Chris Akrigg - One Gear No Idea
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- Chris's first ever attempt at riding a fixed gear bike. Hours after building the Mongoose Maurice bike for the first time, having never ridden fixed before, this is what Chris came up with.
This video still goes hard
I fucking love that you of all people commented here with this comment. This is fucking sick. Love the edits you've been doing lately Matt and your clip on the new Mash steel frame where you did the road jump gap is so rad. Keep killing it man
So true when this was new it was absolutely mind blowing, but being honest it still is. All of the tricks are without any foot retention!
Also great to see you matt keeping the "track bike" fixed gear steert tricks alive. I really enjoy these actual 700c bikes doing tricks than these almost bmx like fixies.
the wheelie control is unbelievable...perfectly still!
I like how he picked it up for a few days and he could be a god among hipsters world wide..
+jmendoza328 do you think that's really what attracts hipsters to fixies.. I guess you can't do these kind of tricks on a road or mountain bike, so it's an inbetween a trials and other standards
+jmendoza328 he is a professional trail rider. he is much better at bike handling than the vast majority of bike riders.
+Omar Ibrahim I'm a fan of Chris Akrigg and that's why clicked on the video, I also trail ride and I'm pretty good (obviously not as good as him) but the fact that you got offended at what I said is funny!!!
+Chris Becerra I know I'm a fan of his, that's why clicked on the video.
Still one of my favorite videos all these years later...
Yes
he makes it look so damn easy....incredible stuff
i have never seen fixie riding like that. thats pretty damn awesome.
A few hours in and this guy is better than most "pro" fixie riders...lol
Granted this he is a real pro trails/mountain/urban bike rider who's sponsored by Mongoose...so... he has a little bit of practice compared to us regular first time fixie riders... ; )
That's what I commented and some random dude got all offended lol!!
+HellaSavageX i do bmx tricks this isnt really hard
Together We Ride T.W.R. Sure buddy...Sure... :)
i mean i guess you dont know what i do or seen me do it so i dont really trip with that sarcasm im just saying its pretty easy if you know how do tricks on a bmx and apply it to any bike
on a fixie it's more complicated even you know how to do tricks on a BMX, I've tried it 40 years ago, pity go-pro was not existing.
i am a MT biker for life but wow, well done. i hate fixes but this is them being them. well down. thank you.
Amazing, bro! I would like to ride just like you! I salute you!
the fact he did all this without being strapped in is insane
Chris,great vid,takes me back long ago,wish I still had my bikes,anyway put a smile on my face,thanks buddy,take it easy or anyway you can =)
i ride freeride, bmx, street trial (Inspired) unicycle and.... DAMN fix gear are hard to handle and do tricks!!! Awesome video big thumbs up! gotta say, 3:10 that pedal trick to hop on the wall SO SICK AND SMOOTH!!!
2021 still awesome Chris
2023 still cool
by far the best fixie vid I've seen yet. good stuff bro !!
Doing a run down of these clips and this is the best so far. Great stuff
The heat gets turned up at 2:00.. beast! This video made me want to wear skinny jeans, a beanie in the summer, and a ....idk whatever hipsters wear... one things for sure, I’m buying a cheap fixie one day just for the experience.
Great riding, great music!
love the music for this video
The amount of sorrow I feel for his tires is greater than his skills.
+Charlie Johnson yeah how can those tires take that abuse?
This was awesome to watch!
What an enjoyable video...
Thank you for posting this :)
this is so creative, I dig it.
Wow this guy took fixed gear to a whole new level!
great fun great video ! Appreciate a lot
Awesomely enjoyed this!
this is why I want a fixieeeee!!!! ahhh so awesooome!
Awesome , thank you.
Uffff brutal slam on that blue pole at the end 😳
@LukeBass100 this is chris akrigg, one of the best trails riders in the world. He does not need to lie to make himself "seem good"
I bought one of these because of this video. Seriously got suckered in to that. But it's k. The bike is seriously bombproof. Still trashing it today...
that white horse is where i live in westbury that's mental, sick riding too
@pliskin100
a fixed wheed bike can pedal backwards or forwards.. you dont need a brake cos if you want to stop you just pedal backwards
Uk's best trials rider + anything = awesome.
Still so so good.
WOW, that's some savage riding....
1:30 is the circus in bath, about 100 miles west of london, 3:18 Kilburn White Horse 230 miles north of london
To me, I enjoy watching you ride then danny.... awesome !
no straps or clips hes the man!
you learn fast!!
+DangerJoker ! because a pro bmx rider
good riding!!!
awesome bro, nice skill too
Damn, he makes it look so easy..!!
man i miss riding!!!!
Damn. this is pretty good for your first time.
put my ass to shame.
That boy got talent!
looks like the mtb i made for myself in 1981 but i had cycle speedway tyres and cow horns
That looked hard as fook ! Not a clue how difficult that must have been to do ! Going from what is natural (to you ) but having to keep pedalling all the time !
I recognise some of them places (factory's / mills ) i think from way back , is some of this film in Halifax ?
I seem to recall a fix gear craze involving playing volleyball indoors going on before mtbs was invented (might have made that bit up as i cant trust my brain to tell me the truth or if it just told me yeah here's a memory from eons ago filled under memories when it showed ave been in the weird dreams department!!)
Big up the Calderforniea x
i bought a cachet 2 years ago, now im on a detain, put in a lotta work, i thunk its time to go maurice.
the best video in de bike que e bisto
No straps or toeclip wow mann.. sickk
beautiful....
sweet dude! ride that cycle!
always impressive!
@iM2DN looks like a standard 2010 Maurice to me, check the specs on any bike site. New freestyer version for 2011 though ;)
all personal preference basically. if you have a bunch of inclines or crazy roads, you may want a road bike with gearing.
First day on Fixie!!!!!! Wtf ive been trying to do some of those tricks, and it takes me like weeks to figure it out.
nice riding ! :)
WTF!!! i didnt even know you could do any of that shit on a fixed gear bike, amazing!!
ohhh awesome!! Thank you so much!!
Sick video mate.
2:04 was a sick ass trick
@baholaRolls i believe it, he already rides trials
2108 and still stands up!
crazy skill
fixies are the longboards under the skateboards
thx guy's, I thought the ending was good and then it got even better
Such a great voice
holy shit dude, you're a god
perfect track!
amazing
NICE VIDEO
what a nice city :)
Looking back it’s so fucking crazy he finessed all of this WITHOUT STRAPS. Though that bike has a 44/18 gear ratio which is pretty tiny
np and good luck with getting you fgfs
Fair play for riding Westbury white horse, it's steeper than it looks! did I also recognise Frome and Bath in that video?
yeah definitely Frome, some of that is filmed at the college.
You guys can't read. First day on a FIXIE not first day on a bike.
Chris is already a badass on a trials bike.
wow, this guy hops! He really knows how to jump.
amazing...I wonder how would I ride such a bicycle
2:02 is out of world move :)
All these tricks with NO STRAPS!!!
3:16 amazing trick !
wish i could do have that on my MTN bike, he's on a frickin fixie.
Love how a mountain biker shows up and puts fixie riders to shame
pretty cool on this bike :D
how did I get from arron ross to this haha but this was pretty cool not gonna lie!
1:15 Invisible nigga stole my bike!
usually 700c wheels and tyres on a road/fixed bike.
Where can I get superpowers like Chris Akrigg?
This was filmed in kieghly were i live
When Fixie meets a BMX rider :D
+Jacob Williams ohh ya lol
nice vid. my maurice (medium size) doesnt barspin, maybe the bigger frames do or does the one in video have different fork?
Would love to see you guys on your first day on a bike without a freewheel. How did it feel landing your back wheel? Child's play? - good point actually, fixed is a great way to teach kids bike control.
1:57 Smooth
This is awesome! Is this the stock maurice apart from the brakes?
Like a boss.
just proves its about skill not equipment
hero
haha the intro before the main menu!?
bmxin the fixie -nice
Respect
