    My wife and I are both over 60 and love to mountain bike. This has been VERY helpful. The epiphany occurred, though, when we both got dropper posts. Once we got those, we were much more able to drive that outside knee into the turn. Without dropping the seat, that is much more difficult for both of us. All hail the dropper post! And Fabien.

    Great technical advise. I worked on this at a local track and was amazed how easy it was to make a fast clean turn without my front end washing out. Fun and smooth technique.

    This has helped me a lot! I have been riding for 15 years, trying to lean my body in corners and I never saw a big advantage. Now that I lean the bike as you show, I corner faster and I reduce my likelihood of sliding out. Thanks so much!!!

    Im a good rider, but im always loosing grip around corners, i dont usually watch tutorial videos because riding comes naturally to me but this video was really helpfull and I think i lean around corners the opposite way, I will try this out on the trails, I might already be using this technique without thinking about it but I will keep my eye on it when i ride.

    This is going to help me a lot. My lap times have come down a lot, but my cornering is what's slowing me down. This video is greatly appreciated.
    Can anyone verify if you actually turn the wheel when you're going through really tight, long, technical sections with trees only wide enough to get your bars through?

    • @reverse2
      @reverse2 10 років тому

      I do -- when my bars barely fit and I turn them to get through the two trees, I try and 'float' my body during that time so that any bumps have little effect and the turning I did to fit through the trees has as little effect as possible.

    Excellent video! As someone who has just got into MTB, this is the first video on cornering that I've watched that has made the most sense. Does the same technique work with berms, or do I have to lean more with the bike rather than remain in a more vertical position?

  • @krakosekrumpa
    @krakosekrumpa 11 років тому

    There are just two easy steps:
    1. Get your bike
    2. Go out and ride that corner until you nail it

  • @MrTay675
    @MrTay675 8 років тому

    Why does leaning with your body not initiate the turn in like it does with my motorcycle?

    • @markxkovacic
      @markxkovacic 8 років тому

      +MrTay675 This technique provides more traction. This guy is enduro world champ so knows what he is talking about. If you have a dropper post it is easier to do since you can get the saddle out of the way.

    • @xmazurx
      @xmazurx 8 років тому +4

      +Tay Mark didn't answer your question. The reason for the differences in cornering technique between a street bike and a bicycle (or even a dirt bike) is that not only is the coefficient of friction much higher between a street tire and the road surface, but the mass of the bike, which is much more substantial than the rider, places the CG closer to the contact patch. Also realize the differences in speed. On a motorcycle at very low speeds, you also should lean the bike over instead of your body as the bike will maneuver much more quickly, especially in a dodging maneuver..
      If you lean your body over on a mountain bike, you will quickly overcome the traction limit of your tires.
      Coming from riding street bikes, it was very hard for me to break my habit of wanted to lean my body. After many wrecks and the front end washing out on me all the time, I finally broke it and am doing much better.
