That was SICK! The run after Danny was insane. I kept thinking you might slip in the wet but you didn't. Mad skills. I really look forward to seeing you race. Oh, and I think you owe your mechanic a beer and 10 quid :-) Best of wishes.
That’s amazing. I rode down there with my son a couple of weeks back, I can’t believe how smooth you made that look. Between us we smashed a mech, snapped 3 spokes, trashed a pair of shorts and destroyed a seat. Fastest run was just under 11 mins 😂😂 (had to stop for a rest)
Absolutely amazing, how you manage to clean the lens of the camera at that speed is beyond me 😂. That has been the best, most interesting video to watch, you really need to do more of them 🙏. I think it’s safe to say that Forbidden bikes are on the map in a big way 👍👍
Certainly proves that it is more about the rider than the bike with you posting times like that - absolutely nutty on a 130mm trail bike. Would love to see Forbidden come out with a bigger travel 'enduro' bike as no doubt it would be killer! Congrats on the progress dude you are smashing it!
Absolutely Stellar man! Amazing how it all comes back down to the (riders mindset & confidence) being the fastest most efficient way to ride/use equipment naturally Big Gains! & Chasing Danny instantly changed the results game! Haha
Seriously pinned. The bike is definitely capable of punching above its travel, but you are a fighter pilot on that rig. Love the videos!! Keep ‘em coming!!
On that third run your turns looked significantly cleaner and you were carrying more speed out of them, especially at the top. All three runs were damn impressive on any bike let alone a trail bike!
🙌🏻 unreal - last run had me laughing at how quick you were hitting some of those sections, to think ~70mm less rear travel as well. How about a future video with you running a dh bike side by side, similar to the comparisons you’ve done on wheel size? Keep it up man 🤘🏻
it's impressive af see your progression, of all mtbers that i watch you're the sickest one, i get hyped to ride everytime i watch you man, keep going on it GO HARD OR GO HOME!!! you're the best!
I counted 4sec after Danny when the trail opened up and he got away from you. That's so far beyond impressive! Wow! Second time I watched it now and as someone said before, holding my breath and can't look away!
Just watched it again you chasing Danny at Fort Bill, that bike was crazy fast ! One hell of a bike ! Great to see you doing well on your new Norco 👍👌😎🏞️🚵🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲
Was there at the weekend for the first time dude and hats off to you need to. See this track in the flesh to actually apriciated the times you guys get. Excuse my language but while I was going down my arse was making choccy buttons. (took me a good 15 mins lol) Great vid bud keep them coming.
@@LewisBuchanan well out of my depth at the moment but was a great day 29 degrees was a bit hot in the gondela tho and track was very dry and slippy. I was off 30 seconds int my first run which was top chiefs first left-hander lol to fast to hard. Could only manage 2 runs on each and I was starting to hurt. But will be back.
That was interesting, shows the capability of a trail bike, but also the capability of a downhill bike once the terrains gets really rough! cool video.
Wow, bit late to see this but it ranks with the most interesting mtb experiment I've seen on here. The first few runs looked really fast and on the edge, but following Danny I think made you push it, and then it showed sections where you had to hold back a little or just keep the bike in check, and that's where Danny kept inching ahead. Once you lost Danny you had no tow or target so you settled into your rythm. I don't think you mentioned if Danny was timed, but I bet the offset was no bigger than would have been on a race day. Impressive riding to push a trail bike like that but it really does show that it's the rider and not the bike that makes things possible. Clearly a great bike but clearly and a greater rider. Top bananas. 🍌
Man you're so ridiculous fast your filming setup really translates that well but to see Danny pull away from you blows my mind. That 6 sec difference is sick i wasn't expecting that Nice!
man that was awesome vid! your runs are very fast 🚀 and good lines too , but when u follow danny its like 🔥 ur up to the challenge of keeping up with him man' lewis that was entertaining and we're holding our breath hahaha then wiping go pro b4 jumps is really cool move. best of luck from 🇵🇭
You guys could do a series of different trail bikes (new or older) that have lower travel numbers, once or twice a month. Probably it comes down to risk vs potential reward. What are the limits of different bikes with only 120-130 in the back? What can "quiver killers" really do? Where would riders of your level reasonably (yes that's relative to you) take some of these bikes? It could be eye-opening for a lot of people.
Beast of a vid once again man! I was glued to it! Danny is mental! 😂 amazing what you can do on that rocket ship of yours too! What's the head angle on yours at the minute?
That was mind blowing Lewis!! What would have got you a top 50 for a world cup at Fort bill on a 130/150 trail bike is insane !!! Question for you does having a 27.5 on the back slacken both the head Angle & the seat Angle or does the Ziggy Link do some magic !! Great watch that was fast ! Hopefully going up to the lakes to demo the druid in the next 10 days 👍👌🤙🌲🌲🚵🌲🌲🌲
Thanks! Yeah the 27.5 at the rear lowers the bb slightly and slackens the head angle slightly! Ah that’s epic, at bike treks? If so let them know you watch my stuff, I’ve been there before. Awesome crew and good operation they have there!
Trail bikes are agile and chuckable and I think that's makes up a lot over a longer stretch... At the speed you were going you are basically flying over the bumpy bits. I guess where an enduro wins would be on steeper more verticle ground? Awesome riding BTW 👍
Damn, that was ludicrous speed! 🚀🔥 Now I’m really itching to try the mullet setup on my bike. But since I have to change the fork it might be a bit. I guess I better start saving my pennies.
Looking supremely fast as I've come to expect from following your channel. I would love to know what the guys at Forbidden are making of your efforts & how much feedback they request from you if any?
They value my feedback a lot and we work together super well. Communication is 10/10 with them and I am so so over the moon with the brand/bike and people all involved!
Cheers for the reply,sounds like a good relationship. Is there any scope for a vlog about that side of things at some point? It's the sort of thing you don't often hear about but I (& probably only me!) finds really interesting.
What I am always curious, how far ist the Gap over the small creek? Even the good riders reach almost the edge of the opposite site. It looks, you have to come with the most possible speed, otherwise you will crash and fall into the water.
Mullet👌 it was'nt 10seconds gap but i'd take 6 seconds all day on that last run with those conditions. Just goes to show considering the type of bike your riding. That was scary quick from where i was sat. It was nice with no trees as im normally bouncing off them🤣
Fair play that was some seriously mint riding 👌 cheers for sharing mate it's sick to see a little bike going so hard. Keen to see how ya go back at racing you are fkn pinned
Holy shit this guys got skills to hold onto a bike rattling through the chunder that fast. You can visibly see how much more your bike is being deflected by the terrain when compared to a dh bike.
Do you have time on your (old) other bike? like the slash or something else. I think that this case of figure is a little bit more interesting than with one bike only. just to compare a pure enduro machine vs a "trail" bike. Thanks Lewis, and of course all your skills is not about the bike ;). #PrayForTheDruid
would love to know what you could have done on the 219'er while chasing Danny as I am sure he managed to push you to ride a bit harder. great content by the way, thank you
HOLY F#CK. Sick dude. Brilliant video. Keep this up. That speed and banging out full runs on a 130mm 'TRAIL' bike. Insane. You and the bike are obviously getting on well. I know you wear Fox knee pads and a full face, but do you wear upper body armour while riding in your video's ?????
Considering your bike is a trail bike with one thirty travel I think you were really fast especially on the mullet setup it would be interesting to see how much faster you are on a downhill bike awesome bike and amazing rider
Pinned! I remember being behind you in the start gate when you were on the 29” Caught you leaving the start gate on gopro if you want it just let me know 👍
I’d love to see you dip your toe back in for a couple dh races next season. I honestly think that without the pressure you could get some real fast times in . that was an impressive run . and you seem to only lose time on danny when it started to get rough . and that’s what I’d expect from a dh bike .
Wow! Regular riders buying 160/170mm enduro bike thinking they need it for the trails they ride (me included) when this shows it’s just as much to make up for the fact we don’t have your skills. I know my Mega has saved my ass. Keep it up. Good luck.
Crazy to see the mullet being consistently faster. Do you have a feel for whether that's in the corners or the straights? I was just thinking I bet the slightly lighter rear wheel and less unsprung weight helps the suspension move easier, but I also am not a bike engineer so may be totally off on that thought.
Yeah it boggles my mind as well haha. I feel for me that it excels in the corners, switchbacks, and I can set up better and quicker/more easily for lines. 🙏🏼
Holy smokes. I have to admit that I was quite skeptical when you said that you are riding for forbidden since the bike doesn't have a huge amount of travel, but damn you are fast on that thing😂
Can you teach me to go fast 🤯
Big fan of ya stuff dude! Keep it up. Happily would try help n teach you dude, would be hella fun
@@LewisBuchanan Stop using your brakes, easy way to go faster?
Alan Burr don’t use your front brake as much
@@iuinshekenbcovno3862 depends on the dirt but that definitely can help
That was SICK! The run after Danny was insane. I kept thinking you might slip in the wet but you didn't. Mad skills. I really look forward to seeing you race. Oh, and I think you owe your mechanic a beer and 10 quid :-) Best of wishes.
Haha thanks man! Haha I’ll have him sorted! He’s a good dude
Respect for saying others have the right to be on that track.
Totally. It’s true. Thankful I could get by the other riders safely and all good! Shared trail right
They can easily hear him coming as he was breaking the sound barrier,
I've just broken my own record for holding my breath!
Haha! 😂

what you can see here is clearly: It is not the BIKE that matters, RESPECT man you are very fast!!!!
Thanks.
Lewis has slowly become my favorite mtb TH-camr, his videos are wild and fast, and I have never skipped though one of his videos!
Thanks a bunch. Rad to hear

Thanks so much will! That is sick to hear
Flying!! Great footage of your runs
Thanks!
Love the technical knowledge in your vids mate
Thanks!

Thanks!
Haha made me super happy I chose the trail over the enduro option! Thanks mate! Good video and intense speed!
Thanks
That was awesome! You were apologising for the murky camera. I was thinking 'STOP WIPING THE CAMERA! YOU'RE GOING WAY TOO FAST!!!' You're a beast!
Haha thanks!
I could watch u ride all day mate line choice and speed are unbelievable. So talented 👍top video every time 👌
Thanks lee!
Wish I could corner like you lot looks awesome I can't even get my head round how you all keep the bike planted on the track
Do you teach people at all I would love to learn how to go faster mainly round corners
Just watched it again you chasing Danny at Fort Bill, that bike was crazy fast ! One hell of a bike ! Great to see you doing well on your new Norco 👍👌😎🏞️🚵🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲
Thanks
So sick! The temptation to buy a Druid gets higher after every video!!
That’s what I like to hear!
@Lewis Buchanan
@Dean Eccleston
thats so true! I love the Druid and the brand mentality. But the little thing u can not buy is Lewis talent😂
@@LewisBuchanan I bought a Druid and I’m blown away by how good it is! It rips!
You were going so fast on that, l worried for MY safety. 😆🏴🤙
Haha 🤟🏽
Both the Druid and Lewis were punching way above their weight class on that last run. Very well done, and yes the witchcraft is real!
Thanks 🤘🏽🤙🏽
@@LewisBuchanan Absolutely. You are killin' it man. Stoked to see you riding for Forbidden. GL for when you finally get to hit some races! Subscribed.

Thanks
Have to say I am surprised the mullet was faster, but not surprised with your times, very impressive!!
Thanks
Absolute beast! Times incredible on that bike. Loving the channel.
Cheers Colin
Maybe following Danny also pulled you along to stay of the anchors and keep up. Best time yet. Thanks for the video! Great riding!
Yup thanks!
Knocked it out the Park again Lewis....i had arm pump just watching you :o
do you reckon ye could have kept on Danny;s tail if ye were on a DH bike?
Thanks! Um I felt like I’d stand a better chance yeah. I reckon I could have been Much closer
21 minutes of pure awesomeness. keep doing the videos the so sick 🤘👍🏻
Cheers dude! I’m enjoying it. Nice to see good feedback and people stoked on it
@@LewisBuchanan yeah man no problem it also nice to see you talk to your fans too 🤘👍🏻

Thought the mullet would be faster. These race preparation videos are the biz, enjoying them very much. 👏👏👏

pretty stoked to hit the track next week on the new yt capra shred, super excited now seeing the track quality is ace

Amazing man!!! Really excellent riding!! Well done! Could you please share fork pressure?? I am stunned!
Times with your dh bike in this track??
Thanks! I run 96psi currently in the fork. But I am thinking of lowering it to 94
Well done Lewis , mage fast gonna mullet my Carrera now and win the silverknowes brae challenge. ;)
Haha thanks
would love to know what you could have done on the 219'er while chasing Danny as I am sure he managed to push you to ride a bit harder.
great content by the way, thank you

Mullet Insanity at it's best! I know what I'm buying next, 29" Trail bike, running mullet setup just like my current hardtail, "Squish-Sqautch"
🤟🏽🤟🏽
man oh man your going quick down there on that bike!!! Ok so we know its good going down , whats ithe druid like to pedal up climbs?
Thanks! Super sufficient! I like it a lot!
Can you give a breakdown of your suspension set-up for this?
I’ll come back later and comment to you my settings 🤙🏽🤟🏽
I´m really impressed how fast you go with this 150/130 trail bike on such a hard downhill track, and how long you were able to follow Danny :-)
Thanks jan!

Yeah man, i mean maybe in the future. Pretty stoked on the Enduro riding etc at the moment! Not been on a dh bike in 5 years haha
thanks lewis , if you ever get into coaching, , I’d love to take the trip to scotland and get your help
No worries! Thanks dude!
Great effort mate! Most folk would be gassed after 1 run, nevermind multiple runs
You were amzing following danny!
Crazy Skill and speed ! But I think the last run was the fastest as you were trying the hardest to keep up with Danny who was obviously on a DH bike .
Yup it was the quickest
Very impressive what a time on the third run.🤙
Thanks!
This was amazing. 👍
Amazing Lewis👍⚡️

Would you do this again on the current Norco ? man you fly like !!!!
I mean I could but I don’t think it would be as suited , I’ll do something cool this year on anothe bike probably
