30 Second Bike Check: What are riders using for XC Races?

In this video I check with riders after a 30 mile XC race to see what bikes they're riding.

Stoked to see my fellow hardtail folks!

Love to see the hardtails, especially the guy with a medal around his neck. Goes to show that you don’t need a top spec bike to compete. I recently sold my “down country” Canyon Lux Trail and actually went back to a hardtail and I’ve been loving it!

Really enjoy this sort of thing. Different perspectives, interesting people, a wide variety of budgets represented, and a lot of enthusiasm for the sport. Makes it less intimidating. Great stuff.

Clint, this was a great idea for a video. Thank you.

Great to see the diversity of machinery being used! Also nice to know there are still some hardtail riders out there; at age 61, I'm still blasting away on my Trek Procaliber hardtail, and still loving it.

I love this type of video.
So many specialized bikes

Lot of S-Works. Must be alot of dentists in FL :-)

Good initiative! I always like to hear about riders bikes! It's all about passion! Good to have at least one lady talking...

[dennisstempher]

Awesome! I definitely wouldn't mind more of these bike checks in the future :-)

This was a really good video idea. Good to see what people are actually using. Everyone loves electric shifting. Hmmm... May have to try it.

[alanperrego]

Thanks for doing this video. I've never done a race before and was curious to know how my bike would stack up to what others were riding. Looks like lightness is more important than having the most expensive bike out there based on those hardtails. Thanks for the perspecive!

[jasonkroll]

Great video.. definitely like to see more.

[robertsonfamilyfarm]

Wow great job interviewing and getting friendly racing feedback ! Kudos

[robtodd]

This is a great video concept to walk around and check out bikes! Keep these coming Clint!

[johnnyrocket]

The Santa Cruz hardtail in the video IMO has the best performance/per dollar ratio at 22lbs if optioned right.

[alexrobles]

I like all your vids. Do more of these! 👍

[michaelsrealm]

👍Scott Spark will be in my future. Keep the content going. XC is my primary mtb liking.

[TheJoncic]

Good to see people acknowledge they're not experts in things they might otherwise be expected to be.
