 It's actually called the Bendor Range. Don't know how TNF / Sherpas got that one wrong. Also a 5min heli ride from town. Don't know what the tents are for.

 I read the title initially thinking it was going to be two guys exploring the limits and range of what 'Bender' has achieved on the bike. Looks awesome all the same!

 I'm starting to think the only thing steeper for these guys to ride will begin out of the back cargo plane at 20,000 feet.

 Some say the bender range is strong enough to convert even the most hardcore of hartail riders into taking 8 inches in the rear...
