Max Horner likes #enduroing his #enduro bike. But this isn't a race course, and someone in the comments will probably say this is more like a downhill track... on a trail bike. Which is a 29er. And look at his helmet—if he pedaled to the top, maybe this is technically cross country riding?

Eh... who gives a damn. He's riding a bike, he's going fast, and it looks like fun. #skrrrt

Whips
Wait... this doesn't count as dirt jumping, does it?

Whooooof
That's some seriously good dirt no matter what you call it.

 This is great. It tells me what I want to see. It doesnt have the cliche one worded dramatic title like most edits do. Its almost like a porno title.

 A while ago I made a comment calling for more to the point article titles. My wish came true. So satisfactory.


Here is the comment for none that care to see:
What is up with these advertisement-like article titles these days? Its almost on par with the shit you'd see on Facebook. It'd be so much better if things were still to the point: Riding a Sick Freeride Trail in Slovakia in Winter. When I'm too busy to click everything there is on Pinkbike, but I want to be entertained by something, the last thing I want to settle for is a press release of Rocky Mountain's Carbon Fatbike, but at least I know what I'm going to be getting. If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't sleep at 2am, I might have skipped this article altogether, and its one of the best I've seen in a while. The photos are amazing, the riding is sick and the video angles are superb. I'd hate to know how many people missed that opportunity because a title does a poor job to stick out in a crowd of bullshit. Maybe it'd be easier to stick out by trying to advertise the unique product that you have: winter freeride in Slovakia. Now to address the critics: No, I'm not being pedantic. Transaction costs are a major barrier that are considered in any sale. If a product is 10 bucks, with 50 dollar shipping, the transaction cost can be too large for the sale to take place. Similarly, if information is too hard to access (a bigger thing prior to the internet) then a sale can also have too high of a price associated with it (both monetary and time-investment) to be worthwhile. In this day and age of the internet, it is important to recognize the significance of transaction costs. Although there was an expectation that the internet would be a technology to make information easier to access, the fake articles and clickbait on the internet are making things head in the direction of being just as hard as they've always been. If you have an article that is actually worth reading, and you want an article to be read, you have to give the potential customer the smallest possible transaction cost as you can, otherwise they might just click something different. You don't want your article to compete with all of the fake shit in the world. Something this great doesn't need to be sold under a title for something it isn't.

Some fresh angles and a track which really compliments the film.

 These days alot of evil riders. But is it really that 29er's is taking over of everything? Or is it just new scam? Can't find normal rewievs with updated info about 650b vs new 2017 29er's on handling and playfulness.

Why did it take so long to recreate bike for better solutions. It's just headtube and seatube angle, and reach, what is most important. Frame is bicycle heart, and we have bad doctors. I see still other companies making mistakes, or is it not?

P.S. Sorry for gramar mistakes.

 The new crop of long travel 29ers generally come alive at speed. They can still feel a little sluggish when you moving slow. At least that's what I've found with my 2016 remedy.
  • 4 0
 @allenfstar: Remedy 29 is still one of the best bikes around. Trek may have sold a few more Slashes and Fuels after they killed it off, but the new Fuel 29 is not quite up to snuff.
  • 3 0
 @allenfstar is on point, big wheels aren't the best when you're moving slow. But when you're pinned, holding a line feels easier and you feel less bogged down/skip over holes. And with good geometry, any wheel size will corner well.
  • 1 0
 @ajBoogaloo: I'm running my remedy at 150 up front and 140 in the rear and it's the best damn bike I've ridden so far. I'm looking forward to riding some other long travel 29ers to compare.
  • 1 0
 It's so hard to find a right wheel size these days. Everybody is giving alot of props to 29er's. And haven't seen a good review about comparing different bikes geometry.
  • 1 0
 @MarXaZ: I was lucky enough to get to demo the remedy in both wheel sizes and identical builds on my local trails and I fully expected it like the 27.5 better but the 29er was just magic. There's no substitute to finding a demo day and trying different bikes to see what works best for you.

 @allenfstar: Well the problem is, that is not possible for me to test these bikes, but I can buy it. Frown
Just searching one bike for all, I like enduro alot and urban rides, I like to ride all day long, I like to fly per obstacles Big Grin

 I don't know what the rest of you watched, but I only saw him ride 1/2 a trail. Builder coulda saved a lot of time and done a second if he knew that would happen. Myself, I ride at least 99/ of trails I hit. Show props to the builders.

 Can anyone tell if he's on flats or clipless? Not that it matters but I've been riding both lately and will be that much more impressed with his smoothness if he's on flats.
  • 2 0
 If you scrub to 00:00:01 in the video you can see and hear him clip in
  • 1 0
 @tsn23 Funny, I'm always more impressed when guys can ride like this 'clipped in'. I ride clipless and find it more of a hassle when in the air as shifting my foot slightly sometimes makes it unclip, whereas with flats one can adjust their foot without consequence.

p.s. I just watched part of it again and I'd say he's riding clipless.

 @ebwitwicki: haha dude you are 100 percent wrong . its in rutherford valley, which isnt really pemberton . the video clip around 40 seconds proves it . maybe you should ride pemberton more often bud, there is alot of new trails

 @ebwitwicki: Get your ass to pemby after the melt, there's a metric crapload of amazing trail you should ride!
  • 1 0
 @PeterWojnar: oh yeah I guess your right it is Shasta! Maybe next time your in Pemby drop some beer off at the local bike shop for the builders! Show a little respect for the community and thank the people who make your edits happen like the local builders, trail associations , and volunteers with out them you would be filming nothing! So get off you ass and respect the people who make it happen! Do you even have PORCA or PVTA membership? I would advise you to purchase both if you are considering to film in or around Pemberton!
  • 1 0
 @ebwitwicki: totally agree! A huge amount of time and effort goes into building a quality trail. Shasta's not some half baked disjointed trail scratched in with a leaf rake. At least credit the builders or ya buy some beers and drop them at the local bike shop in lieu of promoting yourself or your product.
  • 1 0
 @ebwitwicki: Why the beef? Trails are for riding and for sharing. Although I appreciate wanting to keep your local trails fresh for yourself, it's lame to direct attention towards a lesser-known riding area with actual issues concerning legitimacy and land ownership like BB. Shasta is on Trailforks. It's not a secret. If you had a hand in building it, thank you—it's one of the best around. If you want to suggest that people buy PORCA or PVTA memberships, that's fine. But don't be a militant a*shole without a good reason.

And come on dude, you posted a video from the same trail, linked to the trailforks profile just the same. The only difference is the view count. If you're going to be a dick, don't be a hypocrite too.
  • 2 0
 Hey Petey boy a thankyou goes a long way as does respect. Obviously you don't know what it takes to build a trail like this and maintain it. This is all done for free. So when I see an edit on pinkbike of my trail with no thanks to the local volunteer builders it's a kick in the nuts, and it's not only you it's a lot of others. I just want you to always respect the builders and volunteers and associations that give you trails to film on. Maybe if ever build a trail from beginning to end you would understand where I'm coming from.
