Never never underestimate someone, no matter what they ride or look like, never trust a bike that's super clean
Is there anything actually wrong with using New Balance? That's what I'm using at the moment!
This is me but I actually suck
For real though I wouldn't take my beloved and heavily thrashed hardtail trail bike near jumps like those. I'm sure it can it without falling apart but it ain't the kinda riding I like, and I'm sure it would eventually damage something.
I am mountainbiking for 5 years now and the last 2 years of this periode i got back into my former passion skateboarding. When i started biking with my scott spark it was so hard because i spent many decades learning to skate and knew i was good in this sport but biking was completly new for me. I had many crashes and fears of going downhill and thought: This is tough as fuck! HAHA Then i watched many youtube videos and went biking as much as i could. I slowly got better and the key to success was buying an enduro bike for me. This type of bike and the extra travel (160/150 Trek Remedy 8) gave me so much confidence on technical trails up and down. At jumping i really suck but i am motivated to learn it soon! Nice Video and judging people by there apparel and gear is not ok.
Thats so me 😂, had a guy look disappointed when i cleared a rock drop everyone else walked around.
My dad grew up bmxing, we go DH mountain biking together a few times the summer, he wears his oldest work t shirt, a pair of cargo shorts, his building work shoes. He hires his dh bike for the day, and he's THE fastest mfer bombing down mountain, first to the bottom each time
skinny jeans pffft. my old mountain bike 2003-2005, i wear an athletic/tennis skirt when riding it. LOL im so mountain the sketchiest place i road was a gravel road.
BMX sure is nice. Its nice to bail out and not having to worry about your bike breaking. The only cost to BMX is how much your bike costs and your health ofc.
True history hajajajaj
So basically the one with the black helmet is the real poser. Not the orange helmet.
F king sand bagger
Your equiment should always cheeper than your abilities!
Why make fun about newbies in the first place?
I also don't wear these typical mtb outfits.
Short Script for you!
FADE IN:
EXT. MOUNTAIN TRAIL – DAY
Four friends, JOHN, GREG, MATT and JIM, are riding their mountain bikes on a scenic trail. They're laughing and joking, enjoying the beautiful scenery and the rush of adrenaline.
JOHN
(panting)
Man, this is amazing. I love riding these trails.
GREG
(smiling)
I know, right? It's the best way to get away from the stress of everyday life.
Suddenly, they come across a bag lying on the side of the trail. MATT picks it up and they all look inside.
MATT
(excitedly)
Guys, check this out! It's a bag full of money!
GREG
(shocked)
No way! How did that get here?
JOHN
(suspicious)
I don't know, but we should probably take it and get out of here.
They quickly stuff the money into their backpacks and continue riding. But they don't get far before they hear the sound of dirt bikes approaching.
DR. ROLF, CRAIG and REGGIE, three ruthless criminals, come into view. They're clearly angry and looking for something.
DR. ROLF
(angrily)
There they are! Those kids have our money!
CRAIG
(nodding)
Let's get 'em!
The criminals give chase, and the four friends quickly realize that they're being pursued.
JOHN
(panicking)
Guys, we've got to get out of here! They're after the money!
They ride as fast as they can, but the criminals are gaining on them. Suddenly, they come across a steep cliff.
GREG
(shouting)
We've got to jump it!
The four friends take a deep breath and launch themselves off the cliff, soaring through the air on their bikes. They land safely on the other side, but the criminals are not so lucky.
DR. ROLF
(shouting)
No!
The criminals crash and burn, leaving them injured and unconscious.
The four friends ride off into the sunset, with the money in their backpacks and the thrill of adventure in their hearts.
FADE OUT.
99 percent of MTBers have no handling skills.
Hey man – I don’t wear pads…..and when it’s hot wear only Lycra. It’s called XC! My shoes are clipped in.
I grew up on a BMX but I was trash at it, hadnt touched a bike in like 6 years, that transferred to MTB so I'm still trash. can confirm BMXers retain the ability they had
It went together easily in less than an hour. https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L Make sure the front fork is forward or the pedals will hit the front tire. Tires are both a little soft so it needs air before I ride it. The rear wheel didn't come with a clamp regular bolts hold it on. The front had the clamp. No scratches out of box. Rims are a little off with a slight wobble. They could have spent more time with the spoke tool fixing the run out. So far out of the box I'm happy with it. I did replace the pedals with a nice aftermarket set. After riding it a bit my A$$ is a bit sore so I ordered another seat. Overall I'm nearly 60 and didn't ride a bike in 30 years. I like my new 29" Schwinn. It will be used for casual rides with my friend.
my first time was at this exact location, same situation. Background in moto, had a blast and now racing cat 1 DH. 😂
