All your questions, answered: The guy who was with us is Adam, a cinematographer. See his video when it’s done by subscribing to Diamondback’s KZread channel. The little button thingie on my handlebars is for the dropper post, which I borrowed from Eric since I was having issues with mine. The guy who crashed on the bobsled track didn’t die as far as they know. He was gone when they found the wreckage. The tires from Kenda were “Tubeless Race”, which are super duper light and designed for XC-not launching into rocks at 30mph. I’m trying out some heavier ones.

"On a hardtail, you don't call the shots - the trail does." And this is why I love hardtails. If you gotta adapt to the trail instead of rolling over all the points, small rocks, crevasses and roots, every single course has its own different way of riding down it. The variety you get is just amazing, and the slightest difference in line picks in two descents down the same trail makes for two completely different rides. It's also why I'm a diehard fan of 26ers.

I ride hardtail for about the last ten years and I second your thoughts. Let me add a thing: Just a few days ago I finally dumped my old fork and replaced it with a rigid front fork for the time being. I was tempted to try it out (again, like returning to the time when I was a kid and all bikes were fully rigid) and it also gives me time to think about a further replacement. Such fun! If you speak about how the hardtail can teach you a lot about choosing a line... well, the rigid front is even one step further, perhaps a top-level-schooling in that sense. And Oh How Light the front of the bike is! (Like shedding about 3 pounds of weight on the front from one day to another). So easy to move the front wheel around, lift it over the bumps and so on. :) Couldn't claim the rigid setup is better, of course, but very different and very entertaining to be sure. (Talking about mostly XC riding).

TheBirchCreek Yep, I remember riding hardnoses. Not a fan, though, spent too much time picking lines that didn't rattle my hands off the bars and even with the tyres on real high PSI I got pinches when hitting stuff (I was and still am a chunky fella, quite a bit over 200lb). Plus I tend to put so much power when taking off, thanks to the lightened front I end up pulling an unprepared wheelie every single time 😂 HT for me is the sweet spot for quality of life's worth.

"Amateur hour is over...I just checked my watch." I am absolutely going to steal that. Great video, and you just chronicled what SO MANY tourists run into on our trails here in Arkansas. I can just LOOK at a group of riders at the trailhead and predict the number of flats by their tires.

Man I wish I had friends like you guys. So much positivity and fun despite all that went on. :) So cool! I've been watching all your videos and I haven't ridden bikes in years. Your positivity and wonder and the positive people you associate with is great! :) Thanks for all the content. That's also a really sweet bike!

Yep, i live in Park City Utah and everyone always asks me "Why Utah?" as if they are judging me. I know Utah has a Stigma, but this video is why i live here. This is my backyard. Limitless singletrack MTB, arguably the best in the country. We have the best skiing (in the winter) in the country. There are 13 incredible resorts within 30 minutes drive of my house. Just up the canyon (15 mins) from Park City is Provo Canyon and Provo River which is rated top 5 fly fishing destinations in the country. For boating we have Strawberry, Jordanelle, Deer Creek reservoirs all within 30 mins drive which are large glacier runoff lakes. Fishing is incredible in these lakes where i catch 15-20 lbs trout constantly. The Uinta Mountain Range is some of the best backpacking I've ever done. I have more kayak and paddleboard spots than I can count. And this is all just stuff thats 30 mins or less from where I live. I haven't even started on Southern Utah yet. Where you have Moab which has the best 4x4ing in the country and one of the best MTB spots too. Moab also has some incredible rock climbing (as does Park City). We have 5 national parks in Utah. Grand Canyon is a few hours away. Las Vegas is only a 5.5 hour drive away. yeah i could go on. Its a great place if you do outdoors stuff. Oh and I do a lot of triathlons and running, so living at 8,000 feet above sea level kind of gives me an advantage ;)

But its definitely miserable living in that haze and fog for two months, and it’s bad enough where I would caution people to do research on the inversion before considering a move. There’s drone videos on KZread showing the inversion, and it definitely sucks seeing how bad it really is.

That DB Syncr looks like a beast! I owned a DB Line (one step down from the syncr) for about a year and it was the most fun hardtail I've ever rode. Somehow DB has a way of making all their bikes feel like riding on a cloud. Although I'm sure plenty of other companies do as well, DB does it at quite the budget. To be able to buy a ready-to-go, full-send mountain rig for about 800 bucks is phenomenal, got it financed too so it was very reasonable...
