Some big changes for the Rocky Mountain Enduro team this year. Some staying, some going, a new bike and a team not run by the manufacturer?

FWIW, I just got a newsletter from Specialized Gravity, where they are confirming their 2024 teams. I reads like this:

DOWNHILL TEAM
LOIC BRUNI - Elite men
FINN ILES - Elite men
JORDAN WILLIAMS - Elite men

EDR TEAM
CHARLES MURRAY - Elite men
KEVIN MIQUEL - Elite men
ESTELLE CHARLES - Elite women
RAPHAEL GIAMBI - U21 men

E-EDR TEAM
CECCE CAMOIN - Elite men
SOFIA WIEDENROTH - Elite women

E-XC TEAM
JORIS RYF - WORLD CHAMPION - Elite men
SOFIA WIEDENROTH - Elite women

MULTI-DISCIPLINE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
CHRISTOPHER GRICE - Elite men
IZABELA YANKOVA - Elite women
RAPHAEL GIAMBI - U19 men
ROSA JENSEN - U17 women
HARRY SCHOFIELD - U15 men

Interestingly, there is no mention about the XC team, but their E-XC squad is squeezed in here. 

Cheers,
Mx

I think that's because the XC team is their only "in-house" true factory team where the teams from the newsletter are external "factory supported" teams.

Not sure why everyone is reading "fish out of water" as a fisherman... A fish out of water is a saying meaning someone who is out of place, has nothing to do with fishing.

No idea who it it's talking about, but I do wonder if people have gone a bit too far down the fisherman path

 Anyone know what they would be using from Specialized (logo - center of jersey)? Saddles?

I think that post was edited. It said something about a keen fisherman originally.

Spec Gravity is the WC dh team. There is a north american spec team that has Cody, Porsche, Sedlak, Keller, etc.

IIRC Cody hasn't been on a "official" Spesh team since he joined them, he's had his own program with preferred components and national schedule. His IG bio still mentions Specialized

That's really interesting- Neko was offering a Frameworks saddle made by Spank. I can't see anything on the bike from Specialized...

Wtf? 
What role does the big S play in Frameworks Racing?? 
Did they buy in? 

Maybe the big S is supplying ebikes to the team?

Maybe Specialized helmets and Fox clothing? I guess we'll find out soon either way.

Edit - Could it be Specialized shoes? I don't know enough about the looks of Fox or Specialized shoes to be able to tell what they're wearing in the photo.
