BEHOLD The BOOSTMONSTER! - World’s Greatest DH Bike!? With 300mm of travel!
Спорт
The Boostmonster is running better than ever! I have been upgrading this bike for the past few months and test riding it to make sure it shreds super hard! In this video I am showing you what we all did to this bike and how well it rides now!
The Boostmonster is made from a 2005 Norco A-line Frame, a 2003 Marzocchi Supermonster fork
This bike is very unique and epic, I can't wait to bring this to places like whistler and the North shore in the near future :)

Jo, stoked to see some progress on your super monster build. Did I get you right? You miss support in your damper plattform? Why you didn't just pump it up? Is the Revox not similar to the Swinger? And the Swinger just a 5th Elementh? Don't they both have a shrader valve for the plattform function? Because my Progression Suspension 5th Element is so easy to ramp up. I Just pump the ifp up. The compression helps so I don't need that much springrate.

Mate this is so cool, I cant put into words how much I'm enjoying this series! Thank you so much for making it. I love this era of bikes and the type of riding they were built for and to see a highly skilled rider actually taking them seriously, doing proper analysis and combining new and old parts to make the ultimate big travel bike and then using it on the super gnarly terrain they are meant for is just magnificent to watch. Cant wait to see you put it back to back against the 8inch travel bike, it's going to be really interesting to see the difference and hear your thoughts especially since they both have modern tires and brakes.

Sick build, Jordan! Sending healing vibes to Wesley! Hope to recovers 100% and can send just as hard again
man oh man, you just won a brazilian subscriber with this bike dude. found out about your build a few days ago and i've been waiting for a new update with this. can't wait to see you shred some sick trails with this. brings back so much nostalgia with the old parts and stuff, awesome work man congrats
Nice, hope recovery is swift. I'm not young or a advanced rider and too afraid to jump even yet and it's nice to see others pushing the boundaries regardless of the danger. But stay safe, these injuries we suffer when young come back to haunt us in our later years.
300mm for 300k!! Let's GOOO! YEAH BOOSTY!!! 😃👊🤘
So sick Jordan! You've done so well persevering in this amazing build! Hope Wes is feeling better soon.
Hell yes! BOOSTMONSTER keepin' the 26 alive!!!
I hope Bender sees this
I have waited this for MONTHS!
You should come back out to the island and ride mount Prevost on that beast
i have been waiting for this ALL DAY YOU HAVE NO IDEA
This video is going to be so sick, thanks jordan! Keep making stuff like this and you'll get way bigger. This video was super cool. I hope we get to see more of the Boostmonster in upcoming videos.
Ok so having watched this video through to the end: best video you've ever done. The camerawork is next level... great action shots of the suspension soaking up the abuse. And you yelling "what the heck" as you blew down the trail 😎 Keep it up man, that bike is amazeballs!

Please keep making videos like this. 50yr old man here dreaming of the good ole days of NS and Kranked and other vids from the good days. I have a Mountain Cycle Shockwave (NEW) frame that keeps calling me to build.
Insane bike! I really liked the third-person cinematics near the end of the video since it truly gave a sense of steepness which the goPro typically lacks. Excited to see more updates on that rear shock!
300k! It’s about time 🤩
Been waiting for this vid for like... Half the year. What a great Friday. Looks so sick!
This project build is perfect for what legendary freerider Josh Bender would have wanted for his 50ft plus cliff jumps.
You mentioned the rear shock still being too soft still but you rear spring looks to be just tight enough for it not to slap around. You should turn the spring screw in/tight the spring. Making the spring shorter which in turn making it need more force to compress the shock. Not needing to get a heavier spung shock. Hope you try this and find the rear "stiffer".
And to think we used to ride these gnarly trails on rigids back in the day. Would be like riding a Cadillac in comparison. Very cool build.
Love this series. I want this bike
That frame was definitely the right one to pair with the monsters. I’m so glad you took it seriously and built one of the sickest older downhill bikes I’ve ever seen. Dreamy
300k!!!!!!!!!
Aah I'm gonna be at school when it premieres
Im so impressed with you and the bike! Keep up the awesome work you do!
Christ, Wesley took that hard! Healing vibes his way!. Look forward to see the progression with this! Looks bonkers!
The production quality of your videos has increased so much! Bike looks sick too
Hey, I’m really enjoying the trip down memory lane and watching you build a bike with parts I used to dream of in MTB action back in high school! Just a thought, I don’t think you’re ever going to get the most from that fork on an old frame, the short reach and high stack height are just made worse by adding 100mm of extra travel in the front. Have you thought of trying the fork on a modern (ish) dh bike with longer reach and lower bb? Bikes like the Aurum’s come up all the time for not too much cash and I think if you build a more stable platform, you’ll really maximize what that super monster can do. Then you will really have the ultimate DH bike! Keep making the videos, it’s great to follow along!
I like that you portay the kind of channel that screams: old stuff is cool 😂
All the best to Wes, hope for a quick and good recovery. Major injury at the beginning of bike season sucks.
I'd be interested in the comparisson between the Boostmonster and a rather plush modern dh bike (for example the Commencal Supreme or the Santa Cruz V10) because they are both good at charging through rough stuff

I’m getting sick of the modern MTB industry, it’s like golf. I wish it was more like the motocross industry (or BMX) where you can ride a relatively old bike and not have many issues. I have had so many issues trying to find 26” tires for my M9 that I’ve actually thought about selling it and getting another bike because of that. I kinda hate MTB, I love riding, I hate the majority of the industry and the loudest members of our community.

@@MarvinWestmaas Yup, I pretty much hate pink bike in general lol, they can never seem to do stuff properly. especially with those mini series that they make. I saw a kid at a race last year riding a 10k pivot firebird and he wasn't even that good at riding, not saying that you can't have nice stuff but he would be just as fast on a cheap 1000$ old DH bike. Heck, I went riding on my bmx last week and decided to ride a black diamond tech trail on it, I had a smile on my face the entire time. And I hate all the people who say that "(enter racer here) won't win because they are riding a different tire and frame maker that I don't personally like", we seem to have lost the "it's about the rider" part of the sport. Didn't notice a single difference in speed when I went on a demo on a single pivot mullet bike, so I laugh when people blame the bike they have for being slow.

@@Gehajjs62727 Yeah, I agree, MTB is all about the ride and having fun! I've been riding a 12 year old Lapierre for the last two years, and that bike's handling made me a far better rider. Just upgraded to something more modern as 26" tyres and suspension spares were becoming hard to find. Now on 29" and it feels like easy mode - had a smile all the way down a black at how the new bike just cruised. Maybe it was just not being worn out, but getting a new bike every decade or so seems like a good investment to me. Pinkbike has an interest in promoting new bikes so I tend to just ignore that content since it's basically just advertising.

@@Gehajjs62727 Depending on the trail, I would be scared af to run out of brakes on a bmx lol but if you're sure it can handle it I can imagine it being pure fun. Bit like 'trails' riding instead of trail riding :) Bike handling skills would go through the roof if you're regularly riding yank stuff with 20 inch wheels I bet. Haven't touched a bmx bike myself after spending a couple of days in a hospital after getting a few ribs and my sternum bruised pretty badly. But yeah, thing is it should be all about having fun but I bet there will be more and more people seeing you on that BMX and thinking you're out of place instead of admiring your drive to ride whatever you want wherever you want ( as long as it's within your skill level ).
Ehhh! Jordan Boostmaster bring back the best 26" wheel bikes to the market! He knows 26' is too nostalgic and amazing to give up.
First off k wanna apologize for not watching your content lately. Been so busy tryna drop my own. Dope build bro. Glad to see your doing good still. I’ll always remember watching your videos while I was in BC for my child’s heart surgery. Thanks man
My childhood dream ;) To have one of these SM and be like Bender ;) I admire the professionalism with which you have approached this build. It came out super sick. I'd love to see it shred some big air.
Pls respond I love your vids I have watch your for 4 years
Lol… watching KZread because my left wrist is broken… welcome to the club, healing vibes to that guy. I love this monster bike ˆˆ
Incredible build man what a piece of DH history you've made here!
Sick build!! Add more highspeed compression if possible, perhaps change the shimstack to fit the linkage better. A 300mm travel bike must be like riding on clouds 😅😅
I would go for a custom frame to really make it modern and awesome. You learned a lot in your testing sessions.
Gotta remember this frame was built for a-line and that style of trail for the day, was never a snappy bike, they made other frames for tight and twisty stuff. Great to see this bike up and running, and hope Wesley heals up quick.
We all love the build ! Keep it coming ! So cool man !
We wait
Boost Monster engaged! This is so cool to see this build come together. Such a great project, JB! Looking forward to see you push the limits with it.
editing on this one was rad, This Bike is taking you to the MOOON!
Beautiful trails and ridin! That last trail looks soo much fun even as rough as it is. Love it!
That was really fun to watch! I love these older bikes. Very cool man!
Love this old school build,Jordan! Sick! Hope Wesley recovers well!

Hey Jordan, can I just say I watch all your videos and think they are great, just watched your newest video about the boostmonster and whot a great video 👍. You have done a great job building up the boostmonster and it looks amazing, very interesting video as I have a retro downhill mountain bike a specialised big hit 1 and given me some ideas. Keep up the great work simon
Soo fu***** sick man!!! I got goosebumps watching you riding this gnarly dh track I'm so invested in this Marzocchi project.. Maybe because I still bomb my old Bomber Z2 😁
Jordan, this is 1 beautiful build of a bike. I love it. Also I love you doing what you want to do, not like the mainstream mtb youtubers. You have a unique mtb channel. Keep it up bro.
I played the frozen wrist whine over and over again. Just poetry. Life is good!
Thanks for all the testing it's quite instructive !!
you built an awesome bike my friend! great job! 👍👍👍
Yes! Really dig how technical you got about setting this bike up. Great video bro!
This is such a sick build man! I've always loved the early 2000s A-Line, they are are super cool looking bikes.

I don’t understand how these guys get any training done between injuries. I don’t ride MTB, I only have overuse injuries and it’s still bad enough.
I didn't expect to watch the whole video yet I enjoyed every second of it. I ride an '05 six (original owner!) and it's funny to see the similarities with the boostmonster. some of the frame parts are the same along with the measurements.
Been waiting for this to pop up on my feed for three months
Love this bike dude. Thanks for going in depth, really was very interesting.
It’s so cool to see a regular person innovating more than all the big companies
Years ago, I had the opportunity to ride a 300mm custom mountain bike on some of the worst boulder fields on Porcupine Rim in Moab. Honestly, it was disappointing how slow it felt . . . Until I realized I was actually pulling WAY ahead of the group I was with! It made fast FEEL slow and comfortable. I wish such a bike were actually available for purchase! I haven't stopped wishing for one ever since!
Looking foward!
Very nice idea. I will use this bike on my next skydiving trip as a replacement for a parachute.
Amazing video and bike, I was waiting for that steeper gnar at the end! 👏 Maybe that new shock has a heavier spring? I wondered if Cane Creek's Valt springs would help, but I don't think they are long enough? 🤔 Have fun!
Sick project! Please, more content on that monster! Would love to give it a spin!
Love it man! 26”r for life!
300mm of pure awesomeness! I can already imagine you having a blast on rock gardens
I suppose getting used to hitting gaps on a pogo stick will take some getting used to! This is an incredible build though man and cant wait to see you put it through it's paces!

It was a different feeling, the older bikes had smaller wheels with narrow bars - you could really feel being “up on top” ... and remember no dropper posts.
Bro you should really talk to Craig at Avalanche Suspension, not only is he a legendary suspension genius, but Avalanche makes several coil shocks that fit both those 8”and 9” shock positions. Every shock he sells will be custom valved for you after he talks to you and gets an idea how you want it to ride, the terrain you ride, and built to match your frames leverage ratio. I have known about avalanche for over 20 years and I’ve heard nothing but amazing things from anyone whos ridden their products or had their fork/shock modified by Craig, everyone says it’s a night and day difference and they ride better than any other fork/shock on the market. Not only do they make several shocks of their own that fit for your frame and can be as progressive as you want, but he also makes a speed sensitive damper mod for fox vanilla and manitou revox shocks to get it feeling the way you want it too. I’m sure he could tell you what to do to get the super monster feeling the way you want it to too! Seriously, I think this is the answer to your suspension problems bro! And they sell coil springs too. I know I sound like a hype man for this company but I’m not lol. Check it out! www.avalanchedownhillracing.com Edit: I messaged you on IG about this too
