Video: 16-Year-Old Jack Neff Rides His Bowhead Bike Every Day in Bend, Oregon

 You had an opportunity in your comment to bring "positive exposure" to some of these riders and instead chose to be negative about an awesome story and an awesome kid having an awesome time. That's not what this is about and I think that's not what you're likely about.

 @wyorider I’m fairly anti-e-bike but shaming people who can’t even use their legs for wanting to get out on the bike trails with their friends is pretty f*cking low.

 What in TF are you talking about? Why TF are you shaming disabled riders?

 Ada classifies mobility device as anything the disabled person sees suitable for mobility. It is not a new thing. Adaptive rigs have had assists for a long time. You need psychiatric help my dude.

 There was literally an article about Grant Allen the other day

 Everyone who uses the word "problematic" is a complete clown. I've never ever read a post that includes "XXXXX is problematic for XXXXX reason" and then thought, "yes, here is a reasonable and rational person who has an all-encompassing view of the world and can lead us to a better place."

It's always some holier-than-thou twat saying something nonsensical.

 You need to reevaluate your life dude

 Wish you you never need one

 @ridedigrepeat: you don't find the amount of bowhead "content" recently a little weird.

 @bok-CZ: same.

 Anyone with a bowhead, welcome to the mountain bike conversation. We are glad you are here and happy to read articles about your bikes and your rides. Please ignore this guy.

 @krhaack: take that tin foil hat off and get outside

 @krhaack: god forbid people with disabilities see themselves represented regularly...

The heck is wrong with you.

 @ridedigrepeat: seriously, even most anti e-bike riders would admit that if there was ever a time and place for a motor on a mtb trail this would be it.

 @sino428: I'm not even anti e-bike. I'm not anti bowhead either but bending the classification of what is and isn't a bicycle bothers me. Everyone should be able to play in the woods however they want to. I'm glad there is a sweet vehicle to rip around on for disabled people but I don't want to see ads for it every other day on pinkbike because it's only a matter of time before they are trying to sell them to everyone.

 @krhaack: don't click on something you don't like then. Problem solved.

 @BalfaPleaseComeBack: I like to voice my opinion when I have one.

 @BalfaPleaseComeBack: don't comment on something you don't like.

 @krhaack: don't be a dick for attention. Oh wait. Too late

 @BalfaPleaseComeBack: it work everything doe

 @BalfaPleaseComeBack: every time*

 @krhaack: you don't understand this subject well enough to have such an opinion. Americans with disabilities act ADA provides protection for any disabled person to choose a powered mobility device (PMD) or an other powered mobility device (opmd) that suits them. This includes power chairs, segways, adaptive bikes and anything else the disabled person finds as suitable for their mobility. The only places this isn't in effect is on federal lands with pre existing policies, and frankly the rangers love seeing the trails get used by people. I ride with a friend on a trike regularly and we regularly run into ass hats like you who want to cut down my friend for using a motor. The man lost the use of his f*ckING LEGS and got back on a bike and you think your perspective or opinion have any value? Shame on you, and shame on your entire value structure and the people in your life who treated you in a way that makes you think it's acceptable to hate on wheelchair content. You can take your opinion about this article, and any other article about OPMD'S, wheelchairs, Adaptive riders and shove it up your ignorant, arogant a*shole. DICK HEAD

 @PtDiddy: yeah, come ride with US!!

 @jimmyricard: I have said nothing about disabled people. I think you are projecting your own feelings of them onto me and I hope you can learn to accept people.

 @krhaack: your first comment called this ‘another go kart advertisement’.

You made fun of the bikes disabled people ride by calling them go karts, and you dismissed their story by referring to the post as nothing more than an advertisement.

 @sino428: it is an advertisement abd those are not bikes. All of that should be fine though as the Americans with Disabilities Act provides protection for any disabled person to choose a powered mobility device that suits them.

 @krhaack: all mountain bike content is an advertisement in some form. This is no different than any other edit.

Do you comment ‘just another bike advertisement’ on every sponsored video pinkbike posts? No, you went out of your way to do it on this one and completely dismiss the story that went along with it.

 What's wrong with a bike advertisement on a mountain bike website?

 @krhaack: I think part of the problem is your looking at the Bowhead Reach like you are never going to need one. That you are never going to get injured, whether through sports, auto accident, work place or come down with some disease that effects your mobility. If your luck ever runs out you’ll be incredibly happy that there are bikes like this to get you back out in the woods riding with your buddies.

 @bctaco: no I'm very aware of the possibility of not being able to ride a bike. I'm also glad these things exist and it does look fun to ride, but it's not a bike. They have already tried to advertise these things as more than just for the disabled. I don't think I could be more clear that I don't have any problem with people with Disabilities riding whatever they want.
