A great interview with such a likeable and interesting guest.

Thanks for having me along Chris, always great to sit down for a chat!

Aaaaaand thats exactly why Im confused why they didnt update the Enduro before releasing another iteration of the Stumpjumper. But Im sure they’ll get around to it eventually.

I'm so thankful you published the eneitre interview and not just some highlights from it (or cutting out the silence). Amazing!

The enduro is severely outdated. I rode one at Angel Fire and felt the rear tends to catch on edges robbing momentum.

Media companies are driven by ratings, not the passion. The spectacle of DH resonates as a marketable product. As a governing body UCI should be focussed on participation. How many DH bikes have been sold versus trail and enduro bikes. How many people race the formats at all levels… You can’t even easily find the EDR- Enduro listed as a format listed on their website let alone the race schedule. No consideration of time zones, and making live streamed content available in a timely fashion. Thank you Chazmaz Tv for all your energy and dedication to the sport.

Nina is such a good sport! I'd really love to have Monika Hrastnik on here one day just because how awesome you're with the interviews!😎

Enduro mtb should have been the relatable and product shoowcase seems like organizers marketing issue

Great episode, I race Dh in the 34-41 age group over here in BC and really enjoy listening to how you guys go about your weekend and trying to fit training in during the week while working and having a family. Question tho about the Tru tune, where you running them with volume spacers or did you remove them, or did you have any spacers in to begin with? Thanks

Like Charlie says Enduro is real mountain biking. Also drives development in the bike most people buy and ride.

Truly good! I love that you mentioned her master's thesis, it seems like a really interesting topic. Mach weiter so, Nina, es ist nur eine Frage der Zeit, bis du die Nr. 1 bist!

Fascinating interview

Good interview I’d love to know what knee brace she used, it’s hard to find one that good specifically for biking

Enduro great fun to do shit to watch, shit to marshall, shit to tape, shit to film, shit to medic its dead apart from participation only.

Great interview. lots of info.

I did what we call a Brown Star on a stumpy - A back flip naked while voiding your Bowels.

I went up 2 on the front and unlocked the speed. We have faster trails. You can still get up anything with a 34/50 on an Ebike.

Your podcasts are really excellent 👍

Great timing with Nina's US Open win yesterday. Looking forward to it.

Also because an enduro is outdated nowadays. Not the geo in numbers itself but the overall feel and turning is far from the modern agility and balance of current enduro bikes

Its what we do every weekend, trail/enduro bike ride on our local trails yet the coverage is crap by UCI, im glad some of the racers like yourself have your own channel and give a better coverage. Hope UCI wakes up!

2 seasons later and they have still learnt nothing....

The problem with Specialized mtbs is Santa Cruz. They are equal in so many ways that the SC frames being slightly cheaper (CC vs S Works) and the free bearings for life vs £100 a year, that adds up to a big difference for someone who changes frame bearings 1-2 times a year. Also, buying a high end factory bike, Reserve rims are lifetime no questions asked on alloy and carbon rims and SC are so so good with warranty. I get rims in a day or so after a claim. Currently have a 2018 Enduro Ohlins coil with a reserve alloy on CH on the rear after trashing the Roval carbon with no warranty. I will probably move over to SC and ride a Hightower in the next few years, unless the enduro frame cracks and I get a warranty on it.

This tip also applies to analogue bikes. Switching from a 32 tooth to a 30 tooth chainring has been one of the best changes I've made this past year. My local rides start with a really steep climb every time and I just got sick and tired of red-lining every time. I'm convinced that 98% of consumers would be better off with a smaller chainring. I rarely use my smallest cog --if ever--whether I'm running 32T or 30T even during enduro races.

Cool, didn’t want to hear the answer anyway

Diabetic Budweiser gladiators are the problem

I'm STROOONGLY opiniated that this is mainly UCI's fault. They push Road racing and XC A LOOOOOT more than they do Enduro. UCI is just lazy and greedy. They could give rights to several people for less money and let for example Redbull broadcast it. The problem is not just in teams, keeping hush just so they can keep the jobs, that to me is a hostage situation more than a sport. UCI needs to lose title of the world series, we need to find a way, to make new series I hope RedBull Hardline is one of them and slowly introduce own World Cup level of track in next 5-10 years. Teams are already paying the entry, why not to somebody else than greedy UCI.

I feel like I never see GoPro footy of the stages? Am I just missing it or is it like not allowed or riders prefer to avoid it? I understand we're never gonna have... Cameras covering entire tracks. But for post-production it's clear GoPro clips are invaluable.

It’s the European enduro series. Not a World Series. And the coverage has been dog shit.

Racing and UCI sucks

That is a weird take. The audience should pretend everything is amazing and the racers should shut up or 'eff off.

Because the Enduro doesn’t have a udh

Build the hype on practice short clips and interviews who’s looking good who’s struggling and race day build it up with clips and updates on social media and last stage show it live like they have it fastest man or woman last down the stage and get interviews with riders as they finish so we are invested in how there day went

Love Charlie and Jack's coverage of enduro. It is more relatable to avg mtb'ers. I could actually seeing myself riding a stage and not injuring myself :) There are lots of things you could do, if funds and support available, to make the coverage more inclusive and draw the viewer in. I watch the DH race coverage too, but mostly from the riders, BK, Troy, and Pinkbike's Ben Cathro coverage.

I wish there were more enduro races showcased

I think DH and enduro events and athletes should combine. Enduro is pretty much all lift access now anyway. Use enduro courses with everything else being DH based. Reduces costs and won’t split the fan base and sponsorships etc.

Your podcasts are so high quality and incredibly useful - thanks for the great work 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙌🏽

I am just going to say that these guys also have insane fitness to ride lighter lower travel suspension bikes on the enduro stages. So us mortals are most likely faster on a enduro than on stumpy evo just because the fatigue is lower on enduro. If you have the fitness go for the stumpy evo or stumpy 15 but i belive 90% of us would feel riding hard enduro more fun on the enduro

Charlie is very articulate and easy to listen. all branded up. a real pro

I had a 2016 stumpy (loved it) and now I have a 2020 Enduro (absolutely love it). I can definitely see how the stumpy can be faster on non-gnarly trails. For me I wanted a bike that could do it all. I can’t imagine taking the stumpy to a bike park, even though I’m sure it would do just fine with the type of stuff I’m hitting. The Enduro can be too much bike on flow/cross country trails, but it’s still such an awesome bike.

Great video!! You asked what would he change for a bike park setting with big hits but he went on another subject. What would be the answer to that ? Thank you 👍🏻

ALN is such an impressive character ! Love her and what she has to say

Charlie is right, all the negativity from Pinkbike mainly the comments has cast a shadow over the series, admittedly the highlights show took a really bad turn especially when they only showed the top three, that’s no been corrected and the series should be back to its best, I’d prefer a return to the two day format.

Great insights and loving the positivity - to one of Charlie's later points, I think too much negativity comes from, I believe, it being to easy to get clicks and likes for being anti-WB-establishment. It does feel like there's been an investment in the racing and if E-EDR is dropped next year the post race WB content will be out a lot quicker after the race, this year it just took too long. That's not to say ChazMazTV can slack off! They cop a lot of flack, but love that Specialized back his channel and him giving time and exposure to other teams' riders. I like to support riders with the likes and comments, ironically I have been having problems with Instagram deleting comments, especially where I try and tag a sponsor in a rider's post as Instagram says I'm trying to attract followers! Unlike the millionaire that's on every post wondering what to do with his money.

Charlie is the man! Love to watch him race and seems like a great dude.

I really enjoy watching and listening to Charlie. Long live enduro racing!!! It's the closest to the bikes and the type of riding most of us do.

Neko is such a humble, insightful guy to hear. All the support for the frameworks project! This is great stuff

Chaz!

Awesome stuff guys, props to both of you!
