Photo by: Clint Trahan / CrankworxThe first major international event of 2023 is kicking off this weekend in New Zealand. Crankworx Rotorua opens the 2023 season, starting with the RockShox Taniwha DH.
Rob Warner will be on the mic when racers drop into the Whakarewarewa and TÄ«tokorangi forest above Rotorua. The former World Cup commentator and recent Mountain Bike Hall of Fame inductee is taking his talents to Crankwrox for this season as the series doubles down on its investment in downhill racing, and broadcasting downhill racing. Crankworx adds Warner and co-hosts as well as increased camera coverage.
The week’s broadcasts remain free to watch, live and on replay for North Americans that might be sleeping during some events.
