odd combo. not often you see that. I give it a year...
2012 team rumour and speculation
- Thread starter Straya
- Start date
CG on DVO/suntour - racing DH and (shudder...) enduro.

that article links to a VéloVert article... apparently for Enduro he'll be on Suntour suspension and riding 650b and 29r bikes.
CG is a one-man marketing machine.... "enduro", 650b, 29r, upside down forks, energy drink.... you name the buzz-word, and he's runnin' it somewhere on his jersey! (all he's missing is gear box...)

and hes making a good amount of money and has a boss house and some other cool businesses. All the power to him.
should have been clear: no sarcasm intended. I fully respect that he's making a good living out of it. and if he's helping with product development in spreading the "gospel" of mountain biking, then, yeah, more power to him. He's not just a good rider, but a good communicator too...
Team Lapierre were running Fox Suspension with SRAM shifting and Formula Brakes.
Racing ENDURO!
Yeahhh!
Oh, Brendog enters the Slopestyle scene. He is listed for the White Style in Leogang.
Where did you see or hear that or is that sarcasm ?
As at the NZ Nationals Blinki was riding boxxers and had not one fox sponsor on his top only sram and in the 100% clip for sponsoring loci bruni is also riding boxxers seen here

Oh Snap..........literally.
There is one thing lapierre bikes do: break like a mofo:
But they are pretty.
Maybe it's just retreating. It's a French thing.

I wonder why nobody has heard that Wyn Masters will be racing World Cups again next year.
He'll be in a German team along with Christian Textor and Tommy Herrmann, two fast German dudes.
Titel Sponsors will be Bulls Bikes and the mtb-rider magazine.
Bulls is a German "supermarket-company", they make super cheap bikes, but I read that their DH-Proto is going to be pretty good. They want to do it like Iron Horse did, they made super cheap bikes too, before they signed Sam Hill and used the DW-Link patent.
I don't know much about the bike, but the shock is going to go through the seattube...
They'll be racing all worldcups and are a registered UCI WC Team.
Bulls belongs to the ZEG company, which is pretty big in Germany and Europe, so this will be a real team, with mechanics and a manager, photo-guy and so on...

meh. not sure that many people care, to be honest.
this.
NSS, were=past tense as in last season.
That was clear for me. Just wanted to show it to Mr. peecee
Did you just abbreviate "No shlt Sherlock?"
Please say yes so I can lmao & rofl.
Oh yeah funny the things you see when you go back and read a post, sorry
Elementary my dear Watson.
That video was sick.
i'm looking forward to it when warner is trying to spell gstaad correctly 
man, that's a pretty stacked team. Patrick Thome on their bike seems like a good fit. he has the potential to really kill it this year.
also, having Claudio and Ben designing a bike park seems like a pretty good guarantee the place will be off the hook... a future destination for sure...
