This seems like a great move for you guys. You guys have the right personalities to be a new, fresh perspective to the world of bike media outlets! Excited to see it! Congrats to us viewers :)
@@moandhannahtravel I like them both for different reasons. The RM is a rocket ship and great for most everything I ride but the Ripmo definitely has more chunky/steep capability and it pedals so well.
Yes please don't forget the Mo and Hannah gig. Love watching your adventures. Going to be sad seeing you not working with fezzari. But exciting to see the bike reviews. Good luck on the next chapter in life. You guys are awesome. Keep it up.
It was a great experience for you guys, but as well for us, knowing my son tour fork has more adjustments than my fox step cast 32. They’re both single air but the sun has it beat. That was an awesome video in learning experience. Thank you.
2:04 Great to have you as part of the Fezzari Family for a few years! Loved riding with you in SoCal. Excited for your next chapter. See you in Sedona!!! ❤
Looking forward to the new chapter. Would like to see you add in some long distance XC/trail rides. 50-100 milers. You have been killing it on the road bikes, let’s get some long distance MTB bike reviews. I’m 56 and will be doing my second White Rim trail ride this year. One day 100 miles on brutal terrain. Get at it young ppl.
So the crazy thing is last year I actually did some of the biggest rides of my life including a 16k feet of climbing ride in whistler and a gravel ride across Florida which was 215 miles. I didn’t film either of them, I was too busy suffering 😂😂😂😂 need to figure out how to video them!
Was the Kook growing her hair long a condition for getting married, Mo? It looks great on her! Happy for you guys and enjoy seeing the excitement in your faces as you start this new chapter in your lives.
Not sure how I stumbled upon your page, but I’m a local here in Clarkdale. I’m a 20” 1 gear kinda guy though. Would still be fun to hit some easy MTB trails with you, if you don’t mind a lagger. Congrats on the marriage!
ALASKA YES !! just be careful of the bears and moose on the trails hope I see you guys up here 🤙🏼 I also was looking for DVO shocks when I saw your review on the RIPMO AF I was SOLD !! I was not familiar with IBIS but saw in your video that it came with DVO ! Turns out RIPMO is a great bike. Thanks guys keep up the good work .
Hi, I really enjoyed the behind the scene these are really fun to watch, about bike reviews it's a bit of a weird thing since every newcomer wanted a bike it was a really hot market but as a long time cyclist I know damn well that buying a bike by reviews is not a good thing, you really have to sit on and try bikes to get a appropriate feel for it... At least that's what I gathered from my experience. Not sure the future of mtb on TH-cam will be with bike reviews, people are sick of high prices and consumerism, the best way to buy a bike is to try it the newcomers who'll stay will realise that eventually and far less people are in the market for bikes. If that make sense... Best of luck 🤘
I would love to see a shootout with a Gravel bike vs a full-sus XC Mountain bike, both with the same Gravel tires. I use an XC bike with gravel tires and really like it.
Yuka and Eric ran a series on mountain biking in Japan which was fantastic. That would be a great chance for some collaboration :) Be curious to see how the scene has changed there over the last few years.
@@moandhannahtravel Very easy to get a 'license translation' from AAA which lets you drive in Japan for 12 months. Now the actual driving is obviously a bit different.. road signs, customs, right hand drive, and so on... but legally speaking, it's very doable with a US license.
8:15 that reaction was hilarious!! 🤣🤣 i work in seo id love to offer some free help with the website love all the content ive been binging some of yalls videos this week!
No sponsors because the Bicycle Industry is really hurting right now. I myself think that at this moment, the economy overall is the worse it has ever been since 2008. People just don't have money for any luxury items right now, and that includes bicycles. We are all collectively in survival mode right now. People can barely afford their house payments and food, much less enough to pay for a new $3k bicycle. Even a new $1k is pushing it financial wise for most people. At this time, no one needs a bicycle, not even us serious bicyclists needs a bicycle. Therefore, it is very simple, the ONLY reason Bicycles are NOT selling right now is because no one needs a bicycle. We all already have 1 or 2 bikes too many. I don't care how much you discount these bikes, they still are not going to sell if no one needs a bicycle. Then it gets worse. Not only do any of us need a new bike, there are just too many high end bikes in the entire inventory of the world. If one were to really analyze bicycle buying history, and you will see that the people who buy high end bikes are few and far between. I don't know what the Bicycle Industry was thinking when they started stocking on there floors so many $5k and $10k bikes. At least 80% of of any sales floor should be filled with bikes that are priced between $400 to $1k. Even a $1k bike is quite an investment for most people. I do believe most people don't want to deal with their old junk bikes if they can get a new shiny one for $1k, but no way they will pay $5k, or even $3k to replace their old $1k bike. The only thing now that will save the Bicycle Industry is for another Pandemic and Lockdown to occur, but even then, don't expect 2021 sales levels, because like I said, we all already have our bicycles and don't need anymore. Also, good luck selling all those $3k bicycles in the next pandemic. At least in 2021, there were many $500 bicycles on the sales floor. Speaking for myself and my local riding group, we all already have the bikes we want. My local riding group is a a pretty serious DH mountain cycling group composed of about 100 riders. We all own at least 4 bikes each to include Downhill, Enduro, Trail, and XC Mountain Bikes. At most you will only see like 10 new bikes in the next 3 years between the 100 of us. Think about that, out of 100 SERIOUS riders, that is only 3 new bikes a year for the next 3 years, and that "10" is the best case scenario. I myself am good for the next 10 years (if not longer). I will buy new frames or wheelsets if something breaks, but I do NOT play to buy any new bikes for at least 10 years. So in Conclusion, the BICYCLE INDUSTRY is HURTING is because no one needs a new bicycle
Thank you for your insight! We should of been clearer, it was our decision to not have a bike sponsor because we want to transition to be able to ride even more bikes and into a bike media company! This is our long term plan! We think even if not as many people are in the market for new bikes, the bike industry will continue to survive because bikes are fun, and people will continue to ride them! Even if you can't upgrade your current bike in the next few years (which is absolutely okay), you will be in the market eventually, especially if you love bikes. The bike industry just needs to get through this slower period while the market and economy works through and corrects itself. We work with a lot of bike shops and bikes are still selling and we are stoked to help sell more of them! But more importantly bikes are fun and we should go ride them! 😊🤘 - Hannah
@moandhannahtravel , yeah, you don't need bike specific sponsors to be a successful TH-camr. I would look into bike travel videos, interview the locals, ask about their bikes, and review the trails and the food! The Sponsors will come. Then, you will hit it big and be like NASCAR where you get Pepsi, Budweiser, KFC, and Clorox for sponsors!
@@tomatostakefabrik9429 we’re going fully independent this year, focusing on reviewing bikes from all brands! Still working with Fezzari but on a different program. We want to basically be similar to a mtb media company but with our personalities leading the way! Hope that helps clear things up, we loved working with Fezzari, we just need to take the next step to create a more sustainable future for ourselves!
So excited to watch you both grow in the media space! Can't wait to continue to work together!
Stoked for the future with you guys too!!! It’s going to be fun!!!
Shawn @N+1 is the real deal. I've bought two bikes from N+1 with no issues.
Bike reviews please! You'll get a much broader viewer base. Oh and emtbs too!! 😎

Forgot to mention that I've bought two bikes from Shawn at N+1 bikes over the last 2 years due to your channel. An Ibis Ripmo AF and RM Element C70 ☺
So awesome!!! Thank you so much too!! Which one do you like better the ibis or rocky?
@@moandhannahtravel I like them both for different reasons. The RM is a rocket ship and great for most everything I ride but the Ripmo definitely has more chunky/steep capability and it pedals so well.

Good running into you on San Juan Trail this afternoon, conditions were primo, huh? Congratulations on the new media venture.
Conditions were insane!! Awesome seeing you out there! Hope you guys had no traffic!
@@moandhannahtravel the traffic was sparse- I saw some friends on the way up and some friends (you) on the way down.
Such a fun day!!!
Congrats
Thank you!!!!
Congratulations ❤ your channel keep it going 👍
Thank you!!! 🙏
Was the Kook growing her hair long a condition for getting married, Mo? It looks great on her! Happy for you guys and enjoy seeing the excitement in your faces as you start this new chapter in your lives.
Lol thank you! 😂🙏
Shaun is a great guy. He'll get you set up on an amazing ride
So true!!!
Yes!! The DVo video was great. Mtb needs more news and information and less marketing!!!
More to come! Thank you!!
You guys rock!

Thank you! And we will see, we think there is still a lot of potential and we love being in the bike industry and working with our friend Shaun!
I seen your selling your bike parts ! I wish I could afford that pink fezzari ! I love it ❤
make an offer!
I watch you occasionally congratulations and good luck
Thank you!!!!
Don't need a bike sponsor. Keep the bikes you have. And rock on
We wanna ride all the bikes!! 😂
I would love to see a shootout with a Gravel bike vs a full-sus XC Mountain bike, both with the same Gravel tires. I use an XC bike with gravel tires and really like it.
Such a good idea!!!
wow mo.....you did this whole vlog in one breath!
Lol 😂
🤣🤪🤪
Yuka and Eric ran a series on mountain biking in Japan which was fantastic. That would be a great chance for some collaboration :) Be curious to see how the scene has changed there over the last few years.
That would be cool!!! The biggest question we have is driving in Japan, that's going to be the tough one! haha
@@moandhannahtravel Very easy to get a 'license translation' from AAA which lets you drive in Japan for 12 months. Now the actual driving is obviously a bit different.. road signs, customs, right hand drive, and so on... but legally speaking, it's very doable with a US license.
Do you guys have recommendations for riding MTB in southern Vietnam?
We don’t but it sounds amazing!!!!
Maybe some baby equipment gear reviews would be great?🎉
😂😂😂
i very like see mo and hannah longtime.hope can tell how to buy ibis or ferzzari delano peak can shipping to hong kong

If it has 2 wheels it’s awesome!!!
What happened to Fezzari?
Still working with them but on a different level! You’ll be seeing a lot of bikes on the channel!

We’re not looking for anything!
wish ride ibis again
