Tubeless?

Has Rigby moved into your garage?

There is no room for him in there...what with that giant pile of punctured tubes in there

Forget the Super Bowl. This is where I wish I could go

I witnessed a spectacular carbon front wheel failure at the men's race in Hoogerheide in the off camber section where PFP and Jolenda Neff crashed.
It appears that Jeremy Powers is retiring and his team ( Aspire racing) is folding.
Here is a video of the carbon wheel Thierry mentioned. Don’t let Yacks are this.

Wow Valkenburg is an awesome muddy course. It looks super challenging.  I’m rooting for Compton who looks really solid right now
Both women’s races are examples of how deep you have to dig , amazing amazing stuff
Now THAT was a beautiful duel. Those ruts were intense. It looked like the bike change became a significant factor (not to mention mud, fatigue, crazy climbs, etc). Compton is my hero
Katie Campton knee after a disc brake injury during the last DVV race today. What a sucky way to end a stellar season.
Gah!
I'm surprised this isn't getting more coverage.
I’m a little uninformed when it comes to discs but why can’t the outside lip of the rotor have a small piece of rubber around it? The pads grab the flat side of the rotor not the outer lip correct?

Sorry JP I'm gonna beat you to the punch on this - the outside of the rotor DOES have a piece of rubber - it's called the "tire."
