What do you think of Rich's setup? Is it World Cup-worthy? 🌍🏆 Let us know in the comments! 👇

@rip.tear. 11 месяцев назад

Seems like a hardtail might have helped a bit with the gnarly climbs?

@Paganiproductions84 11 месяцев назад

i think a hardtail would be better for the climbing

@Magoo71 11 месяцев назад

Thanks for the run down Rich! Like all your gear except for that saddle....looks uncomfortable as hell....but I guess if it's made to fit your sit bones it works...Thanks for all the bike kit tips!!!

@TheAngryHusky 11 месяцев назад

I just picked up the F-Podium DC-R. Love it so far.

@Mockle07 11 месяцев назад

What were you riding before? I’m curious how it might compare. I’m weighing up an F-Podium DC and an Epic Evo.

@LaurentiusTriarius 11 месяцев назад

A 100km, mostly climbing. That's hell on earth 😂

@steveherring8494 11 месяцев назад

did you see rich's ride in arizona?

@Paganiproductions84 11 месяцев назад

Why did not pick your Orbea Oiz

@raphaelwolff8205 11 месяцев назад

Rich great set up mate,nice bike and well thought out with spares on board.

@tomhiscox9683 11 месяцев назад

@KevinT3141 11 месяцев назад

Very styling; the jersey, socks, and glasses looked great together. And the bike? Well, I can dream...

@nickhumby7601 11 месяцев назад

Having watched the other video (of the event) I wonder if Rich might have been better with a 32t or even a 30t chainring. Also it would be good to know how much food and drink he got through as at the food check in the other video didn’t look like anywhere near enough for an 8hr day and one bottle on the bike doesn’t seem enough unless you are going to stop every hour to refill. But nevertheless, great job out there Rich, it looked brutal

@dsjimmy1 11 месяцев назад

Hi Rich, Mid pocket used for mini pump, tool etc. but how about food like bars and gels in the side pockets? I'd like to know what you downed in calories during your ride.

@davehorne4329 11 месяцев назад

I use the Granite stash system, multi tool im my headset and chain tool and tyre insert tool with plugs im either side of the bars. I have a CO2 system, micropump and a similar tyre lever/ chainlink tool with power link strapped to my top tube

@pieterretief730 11 месяцев назад

It's probably been said before, but the haircut looks spot on! Good choice.

@fjodorgrigorow3851 11 месяцев назад

Hello Rich, sorry that I did not hear the overall weight of the bike. How much was that? Thank you!!

@notpablo8369 11 месяцев назад

Wished the frame could fit 2 bottles even if its only 600ml

@KoenMiseur 11 месяцев назад

Rich, that multitool also has quicklink splitter (if it's the PT30)

@PepsFTW 11 месяцев назад

I use a comfortable saddle on my HT, so I don't need cushy pants. Ergon SM E-Mountain Core Prime Men is made for long rides in the saddle, as it is designed with E-mtb in mind.

@ivostarmans1199 11 месяцев назад

Great effort💪only you needed to ride 400m more before uploading to strava

@soundwarper 11 месяцев назад

Genuinely interesting! 👊😁

@cosminandrei6456 11 месяцев назад

it would be interesting to actually hear a few words of how this fares compared to Rich's older oiz :) i think it actually comes down to these kind of decesions when we're about to put our money on the table so I would really appreciate to hear some first hand impressions from someone who rode both of them in serious racing conditions :) thx!

@34mth 11 месяцев назад

I love the setup. Thinking minimalistic is the way to go, however no body protection? Why not, what was the reasoning to leave it behind. Especially seeing the rocky and fast downhill parts of the track

@ondrejjanoska660 11 месяцев назад

I would love to also a little bit more affordable parts in these videos …. I mean if you count the price of the parts it is almost downpayment for a house. You should be able to get 99% of performance for half the price.

@Whitewater11 11 месяцев назад

Where did you mount the Tubi Master? I'm looking at purchasing one of these but don't think it will work well on my dropper post

@krisqz 11 месяцев назад

Why not OIZ?

@gazza70cr 11 месяцев назад

I was just wondering if all of the stress put on a rider from pushing yourself in these long rides would make your hair fall out?

@recuperacion420 11 месяцев назад

Super nice bike. Nothing to change. Id put short bar ends on it.

@wanderer2246 11 месяцев назад

I thought it will be a service check, like verifying that everything is in working condition. Like you probably do between the races.

@dev-on-bike 4 месяца назад

It definitely present better cleaned up, Mondraker didn't pay for this? ;)

@steveherring8494 11 месяцев назад

hi rich, i didn't think u were that tall. have u gotten over arizona yet?

@TeeLingFoo 11 месяцев назад

Bring 2 bags, one for tools and the other for essentials like water, first aid kit, raincoats

@Gidogeek 11 месяцев назад

Which wheels are these ? they don't look like the Zipp 3zero moto

@KVaGer 11 месяцев назад

These topeak tire levers look nice, but I totally smashed them right on the first use( still usable, but slightly deformed since then... They should've not place those thin parts where lever can contact with a rim

@simonm1447 10 месяцев назад

Schwalbe makes good tire levers

@drewbarrow5670 11 месяцев назад

It's not a bike for xc marathon, especially for one with mostly climbing. Too aggressive, i.e. weighty tires, overkill suspension and so on. What is it for?

@Mockle07 11 месяцев назад

Overkill suspension? It is literally XC suspension and plenty of people do Marathon races on full suspension XC bikes… what on Earth are you on about?

@drewbarrow5670 11 месяцев назад

@@Mockle07120 mm upfront is too much for XC. Even for short races, more so for marathons. I would choose something like the Trek Supercaliber with 60/100mm rear/front travel and overall weight about 10 kg. Or rather a hardtail. Modern fad for long travel and fullsus has gone too far. It's ok to ride such marathons just on a hardtail. As far as I remember Blake rode mega avalanche on a hadtail, where it's all the way down, no climbing. Here to ride the mondraker mostly uphill and mostly on smooth gravel is hilarious.

@Mockle07 11 месяцев назад

@@drewbarrow5670 Then you should probably let Nino and the others know then, as many pro XCO riders’ bikes are now 120 front and rear… If you actually watched the video, Rich explains clearly why he went for the spec he did and it makes perfect sense. He was there to complete the course, not trying to win, so comfort and capability trump outright speed. Plus, with the three stage lockout you get best of both worlds. Blake doing the Mega was a challenge - he was doing it to prove it was possible, not because it was “right”. He also hadn’t had to do several thousand feet of climbing beforehand. You COULD get down many WC DH tracks on an XC bike but that doesn’t mean you should, or it is the right bike for the job.

@drewbarrow5670 11 месяцев назад

@@Mockle07Nino ride what his sponsors give to him, what they want to be promoted. And those of XCO are short races, while the marathon is long and demanding for endurance. So lightweight bike is a must. Yes, Rich explained his choice, but it doesn't make any sense. In order to complete the course one have to have the type of bike, which don't waste too much energy. Especially it counts on the climbs. I don't talk about speed, I talk about rational employment rider's energy. To pull that weighty fullsus with chubby tiers upwards is insane. You talk about comfort? What comfort is it to push the heavy bike uphill? Don't see any!

@Mockle07 11 месяцев назад

@@drewbarrow5670 If you don’t think Nino (and all the others) have any say in their set up then you are insane. If Nino didn’t want the bike to have a certain amount of travel, it wouldn’t. You do realise Rich is an ex pro, and has completed many XC races before… and at GMBN he has access to a multitude of bikes and parts etc. The vast majority of the other riders were also riding full suspension bikes and I’d be willing to bet many of those were 110/120, because (again, as it says in the video) there were some chunky, technical sections… being that it’s in the mountains… and having the extra travel isolates you from the chatter etc when you need, thus preserving energy, but using the pedal mode on the suspension gives you the climbing platform. It’s really not that hard to understand. Pedalling a hard tail, up or downhill, through rocky sections with square edges etc absolutely saps your energy - I ride a hardtail more than my FS so I speak from experience. The fact that you think you know better than professional riders and teams speaks volumes, I hope you have a long list of XC and/or marathon race wins to draw these opinions from. EDIT - btw, I have just watched some Cape Epic bike checks where they also were all on full suspension bikes with 110-120mm travel. The bikes all weighed around/over 11kg too… so again, perhaps the pro riders and teams have got that wrong too - you’d make a killing as a team advisor!

@torstenfrank1856 11 месяцев назад

inner frame triangle waste of space and that lockout cable routing is years back and appalling. But I guess for an mtb'er quite a lot is acceptable even in 2023 🙈😅 Also talking about trail casing just in terms of added weight and not rolling resistance. As If it was an Enduro or Downhill event and not something where you have to pedal for the distance and for the total climbing meters... Flame as you want... ;-)
