Nothing like firing up the www gossip column with unsubstantiated rumours!

It would be a wise move by Specialized, they've got the bike, all they need is the rider with the biggest fanclub to sell it to the world.

No they don't. What they HAVE is a need to introduce a new rig for 2010 that is worth someone like Hill riding. No more sub seatstay nonsense. Time for the SW Dh bike to make a reappearance…..

I just read that too. Seems likely given that Kyle Strait is their only racer and he is more of an all rounder. Wonder if/when the bushy-eyebrowed one will announce his ride for next year.

hes not the only racer specialized has a whole team america race team

Ha, yeah sorry I forgot about them because they are so well promoted…

umm team america is more decline mag then it is specialized…isn't it?

i think it'ed be great if Sam rode for Specialized….return of the horstlink to world dominance

shit they could save tons of cash and just pull one of these out of the back for him, it's not going to matter what he rides.

After a cetain "Team America" rider pulled a hissy fit at the Arduum Challenge, would have a hard time cheering for anyone on a Demo.

Team America rider: "That last gap seems pretty dangerous, maybe there should be a case pad"

organizer: "Well there is a ridearound that you can take, but I see you ride a custom painted Demo"

Said rider left shortly after. got a big fat DNS

Yeah but didn't Tyler Morland and Kenny Smith do the same thing?

What bikes were they riding? :lol:

said rider did not race because of the fact he didnt like the gaps as much as he got 3 pre-runs in 8 hours

i heard the reason why he started racing is because specialized thought he was getting fat

also, i find it more beleiveable to see him riding a trek. since i can imagine them wanting to find much more household name than nico vink to represent their latest and greatest in technological advances.
