It's a popular trail in Utah (email me if you want to know where). Despite the meager look in the video, I think this is the most challenging obstacle at 5 miles of Hell. Due to circumstances, the last time I was here, we had to push my bike up this thing since it wouldn't start. Long story we've covered in the past (blown fuse I didn't diagnose). So this time, I was pretty nervous since I'd never hit it before and I'd seen many failures, but also many successful attempt as well.
After making it pretty cleanly on that first attempt, I decided to get shots of Tyler and Garrett practicing on it. Made for some fun footage. Hopefully you like the edit!

I saw this in person for the first time a few weeks ago. For those of you studying video in the hopes of going down, study his body position. Your only hope is good body position, throttle/clutch control, AND momentum. He makes this line of obstacles look a LOT smaller and more manageable than a mere mortal can tackle. Speed is your friend, but you need all three before you can do what you see here. #respect
Well done video! Best I've seen. I rode that trail in 2015 on my '13 300XC-W. The Crux is, by far, the hardest part. In the same ride I rode a 2014 YZ250F (set up for a rider 75 lbs lighter) up the Crux for a fellow rider. I took the same line as you with both bikes. Same results!
That trail looks seriously challenging. Excellent footage and presentation.
narrator voice: he did in fact hook it.
nice job! fun place good stories
its amazing what a little momentum can do! these bikes can go over almost anything
also on your decent as well. i was cringing when your front tire dropped slowly into those holes. a little faster and it will smooth way out
True
It’s been so inspiring watching you progress and crush obstacles like this 💪
That footage was amazing. Nice work
That feeling when you conquer an obstacle :) awesome footage!
Thanks Martin.
Not awesome the best footage I’ve ever seen I’m just gonna ask could u do more of these? But still awesome footage like Martin said :)
XC-W for the win! Long live the mighty XC-W! No other KTM bike model can do this kind of stuff as well. Good job floating over that gnar in pro style!
Thank you
How'd you like the OC forks compared to the AER48s on the xc?
@@clintonlied I prefer the softer set up on the XCW. The PDS is linkless and the open cartridge is more durable and predictable. The bike just floats over the nastiest stuff. The AER forks can be softened up to mimic the XCW Explor forks though. But the AER forks and the linkage set up on XC models is a hybrid setup built for mixed in high speed moto sections with large jumps (hair scrambles) and not exclusively for the woods or extreme enduro gnar. For that you def want to stick with the XCW. There’s a reason the pros take the XCW to erzberg or romaniacs and not the XC. Just my two cents
@@thepatternforms859 5 moh isnt close to hard enduro. the reality is that most of anyone riding, unless you're training in creek beds, is going to be faster than where the xcw excels. its all preference. i prefer linkage as its more active and air as it is more supportive. my xc will go over more than your xcw. if you cant ride it on a xc, you wont be able to ride it on an xcw.
@@7daniel49 totally not true. Mate, there is a reason why the pros take XCW models to erzberg and romaniacs not XC models. And it has more to do with than just creek beds (although the XCW is better than an XC there too).
The XCW is more capable and suited better than an XC in several situations...On steep switch backs try doing pivot turns on an XCW then try on an XC. The XCW gear box is MUCH more suited. Same goes for loading the fly wheel from a near stand still and splattering onto massive boulders or over logs without hitting the frame or linkage...In addition the linkless PDS suspension just glides and floats over anything without getting hung up or rocking you to the side. Headlight is a sweet thing to have too.
XC is a great bike don’t get me wrong but it is no XCW. Compromises where made to make the XC a better hybrid for faster speed open terrain (GNCC style Hairrambles with mixed in moto track). Think of the XC bike being a split between the motocross SX bikes and the hard enduro XCW woods bikes. The XC can do a lot but it is not the best choice for motocross nor is it the best choice for hard or extreme enduro woods riding.
This is common knowledge really.
Moreover, The newest suspension and frame on the 2020+ XCW is actually better than ever. It’s a new bike practically and can be ridden much faster than ever before. For 99% of riders the XCW is much faster than the riders skill level. You have that backwards.
Lots of XC guys will get offended hearing this point of view but it’s true; the XC is simply not as good on motocross tracks as an SX even though XC guys will try and tell you it is. The same is true with offroad enduro and the XCW models.
The idea that the majority of riders are too fast for the new XCW bikes is a joke. And the idea that your XC will go over more stuff than an XCW is also a joke. Surely you are kidding ...
Hey, you're supposed to do this in August. About 12 of us headed to Moab in mid-April from the TrueNorthMotos and Marlboro Men crowd. My 3rd time. The first time was as a pretty newb guy solo. Planted my foot in a steep spot, looped bike, got all the weight on my right foot and snapped my Achilles. That was day 8 of a 23-day road trip, the Achilles had me off the bike one day, kept traveling the SW of USA. Would take 3 yrs to 90% heal. Watch yourself in Moab, sneaky dangers...there's a reason why every group has one guy in a cast/crutches.
Yup , that feeling you get when everything flows just right is awesome.... I can't wait for the snow to be gone and get out riding 🙂
I love dirt biking
Absolutely the best footage of the crux to date !! Nice work !
Awesome footage Kyle!
Spectacular vídeo congrats!
Just Awesome, really enjoyed watching this. Thank you for the content Kyle, greetings from South Africa.
Wow! What progress. I’m proud of you!
The 3 double O's,, just work horses, you gotta love em....😁
One of the best edits ive seen on DBC! Sweet!🤙
Tuff. Inspiring. Love it. Can't do I guess. But Iove to watch at least. Better young man fight this way then each other by evil means.
Isn't it a great feeling when you accomplish something difficult that you know you can do!
Awesome footage! Looks like one hell of a workout.
Excellent footage and riding skills what a place👍
Hey Kyle, I know in the past you have had to use aftermarket silencers because you need a spark arrestor. Have you seen the universal USFS approved spark arrestor that Fisch Moto makes? Just thought you may want to check it out if you haven't yet, it sure beats tossing all those brand new silencers under the bench😉
Nice bit of riding there as well!
Wow. That was some sketch terrain. Well done! Thanks for riding this and posting.
Dude, yer killin' it!👍👍👊
That’s some gnarly riding. You know when it looks tough on the go pro it’s gnar in person. Don’t think I could wheelie up the stone steps like that. Nice riding!
yikes.... you guys are nuts 😂.. Good progress on the slow stuff.
Nicely ridden sir! That's the first time I've seen Tyler really struggle.
Brilliant video footage 👌
i was holding my breath watching lol
Nice Job Kyle!!! I was lucky enough to clean it my very first try and boy was I happy that I didn't have to go for it again.
Great job Kyle!
This trail is so gnarly!!
2:40 nothing hurt but pride. Kudos on the very good editing, color work, audio. Easy to go unnoticed but I do much of this kind of vid work on my channel.
One gnarly arsed climb.
Cool video once again mate 👍
Thanks Glenn
Great video. Loved seeing more of the drone footage and footage of the other guys riding. Especially love the amount of bald head we saw (coming from a fellow baldy).
Looks so much easier when you make it through 😁🤙
You need to ride it when it is not wet and tacky. It becomes a whole different level of fun.
Awesome ride - looks like someone got a Skydio :) , great footage
Love the drone footage and the different camera angles of the same run.
Thank you
@@DirtBikeChannel Great job love watching your channel!
Great job!
Ready to ride for sure Moab was amazing two weeks ago! Good stuff man
Haha! I've always had people who subscribe for the sole purpose of dis-liking videos. I can get dislikes before people have time to watch the videos sometimes. So cool :)
Great content bro
Need to get me a 2 stroke - that thing pulls!
Sick
Always wondered why it’s called 5 moh when it’s over 8 miles long. Fun ride.
Yes I would if I had one looks fun
That is some awesome footage! Wow. I’m moving to Colorado this Summer, and I ride ADV bikes. I have a Suzuki VStrom 650 and it’s great for the dirt roads, creeks and light off-roading here in Alabama. I really want a dirt bike or dual sport for those Colorado trails, canyons roads, etc...any suggestions on what I should be looking at? KTM, Beta, Husqvarna? 350/450/500? Thanks man!
You seem to be spending more time on the xc-w... is it becoming your favourite?!
For the algorithm!
Cool video,glad your son is all right.
Well, shoot, I keep putting off doing the 5 MOH trail and just stick to the Red Trail, but it might be time... I love the drone footage. Really helps us see what's going on.
It's a fun one... if you are into this type of riding.
Yes
How do you get your helmet can so clear. When I upload mine it gets all pixeled
sometimes we need these tests done and conquered! redemption 💪👏👏👏
Fun video. I didn't understand how that could be fun - until yesterday when I rode my new (old) 2014 KTM 300 XC, I found myself looking for rocks to climb. Much less fun on my 450FX.
You really should do more cinematic stuff like this more often.
Man I love your videos you the best and next year I'm getting a dirtbike I'm 11 years old have any ideas on witch bike I should get 😁
What type of riding are you getting into and how big are you? 85cc twostroke is a really good bike to evolve on and dont need too much maintenance. that's where i started as a 12 year old and i loved that bike (kx85)
They are spicy tho so be careful when you start of
Good Stuff. I'll be there late Sept early Oct for sure.
Rock on!
The footage is great ! And honestly how could you push 👎????
We’re do you keep your camera mounted
I don't use a pipe guard but seeing that guy pinned makes me second guess. His armpit would have been burnt to the bone if he didn't have one.
Hey Karl, you should check out Oxygen Advantage by Patrick Mckeown where you only breath through your nose. I have been doing that for over a year for all exercises i do including dirt riding and it helps a lot. Thanks
I enjoy riding 5MOH and like to watch others tackle obstacles that give me trouble but is it really cracking the crux when you make a rock ramp up the ledges? I am sure that Kyle was not happy with the people who made his cliffs of doom easier. Perhaps he will try the crux without the rock ramp next time.
does rockymountainatvmc sell in Australia?
Momentum is key. When I'm having a bad day riding, 90% of the time it's that. Nice work Kyle!

Is this the 300xc?
Kyle where is this ride at? Can you send me any GPX track
Way tougher than it looks. Got to hit it hard. But if things go wrong when you hit it hard not so good things can happen. I took the chicken route.
Thank goodness that carbon pipe guard acts as a heat shield!
Just bought a 300 XC. Curious what gear you’re in most of the time and what you’d recommend for me. Especially in the slow rocky stuff. Rekluse clutch.
No Rekluse it will make you a worse rider.
@@chrispederson4157 bike came with it. What’s the negatives of the Rekluse?
@@huntsnlove Do you have good clutch skills now.
@@chrispederson4157 I don’t. I trail ride in high school 20 years ago but haven’t ridden since. Just getting back into it. This is my first 2 stroke as well. The ole 86 Honda 350 xl didn’t have quite as much bite as this KTM. 🤣
@@huntsnlove Rekluse will teach you some bad habits. Clutch control is the difference between a good rider or not. Look at trail riders. I might be wrong I seen guys put a Rekluse on there bikes that had ok clutch control but once they try to ride a bike without Rekluse again struggle.
You shoul try a 300 TM injection so worth it!!!!!!!
Pretty soon there will be enough rocks stacked into the crux that it will not be the crux. Pour a little water and we may have a sidewalk.
Hmm. Looks like fresh paint on the trail.
Yeah, thankful for the volunteers that do that.
The one dislike must be from a guy who rides quads...
I ride quads and dirt bikes. Its all fun stuff.
@@FunGoingFast means your BI
Would that guy who was pinned under the bike, been able to get out if he was riding alone?
He's really strong, so my guess is yes. Just glad we were there so he didn't have to do that.
He is VERY lucky he had a pipe guard on
I dont even see the line as your going.... thats rough
You should try motocross
Wow I suck at riding 😕 🤣🤣
Yeah when you focus hard you hold your breath man gotta stop that I'm sure you know since you mentioned it but try throwing punches and shooting a breath out at the same time cuz in martial arts you need to breathe constantly as well and it'll help teach you not to hold your breath
The video does not do this place justice! You're making it look too easy...
Yeah, those obstacles are the real deal. Cameras make them look so stupid.
