I know we're spoilt re. fork choice, but look what is was like in the rigid days.
That is priceless. ๐
Brilliant video! Fair few buckled wheels in them days myself!
Posted up a while ago.
Still funny as!
4:44 awesome crash!
crashes down the steps around the 5:30 mark are brilliant! ๐
Just the odd crash then!,was this a top level race or just a for fun thing?
I remember crashing like that myself, there was ar ace in beddgelert, even Johnny T was there and the very very high speed gravel road descents were much scarier (to me) than the DH courses of today...
Very entertaining, thanks for posting that.
Made me all nostalgic for when I used to have to clamp my front wheel between legs and straighten my stem five times on every ride.
Seen this before but its still brilliant, worth it for the outfits alone!
No quailifying runs then ??
Makes mayhem a bit boring to watch

I'm struck mainly by how flimsy the bikes seem to be in a crash - how many dead wheels???
Interesting how easily folks went over the bars, twitchy XC bikes eh.
