This CHAINLESS Run made HISTORY!

Aaron Gwin chainless in Leogang, history made.

[Armeanu]

He had no means to gain any speed so he decided to never slow down. Legend!

[flawless]

Insanity to win with that time. Truely next level

[TheAvatar]

Crazy to think in less than a second he decided to endure the challenge instead of giving up. That's pure confidence.

[Nobody-vlit]

He had to hold himself from braking too much because he knows he can't accelerate if he slows down too much. A real showcase of experience and expertise

Edit: To the people commenting "Thanks for stating the obvious" I was commenting about how he had big balls and not braking on that terrain, I do downhill racing as well not on their level though. Not braking on that kind of terrain makes it very risky and can most of the time lead to accidents resulting in bruises, broken bones, and sometimes death. He noticed that his chains broke in the first few seconds in the race and was now riding chainless, he had the choice to lose the race and be completely safe or risk it and win, he showed his experience as he didn't panic and maintained a cool composure, braking only when necessary and didn't even brake on some of the obstacles. He rode chainless the entire way down and won beating second place one and a half seconds faster and if you know anything about racing that is very quick. The rider was Aaron Gwin and this run he made was back in 2015 in austria. It was considered to be one of the best if not the best moment in mountain biking history.

Absolute FLOW STATE. He was flying…
That’s maybe one of the best feeling we can have, already experienced it few times in different situations, it’s such an ultimate feeling… LOVE THIS

Broken chains released the inner beast, figuratively and literally in this case. 🏆

[chicken]

This guy is living life on the edge, no brakes, no chains, just pure speed. Incredible!

[MelnMel]

Basically no breaking too because he has to keep that momentum, give this man all the awards

[steviegwhizz]

NO chain, NO brakes, NO FEAR, Awesome run!

[SoulCrusherEx]

Lots of good lines chosen. He hit the apaxes of every turn, didn't breaker and let momentum do its job. Great Biker

[pieman]

Not pedaling allowed him to focus even harder on his riding, he kept his speed perfectly because he knew he couldn't get it back. That and unweighting the suspension over the rough patches. Nicely done.

I remember watching this live on redbull TV when it happened literally with tears of excitement standing and screaming with my roommate as he made his way down the slope. This was literally one of the most legendary moments in mountain biking, im so glad I got to watch it happen live

[houdini]

It's incredibly harder to navigate a bike without pedals, he was basically gliding/free falling down that hill at max speed, without pedaling once, and no crashes, master piece

[JoyBoy_]

It's not the bike.. it's the RIDER 🔥

[WELSHGAMER]

This is what hard core adrenaline makes you achieve 🙌🏻👌🥇

[oned]

Just goes to show you what perfect technique can do It's not always about power He was picking the perfect line and executing absolutely amazing

[Spacey_Tea]

An absolute BEAST! Adapt and conquer!! He did just that. Cheers!

[IrishCaesar]

Completely in the zone. Completely in the moment, right on the edge. Thats flow state right there

[brokenbones]

THAT...wow. Not only must've that been unbelievably difficult but to adapt the run and technique is mind blowing

[rainzer]

Man was unchained for the first time in his life. He truly felt free. Almost poetic
