looks like moir is gone too, at least his last post indicates that? [img]https://p.vitalmtb.com/photos/forums/2019/01/02/7199/s1200_5A261ED1_DC26_4174_AA54_4E639314FB7C.jpg[/img]More

He's saying goodbye to the people who are leaving, can't see intense doing 2 team release statements. They surely would've just put the 3 of them together.
Gwin on redalp.

that‘s what i thought at first, but there are a lot of old pictures with old teammates which looks to me like a farewell to intense. i could be wrong though.
Who said Moir is off intense? I read his post as him saying goodbye to his other teammates, not that he's leaving the team. I think Gwin and Neko are joining Moir.

Chappy’s comment pretty much implies Jack is going too.

Things are coming TO him. Gwin coming to his team?
There is a post from Intense Factory Racing's Instagram account where they specifically say farewell to Charlie and Dean, no mention of Moir.

If Moir, Gwin and Neko all get together on a solid intense platform, they will have a very strong team that can take on the almighty Syndicate!!!!! Then maybe they will defeat Thanos after that, who knows?1?
New gwin proto from Haro. Running a new wheelsize that's currently only seen on late 90's commuter bikes. It's older but has a slight advantage in acceleration and cornering that might surprise everyone!

I heard all this Syndicate banter is that they're dropping CLIF as a sponsor and picking up Kendall Jackson. Rumor is that there will be a signature Greg Minnaar pre-race red blend (some sort of Pinot Noir/Syrah combo) and Syndicate post-race sparkling.
Guess it took a while for Loris to get on board with an American wine company but they figured it out.

I think it was more of a light suggestion that it was possible to stop, not that you would. That monster t was about 13lbs if I remember correctly so lots of momentum.

That's a world championship winning frame right there.
Why is everyone so sure Neko is going where Gwin goes? Quite possible, but don't think it's a given. Neko was on YT largely because of Gwin (Martin). Gwin off YT, so YT may have just cut Neko as well. Which would leaving Neko out in the cold. It's certainly possible he lands at Intense with Gwin and Moir, but that's a serious sh*tload of cash the new Intense team will have to pony up for Gwin/Moir alone. As has been said, I think there is outside money or something coming in to pay for Gwin, so maybe that extra cash will cover Neko's much smaller salary as well.

Spot on!
While I am obviously no expert in MTB World Cup budgets and salaries, I think the money and the logistics behind supporting three top riders must be huge, respectively complicated. So I also don't think there is any warranty that Neko has a spot on whatever team Gwin will be on. And while I have zero concerns for Gwin and if he ends up in a good place, I really really REALLY wish the lesser hyped guys like Neko to find a program and do well and continue racing. I mean, isn't this dude pretty fucking awesome? He brought us chainless rides of his own, openly posting about experimental bikes and awesome races in the USA - that's quite a bit of DH legacy already! May he have a good year and everybody else who put in the hard work and tries to hook up with a team too! <3

The rebadged intense days were when I got into mountain biking. I had a Haro Dual slalom bike just because I loved Minnaar, Hannah and King.
