Oh my lord, what a beautiful and refreshing sight to see. Madeira has such a chill environment. Amazing skills and the new Scott is looking FOGO! Aproveita ae em Portugal!
I recently climbed 6000ish to the top of Clingman's Dome in TN/NC. Felt like you on the way down just gliding through curves. Your channel is inspiring!
It is inevitable if you are a heavy rider. You bend the front wheel and steering while applying force. The space between the disc and the jaws is just to small + you have friction deformation.
I've seen you do some crazy shit, but bombing this hill with cows just chilling on the edges of the road waiting to step out in front of you is just madman tings
These bikes are awesome. The scene breath taking. The sound reminds me a little of the drag on some fishing reels. When a kingfish grabs it. Lol. Beautiful video 💯
This is insane. I went to Madeira last October and I would not dare to take my bike on open roads, especially when there's cars involved too. People drive their cars down and uphill like crazy....didn't see anybody on a road bike in 10 days on the island. Amazing place though! And breathtaking video. 🔥🔥
i think its just crazy how the fine pawls inside a freehub can work for several years after riding stuff like this just crazy how durable some materials are
Nice to see you in my country, hope u enjoy this beautiful place. You should try poncha and other tradicional foods, in Portugal we love eating and sharing it. Cheers!
@@12Burton24 speed under control means being able to slow down when you want, not just within law requirements. Brian is able to do that, just doesn't want to.
@@Kaiweeks Slowing down when you want you can do with 300km/h the question is can you stop within a distance. and this person is clearly unable to stop in any case of closer incoming traffic. Beside that local speed limits count for every vehicle also riders. You should stop thinking you cab ride like the pros on close secured streets.
10:19 its so awesome when drivers know that a cyclists will be faster on the descent so avoid overtaking on the crest. Annoyingly in the uk it almost never happens
Ohhh man! Don’t you even think for a second that anyone here understands that or gives a fuck, ha was just lucky. That near miss with the lady - the one that kept backing up despite seeing him - is more representative of the current social mentality around (although I must say he was ballsy/irresponsible doing what he did, I would never in a million years try to pull that move). In this society the majority is still stuck with the motto: bikes are inferior, cars reign the road, you should ride on the sidewalk.
Pretty stupid from him not to stop because the car was on the road before the rider was visible means you are not able to make the driver of the car responsible if you crash the car because your right of way is gone if you would be able to brake down and someone is on the street way before they can see you.
@@12Burton24 You can't cut off "an entire" street because you feel like it. She was not doing any tricks, simply interrupting the free movement of the rest of the people. Cutting, going under the minimum, etc. are faults.
@@Elmaryan @Elmaryan 60 in a village is also not allowed. Stop means all your wheels have to stop not 17km/h. The car is not cutting the car is turning and when the car started the cyclist was not visible you are forced by law to stop and let the car do the turning. You dont gain a right of way over the other person.
Nice to see that even when your bombing hills you take the safe line. reassuring for us mortals bombing descents that it’s more important to be safe than fast and dead
I´ve been on vacation also in there, big fan of your videos. If I knew you were there... good riding, bring more videos of madeira if you are still in there!!
@@wasupwitdat1mofiki94 it seems suicidal because you don't know what it's like to have the skill he does. This stuff is nothing compared to how he used to ride as a messenger. Don't assume that he's simply taking more risks. As far as setting an example goes, there are far, far, far worse role models than safa on youtube.
@@404nobrakes I got more skill than Safa has in my back pocket. Been racing road bikes and mountainbikes for more years than most people like Safa have even owned bikes. I don't race anymore but I've got experience Mister. If Safa had the balls he would go to Moab, Utah and ride some death defying downhills there. I've done it.
Yet another Safa special. Perhaps its a combination of Aero bike/wheels/tires, lower tuck position, smooth roads and warmer air, but it seems for the grade you are descending, your avg speeds are higher by a few kph. Curious to know your thoughts.
The bike is definitely faster and the wheels must be helping too. I really like the flat back position this bike puts me in. The 54/40 keeps me hammering the pedals on the flatter stuff too which I've really been enjoying.
Me encanta estos tipos de videos, yo si tuviese la oportunidad, haría ese recorrido pero en una MTB solo para disfrutar la ruta, jajajaj equipada para tal fin
Smooth new black pavement, even patching looks very smooth. Must not be in the USA! All these mini bump in the curve must make the ride so fun! load and unload
Friend, sometimes you take a lot of risks. This downhill somehow reminded me of motorcycle racing on the Isle of Man, only there on the track all the corners, walls, fences, they try to protect at least with compressed hay, well, or other means, and everything is adult for you. Respect you!
Hey man! Welcome to Madeira! Been a fan for a while, so it's great so see you riding here. Hope you enjoy our island.
It was incredible!

Cheers!
Thank you. Well received and I had a great time exploring a magical place!
Serious descent. The disc brake and freewheel sound is amazing. The whole island can hear you coming for sure. Bonus safety feature.
The sound is music to my ears

Madeira has some great views, but, the Azores Islands are even more beautifull, a island on the coast of africa and similar to Hawaii

Thank you for coming to our country! Great descending, as always!
@pedrosgarden can yourecommend a good road bike hire place in Funchal . coming to your island in 2 weeks! any must-do rides? thank you

I heard it rub many more times.
I’ve been going to Madeira for 10 years every year and last year cycled for the first time. That video was so awesome!
Very happy to see you in Portugal, my beautiful country. I hope you enjoyed!
the sound of hubs is like a therapy to the ears

Fantastic! Thanks for sharing this experience with us
The greatest thing riding a road bike is overtaking cars. I just love it!!!!
It's fun to see you go down in European landscapes, with European cars..
The landscape is crazy just the style remains.
Happy Holidays!
Amazing video. A great ride through a beautiful landscape.
OMG that drivetrain sound is so satisfying
Great vid! Had the opportunity to visit Madeira but without my bike 🙂 Such an amazing place!
The under-the-bar angle is killer.
Looks so familiar🕊🤙🏾
Yes that’s Praia da Calheta. Awesome ride SAFA and hope you get to ride down the windy roads towards Porto Moniz!!
I did film the hairpins into Porto Moniz 😊
Welcome to Portugal !!!!
what a marvelous place
You should continue this series of visiting countries and riding on their best roads, Safa.
yup would love to see this guy rides in switzerland/France and italia !
Yes!!
That breaking sound is really awesome!

The sound of that hub😍
So good Brian. Thank you dude. With hello.
scott is so amazing~love it~
Hey rafa you have to go to serra da estrela, there are some awesome descents either way from the torre, down towards covilhã or Manteigas
i'd like to see safa join one of the teams for the volta and have to race up.....
@@carlosgaspar8447 the man is good but, even at a low level, Volta a Portugal prós are still miles ahead of him, tbf

Stellar Descent! It would seem the disc rubbing has not been solved. lol.
Yeah more clearance etc doesn't solve a flawed concept
The graphics of this game is crazy!!
That was an exhilarating ride with beautiful scenery 😀. The PWR figure shown on screen, is that measured in watts at the crank?
That good ol' disc rub noise 😄
Damn that's an insanely long descent, must have fought a lot on the climb

what a beautiful place! some of those corners were scary.
I recognised the sound of the hubs immediately!! Great vid. Some great mb and gravel trails on the island too.
amazing road, top bike and top handling skills those videos get amazing everytime
What a run ! Wow !
What a ride... Well done...
Courage man and brave heart! Fast than the cars! I was scared watching how you manage a bike at the corners and the turns.

Loved it, have descend on those roads but not at those speeds. Kudos.
beautiful roads, top rider on the best bike :D
FANTASTIC!!! 😉👍
I just sent this to my mom whom loves Portugal and Madeira with the headline: See Madeira from a different angle
I think she got car sick.

Man new bike always sounds so good. Have fun!

I hope I could ride this beautiful route in one day.
I love the way you remind all those drivers how slow their cars really are
beautiful place
What a beautiful place to ride! Please take it easy, maybe slow down just a bit, I don't want to hear about you getting hurt.
This is a man who has already had broken bones and continues to ride like this, don't think he will change :)

Madeira... SIUUUUUUUUUUUUU
Awesome descent, love the new scenery. Going there in August. Where did you end up staying.
You should have road through anjos waterfall. Cascades right down on main road.
Quite a lot of turns but still looks like a fun descend.
The turns make it fun!
"such a loud coast" I thought, then I realized you were going 30-40 mph so it all makes sense.
