Send me your email address and I’ll see if I can help you out.

It’s a little grainy, I put this one together entirely on my phone instead of downloading the footage to my computer and using my normal editing software. Trying something different and seeing how it works.

@@BradyLikesBikes makes sense!

Thanks for the feedback! I’ll admit, we’ve taken our Domanes on some rides that have probably voided their warranty a couple times over. I got to live in northern NM for a good chunk of a summer a while back and some of the rides I did there on National Forest “roads” really had me questioning my decisions in life, but my bike came out unscathed.

@ what’s the biggest knobby tire you think you can fit? Sounds like you go much harder than I plan to so whatever is working for you will definitely suit my needs. Thx again for your feedback!

@@hawker604 we use Rene Herse Barlow Pass slick tires 99% of the time! They work incredibly well! I was skeptical when my local shop recommended these over anything else and I have to say they’ve never let us down. They’re a 700x38 and I wouldn’t go any wider than that for this frame.

@@BradyLikesBikes reading about those RH slicks makes me want to hurry up and wear out my 38 Gravel Kings. Sounds like these can be my road slicks and light duty gravel tires. Tell the wife I’m actually saving money :) Thx again!

Right! Like come on, just dropped $100 on stuff and you can’t toss in a sticker that cost 10 cents to make.

It wasn’t too bad, had about 8-10 inches of ice. And if you fall through no worries, fat bikes float!

Close! First week of October. It was AMAZING! 3rd time at Cuyuna and we have to say this has been our favorite!

Thanks! I probably got a couple months worth of videos to be released weekly on my hard drive. I like shooting videos/riding more than I like editing so many of them sit there…. For example, I shot this one last year! We got two spare bedrooms and a backyard fire pit so you’re welcome to crash here and extend your riding exploration next time you’re up nort’. We’re in the dead middle between WinMan and CAMBA.

Thanks! This drone doesn’t have forward facing collision detection so it struggles sometimes on tight singletrack. But shit, it flies itself! You just tell it to follow you, and it does!

Thanks, Im sure you’ll enjoy them! After using mine for a while I have to say that the cell phone pocket is AMAZING. It’s really intuitive and easy to access.

@ I am definitely going to try that pocket out for mine! What are your thoughts on freezing water in the reservoir the night before to keep the water cold. How often should it be cleaned out?

@@carolyn_sI don’t know if I would put the bladder in the freezer, expanding water and all. However, with its wide mouth it’s easy to add ice and I frequently fill mine up this way before adding water in the summer. I always give mine a good cleaning in the summer, and then maybe once halfway through summer if the water starts tasting funny. I use the little baby bottle cleaning tabs, they’re cheap and work great!

@ thanks for the tips! We got the cleaning tabs and brushes too.

If you can, test ride both and go from there.

You know, I can’t remember for certain. I’m looking at my shoes right now and under the insole there’s a thin plastic layer, with a door of sorts over the cleats, where the adapter goes. I want to say it was pre cut, but I believe I had to touch it up a bit with a razor blade to get it to pop open.

So you put in the adapter from the inside of the shoe, then put your insoles back in, put your cleats on the adapter, and go ride your bike!

@@BradyLikesBikes Thank you so much :)

Not so much Ive been finding. It is nice though for being able to see what the drone is seeing, and HoverAir has some information on the website that makes a good case for getting it.

Every year it gets better as the collection of decorations grows! It’s so much fun.

I agree! Overall I would say they’re perfect, especially for their price point.

It’s good! More mellow than Red Trail, but similar feel, but longer. I was expecting something like the old jump trail and return for length, but it just kept going and going and going. 10/10 recommend.

They’re the best!

The drone is at 4k 30 fps, H264, which is what it came set to. I haven’t tried playing with any of the camera settings yet. The GoPro is set to 1080 30 fps, protune on, -1 EV comp, white balance of 5000k, ISO min 1000, ISO max 3200, sharpness medium, color is flat. I'll admit these settings confuse me so all I did was find another mtb RUclipsr that had a video on how they set up their GoPro camera and followed what they did. I also don't use color adjustment stuff in DaVinci Resolve as that's way out of my skill set.

@@BradyLikesBikes The GO pro seems fine , but the X1 sky in between the trees is completely blown - see the weird color...

About 12 mph, so nothing too fast. I’ve been wanting to test the speed of it with my road bike, but it’s been rainy and cold every day since I went mountain biking.

It definitely did better following someone with the beacon than without. I’ll probably pick up some joysticks and see how well it works with those, with someone flying it.

@@BradyLikesBikes thank you for your reply. that is great to know that the beacon is really an additional help in increasing the follow capabilities. did u make a test up to what speed the drone can track you?

We got up to about 12 mph with it following us successfully. Tried going faster on some other trails but it was struggling a little bit with the tight vegetation. If I accelerated too quickly, like sprinting to hit a jump or a drop, it had a little trouble going from chill ride to warp speed, but if I ramped up my speed gradually it did better. I was hoping to play with it some more over the weekend with my road bike, but it was raining and in the 40s. I’m going mountain biking on Wednesday after work so I’ll try some more shots with it then. Hopefully I can figure out audio with the beacon too!

WinMan is a really fun trail system. They have trails for all riding abilities, and lots of the mellow trails have little bonus side lines where you can work on improving your skills before committing to a harder trail. It’s also great for experienced riders looking to ride with kids or someone that’s new to mtb’ing.

What computer are you using?

Nah, it’s now a skylight. We’re actually tearing down this half of the building and rebuilding it. Figured why not have some fun while doing some demo work.

All of them. They were actually pretty stunned already from my wife hitting them with hornet spray while my nephew threw rocks at the nest.

It did! Were tearing that part of the building off and redoing it. Figured might as well take advantage of the opportunity to shoot something in a way that would normally get me in trouble when I have the chance.

Don’t want to burn the whole cabin down, but it definitely would have been effective!

It was a blast! Thank you for putting it together!

Is it going in tight? If so you can try to lubricate it with a little rubbing alcohol. Helps with rubber parts and evaporates away.

Sweet! I definitely plan on being out next year as long as our team gets in! RW24 is one of the highlights of our summer. Maybe I’ll see you at Santa Rampage too.

Sorry to hear they didn’t fit you the best.

Yup! That trail is really fun.

@@ManmadeM0nster my wife always gets nervous when I ride out to this vista.

Ziplock bags are bigger and more expensive, but they can be used multiple times. You can use a condom a second time too though. Just got to turn it inside out and shake the f*ck out of it. Joking aside, this video is for entertainment purposes only, but I did put a condom in my internal frame storage bag as a last ditch CYA.

He’s been doing this every morning now for about a month. If I don’t “wake up” he’ll curl into a little ball of cat and snuggle for about an hour or so before trying to wake me up again.

@@BradyLikesBikes that’s so adorable
