View as: Slideshow | One Page
<b>When Andreu Lacondeguy returns from orbit, he counts on his YT Tues 2.0 to deploy the landing gear and set him down safely on Mother Earth again. Andreu keeps it real with a RAW frame "Party Unlimited Edition".</b>
<b>"Party Unlimited"</b>
<b>Andreu runs his RockShox BoXXer World Cup pretty much as low as it will go, and not many spacers in sight either.</b>
<b>Continental Der Kaiser Projekt 2.4, 26" rubber helps Andreu stay on line for those few moments when his tires are actually on the ground.</b>
<b>Hope Pro 2 EVO (40T version in the rear) hubs laced to Mavic EX721 rims. You know they can take a beating if Andreu trusts them to land on...</b>
<b>RockShox Vivid Coil shock, with beginning and ending-stroke rebound adjust to make sure Andreu butters those big landings, as well as low-speed compression adjust.</b>
<b>Andreu runs a Renthal Fatbar high rise, and he has scribbled some useful reminders on it to keep the important stuff in focus.</b>
<b>Hope DM stem, 50mm.</b>
<b>SRAM X01 DH transmission, no chainguide needed.</b>
<b>SRAM X0 Carbon DH cranks, DMR Vault pedals, and a "big-ass chainring".</b>
<b>YT's "Virtual Four Link" provides Andreu with the progressiveness he needs when stomping those 75-footers.</b>
<b>Sensus "Disisdaboss" grips, of course. So named after da boss himself...</b>
<b>To go fast, sometimes you have to slow down. Avid Code brakes on stopping duty for Andreu.</b>
<b>Will we see the diminutive Spaniard break his Rampage 4th place curse and climb the top step of the box on Monday?</b>
<b>Turn the knobs until awesome has been achieved. Then, just send it mang!</b>
<b>Andreu has dominated the FEST Series. Can he do the same here at Rampage? Time to find out!</b>

Description
Andreu Lacondeguy likes to go big, and go fast. As big and as fast as anybody, basically. Riding for YT Industries, the natural choice for the 2014 Red Bull Rampage was the company's Tues 2.0 DH bike. Check out the set-up Andreu hopes will carry him to glory in the Utah desert - first or last, that's how Andreu himself called it when asked...
