Looks like a riot of a bike. I’m sure SC has nailed the handling, which is what they seem to do best. There is something to be said for light, fast, and flickable, especially when it handles well. Looking forward to a comparison with the Intense, which looks similar except for the HTA. The Blur with a 120mm fork would probably be closer to the Intense’s HTA. Both bikes look like great fun. 22lbs is awesome!

yyYYESS! Killer footage, keep it coming. Big rear wheel flex from Loris. Hart and Mullaly seemed to have it smoothest. How far of a huck is it? 10’? 20’ with about 10’ of drop? Probably much more sketchy in person than it appears on video.

Wicked! Really interesting to see the ghost vs ghost overlay, the slab section was surprising as the outside line initially looked slower than the middle and inside but all riders finished nearly at the same time. Really cool visuals, can't wait to see more!

I’ve ridden my personal steed, XL ‘18 Yeti 5.5 with both 51 and 44mm offset forks, all else the same. I liked the 44 better. The bike goes around tight switchbacks easier and seems to have slightly more front traction than with the 51. As far as “calmer?” Not really sure, but I’m sticking with the 44. I would not be surprised to see more and more shorter offsets coming in stock spec builds.

This social look back thing is harmless quick fun. But really, your going to have a content battle over coping and pasting a few links. Love your work Vital and your unique content is what keeps me clinking, but let this one rest!

The rim strip idea is interesting. I wonder if you could do something similar to any carbon hoop by putting shelter tape or something like it around the bead?

Not just last year. 2016 to 2017 had an unreal amount of bad luck for both him and Keene; they're due for some fairy dust and magical Feng Shui this year

Lost his stoke for WC DH after years of pinning it. Decides to race the EWS and wins in what can be described as masterful strategic application of speed, preservation of the bike and not tossing it all with crashes. I have a whole new level of respect for him now after watching him apply his racecraft perfectly during the entire ‘17 EWS season.

Excellent talk, gentlemen. As a racer from the old school I was, foolishly and ignorantly, somewhat skeptical of CK a few years ago when enduro racing was gaining popularity in the US. The man has fully earned my respect. Its great to hear first hand how he wound up where he is. He is a product of skill, a lot of hard work, and the love of riding and racing bikes. Now bring on the ‘18 race season! Very cool stories about blowing $10-20k/season then paying it off over the fall and winter. For years I and many of my...

Team Giant sounds like a killer group. Cool to see all disciplines represented. Looking forward to seeing MG maxing the power meter on the EWS tracks deep in the Colombian jungle.

NICA (for the parents) - We heard one story of a large team that had as many coaches as riders - aka 20 dudes telling their bosses, "sorry, I have to bone out early today because I have to coach my kid's mountain biking team." ....more like "I get discounts for bikes from all those brands if I just say Im a coach?"
