2024 TEAM RUMORS

1/15/2024 10:03am

Man, that Frameworks team photo is driving me nuts. Asa too close to Neko--spacing is off. And Neko and Asa doing the "I have to pee" hands over-the-crotch position. Also, Asa not looking at the camera. Cut the photographer budget to pay Angel's salary. ... Otherwise sick kit and bike!

Yeah interesting. 
 

Brook broke up with his mrs recently I think so could fit the loses ball and chain part. Losing chain also fits with Zerode. Fish out of water - maybe he’s moved from the coast to Rotorua. He’s been spending a lot of time there.

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

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...

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.

Nah, FOX helmets and shoes from other pics.

The mistery remains...

If it were me, I'd be the dude with my hands over my crotch.  Never have liked giving ladies a free showing of my wedding tackle.in my outfit.  My 80's bike shorts & Oakley nuclear windbreaker phase was tough but I manned up then...and only then b/c it was part of the dating ritual.

Are these photos from a news release that I am missing?

FW PB profile uploaded them on PB, but no article on the team yet, must be imminent.

Maybe the big S is supplying ebikes to the team? 

The Ebike fleet at Kanuga is Specialized.

His Mrs called him out on his Facebook for allegedly cheating on her.

Someone else commented but it's really crazy how when you click this thread from your reminders/notifications tab, it won't load. But if you got to it via the Forums link, loads instantly.  

Sorry about this. Our developers are aware of the problem and looking into it. A couple questions to help us troubleshoot: 

* Does it only happen if it is currently unread? (If you click it a second time after marking read, is it still slow?)

* What is the count of "and X others commented.."?

Thanks.

Yes, it was me. At that point it was taking over 20 seconds to load, now it won't load at all through notifications and I can't even mark things as read. I've also noticed the tech rumours thread seems to be taking longer to load when clicking on notifications now as well.

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

Let's have a round up, shall we? What's confirmed, what's still hanging? As usual, I don't want to put in any work or time whatsoever, so if somebody else could just go ahead and whip those two lists up for us, that'd be great. TIA.

If he doesn’t bulk up he’ll have to deal with his teammate making Rude comments.

Admittedly mostly stolen from Singletrack Mag, but here's what is still to be confirmed (from what I can remember) listed roughly in order of how strongly they are linked to a team/sponsor:

David Trummer [Probably on MS Intense or equivalent team with Intense frames, all but confirmed]

Angel Suarez leaves Primal Unno Project Race Team. [On Frameworks, all but confirmed]

Ronan Dunne leaves Continental Nukeproof Factory Racing. [Probably on Mondraker, all but confirmed]

Vali Holl leaves RockShox Trek Race Team. [Probably on YT]

Ryan Pinkerton leave GT Factory Racing. [Probably on Mondraker]

Dakota Norton leaves Intense Factory Racing. [Probably on Mondraker]

Danny Hart leaves Cube Factory Racing. [Possibly on Nukeproof as a privateer]

Sam Blenkinsop [Possibly on Zerode]

Taylor Vernon [Possibly on Zerode]

Aaron Gwin leaves Intense Factory Racing. [Possibly on Yeti]

Brook MacDonald leaves MS Mondraker.

Tuhoto Ariki Pene leaves MS Mondraker. 

 

I may have missed a few or gotten something wrong so please chime in if that's the case!
