what is the most versatile tire for xc bike? i love road and trail

Sub to our channel!

liam. legend!

can you guys do a mega avalanche race

This was different and really enjoyable.

Thanks again for another nice XC video guys! Your channel is one reason I started to rediscover my mtb passion :) Spent most of my kilometers on the roadbike over the last few years, but totally switched this year.
There is one topic I am still missing a bit and that's marathon racing. GCN did a nice bit about the Maratone dles dolomites last year, would be great if you could some similar videos on the gmbn as well, perhaps do a trip to the sellaronda this year.

Hi in a noob. So if i have bike with a fork with a steere diameter of 1,5", can i use a tapered fork in there if i chane headset or whatever its called?

Can you guys do a video on how to service fox 36 fork.

I'm with the other commentors, more XC content, and more hardtail content! please!

more xc please

Jeez, Neil has gotten so much better at presenting!

And there you see a mountain biker riding of into the bush... and hitting a tree😂😂

Although far from a great Xc racer I have 2 tips on top of this to add that have worked for me in the past for races. 1 if you don't have a dropper get use to riding downhill sections as well as you can with a high seat 2. practice going into technical sections whilst in the red and try and ride them as best as you can. Both feel a little horrible but will be good practice come race day

do u take gels straight from the tube coz I always mix mine with water?
just thought thats wat u do wit em

Brilliant video lads! Awesome! I was hoping you would do a video like this because I would love to enter some XC races!

Liam kileen sounds as exited about that video, as Neils does about introducibg the dirt sted show.

Great tips! Haha that last clip makes me think you should start doing the caption contest with videos as well! :D

What is better for XC- 27.5 inches or 29 inches?

Pro bottle tip, use camelbak or similiar. You can look forward and it's really easy to drink while riding.

I would love to see more hardtails on gmbn as they seem to get left out
