No Longer Sponsored By Pivot!
Yes, Pivot and I are no longer a couple! We had fun, adventures were had and memories made but nothing lasts forever and it's time to start a new journey.
All details are in the video but I want to give thanks to Pivot here too, Josh from Saddleback is a dude and I genuinely did love the bikes.
I'm looking forward to what comes next.
Cheers!

zhlédnutí 8KPřed 16 hodinami
After riding the Pace RC250T last week I was itching to ride another retro build I did recently...the UK made steel Leeson Clear 660! Build video here: czcams.com/video/gh9FWlYtxmk/video.html I wasn't sure if I was going to like this bike or not but it surprised me! Give the video a watch to get my thoughts on it.

GoPro Hero 12 Vs DJI Osmo Action 4 - Which action camera is better for biking?

Please watch in the highest quality possible for best results. It's a good time to be alive as there's more choice of action cameras on the market than ever! It can be a little tough to decide which camera is the best though so I've decided to make an in-depth test video on the two biggest names, GoPro and DJI. GoPro have been the leaders in action cameras since the start but are they still the...

Im such a tease aren't I! Before I built my latest Hex I hinted I was going to be fitting a very special product from Canada and I asked on my socials for you to guess what it could be.

Is this the most requested bike build I've ever had? I think so, it's certainly been right at the top of my list of dream trials bikes since I was a. teenager!

    You are an amazing person. Thoughtful and down to earth. Your new sponsor is lucky to have you. I love all your vids from retro builds to hopping around to comps. I have learned a lot from you. It was hard for me to hear that at one point you were judging yourself by lack of a sponsor when you know inside yourself who you really are and even if bicycles didn't exist you would still be that guy. Old trials rider from Canada just giving you my two cents.
