The bike in question is a Large size Intense M29. As many downhill race fans will know, Gwin has another race bike on hand; an XL-size M29 that Gwin has been chopping and changing from in practice and during the opening round of the UCI World Cup DH in Maribor.

The next round of the UCI World Cup DH is in Fort William this coming weekend. Here’s hoping Gwin can put all this drama behind him and concentrate on the racing.
