That is the best pure riding video I’ve seen in a long time.

Let the speculation begin: would Peaty have had the same shot in the arm that Minnaar got when he switched to a long 29er? Did he retire too early? If this is his pace on a HTLT, how fast can he go on an XL V-10 29er?

I'm sure Loris was like "WTF!" at the bridge when he looked back. Peaty probably had a pint of Stella there while Loris looked for something wrong on his bike. BTW, it looks like the Fox suspension on Steve's bike passed the test.

Peaty is obviously riding that bike to the very edge of its capability - truly impressive. And holy sh@t how far did Loris fly on that first jump!!!!

Surely Steve is on the new NoTower/HighMad that surely has to be coming out soon. I mean, clearly.
