Has anyone worked out what tyres he was riding? Just curious.

4 Channel 2.4GHz RC Explorers Quad Copter

Was impressed with those rims not buckling watching a few attempts at that big hop across

V enjoyable watch on iPad whilst at junior peds gymnastics this morning. Love mountains love bikes. Doesn't really get any better.

Also impressed by rims and that SC carbon frame.....not sure I'd be wanting to buy it second hand mind!
Was it a bronson?

Pretty sure they are Trail Kings (aka Rubber Queens)

Very decent watch!

Is the bike a SC Solo carbon?

OMG ! I was nearly sick at the part where he dropped the rope so as to get the genuine hiking the pinacle shot. I confess I am not great with heights but that was totally mental.

I have to say the probably greatest mtb film ever on the ugliest coloured bike

Flicking through iPlayer yesterday with Mrs B100 - saw this and we gave it a watch - fantastic, even the OH likes and her boredom threshold is very low with things to do with biking.

Having read threads on the interwebs before about Chris Akrigg riding more natural stuff - couldn't help but ponder if this was some kind of response. โ“

Whatever the reason, was brilliant - been doing that 'hit something forward flip forward' for years mind, just don't necessarily land on my wheels, ever. ๐Ÿ˜‰

His riding has gone off on an astral plane, I mean that was effing astounding.
I think that vid is the best one he has ever done, and it shows awesomely how his "street" skill just makes for a great all natural ride.
