Would be good to see Bex Baraona on a factory deal, not sure how I stumbled onto following her but 2 top 10 overalls in the EWS and a good social presence.

BOOM! Eddie Masters makes a big move, joining Bernard Kerr, Rupert Chapman, and Emilie Siegenthaler on Pivot. We can't wait to see what the Kiwi Krusher will get up to next!
Press Release:
Tempe, AZ – Pivot Factory Racing’s Enduro and Downhill programs get a boost by signing Kiwi Eddie Masters for 2018 and beyond.
Already at the forefront of World Cup DH Racing, Pivot Factory Racing is making a strong commitment to the Enduro World Series in 2018 with the signing of Eddie Masters. Masters will be racing both EWS and UCI DH events for the squad, alongside fellow New Zealander, Rupert Chapman. In addition to a full downhill and Crankworx schedule, the team plans to make at least six Enduro World Series (EWS) stops next season.
Said Masters, “I’m really excited for this opportunity, I'm so stoked to join the team and I can’t wait to get racing under the Pivot banner in 2018!”
Team leader Bernard Kerr is equally happy with the new addition, saying “Pivot is such an awesome company to ride for and the team is really fun – I’ve built great relationships with Chris and everyone at Pivot over the past eight years and I know Eddie’s character is going to fit right in on the squad.”
Masters is already well known on the gravity scene, placing 3rd at the 2017 EWS stop in Rotorua, New Zealand, and as a consistent top rider in UCI Downhill World Cup and Crankworx events. Masters and Chapman have their choice of Pivot’s strong gravity and enduro range of models, and will be riding Pivot Cycles' new Mach 6 Carbon and Firebird in enduro events and the Phoenix DH Carbon in downhill events.
In addition to Masters, Pivot Factory Racing is comprised of riders Bernard Kerr, Emilie Siegenthaler, and Rupert Chapman. The team is sponsored by Shimano (drivetrain), Fox Suspension, Maxxis Tires, Reynolds Wheels, Renthal (cockpit) Fly Racing (clothing, helmets and accessories), Jet Black (trainers), WTB (saddles), MRP (chainguides) and Industry Nine (hubs).

I'm surprised they want Eddie to race World Cup DH and EWS and the full Crankworx Series. Seems like that is a recipe for fatigue and burnout.
Wouldn't the sponsors & the racer want to focus on doing well at less events vs hitting all of them at less than optimal?

I wonder if this means Kerr and Eddie's brother have made up?

No news for now regarding Jack Moir, Nik Nestoroff, and Charlie Harrison. Some of these riders may still have agreements in place that cover 2018, we haven't been able to dig up that information at this point. Stay tuned!
Jack is currently selling off unridden 2018 Carbine and M16C... Maybe he's got new factory rides on the way, maybe he's off to a new team...
Wasn't he on the M29 the whole year (alu proto then carbon production model)?
He wouldn't have had it at home in AU at all I don't think, it would have been for testing purposes with the team initially and he may not even have one now. The sale of the m16 may have indicated that he was getting an M29 to use over the summer, the sale of an unridden m16 AND 2018 Carbine could mean hes going elsewhere. *shrug*
Would love to know what Rude's doing though, it'd be great to see him remove the 'e' and 'i' from Yeti!
