Shebeen Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 I see they don't seem to have live tracking anymore on the web. did they have it in 2021?
Jbr Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 Shurter had another puncture, it's incredible... I've been carrying tubes and plugs for 3 years on my MTB and never had to use one once so far (touching wood). Is Nino racing on Aspens even for Epic ? DieselnDust 1

It's just my opinion but I'd rather go with a slightly beefier tyre with better puncture resistance and know I should be ok for the stage. Expand Correct, they run Maxxis aspen super race on the rear. Its basically a slick tubby. They will have issues I feel all epic on this set up. Fred van Vlaanderen, ChrisF and DieselnDust 1 1 1
W@nted Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 Even the Scott backup team had a rear puncture just now. Those aspen tires look paper thin.
W@nted Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 Wow, amazing ride by Beers so far today. Well done recovering from that stomach bug. I hope he gets back to full flight before the end of the week. ChrisF, DieselnDust and peetwindhoek 3

Fred van Vlaanderen Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 Nino races this in XC... it is Maxxis Aspen race XC. Hoping this is not the choice for the Epic, because that would have issues. DieselnDust 1

W@nted Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 One of the Spez ladies dropper seat post is stuck in low position.
mikkelz Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 Dropper post failure on one of the leading ladies bikes? Just catching the tail-end of the discussion on the stream now.
mikkelz Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 Villafane + Hatten – seems like they're doing a battery swap of sorts.

Expand Either a battery swop or they just left it in the low position and pulled the entire seatpost out as far possible. love2fly and mikkelz 1 1
