SKI BIKE SENDING IT! | Mountain Biking in the WINTER! | UNPAVED EP 6 (4K)

For us mountain bikers, winter usually marks an unwelcome break from sending it on our favorite trails. But what if that didn't have to be so? What if you could not only tolerate biking in the snow but excel at it? Well, thanks to some crazy people who refused to let mountain biking be contained to a certain season, we now have a little something called Ski Biking!
So swap those 27.5s for some skis and come along with me as I try out this crazy sport for myself. We'll huck, we'll send, we'll bail, but most of all we'll mountain bike in the winter, baby!!

I'm going to try ski biking today and this video is getting me hyped!

[@UNPAVEDTV]

How was it?

[@87MookTV]

@@UNPAVEDTV I ended up only being able to try a Snow Pro, but I had enough of a good time that I'm going to buy a SkiBike for next season.

[@Vote_Blue]

[@MrZootcat]

Fun video! And the music is good, too.

[@michaelhibbard5484]

great TITLE!

[@lamboman2]

What I was missing skiing all those years: a metal bar between my legs.

[@scoutfpv]

This is awesome! I can see the ski's need some rework. Inline ridges for better edging. It will only improve

[@socialbirb8940]

Nah, in the park?!?!? Time for a dual crown

[@n0.josin192]

Everyone life better then mine lol

[@2TrainWakefield]

I’m lookin at people on shark tank trying to sell this

[@brynndle1899]

Hello! Would you be willing to measure your ski bike frame and handlebars? I would like to build a ski bike but I need to know what size first. I’ve looked online and I cant find measurements for ski bikes anywhere. Thank you and have a great rest of your day!

[@RealEastCoastJ]

I’m new to this ski bike shit but you gotta make them costume? Would have thought at least one company is making these

[@dh_filip624]

@@RealEastCoastJ Tngnt makes some ski bikes, if you havn't found out already :)

[@RealEastCoastJ]

@@dh_filip624 thank you appreciate it !

[@Davmm96]

@@RealEastCoastJ you can also get the transformer 2.0 kit from sledgehammer (distributed in North America by the guys at skibyk) if you already have a good mountain bike.
But yeah, tngnt makes great bikes and they are made in the usa, so less environmental impact from Chinese manufactured parts.
Lenz is another big name. Sledgehammer bikes have a model with a motocross style seat if you prefer high speed carving while sitting down

[@Davmm96]

Ski bikes usually have mtb handlebars (a bit of a rise and around the 750mm width), frames are really skiing specific since they don't have the same requirement has normal cycling. If you already have parts lying around, I know you can order a frame and skis separately. There's always the option to just buy the transformer 2.0 kit to just mount skis on any bcycle.

[@toddfathermtb6942]

Could you recommend a boot to wear while skibiking? I'm going in 3 weeks for the first time.

[@UNPAVEDTV]

Sure, the Vans are great, look close at the ones I am wearing, very comfortable. Dont wear snowmobliing boots, buddy broke his foot, not enough support.

[@simongendry1823]

The threading for the left pedal is bad. The right side is good, but not the left. Any suggestions please

[@datedmar6052]

Name of the song at 0:35???

[@lowbuckgarage1]

I’m 62 yrs old. I ride mountain bikes, I ski, I race motocross in the vet class. Is this my new sport? Does Mammoth allow these?
Can I buy a “kit” for my mtn bike?

[@UNPAVEDTV]

Yes check out Lenz Sport bikes. Most places allow, Mammoth not yet though. Check the web for resorts that do most in Tahoe, Colorado etc..

[@lowbuckgarage1]

@@UNPAVEDTV Not surprised about Mammoth they were one of the last resorts to allow snowboarders!

[@jaws_drinks_water389]

If you never use your ski bike again I want first dibs

[@davidyork8020]
