This project came to mind before the COVID-19 pandemic in the summer of 2020. However, when we began assembling all the pieces needed to make it happen, the pandemic erupted, making everything more complicated to achieve.
Dealing with things you've never done is always an improvement. Furthermore, the fact that you couldn't have the supplies you need due to the global pause in the world is another step to overcome.
Composite Doctor learned how to use the phosphorescent glowing coat to apply between the base paint and clear coat finishing, and trust us, it wasn't easy. How cool is a turquoise glow bike that you can't even spot in broad daylight due to its sleek baby blue color?

Our Cannondale Habit was the Waves edition, and we kept the unique graphics on the link, and badge on the headtube as a tribute to the 5010 boys.

We transformed our trail bike into a slopestyle one by swapping out the 12-speed transmission and 29-inch wheelset, using only the parts we trusted enough to shred Andres Biersteker's backyard slopestyle trail. This bike couldn't have been built without the support of Reverse Components, Formula, Michelin, Alugear, and Purebike. Thanks, guys, for the help!

In addition, we used a 300-meter LED strip to light up the trail and a 10-meter tube with 20-meter of red LED strips to create a modern fire circle on the step-down.We needed a lot of batteries to power up all these LED strips in the forest, and thanks to a unique and brightly colored riding kit provided by Relief Equipments, the shooting could finally happen.
We hope you'll enjoy our short mtb night film.
