Regarding mtb suspension: if you've bottomed it out and you didn't felt it you are spot on with the pressure. Dial in the damping to your liking but not to slow and you're set up. Then there would be the possibility to improve small bump sensitivity and bottom out resistance by implanting a volume spacer in the positive airchamber of your fork or damper
@@jasperverkuijl the obvious one is CX when the season starts....I think that there's a fun comedic tone to your videos that would make it real fun to watch.
The footage of you burning over the tracks and the interesting talkovers are so nice to watch! Especially races like these are great fun!! Keep up the great work!👌💪
@@jasperverkuijl Don't worry, you'll catch the bug to I bet... Next year I expect some Mega Avalanche footage top to bottom will be a nice 2 to two and a half hour video! Or, your competitive ego might be dented by this comment and you'll do it one and a half ;) Seriously though, I live next to two courses ( well within a few km ) and I live in North Holland so you can't really get any flatter I'm pretty sure I''m riding my mtb in the same place fish used to swim not that long ago. And I feel envious every time I watch a video of a downhill park, or even just those single tracks which can go on forever. The longest XC look I riden in NL is Schoorl lol Not that it's 'bad', I think it's great.. maar het gras lijkt altijd groener ergens anders ;) edit: btw I realize Schoorl is in the dune's mostly and wasn't ever 'where the fish swim' but Noord-Scharwoude en Heerhugowaard.. Heck je moet op de 'uitkijkheuvel' staan om over de ringdijk te kijken 😂😂
Great racing Jasper! In future, if you suspect the course is going to be muddy, change the tyres out to something with more tread, and let the pressure down.
Yeah, the rest of the track was quite dry so 🤷🏼♂️ Also it would be quite an effort to change tires last minute 😅 (don’t have multiple Mtb wheelset, usually very busy on days before and after races… so not sure when i would do that haha)
@@jasperverkuijl Yeah, that is fair. I personally run Schwalbe Rapid Rob and Racing Ralph tyres because they have a lot of grip, but still have great rolling resistance. Then, you will never have to change out your tyres because they are suited to all conditions.
Great work - proper entertaining! Love the learning experience. My takeaway: get there early, get to the start line at the front and then stay there. And if you're gonna crash, block the single track;)
Nice job Jasper!! This looks like a lot of the trails I ride in west Michigan so for me it definitely counts as MTB man. Yea there is gnarlier shit up north and in other spots in the US but I think if you popped over to the US you would really enjoy a number of the trails Michigan has to offer.
Jasper taking is personally that the Netherlands does not have any Mountains! LOL! I once won a can of brown gravy for winning a race in November at Thanksgiving.
@@jasperverkuijl yes for now it's ok, but if you want you can add volume spacers / tokens. Simple explanation: Airpressure is for setting up sag like a tire. Volume tokens are for bottom-out resistance. For your tires it does sound you have way to much pressure. Try the silica tirepressue calculator! I'm 72kg, a hard charging xc rider with 2.4" tires at 18psi for reference! I love the mtb content, keep up the work!
@@sandertakkenberg1197 thanks mate. I had one of these “volume spacers” in the front fork of my previous Mtb for this exact reason 👍🏻 maybe need one in this fork too.
Hi Jasper! Nice footage and race as always! My only (minor) complaint is that the two nearly identical maps at the top-corners are a bit distracting, maybe showing only one route would also be sufficient. Cheers!
Mmmm, I thought they would give a bit more detail. The left top shows the full thing (so you can see where in the lap I am), yhe right is more zoomed in so you see the actual trail routing. Anyways, it’s all changeable etc 🤙🏻
One of the key things is to be smooth and controlled in the slippery mud. It’s better to be slower and in control rather than being hyper aggressive and then crashing and losing time and potentially ending your race
Very interesting video 👍🏿😄! You learn so much about mountain biking and especially during the race. Choosing the right lines, knowing when to overtake, saving energy for the good moments... that's what makes this discipline so charming. Thanks for the comments and hope to see you on another race.😉🦵🏿
as an xc racer my self you did great on catching al of those guys even starting from the back. keep it up 👏👏 ps my average HR for a race is 187 and my max wil be around 198 or higer but i am stil young so it is possible for me to sustain such high HR for a race
Zo te zien heb je de Fox 34 vork wat zou betekenen dat je een travel hebt van 120mm. Dat is in elk geval wel een beetje de nieuwe standaard aan het worden voor XC Fietsen. Lekker gereden overigens, wat je zegt flow maakt een hoop verschil je kunt echt veel winnen zonder echt elke keer te hoeven sprinten als je in de flow kunt blijven.
Thank you for your new video. Jasper explain me please what is the benefits of using power meter in such races. I use it in mtb but when the race is so dynamic as this one it's almost impossible to analyze it during such race, comparing to bmp metrics that is not jumping so fast. My question is : " is it worth to buy it for cross country racing?"
I agree. I would not look at it like on the road. But you can always analyze stuff and it would give a better calculation for carb burn etc too. ( in the EatMyRide app) Im also doing a 7 hour race later this year which will be different trails with more steady efforts. Than it may be valuable
@@jasperverkuijl For Enduro racing you need an enduro bike (160-170 mm travel at the back, usually 170-180 mm at the front, and a slacker head tube angle
@@jasperverkuijl exactly and in big races like FInale Liguri, you have for the Pro category 2800 m ascent and 45 kms+ to cover in trasnfers. However, going down is actually the difficult part :D
Speed is your friend in a rock garden most of the time. ( not always) It takes a little nerve sometimes but with some speed you go "over" the top of the rockgarden instead of thru it. A little like riding cobbles, but more drastic 😅😂
Hey, yeah I see. In this case the part right after the rocks was super slippery and was downhill and into a sharp turn so think only way was to go slow🤷🏼♂️ But I get what you mean, faster is better!🤝🏻
Love the videos Jasper! Sorry dude, not mountain biking just because you are on dirt. 😁 I am from Colorado so rocks, roots, steep, and fun. But you kicked A$$ in that race.
Naja ik vind het allebei wel lachen eigenlijk! De momenten waarop ik niemand voor of achter me had vond ik een beetje saai ofzo. Met wegwielrennen gebeurt dat niet zo vaak. Ja ik had veel teveel. 1.5/1.7 oid dacht ik….. met Bartje200 reed ik met 1.35/1.5 met zelfde banden…. Dus gewoon stomme fout. Ik dacht stenen, stoot lek/schade dus meer druk maar…
@@jasperverkuijl ik vind met mountainbiken dat je vooral heel de rit scherp moet blijven en heerlijk aan het intervallen bent. En inderdaad als je alleen fietst, dan is het eenzaam...tenzij je voorop fietst! Haha. 1.35 voor en 1.50 achter is inderdaad denk ik net wat beter. Kan je harder insturen ook. Voorwiel veel grip.
Wanneer komt je video online voor de kwalificatie voor de wk gravel trouwens;). Zag dat je beelden had uitgeleend aan douwe;). Hij heeft ook altijd pech...😂
Mmm, my bmx skills are a basis of all my riding. So it will be a massive difference. I’m sure it would be different from someone that would only have a few years cycling on the road experience
On the chain-wax website it says to wax after 150km!!! Lolololo: are they trolling or is this wax for sunday-riders. I ride that in a day, I can't way three times a week 🤣
If you hotwax, it will last very long. (Way more than 150km) If you ride on the road, it will last even longer. Than you only have to apply a bit of drip wax to keep it in top shape. I think the website gives different advice in different situations. I’ve done 200km in 1 ride in a sandy desert (Dubai) without extra application and it was still silent. Check my 2 recent videos in Dubai for more about the wax.
Here is how you tell what kind of race it is…what kind of bike was everyone riding? Thats it, thats the answer. Too rough for a road bike? Then its a gravel race. Too big of drops to not have suspension? Then its a mountain bike race. I am from Colorado and anyone who says this isnt enough climbing hasn’t ridden up a muddy hill recently enough. That mud looked like the kind that is both sticky and slippery at the same time.
@@jasperverkuijl ik zelf rijd maar mtb sturen van 700 mm dit is goed voor de aero je kan ook wat spacers onder je stuur halen zodat je jouw stuur lager word
Lol people Really say This isnt mtb? It for sure isnt road riding and not even gravel so Yeah, 100% mtb. This is how i picture XC with alot of smaller ups and downs and a ton of built obstacles
Hey Jasper whats with the mind set of i would like to get on the podium wtf thats like saying i,m only going to eat 90 % of my pizza why are you not thinking i,m going to fkn win i have faith you can win this pity about your shit start , my number one tip is get on the front row no matter the looks you get and go fkn nutts from the start and make them chase you .

The track is typical of an Xc course in the uk. So I would say it’s 100% mtb

Bottom out the suspension doesn't mean it has to be hardened. Using your suspension's full travel a couple times in a ride is normal.
Ok 👍🏻 so maybe keep it like this is ok?
