Being okay with it might actually not be true. 'Do this or you don't get the bucks' is also a good motivator to do stuff you are not that comfortable with in order to do the stuff she loves. And everybody does stuff like that, but the level of uncomfortableness is different for different people and different professions.
And even if she is okay with it, it's still not a good image for the public, who gets more and more okay with it.
And i do agree it takes courage and all, but i still don't think that makes it okay...
I don't have a problem with models, but don't make models out of professional athletes or don't make models into fake pro athletes. That's my point/wish.
well i look at this way : if you're not ok with it you don't do it. your morals are worth more than anything IMO. although i do doubt that a rider of anneke's stature is being made to do this under threat of payment or sponsorship. i'm sure she could find a ride if she needed to (which she obviously has) simply by saying 'brand x expected this of me and i won't do it'.
what if a professional athlete wants to do modeling? he or she shouldn't be allowed to or criticized for it because it's not what someone else thinks is ok?
do you believe all the women cyclists who participated in the cyclepassion calendars did it under duress?

No, not really. Anneke is lauded for her efforts and successes on a bike long before anyone makes a comment about her looks. If anything, this reminds me more of the SI "Bodies" issue. She is shredded because she trains harder than most, and considering she is the one who posted that, I'd say it's a safe bet she's pretty stoked on the shot and doesn't care if you want to celebrate her riding or six-pack (like most athletes/cyclists, she'd likely attribute a strong core to equally strong results on a bike).

I get you, but... she's obviously ok with it (as I'm sure the other women racers who've been photographed in similar situations are). there's been no shortage of her being celebrated for her riding and this isn't going to change that. I bet it was nice for all the women involved to be seen as feminine when they are almost exclusively seen sweaty and dirty in riding gear and probably don't always feel feminine during their 'day jobs'. I think it takes a lot of courage to do this, especially in such a male dominated sport.

not at all. just curious about different thoughts on the same subject. it's old or it's not current on geo are very different answers to the same question. still curious what defines an enduro race bike though. parameters on bikes is just plain stupid IMO so I'm curious where people stand since this specific bike came up.
Old and not current on geo are kinda the same thing in my mind. It's reach is now about a size off. The current LG would be a MD or even a short MD to a lot of companies now a days. The BB is sorta high, seat tube was pretty steep for the time, and HA was pretty slack for the time. But well def see it go longer reach, and probably a shorter steeper seat tube, maybe lower BB, and slightly slacker head angle. Sure we'll see boost and metric shock sizing. Oh, and some sort of marketing claim about how the rear suspension kinematics have been tweaked to work better with air and coil shocks.
Also, companies are expected to change bikes every 3-4 years, especially considering the "trends."

I totally get you. In my eyes it‘s just not very transparant. Months ago she made a big post that for her it’s all about results and riding her bike and not showing off in hot yoga pants. Don‘t get me wrong but it seems to me that she changes her mind like the wind changes direction.

Anyone else notice there’s a bike in that photo too? And it’s not a current one (probably her 2012 Milka-Trek hard tail, old Rockshox fork and CB pedals, no dropper, chainguide....)? She appears to be trolling you with an outake from the 2013 Cyclepassion shoot.

Why not let her do both? Good for her for being an amazing athlete and sexy. She's more than just an athlete, she's more than just a sex symbol. It's not an "either or" story.

you are right - I stand corrected - it was posted by herself
guess she is having a good laugh with that as it did the trick and was "discussed" :-)
It's not definite evidence, but Sam pilgrim seems to be on a haibike, due to the motor. he did mention in his leaving ns bikes video that an e-bike would make a climb a lot easier, but this could just be a joke.
You can see a gearbox or motor, but probably a motor because it has a derailleur.
