Yannick is the man, and that bike is a beast! I really hope the UCI pulls it's head out and starts giving E-EDR some bloody coverage, as it stands I'll be surprised if any factories will be fielding a team for next season because 2023's coverage was a sad, huge step backwards.

[@philseton5796]

Interesting spoke design in the rear wheel! 😂

[@NerdsonDirtMTB]

Cheers Tim!!

[@jordanmackay3568]

Mullet with a long chainstay is the holy grail. Defo a top contender against the Strive & Megawatt

[@bruce.KAY-bike-drifter]

I was intrigued to hear Transition changed to a Brose motor. Whilst I think the Brose motor on my Levo is a good one, I wonder why the shift away from a Shimano motor?

[@AmvC]

Thank you for pronouncing _Brose_ korrektly :)

[@vashon100]

If it's german, isn't it brose-uh, not brose-aye ?

[@davefreeman9347]

I would love to know how many teams use SRAM drivetrain vs Shimano Drivetrain on the series I would guess SRAM take the win by a fair margin as they always seem to be a couple steps ahead compared to Shimano tech wise ? Would love to know though 👍

[@Magoo71]

I quit using Shimano decades ago…I’m a huge SRAM fan for everything but their brakes…Maybe Shimano is putting too much R&D into their Fishing Products ;-)

[@claremontinteriorsmw]

I'll have two
One to thrash about on, and one in my front room so it give me pleasure looking at it while the miss's watches Coronation Street 😆

[@jeffcarter6643]
