Here, let me start:



One rumour is a huge bicycle manufacturer has bought a Decidedly Worthy suspension design just to shelf it due to lawsuit fears. Turns out it is cheaper to buy than to 'fess-up.

Discuss & add.
























edit: Fck it! Just realised this is old news. Oh well, it's re-opened!

DW will showcase his new DH bike "Evil Bikes" at Crankworx... Thomas Vanderham will be one of his riders and Sam Hill will be another one once his contract ends.

i believe sam will ride for monster trek or giant monster.


ps, i posted the pic of that giant a while back :)
in the dw mountain cycle thread.

its funny how many pinkbike n00bs think the dw link is going to norco. its not funny because they think it ( because everything as of now is e-spec) but some people on there are 100 percent sure its going to norco, hehe

hmmm...how about Haro or Schwinn?? ;))

When DW said it will make a lot of monkeys happier I assume he went for a brand that will have a better market penetration and with a higher number of dealers/service centers. A brand that sales more units worldwide than IH, and is better represented overseas.

My first guess would be Giant due to the conflict above. BUT Giant already invested a lot in the research & marketing of the "maestro".
I would leave out Trek and Specialized as they have huge R&D divisions...
Somebody said something about Kona...they do have a dusty old 4 bar linkage borrowed patent...and I hope they will never get the dw...but we'll see
Turner is a very popular brand with WC heritage and would be nice the see what would come out of this marriage...

I would go and review the brands that took part at the World Cups for the last 14 years. Maybe the answer is there...Maybe the phoenix is there...and waited for Dave for a revival...

I am still on the first page plus I love posts with people who say the know but can't say anything. It takes me back to 4 grade when I listen in on what the girls talked about :bonk:

The Giant look good. No more information or pictures of the bike in stead of rumors.
