 It's tasty how the glint is fake.
  • + 13
 Just noise!
  • + 35
 Why did he put that glare affect on?? Quite annoying.
  • + 2
 Great riding, yet so cruel in the fact that I know I'll never get to ride these trails again
  • + 8
 What a waste of epic footage....
  • + 10
 Wow, music was not for me...riding was good, but that glint...ugh....kind of annoying..actually..definitely annoying

 That's the beautiful thing about self-expression. It's just that.

 Just mute the video and put your own music on=amazing
  • + 1
 it is actually spoilt by the music section.i turned the volume off.VOD!
  • + 1
 hmm, I wasn't aware that the Aurum has Diamond encrusted rims...
  • + 30
 are you kidding me? how this can be VOD with that ridiculously tasteless glare effect??? or is it an commercial kind of VOD???
  • + 8
 Agreed, it looks like a horrible, cheesy, american commercial.
  • + 5
 yep - same here...that video has definitely not the vod-value. not good in my opinion.
  • + 3
 Definitely a commercial type VOD without a doubt... there was a review of the bike, full spread on the Home Page about 10 days ago, with this video inside the review
  • + 0
 You shouldn't be so worried about which video is VOD. It's not that important really.
  • + 13
 had to mute it
  • + 8
 NIN for the win. Sometimes you got edit a video with music that you like and not think about if it is popular.
  • + 8
 How is it that people don't like Nine Inch Nails?
  • + 5
 Its not to everyone's taste in music!
  • + 5
 Yeah zynx... I am imagining that those badmouthing the song choice are the same that find american idol and all of the talent shows to be wholesome quality programming... damned robots
  • + 4
 Just because I'm not a NIN fan doesn't mean I have bad taste in music or own every Lady Gaga album (actually the thought of that makes me vomit a little in my mouth). I just find it a little discordant and noisy. Plus Trent Reznor's voice annoys me.
  • + 1
 that and the filter
  • + 2
 because they're all accustomed to that horrible thing called "dubstep"
  • + 2
 Does this mean I have to choose between NIN and dubstep? Because I really hope there are other choices...
  • + 2
 or mute , and play your own choice of music when the sh*t hits the fan I guess Razz
  • + 1
 good band not the song you'd use to introduce people to NIN. Trent Reznor is amazing. Awesome bike btw, want one. Shiny glinting wheels effect was awful!"
  • + 7
 Norco have a winner with the Aurum...can't wait to read the review !!!
  • + 18
 Horrid music and the shiny effects on the wheels at points is so dump!!
  • + 1
 Its a star filter on the lens. Made me laugh when I noticed it though lol
  • + 5
 I think we need to think about what the song is saying, and what happened to the trails out at North Fork. Nice edit Brad...
  • + 6
 the new norcos are so nice
  • + 4
 shredding it up too bad about those trails,thats a trail ender ride if iv ever seen one ,nice edit Salute
  • + 3
 There's a whole lot of awesome going on here. NIN = Awesome. Riding = Awesome. Some glittery special effects = Awesome. Clean and tight edit sync'd to the music = AWESOME.

 Brilliant video,faved it before watching it,but the music is just terrible,i would have chosen a quiter,slower song for it.VOD!
  • + 5
 d'oh, i guess I thought the opposite, felt the music went well with the frantic edit, but then again i'm a NIN fan at heart Smile Funny, looks like there are others who hated the music Frown I still applaud the effort for doing something that is different, and special props for not using the typical dubstep track.
  • + 4
 you just really made me want to buy one of those. also those trails look soooo prime, oh man!
  • + 5
 Nice to see a vod without dubstep for once!
  • + 1
 I wish governments would just leave us alone we get the same crap in England from forestry commission shutting down trials or digging them up. That aside I liked the video great work brad all your videos are different and I like that about them.

 RIP North Fork. Love those trails.
  • + 1
 Those woods look mega.. why RIP? Have they died?
  • + 1
 The trail network was chainsawed and dug up by the US government earlier this year.
  • + 3
 because 'murica feeds on the tears of its citizens
  • + 1
 The US Government is retarded, they talk about trying to get people off the couch and doing something active. Then they decide that the activities are illegal and life-threateningly dangerous. And I shouldn't just point fingers at the US, all the First World is like that. Its just stupid.

 Good footage. Crap editing!

 how can you say that?!

 There was an awful noise the whole way through, there was this fake shine the whole way through and I just didn't find it flowed together very nicely.
  • + 0
 well yes but it is brad walton, it's still a work of art despite the shitty music and weird shine
