When was he on 27.5? His fork had 40 decals on it but it always looked like it was a 29er

He was on 650b for the last 3 World Cups.

There was radio silence on it though. Nothing on social media or the mtb sites about it. I don't recall Warner or Claudio mentioning it on air either.

Just an FYI... I'm currently watching Women's XCO via Hulu live app on my TV, it's on "olympic channel". I already had the app to watch College Football games, but I think they are currently offering a 1 week free trial so you could cancel after World Champs.

Sounded like a hip fracture at the time. Knowing what we know now, the comment was out of line.

Wishing the guy the best.

Mont Sainte Anne claims another victim, with Reece Wilson announcing that he won't be in the start gate today following a heavy crash in training yesterday. Our best wishes for a speedy recovery to Reece!

Our thoughts are with Brook MacDonald as he starts the road to recovery after injuring his back in a hard crash in training yesterday. You've got this Bulldog!

Watching on the Redbull TV app on my phone. Don't know if it makes a difference but when asked I clicked to not share my location.

Anyone know why red bull would need to cut for their own self promoting ads (when they are a free service).. and still have the live feed running in the smaller window..... seems a bit silly... are they restricted to how much footage they can show or talk about timewise??

what a complete balls up as it isn't even their footage some-other world champs only currently showing about 30secs of a run.. hope the top men get more... who dreams up this giving shit to non-specialised broadcasters

imagine everyone pulling from same stream/feed/schedule aren't they? single production company that everyone taps in to? scheduled commercial breaks?

Well that was well worth waking up at 2.45am for!

Gutted for Troy, he wanted that one more than anything. But hats off to Loic for the perfect run. Fast, yet totally in control. 72kph through the speed trap with rocks the size of small dogs is near insane asylum stuff.

wow...wonder if they only found out at last minute . as it sounded like the rider before went then they said on the feed 'the next rider has been pulled from the start gate, and won't be starting'
