@@CamZink of course, you can color your stuff in gold all you want without issues - there is no patent on 'gold', but it still smells a bit like teasing the rival by mimicking the signature stanchion color. And mostly because of the other thing that was a patent issue and forced RS to sell their forks with horrible thumb screws to ventilate the lowers. 😉
I think the Orbea has a gear box at the motor place, I bet. That's a really good idea to take an ebike which is stronger, it could make only one bike for ebike and downhill. Impressed by the specialized, complete factory bike . yeahhh DH come back, can't wait for the fun and thanks for your videos
I'm pretty sure orbea is trying to build a modular bike. Battery and motor, e bike. Remova motor and battery then bolt on bottom bracket, regular light Enduro bike.
I haven't been following DH scene for a bit. What is the deal with Specialized bikes? Does Atherton/Robot make bikes for Specialized now? are these just protoype frames for testing...?
@SnootchieBootchies27 People in MTB are too obsessed with Kinematics and rear suspension designs. Frameworks is doing well enough with a Horst Link and an O-Chain. Specialized DH Owes as much props to Ohlins as they do to their oddball ugly linkage design that people don't want because it hangs below the BB.

clever move by Orbea to hide the motor under that sleeve, I don't think anyone will notice it. Just scrap the BOSCH sticker and you are good.
😂😂
I swear that’s what specialized has been doing with their bikes the last couple years they have had them covered!
Very stoked to see Reece back in the mix. He’s a class act and a hell of a rider.
Dakotah went full BMX... you never go full BMX! Haha so great to have this videos back, let the fun times begin!
Might as well slap a cruiser bar on it..
nah he knows whats up. comfortable rise with awesome leverage
return of the king lets go amaury!
Huge chad energy from Orbea with that bike and I'm here for it.
reeces bikes looks sick
That Boxxer in Vali's Tues might cause some aneurysm at the Fox office.
Kashima is not fox patented
@@jonas_cervinka Right. Cheers. But you get what I meant.
Good on orbea for getting out there and testing things
specialized demo cyberpunk edition
Holy headtube batman
That mondraker is wild
You guys rock when it comes to these style of vids!!
great content as usual!
love seeing the riders hyped.. bikes are looking sick and fans are ready.... excited!!!
Can't wait to watch actual Race ! 😊
Yeah, I've already given in and paid for my subscription. So hyped!
AP is fired up!!! Gonna be a wild opener 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼 thanks for the footie crew.
Nice. Best of luck
Now, bring on them practice runs🤘🏾
Awesome idea, keep it up and great job Heather
Not sure why everyone is mad at the race suit. I think it looks bad ass
😮amazing
What happened to Dialed??
For Orbea it would be Great when they have a Pinion Drive inside ;)
Love the idea of running the EMTB without the motor, and Martin Maes is a great rider.
After an exact copy of the Fox lower leg bleeders and getting patent slapped for it, Rock Shox is now teasing Fox with gold stanchions 😂
BS. Google Rock Shox TiNi. RS were first.
Pretty sure that was just Vale's gold world champ edition. And there's no patent on kashima.
@@CamZink hi legend🤝

Zerode use the Pinion gearbox.
@@grantnewby3756 yes thanks it was a mistake, corrected
💪
Stoked for Reese and Amaury to return to world cup racing.
Running an ebike without the battery is wild.
I hope Dak laps the field. I want to see every other rider showing up at the next with higher bars lol.
Fox 40s with boxxer stickers and 90s handlebars how wonderful
I have a feeling the UCI will ban the speed suit, as much as Fox say it isn't a skinsuit, they've clearly snuck their way around the regulations.
No terceiro mundo essas bikes e inviavel comprar .Por q eu sairei daqui.
Gwinn’s mechanic sounds exactly like him😂
nice
i dont understand the short headtubes really. So that you can put a shitload of spacers to make it high enough?
What do you think of the new rig? 👀🤔
Can you tell everyone else to use 148 rear ends too? Not everyone got the memo that super boost is mid.
The return of the skinsuit ??

Vali has a BOXXER KASHIMA ??
Not actually Kashima - just gold stanchions! Just having a dig at Fox probably lol
What exactly is different about the new yt dh bike lol
that vid actually launches in an hour or so LOL
here it is! th-cam.com/video/LfCtWvY_U0s/w-d-xo.html
@@vitalmtb just saw it pop up and watched already :)
YT dumped all the details on their site today, too.
Gwin has a new mechanic?
why daf.. we don‘t get Fox Dialed any more?…
Let our new bike distract you from the monstrosity on the front of Dak's bike 😉
It's for compliance reasons surely? Nullifying hand fatigue?
That orbea is strange…. Why???
9:25 french version of ratboy?🧐
yeah,lot of fresh bike porn-where are the gearbox bikes?
People dont like change Tahnee? everyone wore lycra suits for a good 15 yrs or so in DH.
Why in the world is Gwinn not racing again??? The dude has been riding for months! Just more reasons why companies say peace out.
if you like gold coating.. use a fox
Primer comentario
that black and white Giant Bike is ugly a.f. ! looks like a throw back hard tail graphics.
Speed suit is dumb! Change is cool but speed suit is unnecessary!
Wow, they somehow managed to make an even uglier Demo prototype. Thing looks freaking hideous!
Luckily they’re trying to design DH race prototype bikes to go fast and test new ideas, not to be eye candy.

@@steven.9263 sounds like you're too obsessed with aesthetics, which is subjective. Performance is objective.
