MK is not a brand, it's actually a carbon manufacturer who makes frames for a number of popular brands. The Taipei show is primarily for the vendors to show their wares and manufacturing capabilities in hopes of attracting new clients. The 'catalog' bikes as some like to call them are a way...
It's probably not a rigid steal valve in the traditional sense, I'd assume the space between the rim interface and the inner chamber is probably flexible.
Read again, I think you've misunderstood me. Leogang is the way it is because they want a 'sustainable' trail, which has come to mean as maintenance free as possible. All fine and good, just don't call it a World Cup track. But with no incentive to do otherwise don't expect it to change...
Wait for snow to melt, open bike park, close bike park, ski all winter, wait for snow to melt. . . . sell tickets while never touching a shovel again. Lather, rinse, repeat for 4 or 5 years.
Results will depend on the weather, outcome will be determined by the conditions? Because Gee can't ride fast in the mud?
Champery 2010, refresh your memories.
So much stupid, and typical classless gay boy comment thrown in too. Nice.
And some of you wonder why most threads these days are just the same 12 guys talking among themselves, grinding the same old axes, and a mod who still thinks adding 'derp' to everything he doesn't like is clever.
Lighter front wheel and a special thinner, mini-knob version of his usual tires on the rear. But really, that's not that much different from the sort of thing that goes on at all the world cups. Everyone is always looking for an advantage and the term 'stock' bike is a bit dubious. Even when...
For what it's worth I won the latest Taiwan 'national' round on one last weekend. 2nd place was OG Belgian national champ, also on a Rune 2. That bike rips!
So are Nico, Atherton, Maes, Minnaar, Barel and Absalon on 650b; Gracia and Leov (check the stage results from last EWS) on 29, Mosley on 26 and 29.... etc.
So many variables in any trail, even PMB, that you'll never be able to attribute a result to just wheel size or suspension travel...
I'd be surprised if Gee had any idea how much Greg's bike weighs or what tires he's on, or even cared.
It's far more interesting to the guys who think it's funny to write 'derp' in every other sentence. But I don't think any of them are racing.
I think he'll be too busy in Whistler racing late-90's DH, otherwise known as 'enduro'
*just to be clear, I think the EWS is f'ing brilliant, and it's a shame both these events have to be on the same weekend.
