    Darren Berrecloth almost single-handedly changed the direction of freeride mountain biking when he showed up at Red Bull Rampage in 2002. The Claw's ability to fuse BMX style tricks into big mountain lines showed the rest of us what was possible, and gave us all insight into the future of freeride mountain biking.
    But, it hasn't always been big drops and shredding gnarly trails. The rigged frame and lack of suspension in the early mountain bikes made it difficult do much more than go straight. Over the years, the evolution of the modern mountain bike has opened the doors to a vast landscape of new terrain, and the progression of the sport has been unstoppable since.
    To celebrate the evolution of the cycle, Darren Berrecloth shreds some of BC's finest and explains why he fell in love with going really fast down a mountain on two wheels.

    We don't have those kind of real MTB trails over here, only jungle forests.
    Those new bikes are great, had my first Cannondale 31 years ago, now I am on an Easy going beginners bike again (Giant Trance-2. 2015). Great bike for old-timers like me.

    The first mountain bikes were modified paper route bikes or beach cruisers from Schwinn in the mid-late 1970's and 1980's started in Northern California. When alloy rims were still fairly new, large alloys were made and put on these bike along with tube forks, alloy goose neck, hand brakes, and BMX tires. Some Kids may have custom painted their bikes and changed the handle bars and added lights. Shortly afterward bike manufacture started creating a angular large bike frames and adding all the accessories the kids did along with gears. These became the first mountain bikes mass produced. The BMX bike also evolved similarly but earlier on in the 1970's kids removed the banana seat, added a ten speed seat, removed all fenders and reflectors, chain guard, added knobby tires to their bikes these were the first BMX bikes, eventually new aftermarket handlebars and hand grips were made to look like dirt motorcycle type bars and grips along with other accessories and parts. Oakley bike grips (yes that Oakley) were the rage early on. Schwinn, Redline Mongoose, Huffy, Royce Union, Murry and others made the first original mass produced versions of BMX in varying quality.

    It'd be interesting to see the history of offroad bikes. In 1982 I had an already years old bike (don't know how old, but in 82 I abused the heck out of it high up in the Sierra Mountains). It had a soft rectangle seat that was about like a 10" 2x4, similar to a motorcycle seat, and it was supported in the rear by two significant and effective spring shocks, and the front had an interesting and very effective spring shock that only had the drawback of being overloaded and locking into a "down" position, so I'd have to pop it back up to give it its 4" or so of travel. It was stiff enough I never had trouble with steering, but it could take a heck of a hit and not pass that up to the handlebars. It also had wide tires on it, was single speed, and had only the standard (pedal) rear brake. By far though that was my favorite and most comfortable bike for offroad, much better than the expensive Specialized bike I bought as an adult. I wish I still owned it.

The changes in mtb tech and riding style has developed so much in this time. I cant wait to see what else the future holds as stuff just keeps on getting better all the time. Cheers.

    People bitching about this video are silly. He talks briefly about the history of mountain bike design from his experience/perspective and what kind of model designs brought him back to the sport. The video of him riding his Enduro IS history. Look at the different styles of riding in this video -- if you remember some of the old NWD or Kranked films, you'd see that he's stuffing all the different disciplines and styles of riding into one clip on one bike.

    The bikes have come a long way but the price tag has gone even further. I'm stuck on my 1999 fsr stumpjumper because I can not justify $4000 for a bike without a motor. $4k is entry level before upgrades at that. I may upgrade to a newer bike soon but it will not be a new one.
