THE CHEAP BIKE CHALLENGE - WILL THEY SURVIVE?

- The cheap bike challenge! We got bikes from Walmart and pushed them to the limits on urban freeride, sand dunes and mtb riding, but will they survive and who will win?
I had a fun idea while out in California to buy some cheap bikes and see how long they would last. Myself, Lukas Knopf and Marc Diekmann ended up buying cruiser bikes from a Walmart superstore and taking them out in Monterey in search of some MTB trails and urban freeride lines. The challenge was to see who's bike would last the longest and the winner would take home $100, it was all to play for! The spots we found to ride around Monterey were awesome and actually would have been super fun on my real mountain bike but that can happen next time. This trip was all because of my visit to the Sea Otter Classic mountain bike show, so i'm very glad I decided to go. The video was shot on GoPro HERO 7 Black!
I hope you enjoy the video!

Top?

"Eileen stood at the top of the stairs"
Hay Sam ,
Back in the ‘70’s My friends and I all had cheap quill stems growing up , when the bars got stripped and were miles from home we just started riding with our hands closer to the neck. We didn’t let rolling bars destroy our jump time. Stop by a welding shop or scrap yard and let them booger a weld joining the stem and bars drive a bolt through them , if nothing else wrap a roll of electrical/ duct tape around the joint and keep thrashing. GREAT VID !
The cameraman at the end didn't know to point the camera up at the end and Sam had to do it😂
Hanging out with sam seems so much fun! 😅
0:55 the face of the employee when doing a wheelie in d store! 🤣🤣
I was searching for it in the comments xD
@@pwassson1604 me too ;D
Here in Germany he would have been kicked out of the store... man i hate this country!
mildly impressed only thing i think of to describe that face
@@xes2seth Same in an American Walmart if Sam was black, or would even call the cops.
Best intro on a while, cruiser with a monny holder, loved it when you easily and casually popped that “ohhh yeaaa” in the shop on it and it’s just sooo sick watching you having a blast! Incred vid cant wait for next as always
"We would never do such thing "
Lmao
You all deserve the $100.00!!! Those poor little cheap bikes... really funny, sick riding, superior entertainment!!!
Put the playback speed at 0.25x , you can see the frame bend at 10:07 :D
Thanks, Carl!
That's great! But it wouldn't have done that if it had a steel frame.
LOL !!
I want to see them try to return that bike to walmart.
How
you are the gnarliest and at the same time most wholesome biker i've seen on youtube, and i love it man ♥️
spending 118 to win a hundo ? sickening math skills boys 😂
he probably made 500 on the video
karlos Lowry he really only spent 18 dollars though
Steve Bell def made more
That’s why they asked if they could return it
All of u are dumb he goin to return the bike so he made 100
Thanks for being a stand-up dude, having fun on some cheap bikes, and not trying to return that afterwards.
Can't wait to see what y'all do next!
lol, thats awesome!

Duuude you nailed it, its so much fun to look how vital you are with new stoked moves :D and very funny talk, love you mate! Keep doing crazy stuff, big trump up!
BEST biking channel ever!!!!
Loved the vid mah dudes, i was actually LMAOing in my room watching it. You guys had loads of fun :) :)
Please please please continue makin such vids
Would like to see you try to return the bikes! And say I was riding along and the frame just cracked.
Josh Grove i have a KHS full suspension trail bike which pretty much did exactly that.
Never ridden hard, jumped etc, just some dirt tracks. And not much of that. Annnd cracked thru the rear shock mount.
Of course the importer didnt want to know about it...
Walmart is fine with that. Now, try returning a $6000 bike to a hipster bike shop when it breaks for no reason.
Mate...I'm in my late 40's and still get inspired to go out n ride after watching your vid's.......Quality...!!
4:00 Close your eyes and listen until around 4:28. Golden.
Damn
I guess it stills shows it's the awesomeness of the rider because I even imagine so much could be done with a cruiser bike let alone a walmart bike. Was fun to watch.
5:21 that’s me trying to get home from school.
All that s been going through my head today is ABBA dancing queen and it's crack a monny o clock wheeyyyy😂😂
0:51 The impressed look on the employees face 😂
Off season, nice. That square is packed during tourist season.
Love the cheap bike vids 🔥🔥👍
These video series with the boys have been so much fun!! I loved it. #gefährlich 🤣

Ik its a joke but it don't make sense it should be buy a tooth?
As it should be "doesn't" or "does not".🙄
A yes my favourite sentence "buy a teeth
@@phukyu1491 doesn't buy a bike?
Man that was excellent! Loved it. Do these again bro
that bomb drop was insane! he deserved the 100 bucks just for doing it haha
5:11 “Scenic wheelie....ah, what a scene” 😂 dunno why but that cracked me up
You should do a SloMo of the bomb drop, I wanna see the frame bending as he hits the slope!! 😂 that was hilarious
You shouldve taken that cruiser frame and made a mad klunker out of it, would be sick to see you ride one of those on some hard trails
Sam:"Yeah we would never do such things"
Also Sam:"Just turned up at the first spot which is this HUUUUGE sand dune!"
Everybody gangsta till sam pull up... Rockin with the whoo
guys face at 0:54 is an understatement 🤘🏾
Ikr
4:27 is the coolest shots shots I’ve ever seen!
1:12 "Oh yeah we'd never do such things..." LoLoL
Mr. Pilgrim, YOU ARE A BEAST!!!!!!
We need a slo mo of Lukas’s bike frame bending😂🤙🤙
It actually happened on the g-out transitioning from the slope to the sidewalk, before he hit the fence. Freeze frame at 10:09 right before his front tire goes onto the grass, and you can see it's already bent.
Click on the three vertical dots in the upper right if you are on IPhone. Select from “Playback Speed”, 0.25
@@jrowe9301 wow 2 years ago, mad haha
Honestly you have the best videos.
kevCentral would love this
TomHolmez12 if Sam was in Alabama he should have seen his Walmart Bike collection
I love cheap bike challenges, Please make more😁😁🤘
i think lukas deserves the 100 for that attempt, glad hes okay lol
I like how Sam is talking about how loose his bars and and then say, "But" as if he is going to say, "I have this wrench here...." but is like, " I found this trials line...." LoL... that will fix everyhting.
"Yeh, no, we'd never do such things" 😂
So sick!!! Always liking your videos dawwwg keep it up. Every bike needs a monnie holder
Nobody:
Sam pilgrim: that’s so good!
That was hilarious guys! Thank you for that.
Very nice video
This was so much fun to watch
YES SAM. We have been waiting for you to get a cheap bike
That was a sick vid can’t wait to see more!!
Sam:(every single stair set he sees) “Stair set of DOOOM!”
Look at that guys face when Sam is doing a wheelie at 55 seconds
This is like watching Max, Ian, and Joji on bikes.
Bars down best Walmart bike video EVER! The cardboard in the front wheel is proof 26 AIN'T dead and that scenic wheelie was more like a SEALIE! Shoulda hit those bars with a brick! Woulda had them sorted : )
Glad you liked it dude!!
3:50 Slow motion Monny shot
This dude is enlightened. Im telling you. He is a modern time saint.
You should have tried to return the bikes. I'd like to see their faces
No they shouldn't. These bikes are specifically priced to cater to poorer families that can't afford a £2000 mountain bike. All these UA-camrs wrecking cheap bikes then taking them back is putting the price up for the people that can't afford to pay more. Not to mention all the other sheep that are now doing the "walmart bike challenge" because their favourite UA-camr did it.
@@noire1001 but somehow it seems like everybody can afford a 1000$ iPhone.
@@a.wolfgang6423 I don't know what makes it seem like that to you, but that certainly isn't the case. The majority of people have far cheaper phones.
tok is dead no reason not to buy a secondhand nice old bike. Far better quality and similar price. Also you are putting an old bike back on the road/trail which reduces waste. It’s a win/win
@@noire1001 walmart wouldn't be hurt by losing money on 3 bikes so why would it be a big deal to return them
This was Rad video! Like always!
I watched Lukas s video too
i love this kind of videos
1:12 LMAO
Do more of these Walmart bike challenges.
You should do a challenge video of who could return their bike for full refund.
LOVE THIS GUY
If it's not Pil's approved .. DON't buy it ... Lmao :-P
Cheers !!!
id give that 100$ to lucas any day, full commitment. bro absolutely sent it.
Sam u met Seth and Phil at that bike thing
Hey Sam! I think you could well do a hollywood feature film on your escapades. 😁 There are so many cool little thing in your videos. Like the Seals hanging out. The Sand hill. Manual down the isle in Walmart. "Oh no we would never ride them like that." HAHAHA
Your video is not shot 100% on GoPro. You use a bunch of other camera's
Sam your a legend, one of my fav youtuber to watch. thanks for the awesome content brother
scott cook thanks man!!
Mad. But brilliant. Keep up the good videos lads.
Love those challenges
This is better then other videos

Dude, I grew up in marina messing up on those sand dunes!
So fun!
