El nuevo Shimano XTR se ha hecho esperar. Había ganas, incertidumbre, dudas... Y es que con el nuevo XTR Shimano quiere recuperar el trono de las transmisiones "top" en el mundo del MTB y eMTB. Lo cierto es que el nuevo XTR M9200 tiene muchos argumentos para conseguirlo. Hablamos de ello con nuestro compañero José Crespillo, que estuvo en la presentación internacional que se celebró en España hace unos meses. Puede leer el "Primeras Pedaladas" del nuevo XTR en: https://www.mtbpro.es/afondo/primeras-pedaladas-nuevo-shimano-xtr-m9200-di2

Hat dieser Podcast unser Leben verändert?

Es wird wild gefeiert.

Es ist mal wieder passiert. Toffer und Flokuhila haben mal wieder eine Menge Dinge erlebt.

Warum ist Berni mit seinem neuen Bike gestürzt?! Wir waren einen Tag mit den Locals unterwegs - haben viel erlebt und gelernt, und genau das teilen wir heute mit Dir! Wir sprechen außerdem über “Heavy Feet, Light Hands”, wie Du schneller auf Trails wirst – dabei aber auch SICHER bist!  Außerdem klären wir: Was Du (nicht) tun solltest, wenn Du ein neues Bike bekommst Die Gefahren einer zu weich eingestellten Gabel und eines ungleich eingestellten Fahrwerks Bedeutet Spaß auf dem Trail, am Limit zu fahren? Häufige Probleme, wenn man mehr hinten als vorne bremst Woran merkst Du, dass Du über Deinem Limit (zB zu schnell) fährst? Was Du nach einem Sturz sofort checken solltest Warum verblockte, steile Trails für viele Frauen objektiv schwieriger sind - vor allem auf einem schweren E-Bike Was es mit dem “Eiswaffelgriff” auf sich hat - und warum er ein gefährlicher (leider noch oft propagierter) Mythos ist!  Ist "Stay loose!" (locker bleiben) ein hilfreicher Fahrtechnik Tipp? Und für alle, die's genau wissen wollten: Es waren 42,7 km/h… wir hatten also beide recht

Jeg smider mig selv under bussen og siger min mening om de 4 gravel cykler jeg har siddet på de sidste 4 måneder.Er der egentlig nogen mærkbar forskel?Hvad er jeg endt på af gravel?Er jeg helt færdig med EMTB eller er der en større mening med alle de timer jeg bruger på en gravel cykel?En ting er helt sikkert, jeg elsker bare at cykle og går ikke selv om i hvilken type cykel det er.Find min insta @larswilbur og følg med der

Aunque las novedades han sido escasas por los días festivos, la actualidad no ha parado... y es que el run-run sobre una posible regulación de las prestaciones de los motores de las e-bikes es cada vez mayor. De hecho, ya se han empezado a poner sobre la mesa algunas propuestas que, en este caso, vienen de ZIV, la asociación alemana de marcas de bicicletas (que no sólo incluye marcas de bicis, sino que hay actores importantes como BOSCH o Mahle que está muy presentes ahí). Todo esto viene de la escalada de prestaciones que hemos visto últimamente. Hemos pasado en muy poco tiempo de no darle importancia a los números (en definitiva las e-bikes cortan su asistencia a 25 km/h y tienen la potencia nominal limitada a 250 W) a la carrera por los Nm del par y la potencia pico que hemos visto desde, fundamentalmente, la llegada del DJI Avinox M1. ¿Es necesaria tanta potencia? ¿Cuáles son los miedos de la industria? ¿Quién le pondrá el cascabel al gato? Y sobre todo ¿Regular en este aspecto es poner puertas al campo? Debatimos sobre todas estas preguntas y alguna más. Y para darles respuesta analizamos, previamente, la propuesta de ZIV y de dónde viene; lo hacemos, además, desde la perspectiva de las marcas y el mercado. Otro tema sobre el que hemos debatido un buen rato es sobre las horquillas invertidas, que de nuevo han saltado a la primera plana por el prototipo FOX RAD de medio-largo recorrido que se ha visto en Sea Otter Classic en California. ¿Cuáles son sus ventajas e inconvenientes? ¿Por qué no se instauraron definitivamente los modelos anteriores? Hablamos también de todo ello. Pero también repasamos algunas noticias, como la nueva gama Go de Woom y sus últimos accesorios, un nuevo paso de la marca austriaca por ofrecer productos de la máxima calidad a los nuevos bikers, acompañándolos desde pequeños en todas sus fases de crecimiento. También hablamos del nuevo guardabarros Win Wing MTB de los suecos Ass Savers. Este programa ha sido posible gracias a FOCUS, que acaba de lanzar al mercado la SAM2, su e-bike de enduro, casi DH, ya que es una eMTB ideal para los amantes de las emociones fuertes. Tiene el motor BOSCH CX, baterías 600 u 800 Wh, 170/165 mm de recorrido de suspensiones...

Esta semana ha estado marcada por la llegada de la nueva Specialized Turbo Levo 4, una e-bike que era muy esperada y que ha generado muchos debates, opiniones encontradas y comparaciones más o menos afortunadas (sobre todo con el sistema DJI Avinox M1). En esta ocasión, en lugar de repasar las características técnicas (que están más que detalladas en el Primeras Pedaladas que hemos publicado en la web y el vídeo de nuestro canal de YouTube) hemos analizado ese debate y esas comparaciones para ver cuánto de justas y acertadas son y cómo es, realmente, la nueva Turbo Levo 4. También hablamos, rápidamente, de la Unno Mith, una de las primeras bicis que equipa, precisamente, el DJI Avinox M1; también de la llegada de la nueva Cannondale Moterra Carbon y Moterra Carbon LT, la renovación de un nombre mítico en el eMTB; y de la nueva Santa Cruz Bullit (estas últimas e-bikes apuestan por el BOSCH CX Gen 5) que hace una apuesta arriesgada por el e-enduro más manejable al montar la batería de 600 Wh (más range extender) y abandonar su mítico sistema de suspensión VPP por un four-bar. Por último, repasamos de forma más rápida las otras novedades que ha tenido la semana en forma de nuevos neumáticos de Continental (que suponen también el adiós a unos nombres míticos) de Good Year, de aros y bujes DT Swiss, Marzocchi... Este programa ha sido posible gracias a FOCUS, que recientemente ha presentado la SAM2, su e-bike de enduro y quizá algo más, ya que es una eMTB ideal para los amantes de las emociones fuertes y del DH con un cuadro robusto, mucho recorrido de suspensiones y el apoyo del BOSCH CX.

Esta semana la principal novedad ha sido la llegada de la nueva horquilla FOX 34 SL, una horquilla que sustituye a la 34 Step Cast, siendo un 17% más rígida y sólo 3,5 g más pesada. Cuenta con la estructura de una FOX 34, pero con novedades en cuanto al arco, puente, casquillos, un nuevo eje Kabolt SL... y la posibilidad de elegirla en 110, 120 y 130 mm. Canyon, por su parte, ha presentado dos novedades en su gama de montaña, por un lado la Exceed, que manteniendo su espíritu racing ha virado hacia un MTB más polivalente pensado incluso para viajar y la Grand Canyon:ON, la eMTB con cuadro rígido (sin suspensión trasera) y motor BOSCH CX con baterías de 600 o 800 Wh y que comienza con un PVP muy atractivo por debajo de los 2.800 €. Siguiendo con el MTB, Continental ha ampliado su gama de neumáticos gravity con el compuesto SuperSoft para los Kryptotal (que también estará en 20, 24 y 26”), Argotal y Xynotal. En carretera, además de nuevos montajes y colores para las MMR Adrenaline SL y X-Tour, la gran novedad ha sido la llegada de las zapatillas S-Works Ares 2 de Specialized, que adoptan aún más su horma buscando un mayor confort manteniendo, si no mejorando, su rendimiento.

In this episode Olly sits down with John Fernandes, co-founder of Freeride Madeira. John takes us through the wild journey of turning a passion for trail building into a global MTB hotspot, hosting the Enduro World Series, Trans Madeira, and welcoming some of the biggest names in the sport. The lads discuss how Jacob Gibbins' iconic photos and Brendan Fairclough's first visit helped put Madeira on the map, the behind-the-scenes madness of shooting DEATHGRIP, and what it really takes to maintain over 200km of hand-built trails across the island. John also shares what it was like hosting the EWS, the brutal reality of trail building, why other companies aren't pulling their weight when it comes to maintaining the trail network, how Brandon Semenuk managed to end John's relationship! Finally John talks about what's next for Freeride Madeira, including new eMTB trails, jump lines, and the epic expansion of Trans Madeira to a whole new island. If you've ever dreamed of riding in Madeira, this one's packed with history, insight, and plenty to get you stoked on booking a holiday!  Learn more at freeridemadeira.com or contact info@freeridemadeira.com BIG thanks to this episode's sponsors: - Invisiframe are offering TRC listeners an EXCLUSIVE 15% OFF their wide range of PPF kits, decals, bike wash and their new protective coating with code 'theridecompanion' over at invisiframe.co.uk - Everybody needs a WORX Hydroshot and some power tools, right?

Last year we visited Specialized's eMTB facility in Cham, Switzerland to ride some bikes and poke around their ebike innovation centre. We sat down with Jan Talavasek, Marco Sonderegger, and Joe Buckley, three of the key people behind eMTB development at Specialized, to talk about past, present, and future. We also got a special appearance from the venerable Marketing Todd, who swears Specialized is done making new bikes and that we should stop asking sneaky questions about future models. They had a lot to say, and we got a few tidbits out of them, so the pod runs a bit long. Alternatively, you can read the article + photos here. This was recorded before we'd figured out how to press the big red button to do video podcasts, but we'll be back soon with our regularly scheduled podcast. 03:07 The Evolution of E-Bikes & the Development of the Turbo Levo 14:58 The Shift in Perception of eMTBs 30:52 Brand Equity & the Levo's Original Name 33:51 The Swiss Office 44:02 Future Developments in eMTBs 50:20 Understanding E-Bike Performance Metrics 56:51 The Impact of Market Timing 01:00:00 Engineering for Performance, Legislation, & Consumer Safety 01:12:04 Charging Technology and Battery Longevity 01:15:59 Data-Driven Design and Testing 01:24:02 Field Testing and Component Tracking

Ever wondered where Brett Tippie get his endless jokes and infectious energy from? In this episode, Olly and Davi sit down with the freeride mountain biking legend to uncover his incredible journey—from being one of the first pro snowboard racers on the planet to dropping into his first steep gravel pit in Kamloops, where freeride mountain biking was born. Brett shares how freeride evolved into a movement, the bike industry's initial reaction, and the early days of Red Bull Rampage (including the time he got his bike stolen!). He opens up about battling addiction, disappearing from the scene, and his welcome return to the bike industry. We also dive into Brett Tippie's life as a father, his thoughts on today's true freeriders, talk about spotting Bigfoot and much more...

Brendan Fairclough and Chris Seager join us in the studio to break down everything you need to know about DEATHGRIP2! During the podcast we dive into the story behind the original DEATHGRIP—how it made its way onto Netflix and became one of the most-watched pieces of mountain bike content ever. Brendan and Chris reveal how DEATHGRIP2 pushes the boundaries even further, from insane FPV drone shots to their passion for long form content. Find out how the unfortunate delay in the film's release happened, the wild ideas that brought the project to life, and what makes this sequel stand out from the original. Plus, we chat about the UK premiere tour, behind-the-scenes moments with top riders like Amaury Pierron, Jackson Goldstone, and Kaos Seagrave, and why even the credits are worth watching!

In this episode we sit down with 2x World Champion Nathalie Schneitter to discuss her incredible journey in the world of eMTB racing!

How do you design adventure experiences for success? It is easy to plan big adventures but getting them to be epic for the right reasons isn't always as easy as it looks. This is especially true when we are building experiences to deliver to paying clients, our friends or family.Designing experiences that have the right pacing of adventure, and the right flow, can be the difference between epic disaster or exceptional experience.Joining us to explore what it takes to design the perfect adventure experience is Chris Winter. Chris is the owner or Big Mountain Adventures which offers mountain bike adventures in 14 countries around the world. Chris also teaches and guides steep skiing clinics for Extremely Canadian in Whistler, BC.Chris shares some of his experiences and insights into how we can structure amazing adventure experiences that we are delivering to others. He also shares some very funny stories along the way.Key InsightsDesigning amazing adventure experiences requires us to:Know our audience: Who are you actually building your experiences for? What are their needs, interests and capabilities?Align expectations early: This means ensuring everyone knows what they are getting themselves into. This includes aligning goals, identifying risk tolerance, addressing needs and so on.It has to be about them: There are experiences that guides, instructors and companies may want to deliver and there are experiences that people want to experience. These two things are not always the same thing. If you want to be successful, build experiences that people want to do.Get the Right Pacing and challenge: We want to ease into it, build in the challenge in the middle and finish with flow. This allows people to warm up and then consolidate their experience at the end.Remember the Purpose: The goal of adventure is to push ourselves outside our comfort zone. Adventure is important and sometimes we can forget why it is so valuable. Yes, adventure is often fun, but it serves a pretty important role in our lives. This makes the ability to deliver adventure a key life skill to have.Guest BioChris Winter is a former ski racer. Level IV CSIA ski instructor, level III high-performance ski coach, celebrated technical skier, sponsored big mountain skier featured in magazines and films. Currently teaching steep skiing clinics at Whistler Blackcomb for Extremely Canadian.Chris is the Owner and Founder of Big Mountain Adventures. Chris founded Big Mountain Adventures in 2002.

Simon welcomes guest co-host Mike Ferrentino to go over a busy, weird month in the bike world. Of course, they have to talk about what happened to Kona, which leads to a discussion about the negative effect Venture capital and investment companies seem to have on the bike industry.

Georgia Astle is one of the many ultra-talented riders to come out of Whistler, BC — but she grew up kitesurfing and doing a whole bunch of other sports, rather than mountain biking.
