  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 มิ.ย. 2024
  • In this video I show you what it's really like to ride with a pro enduro rider. He is the best hard enduro rider I know for sure and the level of talent between myself and him is insane! We ride the legendary dark side of enduro with steep hills, muddy trails and some hard hill climbs. I had my first ride on a Beta 350 4 stroke, Oh, and I broke my bike trying to do what he does.. I hope you enjoy the video.

    Could you and Adam do a enduro training series where Adam teaches you cool things and we watch you hilariously fail at them?? Seriously tho would be entertaining and educational for us marvis viewers.

    This video is awesome, a lot of my friends are light years beyond my skill set, & I’m never the fastest rider in the group, but it’s cool knowing I can kinda keep up in my own way because of them. Both of you crushed it out there, that terrain looked tough. Sounds like you have some epic stuff coming up, good times ahead! 🤘

    You looked 10x more comfortable on the 4T. The smooth power delivery gave you way more confidence. I switched last year from a XC to a 500 and you can just do so much more in a single gear. The 250 is amazing in super tight stuff but I think you'd benefit a 4T for sure.

    Tip: always stand. You can't load and unload the suspension when sitting down. If its a section you normally would crab walk, keep one foot with all your weight on one peg and lightly push forward with the other, but dont take the weight off the peg foot.

    Riding the 450fse for a month now. Some ice and snow, but yesterday was the first full trail ride. It's melted enough and frost is gone. Bypassing water holes, I would have probably turned around with the KLR. I mean the KLR can break a trail but getting stuck because of its weight is a thing, this skinny bike isn't a concern. It's so light. Waiting for new tires✌
    True story, riding every day or every weekend is a great mind set. Everything is cured. Best drug ever.

    Honestly if you want an amazing Enduro bike, buy a 2015-2016 Ktm 250.
    We bought a brand new 2022 GasGas 250 and kitted it out with absolutely everything, never was as light nimble yet powerfull as those old bikes.
    The front is much lighter on those old bikes which drastically improves the handling and also incedible grip when crawling. Much more playfull and far less exhausting to ride than the new ktms.
    No past 2016 Ktm ive ever ridden was nearly as nice as this. They probably go for cheap aswell in decent condition
