Blake Samson Vs Sam Pilgrim | The Battle Of The Cheap Mountain Bikes

We’ve already proved that you don’t need an expensive mountain bike to have fun with your mates in the woods. But just who is better on a cheap (or free) MTB? Sam Pilgrim or our very own Blake Samson? Only a battle of jumps, tricks and skills can decide.

What should we film next with the cheap bikes? Let us know in the comments below 👇

"You can ride whatever you want as long as you're stoked on life."

[sparky]

Yep, let's see more of these two together.

[zeusdreadbeard]

Sam with the wise words. Aslong as your stoked on life it does not matter what bike you ride.

[neilblundz]

Great combo - Sam adds value to everything he touches. Love Blake too btw. 100% enthusiasm and zero % ego.

[CmndaPnda]

My favourite GMBN episode ever!

Two mates having a laugh with no fancy gear.

[ryansomething]

So nice to see two people who are clearly masters of what they're showing us just having a good time. No egos, no chest-pounding. Well done lads.

[pmckinlay]

I like that the Marin still has the wheel reflectors on. Appropriate.

[jacobgproductions]

Anyone else find the American accents they put on when they say “Droppin’ ” hilarious? Also, where’s the cheap bike 100$ upgrade

[dusalpha]

Best video I've seen in ages, you two are legends!!

[norfolkmtb]

Sick. This is gonna be a good watch. Blake and pilgs always kill it. If I done a collab with these 2 I would end up rolling round on the floor laughing all day. Good chemistry, sick video🤟🏻

[stevenexley]

These two together always ends with a great video

[brookproductions.]

Woaaaahhhh! This is my local trails! So sick to see Blake ride here!

That Marin was the thing we used to ogle in the bike shop in about 1998

[Latchfpv]

That was a ton of fun, love seeing Blake & Sam play off of each other so easily, everything just seems to flow.

[olivert.]

Sam is the champion of the FREE BIKE CHALLENGE! Those who watch his channel will know that that bike has been through a lot. Tacoed wheels, bent cranks, lots of stairs and big hits.

[mlankyrgl]

They are both so good and they seem to genuinely enjoy challenging each other. I think Blake showed incredible agility on a couple occasions: like when he was unable to complete the second 360 and landed on his feet. Nice! Thanks guys!!!

[joeharris]

Blake and Sam always make the sickest videos

[indorider]

Great fun watching you two clowns tearing it up!

[justin_smith]

Yes! Would love to see more Blake and Sam collabs! Can we get Tom Cardy involved too? That could be it's own separate channel. You three could be the Clarkson Hammond and May of the mtb world!
