 let's get 'em to do it 20 miles into a grueling ride sitting out in the heat after they ate some fiery jalapenos, forgot their tire levers, and there's a small child in the trees repeatedly singing "this is the song that never ends....." with a german accent.

 I think you can loosely translate this to "Enduro". I know who I'd be betting on

 Tire levers are for girls!
  • 4 3
 I have a relatively hard time doing it with tire levers, and don't even believe it's possible without them. All depends on the tire I guess, and the rim. Surely by now they have a close enough to perfect sizing for both.

 If I was presta choose between the two I would say clementz will win.

 Sagan would have won

 nah shurter would ruin all tere live.
  • 18 0
 What about Graves? He seems to be changing his tires track side pretty often.
  • 3 0
 You mean his mechanic would have won while he stands around with nothing else to do
  • 8 1
 Rude would take his jolly ol time and still come back to beat everyone by a large margin.
  • 2 0
 Tony Hawk would have one if he wasn't as focussed on his golf career.
  • 12 0
 Drew Bezanson will win, without even getting a wildcard
  • 10 1
 Aaron gwin will win the battle, since he doesn't need tire at all...
  • 6 0
 I'm sure they both shred/replace lots of tires, but Jerome's success any given day could depend on his tire changing speed
  • 11 0
 Imagine all the old shitty DH tires cam has had to wrangle
  • 4 0
 Surely enduro riders will practice quick changes for racing? This is not the case in freeride.
  • 4 0
 based on that picture, looks like Zink is ready to tear apart a scared Clementz
  • 5 1
 When is Monday August 24? Poll is closing that day.
  • 9 1
 I think it will be in 2020, so we have a while to wait...

 My apogee fucking thing doesn't even hold onto a presta valve any more!
  • 3 0
 Zink will win since Jerome uses Presta!
  • 2 2
 @mparpal: Presta is a general annoyance from what I've experienced. "Do not want"
  • 4 0
 Gotta go with Zink.....Rampage rider has to kill tires on a regular basis.
  • 8 1
 You wouldn't really have the same rush to get them changed as you might on an EWS stage though.
  • 2 0
 @snl1200: True...but changing a wire bead DH casing tire makes you strong like bull...lol
  • 1 0
 Looks like a catch weight fight here, might have to go with the longer reach, as it is the more popular choice at the moment!

 This video took some unexpected turns, that made it unexpectedly entertaining. Maybe because I'm drunk. But only may be

 Get them do to it on deemax with ust maxxis tyres and the. See how long it takes and how many levers they snap in the process
  • 2 0
 Zink runs Michelin tires there a bitch to get off zonked for sure
  • 2 0
 They should be challenged mounting a continental tire tubeless.

 I hope it's some horrendous tyre/rim combo that just will not yield to any amount of thumb force.
Could be fun to watch

 Polls close... Monday August 24? What year 2015 or 2020?

 I'd rather ride Cam's. His tube was inflated when it went in, Jerome's wasn't.

 Whats a tube?
  • 1 1
 Anyone who uses a tire iron to put the tire back on should be disqualified. That shit will cause a new flat 9/10 times.
  • 1 2
 I just use the technique of ripping the tyre clean off the rim of in a burm.
