Ritchie Rude will ride whatever. 29 or 27.5, high stem or low stem, 740mm bars or 730, aluminum rims, etc! he says it does not make much of a difference. Not only is he a fast Racer, but he is an honest racer.
Glad to see more companies abandoning the swoopy brokeback shapes for straight forward lines. I was hoping the long travel updates would get the SB100's protected stanchions, though. At any rate, that's a sweet looking frame.
Something I noticed strange is he's still on saint brakes yet at the other race he was on the new xtr??? Someone please explain why hes back on last gen gear or is it simply just a frame built up for this video.
I was really hoping they we're going to rework the SB6 in the same way as SB5.5>SB150 but no luck this year. Hopefully 2020 version get an overhaul and i'll be replacing the Bronson!
Fair point. on the sb6 outdated geometry. Also agree that it will likely come with updated geometry for "2020". Wouldn't be surprised if released in the spring like the SB100 did.
I am guessing Richie being super buff helps him take hits and on the arm pump? But cardio wise surely he gases out on climbs etc seeing as he has so much muscle for oxygen to get to?
Richie Rude seems like such a good dude. And the dude that interviews him should know more about him. Like everyone knows he rides higher pressures than most. Some of his questions were almost cringe worry with the awkwardness
You're correct. It's their proprietary suspension design. Both the reason they ride really well and are super expensive to service when things go wrong.
Hmmm, sadly the paint job doesn’t work for me. The kaleidoscope effect is way too busy and distracting. The bike itself is sweet of course, just the paint job sucks.
Thats the big plan folks. Just remove 26 and 27.5 from market place. Forced upgrades are here. Chinese model implemented. Oh u cant find a wheelset now. Oops sorry buy a new bike instead. Because they love you and they are here for you. Soon as 29 stock piles up, a new forced upgrade will magicaly arrive. Another sport polluted by over marketing aggressiveness. Pa fkn thetic
Microphone placed in glass of water for optimal hydration.
Stay hydrated guys!!!
Apologies, we had some issues with our mics during the shoot, but we thought it was too cool of a bike not to show everyone!
pro trick : watch series on Flixzone. I've been using them for watching lots of of movies these days.

Fuck yeah dude that's why we love that guy
Aluminum rims are ideal tho cuz reliability
Apologies for the audio issues, we had some problems with our mics during the shoot, but we thought it was too cool of a bike not to show everyone!
Awesome to see a bike check video with the actual racer, especially someone like Richie
See that frame flex when richie rails a rut. dudes a beast
Those fork decals are a nice touch!
I bet the landscapers hate him
I like Ritchie, he seems very less talk, less fuss just ride. Also pretty impressive looking legs
anthony Steele he’s a big fella isn’t he
You nailed it....a man of few words and a beast on a bike.
Richie lets his success do the talking
He is indeed quite quiet. Didn't have much to say at all when I met him a few years back in toowoomba training with graves.
Not everyone is obsessed with talking about oneself
Audio sound funny to anyone?
By funny you mean excessive noise cleanup? Yeah.
spot on kalsonic ....to much de-noising
Yeah
Apparently pinkbike can't afford a microphone
Michael Pidsadny that’s what happens when you use stock mic 🎙
When is the sb200!
3:11 wheel flex!!
5:10 Bar width be damned, Richie Rude doesn't fear trees... TREES FEAR RICHIE RUDE!!!

mtb editors wear too many flip flops
There called Jandals lol 😊
@@msudz1548 flip flops
Are two too many?
Does Editors imply one person?
@@Co-km6cl well in New Zealand we call them jandals all weather gear down here 🤣🤣
Why the different rims? Ex511 on front and ex471 on the rear. Anyone know?
Nice audio. Next gen HD sounds so good!
sick bike, sick rider, & for the heck of it sick sandals.
Ravishing Richie Rude!
The wrap on his bike looks kinda janky in places but still a sick design
Lot of the companies are taking the Transition SBG blueprint and going with the slacker head angle and shorter offset fork
Richie is one buff dude.
No, we all just have wimpy arms
For a second I thought they were interviewing John Cena!!!
😂
Potato used as a microphone?
Nice bike guys
Richie is my BOI!!! Such a metal rider. Also... That bike... Gives me a special feeling in my nethers...
What i gathered from this video:
Mike: so what is your exact dropper pressure
Richie: wait i have a dropper?
Something I noticed strange is he's still on saint brakes yet at the other race he was on the new xtr??? Someone please explain why hes back on last gen gear or is it simply just a frame built up for this video.
I cant tell if his frame is white with black stripes or black with white stripes
Looks like the old SC Nomad or a HT. Where are the curves Yeti?
Heyyyyy PINKERS.
Looks so much nicer than the minging orange or turquoise.
Little did we know that the bottle cage comment was foreshadow
just watched a new video on this new bike sick nasty
27.5 version and I'm sold!!
They have the SB6 152mm Rear 160 Front 27.5.
Definitely upload a clip when you get it! Would love to see :3

is he not racing enduro? thought you dont get timed on the climbs
Genetics mate
and lots of training in the gym
he is a top level athlete. I'm sure he would smoke us on every climb.
climbs are not timed in enduro
Shmee Burton 150?
drive train details?
what size is he riding?
article answered my question -- large!
Size M
How tall is Richie and what size is he riding? Which size would you suggest for 5’11 regular mortal dude
Great Bike (Not Tosca / Green / Blue) But Bad Audio (for Pink Bike)... Maybe let Ben Cathro doing this...
it’d be nice to hear what they’re saying
Nobody gonna point out how built he is?
I know he is not John Cena coz i can see him.
Anyone knows what bike stand that is?
Feedback sports, Scorpion
Does anyone know what size he rides?
Medium
Yep yeah yep yep yeah yeah okay yeah yep exactly yep yeah yep okay yep yeah yep exactly yep
Was there a bike in that video? All I could see was quads.
Ryan Kenney notifications quad.....
different rims front and rear; wider in front.
Awfully soft spoken for a guy named Rude!
skills soled separately

We need to ask questions that will satisfy all of our viewers, not everyone knows the ins and outs of professional racers :)
Morte videos with Richie!!!!!!
Richie been pumpin iron. Bike swoldger
med or large
Beauty
I thought it was a V3 Nomad before I looked at the vid name
Erm did anyone else see the mini shock just above the B.B.?
Tobias L-D that’s the infinity switch
yeti does this on all their bikes i think

F water bottles
Can't hear anything
Sounds screwed up again guys
I have wider bars on my DJ bike😂
OMG! Would you guys please just buy a freckin' mic? What the hell dudes...
I would have liked. 27.5 with at least 160mm travel. Don't say sb6 because that has terrible geometry
There is a new sb165
Next time do the wrap job before the components
Il est beau mais il touche de partout à moins de rouler sur du shapper billard c’est même pas la peine crash cadre pratiquement sur et certain !
Volume is so shit
THE WRAP JOB ON THE BIKE SUCKS .... MY YT CAPRA IS WAY BETTER THAN ANY YETI I HAD.
This yeti is a completely different beast from every other yeti made. Any bike for that matter
