I'm in USA and didn't receive any response or confirm of request the first time from Bikeyoke, so I just resubmitted my info.
This is what's right with The Industry®

Thank you, the internet was fighting me.
I'm certainly no foes stan, but that looks pretty good to me.
don't tell my dh and enduro bike.
never claimed to be.
And there's a new M1. Intense Vs. Foes.Crazy times that Brent Foes gets Sam Hill on his bikes.
S A M H I L L on Instagram: "Pretty stoked to be working with the iconic Foes brand and Brent Foes on an exciting new project.

Good for Foes, but also pretty embarrassing that a larger brand wouldn't give Hill a seat. Maybe if he broke his neck a few times doing freeride stunts to wow non-riders at their office jobs he'd get a better sponsor.
is it though? given how tight team/race budgets are, and the fact that he doesn't seem to be planning a full schedule / season of racing I don't find it hard to believe at all.
LMK if you get a response, I never got anything back for my original submittal either. Wondering if I should re-submit, but it's "open" until the end of June.
I just got my reply overnight with an approval and a service tag number to put on when I take the post in for upgrade.
I don't think BikeYoke is a massive company so there's a chance he's creating all these RAs manually
When did you submit? Mine was May 1st in Murica.
bikeyoke does have a US service center, but maybe they’re inundated.
Can you spare a minute to help this campaign?

This could go in whats wrong or whats right depending how you read it but point 3 in this article
covers that Monster Energy currently offering more money for podiums than the UCI is paying the juniors. Regardless of people's opinions on sugary energy drinks etc both Red Bull and Monster have done and are doing more to keep the sport alive than the actual bike industry/UCI are.

I'm pretty sure the prize money is decided by some old bastard who rants about "back in my day, a tuppence would buy a bag of sweeties and a bar of chocolate. What more could the children want after a bicycle race?"
This is my favorite helmet ever, it's a Kask Caipri, it has no MIPS or anything similar, it's light, it protects my bald head from the sun, the side straps are adjustable, the clasp is to the side rather than under your chin, it doesn't have many sharp edges so it is more likely to slide when I do go helmet to dirt than a boi racer style with an aero wing and sharp angles.
Oh, and it's made in the place it was designed.
I went from an O'Neal MIPS helmet to a Bontrager Wave cell to this, the Bontrager is ludicrously heavy, the MIPS system in the O-Neal cut my head when a tree jumped out of nowhere. I really think the Wave Cell plastic would fuck up my shiny head in a crash, it looks like a really stupid system when you aren't looking at it on the internet.

Alloy Epic is back! The last version was a great trail bike, bonus for two water bottles.
$2k for frame/shock. Reduced to $500 next year.

Speed Metal | All New Chisel
Meet the All-New Chisel. It's the lightest in its category - 18.4% lighter than the closest competitor. With 110mm of Specialized Ride Dynamics tuned travel, it's also highly capable. And finally, thanks to Epic 8 inspired kinematics that reduce pedal bob for optimal energy transfer, it's the...
That would be perfect for a rental fleet around here (non-Pass/Park)
I'm not exactly a SpecialEd guy, but cool. I haven't had that little of travel in a while tho. I am a fan of alloy. And the less cost for sure.Alloy Epic is back! The last version was a great trail bike, bonus for two water bottles.

So are you saying that frame will be $500 next year? The wife needs a frame. I've got everything else.
The Uberbike brake pads did me proud today, rotor went black but the brakes didn't change in feel at all, and I dragged the shit outta them.
Should finally be rid of the Shimano rotor this week, yay!

I got the CT5 Kevlar pads, I assumed they would have just been something from Ali but with white people mark up on them.
Most of my riding is XC so I didn't really want sintered, forgot to swap my pads out before doing shuttles but the Ubers seemed easily up to the task.
My bike and I weigh 140kg total and I know how to roast brakes with my lack of skill.
Uberbike Magura 4 piece MT7 - MT1893 Anniversary Edition - CT5 Kevlar Disc Brake Pads

Yeah it's pretty weird, seems a bit Absolute Black like.
I loved Magura's dev videos with the mad scientist from a bunch of years back.
They showed a rotor glowing in the test rig because that's supposedly how hard they were testing them.
In the first vid they asked riders what they wanted and Magura didn't really deliver any of the riders' wants but light weight.
I bought the MT6 brakes and they were almost good for one decent stop and then they were fucked for a couple of minutes.
Suspension tuning companies... that's what's right.
Got a day on my '24 Float X2 with Fluid Focus compression valving and softer bump stop. Pretty good!! Still need to mess around with settings slightly but I haven't really deviated much from what was pre-set for me.

I hate ano and purple, so actually that is what's wrong with the industry.
In all seriousness, that is really light... and I just bought a Pro5.
Taiwanese hubs don't have the best reputation, and One Up seems to need to go through a few iterations of their products before they are solid... but these hubs are intriguing. I wonder if they are manufactured by novatec or another known factory..

Just bought one of those carbon stumpy closeouts for $1500, but this does look cool.
