Video: Don't Call It Enduro

Don’t call it Enduro. Just because I ride a 150mm bike with a dropper post doesn’t mean it’s Enduro. It’s called Mountain biking. Screw fitness regimes, shiny new kit and Strava KOMs; mountain biking needs to go back to what it was like “back in the day” when people just hucked things to flat and didn’t care about all this MTB drama. People need to simmer down and go ride bikes with their best buds and stop getting caught up in all this drama. I wanted this video to have some hucks to flat, high speeds, some good ol’ VH, and hopefully inspire a few to go out and shred. Enjoy!

 Well, let's see, you SMASHED 3 of my favorite things:

1. You're riding a Knolly
2. You used my favorite VH song of all time
3. You mention 'hucks to flat'

Please email me at info@knollybikes.com so I can swag you THE EFF out. That is all. This video is going on the Knolly Facebook page immediately.

 Thought you might like that... hence the x post to MTBR - Knolly Forum. What a great video for the "little" bike. Oh, and the rider's not bad either :-)

 Holy carp! I have that bike - in that color - but it doesn't do that when I ride it! Great clip and I love the song choice - thanks! I am running out of exclamation points!! I think I will sell my Podium now and just keep riding my Endorphin (with Marz 55 on front).

 dh-bike speed and air on a single crown thanks to some obvious skills and in no small part to the flying Hawaiian shirt: sure to be the uniform standard for 2015 team kits on the EWS.

 If those are 27.5" wheels it's enduro. If they are 26" wheels it's FreeRide. Let's not create confusion by calling it mountain biking.
