Stretch Posted December 12, 2020 Posted December 12, 2020 Loris Vergier leaving the Santa Cruz Syndicate: https://www.pinkbike.com/news/loris-vergier-parts-ways-with-the-syndicate-for-2021.html Not sure where he's going to. Since Danny Hart is no longer with Saracen, maybe there's a chance he could take Loris place? I think it could be cool He's going to specialized. Hairy and MrJacques 2
Stretch Posted December 12, 2020 Posted December 12, 2020 The bigger question is.. Who is taking loris spot...
Markellis Posted December 12, 2020 Posted December 12, 2020 (edited) Word is Emily is going to Canyon. Saw something on Instagram about her hubby having team in 2021 or something like that. Not a surprise her Trek contract wasn’t renewed if I’m honest Edited December 12, 2020 by Markellis Hairy 1
PhilipV Posted December 12, 2020 Posted December 12, 2020 Not a surprise her Trek contract wasn’t renewed if I’m honestShe may have had less than stellar results, but don't under estimate the value of her social media following. Add her long history at Trek into that as well. They may not have been willing to pay the same price she commanded the last couple of years, but that is pure speculation. Hairy and ChrisF 2

New generation coming through are going to get the factory rides. Hairy 1
Capricorn Posted December 13, 2020 Posted December 13, 2020 He's going to specialized.cynical perspective: Loris hero worships Loic. spesh knows this, Loic knows this. So Loic pulls him back under his shadow, just when Loris is starting to prove he is The Danger man to Loic's dominance. The Rumor mill that is Rob Warner, has it that Loris is going to a square-shaped brand. But specialized, or instagram account named Specialized, did 'welcome' Loris when he posted his exit announcement.

BikeisLife Posted December 29, 2020 Posted December 29, 2020 I recon the youngster Jamie will take his place. Where would a Frenchie go ... Commencal or Spaz to ride with Bruni?Heard from good authority that he’ll be a Trek man. Hairy 1
MrJacques Posted January 1, 2021 Posted January 1, 2021 (edited) Heard from good authority that he’ll be a Trek man. Your source was correct. https://racing.trekbikes.com/stories/tfr-downhill/meet-the-2021-trek-factory-racing-downhill-squad Edited January 1, 2021 by MrJacques Hairy 1
Hairy Posted January 1, 2021 Author Posted January 1, 2021 Your source was correct. https://racing.trekbikes.com/stories/tfr-downhill/meet-the-2021-trek-factory-racing-downhill-squadI would assume he would be the lead racer on that team?
Hairy Posted January 1, 2021 Author Posted January 1, 2021 Flip ..... Jordi must be heart broken .... or relieved that he is on RS for the new season MrJacques 1
