Still the focus big bird, dirty sixxer and everything else with 36 inch wheels. Would be fun to check how hard/ easy it is to build a 29/36 mullet given 36 inch unicycles are somewhat more affordable than those and basically a fork with a seat

Leading the Dirt Shed Show off with an e-bike, several e-bike videos on the channel in the last few weeks, e-bikes in the news, e-bikes in the main talking point, Neil building a downhill e-bike and telling us to watch this space. What’s the deal guys? Is this now EMBN 2? There’s been more e-bike content than actual bike content on this channel of late.

That Black Math Bike is the coolest bike I've seen in maybe ever! There is genuinely something to that convertible idea! Takes the idea of a flip chip and the dropper post (not often thought about but makes 2 geometries 1 bike too) to a whole new level.

Enough excuses Lauren. Watch the DSS then get out there and make us proud ❤.

The Ibis Oso reminds me a lot of the Mountain Cycle Shockwave

Please tell us about that Pademelon steering damper?

The Trek Full Stache was a mad bike, might not look as out there bizarre as some, but put it alongside any other bike and the 29+ wheels look insane 😅

"Captioncompetion, holy moley, did you see that trail dog!

Just watched the teaser clip of death grip. Can't wait. The 17th.

Anything that includes a hose clip is a bodge...... Dam that radiator in my car 🤣

@Neil There are lots of GMBN fans in America, myself included. Wish the international shipping for the merch wasn't so high. When are you going to redo the "Triple Diamond on a Hardtail"?

Loved it. A friend of mine used to ride for them (Oliver Grossman) and his Trials Bowbike was ace.

The black math bike is the cybertruck of MTB.

I'd love the wild to be released as a DH ebike. Not everywhere with great DH runs has a chairlift.

Caption: I thought I might lay down for a minute.

What’s the connection between that Kross Moon and Propain? That rear end looks almost identical.

I want a black math bike but coil rear shock i dont get it take a e bike to turn into a regular bike what the advantages i put dh suspension on my Xc/trail and its multitask weapon

#captioncontest Hardtails, it's a slippery slope.

I want to make it to the bike vault so badly but they never see mine lol

Do we know anything about the Deathgrip 2 distribution? I'd love to see it (and had no idea #1 is on Netflix - awesome!)!

Black math bike-looks more like a cyber bike(inspired from cyber truck)

Neil I agree with you about the lefty fork.

Oreba used an Ebike frame for that DH bike because it gave them the room to make a lockable bottom bracket. It can be locked by the rider so the pedals won’t move, when pedaling isn’t needed and it can be unlocked when the rider needs to pedal. In the locked position, it gives the rider much more control and stability on the bike.

@@znon_There’s not enough to worry about in a modern suspension system. I haven’t felt pedal kickback since the late ‘90s.

I'm sorry, but that orbea is a solution looking for a problem. It's the mtb equivalent of buying a house with a fully fitted kitchen, then ripping the kitchen out and cooking over an open firepit in the middle of the room. I think, much they're all very clever people, the solution they're looking for is called a "mountain bike." Crazy, I know, but it might just catch on..........

I think its a new approach to a DH trend appearing a while ago. You may have heard of DH racers attaching lead weights to their bikes to make them heavier and thus more stable? They are saying modern DH bikes have become just too light and the lack of stability has been hurting racing times rather than doing the opposite. I think they wanna find out if the weight of an ebike, and also the placement of that weight may actually be the sweetspot they are trying to hit.

#CaptionContest Blake, hard on the back break...

The black math bike won't make it in the mainstream because no MTB manufacturer wants a universal Geo bike. Imagine having a bike you can ride anywhere, it's just too good of an idea!

Looking forward to deathgrip 2. Young Quentin Tarantino has balls of steel and a lot of imagination 😉

Helmet mounted impact sensors are interesting, but they should be planned as an extra tool within a robust concussion protocol. You can't determine concussion by head acceleration, but medical staff could do an extra check for someone who has a really high number on the HMI sensor but isn't already being checked, like an extra set of eyes on the course says this athlete took a hard hit and we should check them out. Clearly the threshold has to be set appropriately so you don't drive everyone crazy

A DH ebike makes more sense than any the other ebike. DH bikes suck at climbing and most DH riders hate the climb part. With a DH ebike, we would be able to session the DH track and save our energy for the fun descents!

they have tried this for years... Apparently the suspension linkage suffers a lot. Spez Kenevo is basically this and it will rip in half after any kind of real use. Only a princess has a kenevo last more than 1 month. Neils bike is basically a DH ebike

What's the point of "looking" at the orbea bike but not actually looking at it. The sheer amount of videos going on about this bike is ridiculous, its an eBIke with the motor removed. Now move on.

Do people really value carbon and glues more than their health..? i don't get it how long will people keep Riskin the biscuit for industries to make profit margins. Resins are glue and carbon is fancy plastic period.

Ebikes are basically wheelchairs for people who like to cosplay as mountain bikers.
