do a challenge like on top gear when you need to buy a bike for a low price and make challenges

[ThroatSore]

Just a quick thanks for your vids. I had to take a short, but steep slope the other day. Took it with some guts and it felt good. Nothing compared to the amazing riding I see you guys going but it was fun. Rhanks again.

Hi guys, I bought a new Cube Stereo hpa 160 a few months ago and have had terrible problems with staying on the damn thing. Gone over the bars on a jump and just dont feel settled on the bike. Any ideas? I've read that the Cube's are quite short framed bikes, maybe that's why?

[pawewielgus]

there are german brakes that are filled with water as a braking fluid. search for brake force one h20.

Man, after all the onions Blake had to eat, Doddy just shows up with no hazing in sight. Double standard. :P

[WIPEYOURLENZ]

Alright right there boys I've got a couple of video ideas for you.
How to ride steep rocky climbs.
Also the best way to carry your bike up a hike a bike section.

I've got a 2017 Kona kahuna, I'm looking to make it lighter. Should I get a carbon frame and put my sram NX drivetrain and other components on it, or get a fox factory and specialized carbon roval 29 wheels? Should be around the same price with discounts through local bikeshops and same weight whichever route I chose.

I have been riding a hardtail for around 5 years and just bought my first full sus, i am find the rear end super soft ive played around with the rebound a bit should i add more air or add volume spacers?. Sag is set at 30%

[dimensionsofearth]

Yes water in a disc brake could be interesting I've tried it but it had issues before I could even hit the descents (lever throw grew with altitude) also the water was much trickier to bleed than I had imagined leaving thousands of tiny bubble in the tube however there is a brake set from Germany designed to run on water and it handles all the descending you can throw at it I do believe they did some special features so it really doesn't work on a normal disc brake

[mariablanch]

wich bike is best? ghost Kato fs 2 al or Marin attack trail xt7 2015?
thanks

[Unknown-vfpz]

I'm getting a Capra al comp 1, should I switch to fox suspension or stay with the rockshox Lyrik 170mm I will be doing enduro/downhill

[SRLvlogs]

may you pls make a video on how to wheelie and turn pls

[timobusch]

hey guys I've got a question, i just bought new tyres ( magic marys) on my last ride i got a small tear in the side wall the tubeless sealant doesn’t seem to be doing the trick, do i just put a tube in or can i fix it, thanks

[Cthulhu]

i have a question, i have a 2016 giant talon 3 27.5 xc bike, i want to upgrade this, i can get a deal on new brakes from a local bike shop, and i have found a rockshox 30 gold fork with 120mm to add to it. The problem is that it is a 100mm frame, i know that 100mm are turned into 120mm all the time and that it will become a slacker head angle, what are your opinions?

[heathnortonflag]

I'm trying to learn to manual. My normal bike is a 29'er which I find more difficult to get the front wheel up. I also have access to a 27.5 and 26" bikes which are far easier to get my weight back on. So to practice manuals, should I go with the bikes where it's easier to start and then switch to the 29'er, or just go with the 29'er as that is the bike I am riding all the time?

[philwise]

There are a lot of steep hills which lead to the trails I ride and I'm looking at getting a new bike. If I were looking at the new Scott Genius 2018 model (which I am), which would be better for climbing, a 27.5" or 29" model?

[nicward]

When I pedal slowly with not much pressure on my pedals, the cranks make a clicking sound when the crank gets to a certain spot. What could I do to prevent this.
