This past weekend saw an exciting start to the UCI DH World Cup in Lourdes. Aaron Gwin was spectacular as ever, conquering the course with his race-proven LG1r components.
Gwinn takes the win on the full LG1r kit while Stevie, Danny and Troy hold down the top 4, all on LG1 guides.
Gwin punished a full LG1 Race Carbon build-out on his YT Tues CF Pro:
- LG1 Race Carbon Crankset with Direct Mount Guidering M and BB
- LG1 Race Carbon Chainguide
- LG1 Race Carbon Wheelset with integrated 7speed cassette
“One thing that myself and Ben Arnott, (Angel’s mechanic) have been super impressed with is that Aaron has never made it through one race weekend on one set of wheels, here and both riders spent the whole week on the same wheels including Aaron’s race run. They held up, the bearings are awesome even in the super muddy conditions we went through, that stuff can tear bearings apart and they are still spinning great.”
—John Hall, Gwin’s mechanic.
So hats off to the YT Mob and Gwin for starting the year off right, we’re all eager to see what else they can do to make LG1race components a part of World Cup history.
