    The edits continue to get better and better, the drone footage adds so many great view points, you get much more of a sense of the trail. Love your work dude!

      Thank you mate. It's not the perfect piece if kit, but you certainly can get some shots that add to the enjoyment of the vids! Cheers for the positive vibes buddy 😁

    Flow heaven = Queenstown NZ. McNearly Gnarly at Wynyard. Rude Rock, Hot Rod, Zoot/lower Zoot at Coronet Peak. And then add Skyline itself, Glendhu and Alexandra day trips. Definitely a bucket list place to ride and I'll be back there in the Future. Hope to tick of some of the trails you are showcasing in June/July. Keep them coming please👍

      It sounds like I need to get out there mate. I'd love to ride in the Southern Hemisphere! Cheers for giving a list and some tips. I'll definitely check them out on YT. Enjoy your trip in June and July 👍

    Great vid, Watched it during the week. Inspired. Headed up there today. Wow wow wow, amazing trails. Gold. Loved them. Best day out in a long time. Didn't make it round to rockhopper but got 43kms with relish, chutney and masterblaster and a few in between.

      For sure man. Love ur vids. Recently started watching them on the big tv instead of my phone. Now the kids are asking if the pigeons got any new vids for us to watch. They are only 8 and 6 and are just starting to have an interest in mtb = more days out on the bikes, win win 🤟

    Great work as usual Pal.
    Picking up my 9c on Thursday as presently away in Amsterdam with my bestie.
    Going full top end build with Zero Moto 3 carbon wheels, xx1 drivetrain and code RSC as I'm a bit heavier. Deity carbon bars and reverb dropper. Running Pike ultimate 140mm and the same Ultimate deluxe rear shock The invis kit has arrived for installation prior to build.
    Can't wait to get it to Hamsterley, my local trails.
    Ps how's your thoughts on the rear shock ?
    Cheers Pal stay safe 👍

    • @streetpigeonmtb
      @streetpigeonmtb  Рік тому +1

      That sounds like an incredible build mate. Really top end! Would be interested to hear what you think about the carbon wheels.
      Shock has been flawless so far. Very supple with a nice poppy feel and a decent ramp up on it. I'm enjoying it.
      Thanks for taking the time to comment. Let me know how you get on with the new steed!

    • @shaneycarter8803
      @shaneycarter8803 Рік тому +2

      That's great to hear your thoughts on the shock as this was exactly what I was hoping for 👌
      Looking forward to trying out the zip Moto's too, the build quality is top drawer with the new V2 hub with practically instant engagement. Hoping that the ankle flex they are meant to have will soak up the little bumps whilst improving traction etc.
      I'll let you know as soon as she's ridden and tested out. Can't wait mate. All the best 👍

      Ah, thanks mate. I've always tried to focus a bit more on the editing side to try and offer something a wee bit different. Keep at it mate. UA-cam is next to impossible these days and I believe the war of attrition is real. For a while I got down about my lack of progress in channel growth, so now I just focus making the edits I want to make rather than chasing views. I've been a lot happier since doing that and ironically, I think I've had better views since taking thay approach.
      Thanks for taking time to comment and feedback. Best of luck with your channel and have an awesome 2023👌

    • @streetpigeonmtb
      @streetpigeonmtb  Рік тому +1

      Twin pots... One would be pushing it I think 😁 The Cudas are very good - my only criticism is they took probably two rides to bed in.
      The initial bite feel is similar to Shimano, however the Formulas have more modulation after the initial bite.
      Overall I think twin pots are more than ample for a trail bike and/or lighter riders.

      It's pretty much in Aboyne itself. If you check my Strava out or get on Trailforks you'll find it.
