  • The fastest World Cup Downhill mountain bike race course of 2019 is here, and it's in Les Gets, France. Today during practice, the DH racers got up to speed incredibly quickly with no shortage of carnage.
    #MTB #DH #downhill
    From 2 - 3pm before timed training, we held the unofficial Vital MTB / Vanzacs #lesgetslongjump contest on a random wooden kicker that is part of the course. In the end, Bruce Klein of Commencal / 100% jumped nearly 90 feet to get $300 out of gordo's pocket. Finn Iles, Laurie Greenland, Brook Macdonald, Loic Bruni, and so many racers gave it their best shot.
    Rachel Atherton ended up going furthest in the women's only to later rupture her Achilles tendon. She is out for the race and most likely the season.

      Older bikes relied a lot more on suspension just to get down the hill, now bikes work so much better with proper geo the bike/rider/suspension can work together and hit things so much harder.

      @TheMrawsome64 5 років тому +2

      debunkthejunk1 yeah the feel of a coil is pretty hard to beat. Consistent as heck, and soaks things up like butter. Only reason not to have one is if you ride flow/jump trails only but even then it really comes down to the suspension layout and design.

      @@ridetheapex the whistles are the marshals. They are to say that there's a rider on track and to make sure the spectators don't choose that moment to cross. It's really important because people would get hit otherwise and in areas like the open, top grass section, the top riders are doing towards 70 kph and almost all riders will be doing upwards of 60 kph. At those speeds, if someone got hit, the rider and whoever got hit would probably be seriously hurt.
