CRAZY MTB HANDLEBAR CUTTING CHALLENGE - HOW NARROW CAN THEY GO?
Спорт
Crazy MTB handlebar cutting challenge - How narrow can they go? After each trick, jump or urban freeride line I have to cut my dirt jump bike handlebars down by 1 inch until I can't ride anymore, how long can I keep the craziness going?
This Boxing day special is sure to get you stoked to continue sitting on the sofa because I have a ridiculous video for you today with the crazy MTB handlebar cutting challenge and the rules are simple. After each tricks, freeride line or jump I do I have to cut my handlebars down by 1 inch until the point where I just can't ride anymore but how long will this go on for? To get the game started I get out my MTB hopper portable kicker ramp and do some tricks with my ever narrowing bars. From here we move to the local skatepark to get more technical before moving onto the huge stair set of doom and all the other treats the university has on offer! This video is filled with urban MTB freeride lines and stupidity and is all taken place on my custom Haibike dirt jump bike!! Do you have any crazy ideas? Then let me know :)
I hope you enjoy the video!

Ah I see what you did there 😂
My brain after the 5th or so cut: „Damn, that‘s still wider than we had in the early 90s and no brakes is also not far off“. 😂 What about a 90s challenge. With how many sets of barends can you still ride?

That's what I was thinking. Late 80's early 90's is was about how narrow you could run now it's how wide you can possibly get.

Sam: Nearly dies going off a curb with tiny bars. Also Sam: Immediately sends it down a Stairset of Doom with those same bars.
Crack a Mony is always hilarious. Can't believe you are shredding with fixie style bars from '08, and then riding bar-less around a pump track! More brakeless would be cool to see, after doing it for a few years I have great respect for it, as well as knowing how good and free it feels to ride that way, especially doing manuals(as long as you stay away from large hills!), shoe's don't last though. Always a good day when the two best comedy riders post; no substitutes for Sam Pilgrim and Ronnie Mac.

Ahhhh! I kept wincing at the start of every trick, expecting those tiny bars to slam into your ribs on landing. Great job, again, of not dying!

Using the wrong disc lol
You should do a video called "How much can you shred on a bikepacking trip" You load up you ebike (or perhaps a Haibike touring ebike) with all kinds of bags and then see how much you can shred along the way. Im shure Haibike is keen on the idea since they just sponsored a bikepacking video on GCN. You could get some fun footage jumping around on a fully loaded bike. Stairways of doom in slomo speaks for itself.

Had me in stitches Sam. Good effort filming and posting today as well. Good laugh on Boxing Day. Quality riding as well 👍
9:30 has me cracking up. "They love it so much" he says, as the security guard watches him pull out a grinder.
Pissed myself all the way through this. You can ride better than the majority of us with cut down bars. Amazing. Hilarious as always, good work.
And there's most of us lesser biking mortals still struggle with 740mm- 780mm bar's 🤣🤣. Funny n very Sam scientific approach 👍
this was just incredible sam, fair play dude 100% respect
Love the santa skit hahah keep up the great work
Always bring a smile to our faces. Cheers.
You're doing flips and bar spins with almost no bars and I'm over here barely clearing small dirt jumps. 🤘
Welcome to 90s bar lengths
I keep laughing out loud every time I see those tiny little handlebars! You're the boss!
3:13 Hahah the two old mates walking the dog, seeing a backflip made me laugh.
Back in the 90's, it was a thing to have narrow bars with horns.....supposedly it was easier to go through trees. lol. That fad didn't last long, though... as there was little control, and the horns would actually catch trees and wipe you out.

I love your videos Sam. Oh and nice joke, "when you said lets cut it down another inch, this should be inch-resting" 😂😂
How can you be this funny man it's incredible, I laughed from beginning to end 😂👍
Empiric knowledge by the word. Some people think they are under biked, with all the restrictions ut implies, some other over biked think that their bikes allow them so much more room for progress than they actually can. And then there is Sam, always putting things into perspective, with his humour and going the absurd way. Not only the pure skill of the rider but also the level of fun can indeed trigger some magical moments. Thank you Sam for reminding us about that, practice and fun. To the skyyyyyyyyyyyyyy, and uuuuuuuuup SAM !!
I say next vid Sam should get a huge seat post and raise the seat up every trick until the maximum height, it gets scary fast

It's cool, Santa sounds German. 👍😉 Also, the "bull-horn" spin @ 10:26/17:04 is pretty crazy! 💪🤙😂 Merry Crimbo from Canada Pilgrim boys! A day late and a dollar short. 🥸
That's such a waste, Sam, kids in Africa could have eaten those handlebars :/
Always entertaining. Always good vibes. Ride on, dude.
Merry Christmas Sam, you absolutely made my day!!!
Let‘s do this as a „game of bike“, so every looser have to cut his bar
I love watching your videos. You put a smile on my face every time.
thank you sam for always givin us the best day !
Always thought about this cheers Sam. All best for 22 dude.
Those Monster breaks always put a smile on my face.
This is how we used to roll back in the 90's. Upsets me when I think back on how many mid school BMX bars I ruined back in the day
So entertaining! Looking forward to what you get up to in 2022.
Merry Christmas to you dudes, thank you for keeping 2021 stellar.
