Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 лип 2018
- The Privateer needs to get his bike dialed in, so Steve from Vorsprung suspension has been drafted in help Adam set his bike up for optimal performance. With the bike also accepting both wheel sizes, Adam makes the decision on which will be best come race day.
He's also back in the gym under the supervision of Todd to check in on how his fitness and strength are coming along. Having put in months of work, what gains will Adam be seeing?

One of the best series on UA-cam right now. Really enjoying these.
Best show ever! Please go all geeky and technical on all aspects. Like what tires, what exercises, etc and why? Keep it up! Love the show more when we see more energy from him.
I was overly critical before. You made good progression. Your getting closer to beast mode. Steve is smart. Guys know where the bodies are buried.
Great series!🤟
The kid in the background at 10:50 lol
Love that I’m getting in to the sport and this is really helping my personal drive and motivation
11:30 When you go in for a fist bump and sensei gives you a finger......bow to your SENSEI!

Anyone know how Adam did in the last event.
What is the schedule for the next episode?
awesome series,,
this is sooo good
Fun vid. Maybe a few lessons on rowing technique will help those numbers improve.
That commentary though "You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension: a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You’re moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You’ve just crossed over into… the Privateer Zone"
Inspiring, very.
he sent it
He is a insane rider and got pro everything he deserves it
We want more and more frequent content please! :-)
he looks so much fitter than in the beginning, crazy!
How about the Concept2 Wattage tests? Right on.
I love this show.
More More MOre!
how about sharing the power testing protocol that Adam is doing? (also, loving the series. also, first time caller, long time listener).
"you are done" feels good and bad in the same time :)
yeahhhh
That fork pressure tuning at 7:45 was soooo revealing! That next clip’s ride looked so smooth!
He is so good rider
Once you go 29, hard to go back :)
Please tell me what the BB height is after going to 170mm fork with 27.5!!! I have a Genius as well and am thinking about doing the same. Also, what is the bar height after moving to 170mm fork?
how much is longer the fork suspension? 160mm?
so you have 150mm travel rear and 170mm travel fork?
Using a Shockwiz could have saved hours of guessing...
His trainer could pass as Kyle Brotherson's brother from dirtbike channel
He really sounds like Brendan Fairclough
where can i find todd's website it would be sick to train with him
Does anybody here have any experience with XTC suspension forks? I am looking to get into Mountain biking again after 20 years and I was looking at a bicycle with XTC front fork which has a suspension lockout switch on the handle bars. It also had Shimano Hydraulic disk brakes and Shimano Deore gearing. It had Shimano quickshift shifters too and 27.5" wheels. It would be a basis for a starter bike which I would upgrade over time. I cant remember the make of the bike but I think she said it was a spanish company.
Anyway the fork. If anybody has experience with XTC fork what is it like. The one I was looking at has preload. I forgot to check for rebound adjustment.
Adam: You have to fight more with the little wheels whereas this i wasn't getting thrown around as much.
Mechanic: At least one more lap.
Adam: crashes!
Me (us?): HAHAHAHA yeah right... ¬¬
He even just looks healthier
he should just dope
@Alex 🤣
Look at the kid at10:47 trying to use rubber bands
Is it just me or is his voice similar the Brendog's?
Yeah it does!!
27.5 to 29 = jeep wrangler to a lifted land rover
The suspension dude looks and acts a lot like Christian Bale
the guy looks like david beckham
How do I rent Steve for the day?
Whens the next episode ?
Coming soon!
I know he’s not a rower but his erging technique needs work. His numbers will improve.
those handle bars...smh
All of this brand support and he doesn't have gloves? No wonder your arms are feeling tired. Having to gorilla grip the bars in wet conditions probably doesn't help. Someone get this man some gloves!
Can anyone hook me with some upgrades ;v
How can someone be given this opportunity and be "serious" and then when working with a suspension expert not even have a clue as to his suspension setup and waste that persons time like that. Won't even touch his BS comment about "wagon wheels" :-\
Sarcasm? Must have missed that, Adam seemed very certain there were no volume spacers in his fork, so why would Steve not believe him. What he should have said was, "I'm not sure, I got the fork and just bolted it on, don't have a clue" then Steve would have known what he was dealing with.
If you were referring to the "wagon wheels" comment, it certainly did not seem he was trying to be funny or sarcastic.
Dude, relax. Ride your bike.
Pinkbike haha fucking roasted
He conflated the obviously sarcastic 29-er comment with Adam not realizing there were tokens in the fork, so he was off base from the start. We all make shit comments now and then. Being critical and wrong will get a corrective response. I hope he takes it as a lesson and not a big deal, just a reality check.
LOL... Punter detected.
