On the Ari Superior - they've shortened everything and pimped it all for tricks but what's with that super high standover height? Why not optimise that for tricks too?
Loved all of the bikes. Have to say was good seeing them in the carpark/basement, the lights and white walls really made the bikes pop! Praise that rain! 😄
I think it's partly also his personal preference. Having a heavier bike allows you to move your body differently on the bike, which some people like more
@@carlomeinecke1964 naw, nobody is going out of their way to ride a bike with a motor and battery on dirt jumps. Sam is just able to ride anything to make sponsors happy and still shred
@@MondiMTB he’s literally sponsored by Canyon, half of his videos are promoting new bikes from Canyon. No hate, he deserves good bikes and money. But nobody would go out of their way to ride an eMTB at a free ride competition unless someone asked them too.
@@jackfalcon5352 or its just the newest one and he wants to ride it? He rode the torque O:N too which is a 180mm freeride bike with a bigger motor. Remember. Weight = speed
Some cool paint jobs this year, really nice, like Bienve's and Casey's the best. Small suggestion for Kaos if he really plans to continue to ride without gears, get an SS/Trials hub, it'll let him build a completely dishless rear wheel, which will be much stronger and he can still fit 5 or 6 cogs on there if he happens to need some at some point.
Been riding mini mx for about 2 season. I love it since I only do bike park. My frame was also 210/55, which 160/150 beofre and i did some experiment so now it's 190/180. Switched it to zeb 190 front and DVO jade 8.5x2.5 rear. Same Bb height as that V10. I'm usually riding medium bike since I'm 171cm tall, but I now use small size since I found out I have shorter arms with longer legs. Much more control going downhill too with riser handle bar, singlespeed made it more responsive in the rear.
With the no drive train bike, are the pedals locked? Seemes you might as well go with fixed foot pegs or are there rules that say they have to be free moving pedals or other restrictions? Does he just like the pedals being used to that configuration?
Because even with the suspension that heard it absorbs the huge landings these guys are putting down. If it was any softer they would blow through the travel and bottom out big time
Please stop saying FORKS!!! It’s a suspension fork!!! Fork! As in not plural!!! It’s like when Bush said nucular and every muppet in the world began pronouncing it wrong.
What do you think of these bikes?
I want all of em

They're nice
Very interesting! Tempted to go mix 27.5/26 one speed on my first ever freeride bike for the parks in Cornwall 🎉
You can definitely see Blake is passionate about the segment he talks about.
that giant looks so sick
Tom Isteds Bike reminds me a bit of an old specialized status, 26 inch of course, one of my mates rode back in the days
Everyone on full 200 dh bikes and than there is Mr. Sam pilgrim on a 150 e-bike😂
He's just built different 😂
Loved all of the bikes.

Praise that rain! 😄
Great job remembering and actually knowing all the brands and types on the bikes. Blake TOPs.
So its rock hard is it?
harder than last time
It ain't fun when it's soft
Tom Isted keeping 26" alive.
What a legend
Freeride keeping my '17 Kona Stinky 26 relevant. Running 26" 36H Halo SAS front and rear. Bombproof and fun AF.
Nice to see Isted running 26"
Wonder how much Canyon is paying Sam to ride their E bike at a free ride event that doesnt even require a chain.
I think it's partly also his personal preference. Having a heavier bike allows you to move your body differently on the bike, which some people like more
Im pretty sure hes not getting paid.

cool to see a triple crown suntour fork
Triple clamp*, which is the same as a dual crown.
@@GnarlyGroove lol I knew this was gonna happen, they have so many names

That Ari looks dope.
This was really interesting 👍
Nice vid Blake
Ooft that Propain was rad!

Canfield is still building incredible bikes!!!! The have added components to their portfolio.
I ride my Nimble 9 three times as much as my other bikes! Love Canfield and Revel has used their suspension platform too.
Isnt Kaos hub silent because the freewheel isnt moving since theres no chain?
@@short-stories0309 of course that’s the reason
Bro your super smart 💀
Kaos Seagrave Canyon Torque is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
tom isted won the list for me
Thank you
26" Single Speed ❤
Tom Isted's bike. Wow.
With the no drive train bike, are the pedals locked? Seemes you might as well go with fixed foot pegs or are there rules that say they have to be free moving pedals or other restrictions? Does he just like the pedals being used to that configuration?
26 crew sign in
So are the cranks in a fixed position on the bike with no drivetrain?
Rock hard indeed.
Kaos running ODI Longnecks flipped?
The stepped in section is on the inner side?!?
canfield still makes great bikes!
vero with 300 psi in shock like W H A T
The canyon torque with no chain is only 170mm of rear travel
No chain is crazy I need the feel of the chain under my feet... Unless he locked the pedals somehow.
Love Sam Pilgrim but who did the pain on that bike? Don’t leopards have more than 5 spots?
On the trek session it had a 475lb spring I am 95lbs and I run a 500 on my enduro 😢
So it seems that now everyone has an Enduro bike the industry has pivoted to the next must have: Freeride bikes.
More like the freeride crew had to improvise because the bike industry pushed 29s on everything. If you want to have fun 29s suck
9:00 ots not audi nines anymore its swatch nines 😂
R O C K H A R D
OFF THE CHAINS... COAST TO COAST.
I love when it’s rock hard
You do?
Is it safe to assume these bikes are rock hard 🤔
Was it rock hard enuf for you, mate?
they should be on hardtails
the spindrift is so sexy
bienvenido's bike is the same as his rampage 2023 bike
Are Blake's feet real? They look computer generated.
1st
One thing they all had in common is there all sponsored to ride these bikes
Canfield....still makes bikes.
If they make the suspension so hard, why not ride hard tails. All said the bikes look awesome
Because even with the suspension that heard it absorbs the huge landings these guys are putting down. If it was any softer they would blow through the travel and bottom out big time
A game of B.I.K.E with the Don beacons…
rock hard?

Lmao
Forks
Forks
I agree, figured it was a British thing
Who says suspension fork? 🤣
Without a chain, its no bike anymore, just a big scooter, sorry.
That's rite...!
there santa is boring...only red
I don't think you can say it rains cats and dogs anymore these days. You might give Trump ideas.
