- When it comes to Snowbikes, there are many questions that remain unanswered.

Though the concept of snow bikes has been around for decades, it wasn’t until the last few seasons that the sport started to progress to the high-level we’re seeing today. The limits are being pushed further and further with each season seeing bigger lines, jumps and new terrain explored. At the tail-end of the 2017 season, a crew of legends set out over the course of a few weeks to shred terrain both old and new and created a four-part series called ‘Powder Hounds.’
All-time conditions strike in the series finale as Reagan Seig, Darren Berrecloth, Robbie Maddison and Brock Buttars throw down in the steep backcountry bowls and chutes of British Columbia. Claw uses his MTB skills to shred unique lines while Maddo comes into his own as a snowbike rider.

Amazing guys, scenery and riding! Great series RedBull
Thanks! Here are more motorsport documentaries for you: win.gs/motorsportdocumentaries
Omg the view. What a Epic series! More. More. More of this!
So you want more? 😜 Well, here is it: win.gs/motorsportdocumentaries
Amazing !! Great video
Great job guys!
This looks so epic well done lads
So sick what gloves are you guys wearing they look warm and I need them
Snowbikes = 🔥 sick video Red Bull
Snowbikes are on 🔥!
Wow! This video was awesome. Today is my happy day cuz I got nukeproof knee protectors. I love them.
This is so nice
For everybody who is asking, you are pretty much 3/4 throttle at all times. We change the oil after every 5 rides. Top end pretty much every 2 years.
It always sounds like the bike is struggling so hard. I don't even own one but I'm looking at big bore kits.
I have to imagine those track setups and the snow would rod a fair amount of power.
Tough life those guys live...ha ha just being sardonic , these guys are living the dream. I use to race Moto-cross back in the 80’s and would love to try one of these awesome snow bikes. Wonder how a 1995 CR 500 would be with a conversion, I see they’re all 4 strokers. Must need a lot of low end torque in that deep pow pow.
Sick! Dudes 🤙🏼💯
That looks so fun I wish I can do that
What size sleds are these? 129 or 137?
You must have these bikes pinned and dumping the clutch all day . How are the engines holding up ?
Snowbikes are amazing :)
Another problem with these Snowbikes, besides the power, is the price; You can buy a pretty decent second hand snowmobile for about half the price of a decent snowbike kit, and that's if you already have a dirtbike to put it on. If you have to buy a bike too, you're looking at least a $10,000 investment with a second hand dirtbike, and you can buy a hell of a nice sled for 10k. Or buy a decent used one for ~3k and spend 2k on mods and maintenance and have something way more capable for half the price of a snowbike.
Dabby DeVito yah but... snowbike
But you can also ride that bike 4 seasons out of the year. And it would seem like there is a lack of power but thats just not really how they operate. It is slow but they can crawl through most anything due to the angle of the track. Not saying your points aren't valid, however for 10k you get a bike for 4 seasons or a sled for 1.
Did you just say a sled is more capable than a Snowbike? Did we watch the same video?
Very nice
Trop bien la chaîne rend Bull 😊😊😊
Has anyone ever used a maico 700 2 stroke as a snow bike? A built banshee swap would work well too. I would imagine these tracks and plowing through snow soaks up a massive amount of power
Question for riders What make more fun: Snowbike or MX ? Nice tricks :D
Hopefully you have a beacon with you
HomeAutomationX probsbly safe to say they do
HomeAutomationX
oh did someone just learn what a beacon was? of course they do moron.
Pretty sure the point of the statement was that they don't seem to even consider avalanches. Traversing wind blown, wide open faces like it's no big deal.
@@chriswhusker when it comes to winter backcountry sports, theres always that risk. It's something we all accept, we've all lost friends which is why the avalanche safety technology has advanced so much. Im not saying it's a full proof plan but it all helps. We live the lives we live and we wouldn't be livin u less we were doing this. Im not saying it's an excuse or reason for ppl to enter the backcountry, butttt you ain't livin unless your almost dyin.
This video, which is on Red Bull’s channel, contains product placement; whodathunkit.
they seem a little too casual about avalanches
I'm better than them go watch my newest vid ua-cam.com/video/itUXRROmdKQ/v-deo.html
Gps locater and small oxegen canisters.. in case of avalanche
With the Red Bull film crew I bet they have someone looking after snow safety. Looks pretty stable and they are probably aware of the conditions. Sieg is no mountain rookie.
@@garymiddleton607 looks? you sound foolish
@@philiphann9313 maybe to you, but rest assured I don’t put much stock in that. I would bet, though, that the things I typed about that particular situation are true, so whatever. As for myself, I have taken AST courses a few times. Practice with my beacon, and don’t go into the back country without a certified guide. You sound like someone looking for something to say.
SENT !!!!!!!!!!!!!! AWESOME
Solid riding buddies are key
Where is this recorded?
Do they make a sled kit for my 71 Sportster?
TO THE VIDEO EDITOR: those talking heads cost you royalties. you need to have solid chunks of uninterrupted footage (at least 30 seconds) so that it can be edited easily for commercial use (i.e. with redbull affiliates who need silent footage).
how long is the track on the snowbikes?
Go on timbersleds website, all the info you need is there.
I loveee red bulllll
RIP the wild ...
Toujour aussi bien sa change pas
I love what he calls a minor fix...
3:17 moments like this suck when you realize there’s nowhere to land.
Cool
I want more videos with Jason Paul plsssd
Red bulll you are the best
At the very least.. don't send 2riders down a chute at once. In case you have an issue u only have to look for one guy, one extra rescuer as well, be careful boys!!!
I got to have one
i wish i had one.. but there WAY TO EXPENSIVE. for the price i would rather go buy a new bike
My imagine its to have a club of red bull this bicycles of dirt jumps and downhill
Mountain Flipers Can that be translated into English?
Też taki chcę! :-)
They should get a 2 stroke 250 or 500 and that thing would shred
Must be rough.. wear a back pack, pack your lunch lol
Wooooo!!!!
Your bike needs a snowmobile engine stat!
A maico 700 would get it done. No engine swap needed, do a torque port and rip
put a sled motor on the bike
What's with these guys acting all serious and philosophical? You're riding toys in the snow, quit trying to make it more important than it really is.
-this video contains product placement-
5 seconds in... ADIDAS! HUSQVARNA! RED BULL! TIMBERSLED!
I SUDDENLY HAVE A LARGE URGE TO BUY ALL THEIR PRODUCTS!!! YAY!
not even a backflip? its all powder
2enjoihsu yea I used to say the same! Tons of factors limit that being able to be done. The bike is ridiculously rear heavy which makes getting full rotation almost impossible. Now same with snowmobiles the rear belt/track drive system is forward propulsion instead of rotational propulsion you get with a wheel. The only way to get a snowmobile to backflip is a steep kicker jump where quarter of the rotation is already completed before airborne, same for snowbikes.
Pretty much impossible
co8539 yea definitely impossible in the backcountry
Nik Robinson no my frend did a backflip dow a drop i did bulde a lip on top and he said wach this bro
It's been done. Tough to do, they are over 10' long.
Snow bikes are like rollerblades...
What’s that mean?
"Not one man-made object in sight."
can skip over half way through a Red Bull video to find the action.
o may gat
Goog😍
Emezing
Sweeet 😍
Хороший канал
allhemp просто на нём нет лишнего
Way better than snowmobiles.
Timbersleds will be the death of peace in the backcountry
How? They're quiter than snowmobiles, take up less space, and don't go as far.
Yup, and Environmentalists will be the death of freedom in this country
The country nobody ever visits because you can't possibly get there on foot...
🤘🤘🤘🤙🤙🤙
FYi: for those NOT in the know: the big 6 mark up their bikes (and equip) because they know they will be giving away a TON OF merch, etc. I used to work for one of them and it's RIDICULOUS how much is added to the purchase price of a new machine, and anyone who tells u different is lying to us all simply because they just don't know the three steps before it gets to them. This is why more and more manufacturers are appearing...the see these holes to be filled in the market and people notice. It's only now where we will see prices start to drop because the tech REALLY hasn't changed since 2005 but very minor changes. By now, commonplace should be carbon fibre frames and for forks as STANDARD OEM equipment, lightest of weights. As well...fluids should have been faded out. Coolant: NO NEED, oil and lubes: NO NEED. All cured and EASILY replaced by magnetic fields and vortex generating coils/ Rodin Vortex Generating coils. So easy!!!!!! Tires: compounds that last twice as long are already used on jets but not consumer products. Hmmmmm.
$12,000 for Yamaha 450, $6900 for Yeti Snow Track kit, $500 for a used trailer, $100 for descent helmet, $150 boots, $60 gloves, $500- $1500 for extras you KNOW u missed or forgot about entirely=$22,000.00 after taxes/freight and up to start, new. NOT A PROBLEM, COOL, LET'S GO !!! 🍄🍄🍄 🍺🍺🍺 💰💰💰
andrew gates steal one
bought my Honda used for $3400. You don't have to have a new bike or a new kit to get out and have fun.
Cale Guenther yep
Don't cheap out on gear like that. Don't you know you need at least $3k worth of riding gear to look cool?

First
To prevent this from re occurring we need NEED to share what we create instead of patenting everything. Open source sharing. You will be surprised of the benefits including product sharing that comes with open sourcing, Web sharing type sites/products/info etc. Strength in numbers, not solo capitalist thinking. We need to start sharing working and thinking like bees, with a common goal. Cheers
Try moving, it's not happening in America!
This was a fairly average feeling video.. more footage less talking
These things are too underpowered. You need these kits on a gsxr1000 or something with some decent power.
Try throwing a 1000cc bike around like they throw their 450's around and that's your answer.
@@_owen 150lbs for 100 more horsepower. I think I'm ok with that.
@@saskmuddinatv sorry mate, my brain doesn't work in lbs on this side of the world
@@_owen lol

Do you like avalanches? Cause this is how you get avalanches.
don't worry about those ua-cam.com/video/itUXRROmdKQ/v-deo.html
Ugly machines...
Whatya want, rainbow and lollipops. They’re beast, made for men to rip and shred gnarly terrain not for Nancy boys on a Sunday stroll in the park.
