Hi guys, Remi knows his bike really well tbh and was totally friendly and cool but has just started to learn English. I'm thankful he gave us a quick lowdown!

Even IF Remy didn't know what he was riding it wouldn't matter. Clips in mud like that is another level of crazy. Tippy. Go ask Remy for a 30s ish check in French. I'm sure it would be on point and we all still get the jist of it.

I don't know why but I always get happy whenever a pro is running a certain component that I happen to have

You've got mud too? I thought I was special.

Love Remi. Such a dude!

I could tell you every single part on my bike in 30 seconds - maybe I am obsessive. These pros struggle with the bikes they ride professionally - maybe a language barrier - but is sort of funny to hear them struggle!

I think it's just as you say at the end, the language barrier. Ask me my bike spec and I could give you a full run down, then ask me my bike spec in another language and I'd struggle so so so much. These guys are often helping develop the components they run so know exactly what they're on, language barrier is defo the issue, not their lack of knowledge

I smiled when I saw Remi letting that little kid help push his bike.

Seemed as remi didn't know his own bike, I would like to know what I am riding and trusting will hold together so I get to the bottom safe. Dh tracks are fairly demanding on components.

He knows his bike...but in french! He seems to be like a quite shy guy so when not in his own language, it might be difficult for him to express what he wants to. Glad to see him up top on conditions that he loves for sure!
