man, i earn a living working on bikes all day and formula sucks (well, of course there are bigger suckers out there, how about some shit tektros for a hybrid hahah) but yeah formula - my least favourite brakes EVER.

Freeride marketing might be dead, since it's such a loose term. And no, freeride doesn't mean riding whatever bike/wherever/however... maybe let's call my 8 year old neighbour kids on Huffy's freeriders too, since they're just riding around...umm freely? I grew up making trails and shredding/learning to shred too, but I wish I could call myself a freerider, let alone a racer.... That's why it's not easy to market. And freeride might just be another marketing name.

whats wrongs with new young pony club? its a good band, an alright song and goes well with the video. nice to see more and more stuff coming out of barcelona, the european san diego :D

eff nasa, eff 6061, the real stuff is my Soviet Space Program-grade frame. it's very stiff torsionally, while adding bilateral corsional treble flex. it uses an eight piece structure for added lightweight-edness, to be able to pedal.

nice vid and what are you on about, the music is spot on for this kind of vid... ITS JUST that its way too much over talking, i watched it two times and i still don't think i got all they were saying.

thanks for deleting my comment

Dont give a monkeys if i get bashed, but 29 is just a fad to me, that will hopefully pass. Working in a bike shop, I can say, the majority are still designed as if they were 26, that is, as if normal frame fitted on big wheels... Stupid clearances, weird handling.. WHY OH WHY? Thats like doing road races with 26" (lets start to find advantages for it). Its just an unnecessary monstrosity. People will start coming up with reasons, like, oh yeah, it rolls over stuff easier, well, pedal harder and you will find that just about any wheel size will roll over stuff just easy enough. I can see its places though. Grandpa style singletrack or off roading touring... Cool video though!

can you actually f***in believe...now thats fast. What flow!
