It would be cruel for specialized to close all their contracts then hire a guy like Pilgrim.
smart business by specialized if so - they are down to their lowest Google Results In the previous 5 years(as of 2 days ago anyway) so someone like Pilgrim will Bring upwards of 500k Eyes into each video. **note, Most brands are in the same boat, with lowest Results in previous 5 years.
Not a rumor, but i wonder if we’ll get announcements earlier than usual this year. Even though DH season starts really late, 50% of these guys have YouTube endeavors these days. Would really mess some riders up if teams wanna do the usual, wait till February when we have a team announcement video filmed.

However i think its Canyon or Trek.
Truth be told: If people like Sam Pilgrim (social media clowns) would just vanish off the internet overnight, I wouldn't miss them. Not even a little.
Kinda unfortunate that a guy this talented frequently resorts to putting out clickbait bullcrap.

It's brave that you were willing to speak your truth, despite knowing how poorly most people would react to it. While others are being supportive, accepting, polite, and worst of all, entertained... you're saying, "Damn the consequences! I'm going to call this guy out, no matter how spiteful I might appear." While so many are mindlessly entertained by the simple antics of the 'clown', you're calling him out. It's refreshing to run into someone who isn't afraid of what people think.

Sam is actually the one of the only reasons I grace YouTube's mainpage other than music and video game walkthrough's. I find his videos entertaining hell. I'm sure they aren't for everyone but at least he's trying different stuff.
I totally get some people aren't into it, but as someone who usually does care, even I'm hooked on weird Pilgrim videos. There's just something about a bedframe bike with a fox 40 getting jibbed.

didn‘t someone say earlier in this thread that SC is gettin serious about enduro racing for 2023? if so are they staying on full sram or are the switching to the syndicates sponsers?
I did guess that Jesse could be headed to SC now that they have some free revenue from the 50-01 guys. It also maybe makes a bit more sense in terms of their marketing now that all their 27.5 bikes are MX. But I was purely speculating for fun.
Not sure if someone else might have said something more specific to EWS re Santa Cruz.
considering the tasmania races in march/apr and no WC DH starting until june, i wouldn't be surprised if a lot of DH riders go EWS (sorry, EDR) for the couple rounds early on. if for nothing else, as an excuse to go to tasmania to ride those trails : )

EDR EnDuRo makes about as much sense as DHI DownHIll. But, I suspect they wanted to make it a World Cup and not World Series, only to find out that EWC (Enduro World Cup) was already taken. The Endurance World Cup is a motorcycle racing series.

A podcast I listened to speculated that EDR will refer specifically to World Cup enduro races like DHI, XCO, etc does but that EWS will remain in use potentially for feeder and regional type series.

Why is everyone kicking off about the EDR thing. It’s just the uci code they use for the Enduro World Cup. We don’t go around talking about the DHI do we?

"There’s some big news in the world of Enduro, as from next year onwards the Enduro World Series (EWS & EWS-E) will be an official UCI Mountain Bike World Cup!
Enduro will join the likes of Cross Country and Downhill at the highest level of international mountain biking competition from next year onwards, meaning all of next season’s events have been awarded World Cup Status. This is a big change for the sport, with the EWS now known as the UCI Mountain Bike Enduro World Cup (EDR). "
So frustrating to see not even a single EDR date in North America. I know they need to have sites that want to host but come on there has to be some effort on UCI’s part to try and push this.
Gottem! Wrap it up boys and girls. Our work here is done.
It means nothing other than Jesse read the thread and wants to keep the fun rolling. But damn if the sleuths are not super sleuthy on here, pinpointing his destination from a story.

No question he is great entertainment. I just feel like he exists in the world of YouTube rather than mountain bikes. Riding around on his haibike or his bed frame or whatever is he really contributing to mtb culture?
Also NOT saying I think what he does isn’t impressive or valid or that I think it’s a bad way for specialized to spend their marketing dollars. It will probably sell a lot of bikes. I just got the impression that a lot of their recently fired athletes were more grassroots or making a wider contribution to the sport than just selling product.
Could also be Dan Paley?! He’s suggested he’s off Santa Cruz, and is also sponsored by Etnies.
Left hand front brake, might not be someone with an MTB background if they're from the UK

Post is also geo-tagged "Fernie". I am almost certain that is where Siggers resides.

I agree. But perhaps Forbidden wants to show it's bikes can be jibby?

Since Sam Pilgrim was in San Fran around 2 month ago, I bet he will be on Specialized 2023.
Australia to jolly green 🌽
norway is actually going to a Germany & Italy pairing
so mille johnset to canyon-pirelli
Meier-Smith joining Thirion running double duty DH/Enduro since Carlson will be full-time broadcast team?

EWS doesn't exist anymore. EDR is WC enduro racing

You know, a silly season round-up podcast would be fun. Maybe even interview some of the movers after everything has settled out
