4 of the Coolest DH Bikes at Sea Otter 2017 - Video

 Was that Sworks demo Aluminum?

 @tacoma73: you know that not a single pro rider uses his big DH bike. Most are on their 29er Trailbikes...

 Guys, it's been long enough with the D'bag "not a real DH course" or "lame DH course" with the Sea Otter. The race NEVER billed itself as a full bore Word Cup DH course. It's an annual bike festival for the fun of biking at a Rad location (Laguna Seca Raceway). It celebrates our love of all things bikes with light-heated fun weekend. A chance for the US fans and vendors to kick off the bike riding season. It's not at a ski resort.... everyone KNOWS it's just a quick run down one of the local hills. f*ck all this lame ass negativity. For f*cks sake, be happy about something change. Pinkbike comments are going downhill fast.

 It isn't surprising that people comment on the venue being lame when the venue is lame. To me it seems like the NASCAR of mountain biking. It's so big that it has self-sustaining momentum and the shear scale makes it fun. But otherwise it would never be popular. I can think of very few places more boring to hold a media event for publicizing mountain bike products.

 It's as if he's into bikes. Who would have guessed :/

 I am kind of disappointed it wasn't a dude with a massive fro, my mind image was way off.

 @smuggly: haha were you picturing Troy Lee as Bob Ross or something? "And then we'll just put a little pin stripe here... and here. Oh, that ones a little crooked. That's okay though, it's just a happy accident".

 Winner

 Stop being so negative

 Good game for first dates(u drink to get thru it)and/or when doing a double date, ur friend drinks when his chick says like and vice versa.
Just dont plan on driving after.

 I don't know what you're like talking about, like i have no idea.

 They have a sick black n silver but unfortunately its the low spec frame so we dont c em.

 Hideous, especially with those rims.

 They're trying so hard to be mainstream and be a "big" bike brand with Spesh, Trek and Giant, but they just don't seem to have gotten the memo that they aren't.

 We need Tippie doing a POV video with scissors or clippers sneaking up to chop that thing off. All with scary music playing.

 Yeah dude, let's make fun of a haircut.

 @dualsuspensiondave: u must be new..mullets, man buns, combovers, modified combovers with a shaved part, 90s spikes, ....so much good stuff to laugh at.
Im the curly haired surfer dude so im totally hip too..lol

 its pretty dope

 Their marketing department is.

 @fercho25: So's their legal department I hear

 Are any of these really that cool? Maybe the intense? But it's so garish and retina searing. A downhill bike that started the "looks like a session" how many years ago? A mail order cheap downhill bike. At least the Specialized has some cool paint and would be something you'd be less likely to see in the wild.

 @bonfire: I agree. Just because you have a fancy paint job doesn't mean it's the coolest bike at the show. Where's the innovation? The ideas and creativity? I know those kinds bikes are there at sea otter, I just don't get why every article every single year is some "cool" painted same old specialEd or intense.

 @DownHooligan: I hear they're bitchin'.

 @fercho25: "the demo is what 3 years now and is the same bike."

So, you're saying they got it right the first time? Cool. :p

 @tacoma73: yes thats why Gwin had to change the geometry so much.

 Yeah, what a total a-hole. How dare his company make clothing you didn't like back in the day. It's almost as if the guy forced you to buy it. Guy is a total jerk showing his support to the biking community for the past 20-30 years. He did bring jet ski culture to us mountain bikers after all.

 Man, I wish @troyleedesigns only charged $80 today to paint my helmet :-)

 @hetfield1: You really read a lot into my comment. I didn't cal him an "a-hole", I just said his trashy aesthetic really took over for a while, but I like the more classy, retro direction he's gone in the last few years. You're bringing character into it, not me.

 Wish I could up-vote more.

 @torero: the bike is sick and unique!!
