Mtnbkmaniac I just saw this guy on Facebook, I saw it was at Athens and I though “ oooooh another local rider lol” nice to see someone else is making mountain bike videos in Ohio!
Nice bike, I looked at a few Pivots but seemed to be $5500.00 and up even with Shimano not Eagle so I ended up buying a 2018 Canyon Spectral AL and recently installed a pair of 2019 Mavic XA carbon wheels and Fizik M-1 seat, I didn't want to break the bank on my 1st FS bike, very happy with it especially for 2400.00 and Eagle GX, just put in some semi metallic brake pads and I can really notice the difference
@@JasonBikes Thanks and yes I feel I did. It won many awards the last few years and Single Track Sampler [STS] here on youtube had a 2018 and he is a SERIOUS rider who rides ALL terrain loved his but now I think is riding a 2019 Strive with 29 inch wheels. An entry level Stump Jumper for comparison with NX not GX was $3100.00 so I saved $700.00. I am 64 so I am not a double black diamond rider but a few weeks ago I was in Charlotte at the White Water park riding some Rooty trails on decent inclines with switch backs, stopped and walked short distances a few times and I felt fine and accomplished the next day
Wow it’s amazing, enjoyed watching it, thnx for sharing, stay safe.
Looks like a really cool trail. Tech and flow, nice combo.
Nice riding, beautiful trail and sure does look like Ohio

First they have to find Athens! The creak is part of #secrettraining 😂

The creaking is how you know it's working!

@@Theallterraindude this is where i wanted to hit a few weeks ago
"It USED to be well-signed" 😂🤣
Killer video clarity!
ROOTS!
ROCKS!
RADICAL!
I assume at 2:22 by the disappointing "Uh?" that was some kind of rock drop to the right of you?
Thanks, I honestly can't remember what was going through my head 🤣. Watching back I wish I had rolled that rock.
@@JasonBikes I'll be there in 3 weeks, I'll yell your name when I hit!

Sounds like you made a good choice, do you enjoy riding it?
