I'm so glad to see Phil getting more support from big companies. Well deserved, the guy's a maniac! It's also weird as hell to watch him ride around on a skinny bike, but it's cool. We can get on board with it.
Currently sporting the 2015 GT Grade Carbon and I am super stoked to see the new upgraded model of this bike. I may have to upgrade my frameset for the increased tire clearance, new seat stay design, and the flip chip in the fork. Great video and cool to see Phil ripping the streets and trails on the new Grade.
Almost everyone rides a diamondback around where I live cause of Seth'sbikehacks, and everyone loves Phil too. Excited for you guys to be working with him, and excited for Phil! Whoo! Also ifht nice!
Love seeing Phil in something like this! However its unrealistic as everyone knows Phil is the nicest dude who would stop and apologize for 10 minutes for causing that guy to drop his beer ;)
Great commercial for GT bikes and promotion for Phil . Also good promotion for everyday riders. No Lycra needed. And that GT Grade looks like a pretty capable bike.
Phil's big time now. I grew up on GT bikes and have one now in my MTB stable. Interesting to me, you don't see as many here in the US as you do in Europe. (MTB specifically)
Sehr schönes Videos 👍🏻 bloß ich kann mir nicht vorstellen, dass dieses Bike solcher Action im Wald standhält... mein MTB GT Zaskar carb Elite 2018 welches ich mir letztes Jahr gekauft habe, kann das nicht mal… sofort eine „8“ in den Rädern, die Kette fällt andauernd runter, wenn ich am Berg anfahre dreht die Kette durch. Wenn das deren MTB nicht schafft wieso soll es ein Gravelbike machen? Für den schnellen Waldweg mit 1-2 kleinen Wurzeln garantiert super 👍🏻 und für bequemes schnelles fahren in der Stadt.
Unfortunatey I have the 2017 Carbon GT Grade. Could be a beautiful bike. On the very first ride going dowhill, used the brakes and an incredibly violent shudder on the fork had me on the very edge of control praying for my life. Two years with the dealer instaling new headsets, new compressor plugs, new brakes down to a new fork, wich being exatly the same did not solve the problem, obviously. I am terrified of picking up the bike and it sits on my garage for over one and a half years. And it will remain there. I see the new Grade has a much thicker lower legs fork. I see you were aware of this probem. I also see that you dont care about the people who had faith in you and purchased your product with the expectation of getting an outstanding bike. Wich could be if you cared. If you cared, you would had issued a recall. On the GT Grade Facebook group the are hundreds of reports including some pretty clear videos. Now that you have a new fork design, You should already have contacted the people and replaced the old forks for the new one. If You Cared. Shame on You GT.
For a MTBer, Phil fitted in a little too well with the hipster commuter crowd. Glad to see he ended up on some dirt otherwise I fear we'd loose him forever
Phil makes me want to get one. Smartest thing GT ever did was sponsoring him. Go Phil!
Phil was perfect for this video, great job!
Phil is the man. I'm glad they used him for this. Super nice bike too.
Exactly what I was thinking man
Hell yes Phil! - I am loving the new range of bikes GT well done :) also Phil and Wyn! defiantly subscribing!
MediumSkills Take that im subscribing weather u like it or not! Lol
Brilliant. From Phil's first facial expression in the cafe i suspected it was going to be a great video. haha
Glad to see Phil getting love from his sponsor with this video. Good work GT
Phil, l bet meeting and riding street with those young fellas was a blast. The whole vid looked fun to make. Loved it 👍
I'm so glad to see Phil getting more support from big companies. Well deserved, the guy's a maniac!
It's also weird as hell to watch him ride around on a skinny bike, but it's cool. We can get on board with it.
A guy like Phil Kmetz makes me want to get out and ride a bike more!
Glad to see GT gets that and has him on board.
Phil has a way of making you want to go ride a bike. Such a good video.
I do believe this will be a break out year for PK!!! Killing it on every front. Go get em Phil🤘
GT is the demo bike at Whistler this year too. Good on GT for supporting a guy like Phil with so much raw talent further than can be shown in a race.
Phil Kmetz on a Gravel bike, unsuspected but very cool!
Awesome video, GT. Kudos to the creative team.
Phil FTW!
Much admiration goes out to Phil and GT. Uplifting video.
Nice job Phil. I would have honestly never watched this video without your involvement. You’ve done your job!!
Thanks Barry! I had a really fun time on set for this video, I'd love to do something like this again.
Phil is the man! Now I'm interested in the bike! Marketing success! Well done GT
Well deserved Phil. Good to see you with the support and recognition you deserve after all you have done for the mountainbike community 🤘😎
Phil makes you want to ride for sure. Great video!

Nice fun video to start the weekend!
Phill is the man - He's got me looking at GT!
Sooo good! Love seeing Phil in the mix, and the grade is a thrashing bike. Just got one before winter, loving it. Shred on!
The shop scene and beer scene are great. Thumb up!
Glad to see the brand making a comeback. I used to have a GT Speed Series pro box. Memories. 😃
I had a the a GT box series too; I had some of my best BMX race results on it, I miss that bike!
Skills With Phil. Same here, I have some of my best memories on that bike. They should re-release those frames. Damn those were good.
Almost everyone rides a diamondback around where I live cause of Seth'sbikehacks, and everyone loves Phil too. Excited for you guys to be working with him, and excited for Phil! Whoo! Also ifht nice!
Great video. Awesome riding Phil!
Phil! Woo! Damn, now I want that gravel bike! GT just teases me!
I love how all the bikes in the video were GTs from the Performer wheelie bikes to the Sensor mtbs 😆
@@endianAphones I'm just thinking the attention to detail and amount of bikes was very impressive
That was great! Well done Phil
perfect bike ad, i love it
Congratulations Phil, your investment in the sport and your hard work on youtube and your infectious personality are taking you far.
Cool! Great production, great music and terrific showcase of skills and equipment. Well done. Enjoyable.
Awesome work Phil 👍🏻
Brilliant video, very well produced
I would buy a GT for sure. Keep on keeping up the innovation and quality and GT will be back in the game again.
That's awesome to see Phil. Nice choice GT 👌
I had an awesome GT mach one bmx back in the day
Nice work by phil
You need to take that bike to RAYS this winter!
Wow! Phil superstar 🤩 That's more like it!
An awesome bike now even better !!! Go Phil Go !
Awesome 👍 Phil!
Love my GT ☮️ Peace 9R!
I didn't expect less from Phill in an asphalt bike, awesome shots btw totaly loved it!
In the best possible way, this reminded me of the bike movie Tread from 1993. Just fun unhindered cycling
Skills with Phil, Woooow
Now this is how you do a bike commercial!!! I want a gravel/adventure bike so badly!
Great riding, great filming, great video!!
Clicked on this not knowing it was skills with Phill continued watching cause it was skills with Phill
I love phill man he’s the best
Great video.. Yay Phil
I see Phil, I like. And probably get a new bike because of him. Great job Phil!
Love seeing Phil in something like this! However its unrealistic as everyone knows Phil is the nicest dude who would stop and apologize for 10 minutes for causing that guy to drop his beer ;)
Great commercial for GT bikes and promotion for Phil . Also good promotion for everyday riders. No Lycra needed. And that GT Grade looks like a pretty capable bike.
Phil was the perfect choice!!!!!
Skills with Phil
OMG Phil is awesome. Great video!!!
Phil is the best! :-)
I was about to close the window when Phil walked into the Rapha "Club House"...So glad I held on!
Phil is a perfect match for GT bicycles; that bike looks sick 💯
Phil is the best!
Super stoked for you Phil!🔥
Super Entertaining!
Urban drop bar Phil!!!
Howdy Phil. Nice to see you here.
One of the greatest cyclism video I have ever seen
Just perfect !
Phil's big time now. I grew up on GT bikes and have one now in my MTB stable. Interesting to me, you don't see as many here in the US as you do in Europe. (MTB specifically)
Enjoyed watching this clip
Yeah Phil, great job dude🤙🏻
Skills with Phil and mahalo my dude??!?!
Bingo, well technically IFHT is their production company name when they work for other companies and MMD is their youtube channel.
Grade is my dream bike.
Can't seem to find sizing info on this bike. Can everyone share what size they are riding? Thx in advance.
This makes me almost miss riding in Manhattan, and really miss riding up along the Hudson River.
Congrats Phil!!! 🤙
I never realised how jacked Phil was
Phil with Seth will be great
Dave Grohl in bike! XD Nice video!
Sehr schönes Videos 👍🏻 bloß ich kann mir nicht vorstellen, dass dieses Bike solcher Action im Wald standhält... mein MTB GT Zaskar carb Elite 2018 welches ich mir letztes Jahr gekauft habe, kann das nicht mal… sofort eine „8“ in den Rädern, die Kette fällt andauernd runter, wenn ich am Berg anfahre dreht die Kette durch. Wenn das deren MTB nicht schafft wieso soll es ein Gravelbike machen?
Für den schnellen Waldweg mit 1-2 kleinen Wurzeln garantiert super 👍🏻 und für bequemes schnelles fahren in der Stadt.
Love this video. I'm actually going to be getting a GT in like 2 days. Great timing for the vid 🤘
He all yeah Phil!!!!!

Two years with the dealer instaling new headsets, new compressor plugs, new brakes down to a new fork, wich being exatly the same did not solve the problem, obviously.
I am terrified of picking up the bike and it sits on my garage for over one and a half years. And it will remain there.
I see the new Grade has a much thicker lower legs fork. I see you were aware of this probem. I also see that you dont care about the people who had faith in you and purchased your product with the expectation of getting an outstanding bike. Wich could be if you cared.
If you cared, you would had issued a recall. On the GT Grade Facebook group the are hundreds of reports including some pretty clear videos. Now that you have a new fork design, You should already have contacted the people and replaced the old forks for the new one.
If You Cared.
Shame on You GT.
Alexandre Direitinho I’ve had mine for a couple years and have a few buddies with the same bike. Never had an issue.
Good for you mate.
YEAH PHIL!
I love my Grade👊👊👊 I have no idea who Phil is though 🤔😁
Gold!
Skills with Phil!
Do mahalo my dude team work on this film?
Yes they said they worked on it with Phil
Yes, good bikes
Very nice!
Does anyone know where that last shot or sequence was filmed??
Minnewaska State Park Preserve in New York, it's a really beautiful area.
Yes. More fun, less of the lycra-aero-Strava-watt-per-kg obsession.
Phil on a dropbar ?
crazy, we know, but he definitely knew how to shred it!
Great job for phil
Now that was a good film
What trails are these?
Did IFHT film this? I saw it in a few of their videos lol
Yup and they killed it like they always do!
Why did you take all her coffee? not cool bro
I don't get it.
Skills With Phil... Yes!
For a MTBer, Phil fitted in a little too well with the hipster commuter crowd. Glad to see he ended up on some dirt otherwise I fear we'd loose him forever
