Maybe not them, or maybe them too, but half of the WC circus is in full troll mode on Loris' post :D
well loris is "back home" in france, so maybe they meant that and knew most people would take it as confirmation that he would join spec again :D
What about..... Bruni to SC and Loris to Specialized? Explains the posts alluding to business with Minaar and the Specialized comment on Loris leaving SC.

New bike for Suarez. I think since his mechanic is riding Commencal the whole season and it's the bike in the back, and also blacked out. I think commencal is a option. Brakes are TRP and Rims are Ethirteen? So I guess it looks like commencal 100%
I think Amaury is iffy or will not be back at max pace for next season & Max likes to win Angel is a likely especially with the way he has been riding in recent history
Angel seems to be using a Bluegrass helmet on a video he just posted on IG, he also blacked the logos on the jacket on the pic that was posted here.
Scott also makes clothing right? And the team is on bluegrass helmets. Maybe he is going to the Scott Factory team??

Remember Kathy Sessler's Inside Line where she said Loic was a racer the Syndicate would love to have?

Loic had mentioned many times before that he had posters of the Syndicate adorning his walls back in the day. The respect is definitely there from both sides of the paddock between Loic and Santa Cruz.
But that doesn't mean that he's moving to the Syndicate anytime soon.

Emily Batty's husband/trainer/coach Adam Morka is setting up his own team in partenership with Toronto-based Inspire Athlete Management, a new arm of DEC Sports & Entertainment, who will manage all endemic and non-endemic partnerships for the new team.
Riders and sponsors for next season will be announced in early 2021, but one would assume Emily would be the 1st to sign and by the way Adam follows a bunch of Canyon riders, mechanics, Canyon Collective etc on instagram and not other teams Canyon will be sponsor.
Canyon also lost Pauline Ferrand-Prevot for 2021 so there is space in their XC needs.
Hatherly and Andreassen rumored to having signed with Cannondale Cross Country team for 2021
That would be an interesting move, and leave Specialized with an empty male roster (who else do they have?). They can't even call on Tom Pidcock riding Specialized any more, as he is off to Ineos. Though if Tom does race Elite XC WCs and Olympics it will be interesting to see what MTB he uses, as I can't imagine the Pinarello one is anywhere near as good as his Epic.

Specialized won´t have big names going for the XC world cup. they´ll have Kukhavy and Grotts for Cape Epic ans stuff, and Blevins for XC world cup. maybe the South Africans Botha and Beers can step up. or they get Marotte who left Cannondale
Florian Vogel will also race in 2021 for Specialized

Interesting.
I did wonder if Specialized would come on board and replace Pinarello at Ineos, because Pidcok has gone there. Like they follow Sagan around and sponsor whatever team he is on, and MvDP and Canyon. That way Specialized keep Pidcock on their bikes across all disciplines.
New things for Vali coming up... Maybe change to yt mob? Since everything seems to work well with Yt for a long time? [img]https://p.vitalmtb.com/photos/forums/2020/12/15/10185/s1200_Screenshot_20201215_124634_2.jpg[/img]

Nah, I bet she’s moving to another frame sponsor. Probably one of the bigger factory teams since she is really high profile already. As much as I like YT, they are a small company and it seems they have moved their focus away from operating a top money rider roster.
With Rachel on her own team is vali the highest paid woman in dh? She is certainly the hottest commodity.
Perhaps specialized. They can afford two number ones. Loic and vali also don’t need to compete with one another. So it could be a pretty ideal way for specialized to make a splash as they often like to make.

I am guessing that Tahnee got a fair chuck of chunk of change to move to canyon. I don’t get why Vali who has yet to win a elite WC or get a Elite WC podium gets all this shine. Is she the future probably. Is she the present, not so sure a about that. I though maybe he had s huge following in SM and that was why she would be worth so much but nope. So just trying to understand why is it’s she is hottest commodity?
The only logical destination for Vali Hoell is Trek, imho. Her current sponsors will fit in just fine (i.e. Red Bull, TLD, SRAM) and she gets to be on a new bike from one of the biggest brands in cycling.
Trek hasn't had a solid female DH rider since Rachel Atherton and, before her, Tracy Moseley. If VH reaches her potential, it continues a tradition of great women champions. At least, that's what Trek is betting on.
(nobody said that rumors must be based on proofs )
Commencal supreme on the back is from a friend btw
Scott also makes clothing right? And the team is on bluegrass helmets. Maybe he is going to the Scott Factory team??

Jordan Sarrou, current XC world champ, moves to Specialized and Kerschbaumer is rumored there too
Barelli shared his departure from Commencal with a banger!
