Are you speaking of Reed Boggs or Kurt Sorge ? All of the others have downhill bike but some choose to bring a smaller bike (Storch -> Propain Spindrift, Rheeder -> small Commencal FRS, etc...)
And it doesn't seems to stop them from beeing on the podium with their bike !

I believe he is talking about Zinks bike. I mean, it does look sketchy as... Huh

Let Nicholi Rogatkin, the ultimate hype man in MTB, be your host as he moves around the Rampage site documenting all the madness as it happens (make sure to scroll through all the slides in his post below). This will give you a great idea of how things stand at present. Can't wait for the event tomorrow!

Damn, that sucks. I'm always rooting for him. Is it just me or did the timeline to dig then practice, then compete feel really rushed this year? Gotta be hard on the riders to get their lines dialed in faster than normal. You don't see Strait go down often.

The drop he crashed on is huge.  He apparently got pitched to the bottom of the landing which is steep and long.  At least he didn’t roll off the sender there isn’t a ton of room up there.  The few clips he posted of him hitting it on the first day it looked treacherous to get the speed right.  Super bummed the Ironman of rampage is out.  Hope he heals quick.

Sounds like there's a small chance Zink won't be riding.  Issues getting everything running correctly + some sore feet from a crash yesterday.  His new video also has footage of Lyle's crash...
