does it really matter as long as the number can be clearly identified? I do
cut my so I can change the brake/shifter adjustment if the race is muddy or
extremely dry.
I believe some rules are meant to be guides, not absolutes. Rules that
ensure fair competition should be upheld. Rules about number plates...not
so sure we need to get the rule police out for this one.

Are these rules not strictly enforced?
from the obra rules pdf...
10.3 - No rider shall cut, fold, mutilate, trim or apply stickers to the
race number, nor shall they sell, trade or
give the issued number to another individual. Penalty or disqualification is
at the discretion of the Race
Official.
10.6 - MOUNTAIN BIKE COMPETITIONS
The figures on a front number plate must have a minimum height of 8cm and a
minimum width of 1.5cm on
a 18cm by 18cm background. Body numbers, if used, shall be according to the
road standard.
Just noticed a bunch of 'aerodynamic' cutting at the Bear Springs race.
NOT trying to stir up any controversey just wondering
thanks
