It takes Ella Conolly to make Neil Donoghue look like going at a normal speed rather than being super fast as usual (despite the fact that he still is super fast). That's a compliment for both :). The very best wishes for good luck to Ella for this EWS seasons, looking forward.

@chasking1969 3 года назад

Thanks GMBN for highlighting the shredding skills that Ella and other female riders bring...the entire MTB community benefits from more inclusion. Also for not editing out the parts where things go a bit sideways...it seems many riders only want viewers to see their perfect moments, where Ella's showing the genuine experience...the big sends and the crashes that, at some point, are going to accompany them. Very glad to see her laughing afterward with bike & body still intact! Ella's a super-skilled rider with a great attitude...looking forward to seeing more of her riding and upcoming wins! :)

@chrisridesbicycles 3 года назад

She‘s really cool. I wish I had that confidence. The colour of her bike is great. There should be mir bike colours like that and not only black and grey.

@alexyaremchenko4239 3 года назад

You have missed: ugly green, shitty yellow, pale purple, greyed blue, tasteless blue. For example Nukeproff colors are not pretty bad, but old bikes was with bright colors with great contrast, it was cool to look at that bike. Where bright yellow with black background, orange, red and others have gone? Market really buys only black-white bikes? And now we have borring coloring, but good geometry.

@stevencole7331 3 года назад

I think Enduro riders are still holding back from armoring up their bodies thinking it restricts their movements but it will improve confidence knowing you can push a bit harder with protection . No I can understand the pedal up is not that comfortable with a sufficient amount of protection but I think you can take it off and pack it up with you and put it back on going down hill . Baseball players started putting arm protectors on their lead arm when hitting so to protect it from getting hit from a pitch and with wearing it (which may not be comfortable) helps with protection from serious injury to the arm and gives confidence staying in the batting box with less fear which helps performance . If I went over the bars like she did in the video in my rock infested land It may have been broken bone time for me

@madeiradriftin4429 3 года назад

They do for EWS! the protectors used in EWS are not that different than DH WC just no elbow pads. They are riding at home so more on a chill ride, and the open face pretty sure its GMBN fault for wanting to show face for views and for the interview.

@laurynasjagelo5075 3 года назад

@@madeiradriftin4429 Being from the highlands, I doubt you'll see full faces even on the most gnarly terrain around here, other than FW World track. Reason being is that climbs are usually tough and long, and the woods are dark and hard to see in. In addition, the trails are mainly slow-ish tight tech rather than fast plow-like trails you see in France, Austria etc.

1:50 - 1:56 what is that additional wheel above the chainring and its purpose?

@elliottstreet7687 3 года назад

Called an idler wheel to reduce pedal kickback on a high pivot bike.

@MatthiasMatzeBrandt 3 года назад

The way I understand it, the high pivot on the rear suspension would lead to back kicks from the chain to the pedals and this tries to mitigate that.

@geralddyke4378 Год назад

Great bike , rides smooth ru-vid.comUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L I added a bigger spring loaded seat to it . Takes a bit of adjusting cables to get brakes and shifting to perfect . I've owned quite a few bikes in the past that were absolutely uncomfortable to ride and they always ended up as garage wall decor . I'm not seeing that with this one. It's pretty light I've only ridden it a few miles but I like it . As for the pedals falling off in the other reviews , the pedal arms are aluminum along with the pedal studs look to be also . I would not overtighten them. I can see it would be very easy to overtighten them and strip the threads right off . All in all I think it's pretty good quality besides the aluminum pedal thing .

Half of my family is from Inverness and as they'd say up there... 'Her accent is no more inverness than fly to the moon!'! She clearly wouldn't call a Mug a Meg or a Cup a Cep. Regardless, she's still gained a fan because she is awesome!

@mesabman 2 года назад

I couldn't help but think about the broken elbow she referred to and wonder why she is riding without elbow pads. Helmets, knee pads, and elbow pads should be standard equipment for every rider. Better safe than sorry!
