ohh no
you say he knows the good stuff, but his choice in tires worries me. if that is the best stuff, then we are all screwed. and we will soon be reduced in riding skill to the level of yamy and his shameful contributions to this site if you are right. I HOPE TO GOD YOU ARE WRONG!!

some people are crazy.....he gone break everthing but he does.n't care about..just wanna finish the race...
Just for the record - the rim survived in a surprisingly good state, especially since it was without any rubber half way from the top. The tire is (because it's still usable) Nokian (Suomitires) Gazza AM 2.3 with folding bead so... it was supposed to be for my AM bike anyway ;-P
And yes, Majza finished the run, came in fifth (should have been first by a mile ;-) but you should have seen how angry he was.
POD if you please!

the tube looks brand new like its never been pumped up haha, its like he just put it on and forgot to pump it up
did he have to hit any drops/jumps on just the rim. if so and if Andrei13Street is correct that "And his rim wasn't even that bent" then those are the f***in sickest wheels ever and i want a set
The thing is, look at the tube, it's all flat like a new one that's never been inflated, I hate to be a killjoy but maybe fake? If it isn't, major props to the rider but there's just this little doubt in my mind...
Dude ever thought the tube has gone like because he had a pinch flat or a complete blow out? They can put huge slashes in your tubes, obviously it's gunna look flat!
mark523 - this is a handbuilt set made of CHOSEN DA4311B/DA4352B hubs, 2mm black CN spokes and REMERX Super Jumbo rims (straight out of the factory in Czech)
CHALLER!!! Get some wire bead tires. What a waste of a DH run/weekend. By saving a few grams look what happened.
he was puttin on the tire but it was a bit hard and he was just li
"f*ck this, it will be fine like that"
"f*ck this, it will be fine like that"
I see that all in all it was worth getting almost BORED TO DEATH when I waited for my rider to finally appear before my camera :-P

great pic POD !!!
great pic POD !!!
after i noticed the tire i noticed that you need to cut your fork stem down a bit or put the spacers below the riser. its good for your rim when you dont use tires haha
Sorry, I didn't have the time to cut the steerer so far because Majza is using the bike all the time ;-P

haha i looked at this like 6 hours ago and thought this would be great for POD, it's nice to see for a change instead of seeing all the pro's flawlessness we can see there determination and their compassion for our sport we can see that there not perfect and that's what alot of us think about, is how good or how perfect they are i mean hey there human too they have bad days just like us and they have accidents just like us , this is great
He should really get a new mechanic. Just tying the tire and tube to the bike is a pretty lazy way to set up for a race. Installing both on the rim would be a lot better. I mean, if he just wrapped his shifter cables and housing around his arm...

there is no way in hell that he made it down the hil without a tyre. i mean look at his angle. with no tyre on the rear wheel i bet he came right off.
I shot Majza with burst mode on in my camera about 200m from the finish gate and yelled "keep pedalling 4 f*k sake! the company is gonna get you new wheels!" and he actually did put his best effort to pedal as hard as he could to get to the end of the trail even quicker ;-)
thats happened to me before
you cant pedal and you have to cut the tire off cuz its tangled so bad
THAT SHIT DONT WRECK THE RIMS
HE'S ON DIRT
There's a guy commited to what hes doing
sure you can quit and save a rim
or you can finish to the best of your ability
and be godly like this guy

he must of not not have valve caps because on my bike the tube wont come off the rim unless the valve cap is off

Thats metal! This guy it a true ripper. Awesome POD, we have all had flats. It boils down to... how bad do you want it???
Would his wheel even rotate with the tire jammed in there? Still, that guy is gnar. That's dedication.
