord-world-cup-dh-2019.html
MrJacques Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 Really feel for that kid. I hope he gets back soon. He 'won' the timed training
Duane_Bosch Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 https://www.pinkbike.com/news/giant-prototype-29er-downhill-bike-vallnord-world-cup-dh-2019.htmlSo NICE! I've become a Giant fan since my road bike. A short erse like me would probably have to run a leather butt patch tho.
MarcBurger Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 Can we take a minute to appreciate Theo Erlangsen showing everyone what really matters here.
MarcBurger Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 YEAH Tayho! That cable routing tho!Yirr! Maybe it's for epic barspi... oh wait.
Headshot Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 So NICE! I've become a Giant fan since my road bike. A short erse like me would probably have to run a leather butt patch tho.Do you think it will make Marcello and his merry band any faster? You know 29 and all... Also a 29 Reign in the pipe apparently.
Headshot Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 https://www.uci.org/mountain-bike/events/mercedes-benz-uci-mountain-bike-world-cup Look at Gwins position... will he even qualify, or is he protected? Clearly a glitch on the UCI site - that was probably time training. They start at 2 pm. Whew.
Odinson Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 Are points awarded in the FL for quali's? If the riders finished like they qualified, I'm going to bag some solid points. Fingers crossed!
Capricorn Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 Can we take a minute to appreciate Theo Erlangsen showing everyone what really matters here. cool and all, but this is racing now. I want that boy to go find that racing winning speed i know he has, and go for pole!
Stretch Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 https://www.uci.org/mountain-bike/events/mercedes-benz-uci-mountain-bike-world-cup Look at Gwins position... will he even qualify, or is he protected? Clearly a glitch on the UCI site - that was probably time training. They start at 2 pm. Whew.Gwinn and Greg still way off the pace though
BaGearA Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 If the race is the same as qualifying, then I'm in for some beeeeg points
Capricorn Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 Can we take a minute to appreciate Theo Erlangsen showing everyone what really matters here. what really mattered for this race was qualifying. I guess that showboating was him waving it goodbye. Quel dommage. I see Mik Hannah also failed to Q. What the heck is going on with the guy of late. He looks unhappy. Hell, even his sis looks unhappy, which ironically coincides with her more consistently good performances of late. I see the internet is also starting to think gwin looks at odds with the intense rig. But maybe it's just the additional burden of being team manager weighing him down. I have a sneaky that he doesn't give a hoot about world cup overall, is rather aiming for worlds. (again )
