Why are there 4 dislikes? How can you dislike these videos? I can't ride as often as I'd like and these videos are the closest I get to being there! Thanks for doing what we'd all love to be doing Brian!! Living the dream!
Great trail as allways... :) Congrats on the first 100 miles. I thought it is only me who counts... I got mine in mid june and I allready have 2500 km on it. So far so good. Only replaced tyres, brakepads and chain.
I'm going to be out there (Salida) over Spring Break late this March, and I'm really stoked to ride some of the trails if I have time in between skiing. I'm about ready to start riding again after my winter hiatus in wet, muddy Indiana!
Brian - I've been off the MTB for about 12 years. In that time I've been a serious roadie doing 3000 miles or so per year. But, I recently placed an order for a '17 Scott Spark. I've been watching your vids almost everyday and getting pumped to get back into it. Thanks for the awesome work/riding so far. Keep it up!!
BKXC holy shit I just arrived here in Salida right now and I’m going to ride this bad boy tomorrow! Yeehaw! Hope I can smash those rock gardens as well as you did haha!
Another great video Brian . You seem to handle most of those really rocky sections well. I'm impressed how well you narrate so calmly while riding, very cool and informative. Also I like how quiet your bike seems over bumps. 2 thumbs up from me👍🏻👍🏻
This trails are looking so cool each time. In Germany we don´t have so many nice trails. That makes me sad but it is awesome to watch your videos. Good job :D
Was out there last week with 9 buddies. Definitely a tire eater. 3 of them flatted. I’m running double downs front and back and had no issues. My bike is going on 1900 miles. Don’t understand when dudes buy amazing bikes and don’t ride them. Great video man.
I can't afford a proper mountain bike yet so I've been riding my Walmart bike for the past two months on trails. It's rough but your videos inspire to get out and ride even though my gear is crap. Keep up the good work man.
Wish we had trails like that where where I live in Taiwan. Beautiful hiking trails, but not much for mountain biking. Love your videos, the closest I can get to real riding. Let the vids keep on coming. You're awesome.
Great video as always. Congrats on the 100 miles and many more to come. I've put around 2200 on my trance in the two years I've owned it. Bikes are meant to be ridden, it's sad to see them sitting in a garage with close to no use.
Thats good that you finished this trail with no flats. I am also from Colorado and this is one trail I wanna ride. As soon as I have a all mountain bike. Right now I just have a downhill bike.
Another great video!!! Always stoked to see a new vid from you in my notifications. You know I'm always interested in your Bronson (and the other bikes you ride too). Maybe you could do an in-depth 100 mile review of the Bronson? I'd love to hear your thoughts on things like: 1x12 Eagle , fork, shock, suspension travel, tires & wheels, carbon vs aluminum frame and handlebars, etc., Reverb dropper, dropper vs light weight compliant seat post, and any other opinions you may have for us bike nerds! Thanks buddy, huge fan! I'd so love to just quit my job and go ride the best trails in the world on the best bikes in the world, so jealous lol!!!
Definitely! I absolutely love your channel, please keep up the great work! I've been subscribed since about 4k and look forward to your every upload! I am super excited to see some videos with the DVO suspension and the Knight rims because I'm very curious as to how they will perform! Your bike looks absolutely amazing with those upgrades!
ummmmm, just finished the rumba ridge section, and you ain't exactly going slow!!! well done for the first run dude!!! also, you cleared the waterfall section while site reading the line.... that's badass dude!
Great videos! Keep it up, I am enjoying seeing them all while I wait for my bike I just ordered :-) What camerasetup are you using, I assume you have a gimbal?
Flow show at 03:40 looks like a heck of a lot of fun man! Great commentary and great footage as per usual. How'd the Bronson handle those drops? Looks like it ate them right up eh?
Yeah - not bad at all man! You ever go back and re-ride the trails? After seeing all the flow on offer at all these great locations I'd be so pumped to hit them all over again.
Another great video. Have you given any thought to publishing longer clips...maybe highlights of the climb and then the entire flow back to the bottom. There are tons of us who are always looking for good 60-120 minute videos to watch while on the trainer. Keep up the great work!
I've clipped the NX derailleur on my Bronson a few times. My friend has already broken the X01 on his. I really think it sits too low for for the rocky stuff.
Keep strong! I had total reconstruction of my right shoulder in July of 2015 and was off the mountain bike for just over 6 months. The first ride back was rough, but so much fun. Do ALL of your physical therapy, make sure you're healed and good to go before you get back in the saddle. There's nothing worse than re injuring yourself.
It's refreshing to see someone talk through "the pain" of climbing and get some enjoyment out of it. It makes it easier when I'm out there riding to do the same and truly embrace every obstacle that nature gives us on a ride. Love the videos! they are so different than what anyone else is putting out there. Do you use an external mic or is that mic just the one from the GoPro because it sounds great.
If you come to Australia, you should come ride one of the meanest bike parks in the world in south Australia its called fox creek. There are also about five other bike parks around the same area
I was ducking and jiving in my seat on this ride. Your videos are so good, I think I am going to set up a trainer in front of the big screen TV. Then ride with you, on rainy days. One thing bad about this idea, it doesn't rain in Los Angeles, California to often. Take it easy, keep up the great videos.
Those trails look to have a very similar design and feel to my local. (Aus) Too bad it's magpie swooping season... Always smashing through hell to get away from the aggressive ones... But hey, it's randomized sprint training!
Depends on the bird, it might work for some of the less aggressive ones, although the ones that are well known and notorious for scratching necks, body slamming helmets & biting ears probably not! Those guys truly hate cyclists with a passion. A pro cyclist recommended I try throwing grated cheese at them, he said it works well. Even then where I live it's hard to avoid them, they are bloody everywhere!
Another awesome edit brah ^^ Will be riding similar arid fare this afternoon ;-) I would like to see a vid of the in between stuff i.e. when not rolling the chunder - unpacking bike, snacks, talking to yokels, checking bike/repairs etc. PS - what phone you using?
Hey BK! Another great installment. Not sure how it would help with the sun at such a low angle, but google "GoPro Lens Flare Hood". I use them for my still photography all the time.
I'll probably do a top 5 test rides video near the end of the year. It'll be pretty damn tough to decide. S-Works Enduro, Bronson, Spider have been my favorites so far.
These videos get better and better every time I watch these! Would you recommend to to switch to a 1 by system on a hard tail or keep the sram 2 by system that comes with my bike?
When you out on these adventures do you ever come across wildlife? Id like to see the footage. Ive almost hit deer several times riding here in the Missouri area. Keep up the good work man i watch every upload
2016 to date I've ridden my MTB more than 6,000 km (3,726 miles) and climbed 14,376 m (47,165 ft.). The climbing would be greater but I live at the beach in SoCal. I would estimate more than 80% of my riding is in the dirt. For the first year I owned my Trek Fuel EX8 it never left the pavement. My buddy bought a MTB and got me in the dirt and I've never looked back.
I have only been subscribed for 3 weeks now, but I love your channel. I also have one question: do you recommend the Bronson for a rider who rides outside of the bikeparks,in the wild? Keep it up man!!!
Speaking of Colorado… I’m looking for some trail suggestions for Breckenridge area. I have a trip scheduled for July and any suggestions would be greatly appreciated guys/girls
Wow, 1,500 views in 4 hours. You're ripping it! I did Cottonwood last year and loved it. Never posted up my video of it though. Probably won't now as it would look like crap now as it was before gimbal smoothness. Ha Ha. BTW, Surprised you don't have a bell on your bars. Trails in our area tend to be very busy and hikers like bells.....
I just got a new bell yesterday. It's not your usual bell.... A mix of bear bells and a dinger. It's going to be awesome. I may review it over the weekend.
been watching your work Daily for quite awhile now but had to make a RUclips account so I could give ya a subscriber keep up the great videos, where is your channel based out of ? come to Ontario I'll show ya good workout wish we had mountains
Hey Brian, I know that you don't take requests, but I am looking at buying a pivot switchblade and haven't seen many reviews on the bike. I was wondering if you could do a first look/review on the bike.
I assume you you carry a pump with you, do you raise the pressure of of your tires when you ride on pavement to the trail head and and lower them for the ride. then pump it back up to get back to the car?
Thanks man! One battery usually lasts 45 minutes, then I do a swap. The gimbal batteries usually last 2 hours. The memory card is able to record about 2 hour and I have 2.
Man, there is like one rocky, rough spot on the trail where I ride in Ohio, and somehow I managed to wipe on it and was down for a month. These trails make me clench pretty much the whole time.
Hey love the vids! I currently have a giant xtc se hard tail, had new shimano hydraulics and crank brother pedals, do you think this will be ok for some lightish downhill?
Hey, what tyre combination are you using? I see a minion dh up front, but can't see the rear... Just to know the kind of tires I''ll need for dry conditions like that. Tks
thanks! I didn't thought to check there. I'm curios how do you manage not to fall when suddenly stopping in front of a large boulder. I'm new to clipless pedals and I find it disconcerting at times :)
Why are there 4 dislikes? How can you dislike these videos?
I can't ride as often as I'd like and these videos are the closest I get to being there! Thanks for doing what we'd all love to be doing Brian!! Living the dream!
Thanks so much, Bryce! I'm glad I can get you fired up!
Still love that you start your videos with speed, no commentary and then the trailname + logo appears. Killer!
Hahah thanks man! Glad you dig it
Thanks so much for your mountain biking series...wonderful videos & such a great positive approach. Congratulations on your efforts.
Glad you're enjoying them!
Great trail as allways... :)
Congrats on the first 100 miles. I thought it is only me who counts... I got mine in mid june and I allready have 2500 km on it. So far so good. Only replaced tyres, brakepads and chain.
Nice! Strava helps count those miles!
I just used your video for some “recon” on Cottonwood. Worked great! Awesome trail, really enjoyed it. Thanks for making this video.
Wow! The trails pass through so many diverse environments it is amazing
It's pretty great!
The first part of the trail looked amazing - buff and flowy. Perfect!
It was super smooth and fun!
I'm going to be out there (Salida) over Spring Break late this March, and I'm really stoked to ride some of the trails if I have time in between skiing. I'm about ready to start riding again after my winter hiatus in wet, muddy Indiana!
your videos make you feel like your actually riding. great work Brian 🤘🤘
Awesome man! So glad to hear it.
Brian - I've been off the MTB for about 12 years. In that time I've been a serious roadie doing 3000 miles or so per year. But, I recently placed an order for a '17 Scott Spark. I've been watching your vids almost everyday and getting pumped to get back into it. Thanks for the awesome work/riding so far. Keep it up!!
Hell yes! I love reading these kinds of comments because that's exactly what I'm trying to do: get you guys to go out and ride!
I like it when you stop and show the views. Thanks for that and for the videos!
looks like Colorado is the heaven of MTB'ers... Looking forward to see that Crested butte video, amazing lines and landscapes there. Nice video
It really is!
Love how you always just say, "howdy" to everyone... srly lol when I hear you say that. You're a good guy, so funny!
Haha, glad you enjoy that!
Thanks for the Wednesday morning stoke! Nice work smashing through those rock gardens like there's no tomorrow :)
Thanks Tom! Glad to get your morning started right!
BKXC holy shit I just arrived here in Salida right now and I’m going to ride this bad boy tomorrow! Yeehaw! Hope I can smash those rock gardens as well as you did haha!
Bent the front wheel past repair on my cannondale trail last week. New WTB i32 wheelset come in the mail today. Cant wait to get riding again.
Shredding hard out there! Pretty awesome to get the bike healthy again?
Good old home. Great lakes and fishing too. Not sure where the strava and GPX files are in the description.
Awesome ride once again, and I love it if someone actually gives commentary while riding. Keep up the great videos!
Thanks my man!
BK-XC thank you also!
Another great video Brian . You seem to handle most of those really rocky sections well. I'm impressed how well you narrate so calmly while riding, very cool and informative. Also I like how quiet your bike seems over bumps. 2 thumbs up from me👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks Jon!
This trails are looking so cool each time. In Germany we don´t have so many nice trails. That makes me sad but it is awesome to watch your videos. Good job :D
Thanks man! It's what we call a "double edged sword"
Was out there last week with 9 buddies. Definitely a tire eater. 3 of them flatted. I’m running double downs front and back and had no issues. My bike is going on 1900 miles. Don’t understand when dudes buy amazing bikes and don’t ride them. Great video man.
Your riding has improved greatly!
Thanks Bryan!
Thanks Brian, another inspiring ride, same affect every time, "maybe time for a quick ride during lunch break!
Hahaha, love hearing that!
You and the Bronson are one. Great riding and footage. Cheers!
Hahah, yeah buddy
Sweet footage! Can't wait to get a mountain bike! Looking at a Stumpjumper, not sure between the regular or plus tire size though...
Plus size bikes are pretty damn cool, ride one and you'll dig it!
I'm following your advice, grabbing my bike and going out for a short ride! Nice vid as always.
Good stuff, dude!
I can't afford a proper mountain bike yet so I've been riding my Walmart bike for the past two months on trails. It's rough but your videos inspire to get out and ride even though my gear is crap. Keep up the good work man.
Awesome, as long as you're having fun!
I would definitely hate falling on those rocks. Specially when ur looking at the scenery and ops!!! Anyhow nice work.
Haha exactly!
Nice Trails, it reminds me of the trails around my area, Rocky chunky and Techy, Nice! Nice ride Brotha! Cheers!
Shark tooth chunk!
BK-XC For reals! Lol
Wish we had trails like that where where I live in Taiwan. Beautiful hiking trails, but not much for mountain biking. Love your videos, the closest I can get to real riding. Let the vids keep on coming. You're awesome.
Thanks Carl! So glad I can give you a little taste of the real thing!
Nice ride. Great comment about the bikes sitting in people garages. Not just MTB but expensive road bikes.
Thanks G! Definitely a lot of toys that sit around and gather dust.
Great video as always. Congrats on the 100 miles and many more to come. I've put around 2200 on my trance in the two years I've owned it. Bikes are meant to be ridden, it's sad to see them sitting in a garage with close to no use.
Definitely! I hope my little contribution to the world is to motivate people to give some lonely bikes some more love.
Thats good that you finished this trail with no flats. I am also from Colorado and this is one trail I wanna ride. As soon as I have a all mountain bike. Right now I just have a downhill bike.
Nice! It's a fun one!
What kind of action camera are you using?
See the description section of his video, but here it is:
My video gear: bit.ly/bkxcgear
My GoPro settings: bit.ly/bk-gopro
I was going to say...hope he does monarch crest, but you mentioned you were doing it manana. It is an epic ride, have fun!
Yeah man! Gonna be great
Great video as always! That trail looks similar to the ones we have back at home! Nice!
Thanks Nico!!
That bike looks really smooth👍
Thanks dude!
Man! this makes me so hungry for some cycling.. wish i had hills in my area... only flat sandy trails
Glad I could get you hungry!
Another great video!!! Always stoked to see a new vid from you in my notifications. You know I'm always interested in your Bronson (and the other bikes you ride too). Maybe you could do an in-depth 100 mile review of the Bronson?

Thanks buddy, huge fan! I'd so love to just quit my job and go ride the best trails in the world on the best bikes in the world, so jealous lol!!!
Haha, I did my 100 mile review video! That's about as in depth as I want to go!
If you get the chance, come to southeastern Idaho, tons of trails, city creek in Pocatello and Jackson hole bike park are 2 pretty good options
Yes! I've heard some great stuff!
I've got a Specialized Camber thats going on 10 months old and its done the best part of 2000km (1240 miles) I hate seeing good bikes getting no use!
Nice, glad you got lots of use!
Definitely! I absolutely love your channel, please keep up the great work! I've been subscribed since about 4k and look forward to your every upload! I am super excited to see some videos with the DVO suspension and the Knight rims because I'm very curious as to how they will perform! Your bike looks absolutely amazing with those upgrades!
Come to San Diego and ride the Nobel Canyon Trail. Just ONE of San Diego's epic rides DUDE!!!!!!!
It's DEFINITELY on the list, brother!
My buddy Alexander did this run a littttttle faster than me: ruclips.net/video/RrJRdjxc000/видео.html
Ha! You ain't kidding. he is fast with a capital F.
Holy shit almost looks sped up. Great trail!
To be fair, I've ridden this trail a bunch of times and know it very well now!
ummmmm, just finished the rumba ridge section, and you ain't exactly going slow!!! well done for the first run dude!!! also, you cleared the waterfall section while site reading the line.... that's badass dude!
Quality content, as usual. Looking forward to the colab with Seth!
nice video look like a great trail really looking forward to the monarch crest trail video , it's definitely on the list to do for next year
Thanks Steve! Finally Friday is part 1 of the monarch crest double shuttle day!
awesome!!
If you like the rocky trails, then you should visit Devils Backbone in Fort Collins, Colorado.
Nice!!
Great videos! Keep it up, I am enjoying seeing them all while I wait for my bike I just ordered :-)
What camerasetup are you using, I assume you have a gimbal?
Thanks! Video gear in the description.
Flow show at 03:40 looks like a heck of a lot of fun man! Great commentary and great footage as per usual. How'd the Bronson handle those drops? Looks like it ate them right up eh?
It ate it up! Pretty damn good for riding blind!
Yeah - not bad at all man! You ever go back and re-ride the trails? After seeing all the flow on offer at all these great locations I'd be so pumped to hit them all over again.
Haha, too many new trails to go ride!
Another great video. Have you given any thought to publishing longer clips...maybe highlights of the climb and then the entire flow back to the bottom. There are tons of us who are always looking for good 60-120 minute videos to watch while on the trainer. Keep up the great work!
Go here, donate a little money, and you will get to access longer videos. www.patreon.com/bkxc
I've clipped the NX derailleur on my Bronson a few times. My friend has already broken the
X01 on his. I really think it sits too low for for the rocky stuff.
Yeah, always in the danger zone!
Rocks looked pretty unforgiving, but no flats, not bad. Cool trail.
Thanks man, it was great!
Love your videos! You should have someone record you from behind trailing you. So we can see you go through obstacles
Thanks man! Good idea.
While I can't ride cause of surgery in just gonna watch your vids and get inspired
That's what I love to hear! Get well soon
BK-XC thanks man love the vids keep it up
Keep strong! I had total reconstruction of my right shoulder in July of 2015 and was off the mountain bike for just over 6 months. The first ride back was rough, but so much fun. Do ALL of your physical therapy, make sure you're healed and good to go before you get back in the saddle. There's nothing worse than re injuring yourself.
Devon McManus thanks man that sounds extremely rough hope you enjoy your time back on the bike!
Thanks. So far so good! Hope your recovery goes well.
Oh man. That trail is really cool. I hope that someday I will be able to ride there too. :D
Put it on the bucket list!
I will :D
It's refreshing to see someone talk through "the pain" of climbing and get some enjoyment out of it. It makes it easier when I'm out there riding to do the same and truly embrace every obstacle that nature gives us on a ride. Love the videos! they are so different than what anyone else is putting out there. Do you use an external mic or is that mic just the one from the GoPro because it sounds great.
Thanks so much, man! Just the GoPro mic! Check out my video gear link in the description
If you come to Australia, you should come ride one of the meanest bike parks in the world in south Australia its called fox creek. There are also about five other bike parks around the same area
Wow, nice! I'll look it up!
you should try northstar bikepark next summer. I wanna see some jumps too.
Definitely want to get there!
I was ducking and jiving in my seat on this ride. Your videos are so good, I think I am going to set up a trainer in front of the big screen TV. Then ride with you, on rainy days. One thing bad about this idea, it doesn't rain in Los Angeles, California to often. Take it easy, keep up the great videos.
Such a cool idea! Thanks so much, dude!
Those trails look to have a very similar design and feel to my local. (Aus) Too bad it's magpie swooping season... Always smashing through hell to get away from the aggressive ones... But hey, it's randomized sprint training!
Hahaha I've heard about those damn birds! Supposedly they don't attack if you take off your helmet??
Depends on the bird, it might work for some of the less aggressive ones, although the ones that are well known and notorious for scratching necks, body slamming helmets & biting ears probably not! Those guys truly hate cyclists with a passion.
A pro cyclist recommended I try throwing grated cheese at them, he said it works well. Even then where I live it's hard to avoid them, they are bloody everywhere!
Hahahaha grated cheese!
Keep up the nice work with the vids man!
Out of curiosity how do you mount your camera? Do you use GoPro?
Thanks man! Check out the video gear link in the description
Hi Brian. Brilliant news to see how fast your channel is growing. Have you washed and polished that new Bronson yet to go with those new wheels? Des P
Definitely! If you ever check out Instagram I'm @kennedyish_ got a great shot of the bike from yesterday on there.
Another awesome edit brah ^^ Will be riding similar arid fare this afternoon ;-) I would like to see a vid of the in between stuff i.e. when not rolling the chunder - unpacking bike, snacks, talking to yokels, checking bike/repairs etc.
PS - what phone you using?
Haha yeah I try to leave in anything that's entertaining! iPhone 6s
Hey BK! Another great installment. Not sure how it would help with the sun at such a low angle, but google "GoPro Lens Flare Hood". I use them for my still photography all the time.
Nice! I'll check it out
Now I'm yearning for Colorado!
Me too!
Nice ride and video! This interesting effect when it looks like your camera is a bit late following you on tight turns is because of gimbal?
it is definitely from the gimbal. I have one and it does the same thing.
looks like a fun ride!
now that you have almost 100 miles on the bike what are your top 3 favorite bikes you've ridden so far?
I'll probably do a top 5 test rides video near the end of the year. It'll be pretty damn tough to decide. S-Works Enduro, Bronson, Spider have been my favorites so far.
Great video idea! You should do a top 5 trail video also.
These videos get better and better every time I watch these!
Would you recommend to to switch to a 1 by system on a hard tail or keep the sram 2 by system that comes with my bike?
Thanks so much, dude! No need to change your gearing if the bike is working for you, save your money.
One day I will get out and hit the trails you do but for now I need to focus on my skills and save up for a bike that can handle it
That's a damn good plan!
When you out on these adventures do you ever come across wildlife? Id like to see the footage. Ive almost hit deer several times riding here in the Missouri area. Keep up the good work man i watch every upload
In one of my early videos in Whistler a bear crossed in front of me on the trail! Other than that not much.
Did you ride North Backbone on the way up to Cottonwood? Though not a downhill, it's still quite a sweet trail.
I did not! I saw the MTBProject route directs people that way, though.
Are you missed out on a good ride.
Nice ride! Any tips for improving climbing ability/capacity over time?
Thanks Robert! Eat more, sleep more, ride more. Just gotta put int the time and you'll get better.
2016 to date I've ridden my MTB more than 6,000 km (3,726 miles) and climbed 14,376 m (47,165 ft.). The climbing would be greater but I live at the beach in SoCal. I would estimate more than 80% of my riding is in the dirt. For the first year I owned my Trek Fuel EX8 it never left the pavement. My buddy bought a MTB and got me in the dirt and I've never looked back.
Now that's what I'm talking about! Love it.
I have only been subscribed for 3 weeks now, but I love your channel. I also have one question: do you recommend the Bronson for a rider who rides outside of the bikeparks,in the wild? Keep it up man!!!
Thanks so much! I don't ride in bike parks, only in the wild, so yep, I recommend it.
Thank you for your reply!! I was already looking to buy the bronson, so I think I will make a testride this weekend ;)
Speaking of Colorado… I’m looking for some trail suggestions for Breckenridge area. I have a trip scheduled for July and any suggestions would be greatly appreciated guys/girls
Wow, 1,500 views in 4 hours. You're ripping it! I did Cottonwood last year and loved it. Never posted up my video of it though. Probably won't now as it would look like crap now as it was before gimbal smoothness. Ha Ha. BTW, Surprised you don't have a bell on your bars. Trails in our area tend to be very busy and hikers like bells.....
Hahah you can't go back after the magic of the gimbal! I'll get a bell eventually. I hate yelling at hikers, it never comes out right.
I just got a new bell yesterday. It's not your usual bell.... A mix of bear bells and a dinger. It's going to be awesome. I may review it over the weekend.
i think you're ready to get back to salida and check out uncle nazty trail, its so amazing
been watching your work Daily for quite awhile now but had to make a RUclips account so I could give ya a subscriber keep up the great videos, where is your channel based out of ? come to Ontario I'll show ya good workout wish we had mountains
Thanks so much Tyson, that's pretty cool! I'm in Vallejo, California!
Hey Brian, I know that you don't take requests, but I am looking at buying a pivot switchblade and haven't seen many reviews on the bike. I was wondering if you could do a first look/review on the bike.
I really want to ride one too! Hopefully I'll run into one soon.
I assume you you carry a pump with you, do you raise the pressure of of your tires when you ride on pavement to the trail head and and lower them for the ride. then pump it back up to get back to the car?
I keep the pressure the same all the way through.
We have a trail at the legendary Burg Frankenstein in Germany 😉
Nice!
Cool video Brian. Do you know the reason why your camera seems to be a
bit slow on turns? Is it your gimbal which can't turn the camera fast
enough?
Yep, it's the gimbal, always a step behind. I have a newer one I need to test it out before I can put it into use.
Okay, I think a fast one would up the viewing pleasure. We could see what's ahead of you after a turn. Hope to see it soon in your videos. :)
great videos nd channel mate, how long do you spend on editing your vids. there sick
Thanks dude! I probably spend about 5 hours editing each video.
Brian, using the settings on your GoPro how long can you record it? A ride of 2 hours... Do you record everything?
Btw great video!
Thanks man! One battery usually lasts 45 minutes, then I do a swap. The gimbal batteries usually last 2 hours. The memory card is able to record about 2 hour and I have 2.
when can we expect video and a review on new wheelset and susspension?
I think it'll be a while, gotta get some miles!
Man, there is like one rocky, rough spot on the trail where I ride in Ohio, and somehow I managed to wipe on it and was down for a month. These trails make me clench pretty much the whole time.
Brutal, dude!
Hey love the vids! I currently have a giant xtc se hard tail, had new shimano hydraulics and crank brother pedals, do you think this will be ok for some lightish downhill?
Thanks man! I really can't say, I only ride higher end full suspension stuff. Sorry dude!
Hehe its fine, Hopefully going out to ride tomorrow so we will see ;D
@BKXC where are your local trails at? I will be in fruita soon and if you are around that are would love to get a ride in with ya :D
Vallejo, CA
as always, very good video!
Thanks Harry, I appreciate it!
nice video
Good stuff!
The MTB i like and accidently saw on the web is BYOK Thunder 27.5"
i would like to ask how often you train to keep up that for? When i watch the video i get tired lol :p
+LaLa 1998 that form*
Hey, what tyre combination are you using? I see a minion dh up front, but can't see the rear... Just to know the kind of tires I''ll need for dry conditions like that.
Tks
DHF front and DHR rear. Feels good so far.
BK-XC you should ride a Yeti again
Good call!
When are the new tee shirts coming out, Brian?
Stay tuned, be on the lookout for a video!
If you had the choice where would you rather live? Colorado Springs, CO or Tacoma, WA
Hahaha, never been to either!
Lol well I mean as far as riding is considered... You've been on trails in both areas haven't you?
What site and how much did You pay for your gimbal ? Nice vlog
Check out my video gear link in the description
Thanks will do 👍
just out of curiosity what tyres did you have on?
Maxxis minion dhrII / dhf
Nice ride. I'm curious, what kind of pedals are you using?
Link in the description!
thanks! I didn't thought to check there. I'm curios how do you manage not to fall when suddenly stopping in front of a large boulder. I'm new to clipless pedals and I find it disconcerting at times :)
Lots of practice! I used to fall all the time when I was starting out.
Love the video! Can you do a bike check?
Thanks man! I may do one eventually!
Ive done 1350 km on my reign in 8 months don't know how many miles that is but....
Sounds like a nice amount of riding to me!
was this on your full suspension btw love the vids!
nevermind i found out
Yep, on my Bronson!
Do you prefer shimano or SRAM gears and brakes? Great vid!!!
Hey Jake
I think they're both equally as good. SRAM just happened to come on my bike.
BK-XC Ok thanks
Glad you have your thumbs in the right place now hahaha
Hahaha, it's been a WHILE!
+BK-XC I only just noticed. I would like to see you try some of the national/worlds downhill tracks. I think that would make for an interesting video
Great video
Thanks Zachary!
