I was living in Madrid when the first Rallon came out. My bike shop had one and I fell in love with it. Pablo who with his brother Miguel ran Ciclos Delicias told me to wait 2 or even 3 years because it would be then that it was a super bike. In the end I stayed with Kona but I look at this bike now and just say... Orbea.
I wished that you delivered more information about the technical history of the bikes which are used for the EWS or generally for Enduro in the last 20 years, Neil.
Neil can only give as much, He is mainly a Rider. That task is for Doddy or Martin or Even Blake. Neil is not really a tech smart guy but more of a Ex Pro World Cup rider which he is. LOL
Yeah I was a little disappointed by this video. I looked forward to see the bikes of yesteryear - maybe start with the first Specialized Enduro - and compare their tech and geometry.
I've wondered if terrain is keeping up with bikes, or vice versa? A prime example is the Zeb, did anyone 'need' a longer travel single crown fork, or does it's existence allow manufacturers to create a new class of 'super-Enduro' bike, and riders/trail builders/race organisers to incorporate terrain that previously wasn't rideable?
Is anyone able to upload the rallon profile image in the competition? I get the error that I should verify that it is not bigger than 25 MB even though it is only 294 kB.
Would this Enduro bike be capable of doing DH racing? since bikes these days are so similar, I feel like they can do most things. If not, which Enduro bike do you think can handle it? I want to ride the Enduro as my main ride, do races, but also consider a DH race with it too. Also considering the transition Sprie and Evil Wreckoning. But maybe there are others?
Lately I prefer VitalMTB over GMBN. GMBN is only covering their sponsors. Enduro riding because you got partnership with EWS, Canyon / Nukeproof bikes. It's very repetitive. Sorry just sharing my opinion.
@@ApexHerbivore I did say it was good but ppl are getting fed up with their consent sponsorship adverts!! And it not just me...they are loosing viewership numbers hand over fist!! My point is that if they keep going in the direction they are going, they won't have anyone to watch their videos which means no more gmbn and iv been watching them since they started!! The presenters all know their stuff so let them present without ads and you will see more ppl come back!!
Way too much hassle, I ll leave this for people that realy need a new bike. I m happy with my SC Megatower custom build. Good luck for those that enter, or how we say it over here in spain: buena suerte amigos !!!!
Despite the fact that Enduro represents more mountain bikers than either XC or Downhill it remains the poor cousin. I’m not sure I can explain this but perhaps those on the inside can.
With the prices of modern Enduro bikes I definitely wouldn’t call it the poor cousin.. In my RUclips bubble I get more enduro coverage than XC and downhill combined.
Well I still think downhill is more viewed on TV, because you can sit down and watch for 1h 30min and the show is over. Also its super exciting at the end when some riders take the 1st place by a full second etc. This is something enduro will never achieve. As it are multiple rides, and cannot get that exciting at the end I would say.
@@rolux4853 absolutely agree. Overall though downhill gets the prime coverage. I just think Enduro doesn’t get the cred that the other disciplines do. Might be because it’s not a one and done. It takes the whole weekend.
@@TrIpMo1981 I think you nailed it. One and done. Enduro has been around in Motorsport for ages but the premier attraction is still motocross and of course GP
@Holla donald that's why you need the help of a professional who trade and understand the market more to earn good income, these professionals understand the market like it's there own farm and make s maximum profit for investors.
@@davidquirozramirez2167 Yeah, first investment with Mr Gary Ralph earned me profit of over $25,530 US dollars, and ever since then he has been delivering
GMBN content is not what it used to be. So much sponsorship shoved in your face in all the content. Such a shame they got the deal to cover the EWS so now you have to sift through all the BS just to catch up on the racing.
RUclips videos have ads by default... also have you ever watched pinkbike or vital? Or literally any other professional mtb media outlet? Nobody else jams non-skippable ads down your throat like GMBN. And I'm not the only one who wants to keep up with the EWS without sifting through all the other BS of GMBN. Would be so much better if PB or Redbull got the deal to cover the races.
Lord ganesha please give me this bike . You know my situation I barely earn. Please give me this bike. Every day I dream about full suspension. Please make my dream true. Even my 2 years combined salary cannot afford this bike 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Win one of these bikes here! gmbn.eu/MyORallon
❤️❤️
I dont see the Rallon as selectable in the MyO configurator. I tired changing regions too. ***Never mind its fixed now.
It would be awesome if I won because I realy need a bike and I can't afford one
if only orbea's webpage wasn't that slow... ;)
can't wait for the result
Did I win!?

I love how Neil presented this advertisement in his normal unenthusiastic voice 😂
That is determination, Neil doing the video in the rain like it is not there
Love the history vids, time sure goes by fast. Great job Neil.
Looks great! Nice to have that storage space and hidden tool compartment.

That black R6 looks sick
Nice Bike..Hope someday i will ride this bike...From Cebu,Philippines..Keep Riding and Keep Safe
This video was released even before Orbea's one. 🥵
when do you want to set the flip chip to low and when to lower?
Amazing riding, editing n film quality, i'm doni cilik from Indonesia
Who here wishes they could own a bike like this
I am now at the point that I really want to travel Europe to race enduro, but firstly, I need a proper Enduro, i hope I win!!!!
Great content 🤙 the design on my ORBEA is nice 😎
Need to try this bike
Hearing Neil say Rallon instead of Rayon is painful :O
I’m pretty sure the name is Rallon
@@elitevexor7887 quesadilla (Kay-suh-Dee-ya)
Same concept. It’s rayon bud…
He pronounces POLE as POLE-Ā…. 🤷🏽… So there’s that
Wouldn't he know better than anyone? He was at an orbea tent the other day.
Great video!
Great history flash
Is someone able to pick the Rallon for the customisation for the contest? Missing from the list.
Its fixed now
I didn't see an option to purchase the Orbea with 650b on the rear.
Love my Orbea Occam but wouldn't mind the enduro offering aha

What size Orbea rallon is Neil riding ?
Is anyone able to upload the rallon profile image in the competition? I get the error that I should verify that it is not bigger than 25 MB even though it is only 294 kB.
Yes
What is the probablity of getting one?
I feel like you missed out on NZ there mate. Nevertheless, shout out to Kiwi trail blazers out there 🙏🏽😊
Orbeas are awesome! :)
It looks a lot like a stumpy? It looks good.

Evil Wreckoning V3 100%
I want a gmbn brand mountain bike
Sickk
Began riding Orbea rigs in 1992. Still can't get free-stuff to test. Guess they don't like my honesty.

History of dh bikes
🤘😈
Video was good until it became an advert for orbea!!
It's still good, lots of interesting info.
Do you expect 10+ people to spend all their time making videos for you and not get paid for it??

Investing in crypto now should be in every wise individuals list. In some months time you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today
The reality of the rich and the poor is this: the rich invest their money and spend what is left. The poor spend their money and invest what is left
Crypto is the new gold

Title says Evolution ... but this is just a sales pitch (and not too good one)
You forgot South Africa....The 🐐 is world champ.
Gregg is Downhill Champ not Enduro Champ!! But he is a great rider
Not in Enduro even if he most likely would have been on top of even in this discipline.
Hey 👋
These ads are boring and repetitive but other content is nice.
Is this totally sweet?
BIKE SALES HERE WHERES THE ENDURO HISTORY DEPTH ?
Doddy just did an episode on brands with the "x-factor". For me, Orbea just isn't one of them.
half of the video was just an add :(
O
GMBN content is not what it used to be. So much sponsorship shoved in your face in all the content. Such a shame they got the deal to cover the EWS so now you have to sift through all the BS just to catch up on the racing.
Please explain who this would done without the sponsors.

The XC is the king. My opinion...
Not as capable. It would break before the enduro. ;)
Damn those or Orbea’s are a ugly bike
