The Eighth - V10 Development: Ep2

Yes: the eighth generation V10 with VPP™ is faster. But even faster and newer bikes require some extra time for riders to get “back up to speed”. Imagine our surprise, then, when we were faced with something unexpected: the entire Syndicate singing the new V10’s praises straight from the get go. Greg says he’s proud to be part of the development of this build. Episode two brings us into the room where the bike was revealed to Nina, Jackson, and Laurie for the first time. Then, the team’s test camp in New Zealand where the Syndicate do run after run, sharing what they’re feeling and how the bike is influencing their riding. Finally, they hit their first race of the season: the Australian DH Nationals at Thredbo. The Syndicate will be racing this bike in 2023 and they will continue to develop it throughout the year. Future episodes will dive further into the process of making a world class downhill race bike even faster. When will it go on sale? No time soon. This is development in plain sight.
