- The rain as Les Gets changed the game turning the previously fast track into a slip and slide. While most riders struggled to stay on their bike Greg was able to use the conditions to his advantage and take home a podium position.

Best of luck for 2024, Greg. I first met you when I was about 14/15 and you had just started winning World Cups/Champs. I'm now 36 and you're still at the top of your game. Bravo
The GOAT still has it!
Such a cool video, the music, shots, stories, insights, The GOAT, wow really enjoyed that 🔥🇿🇦🐐
Great work from the Pinkbike production team! Great setting for the interview with Greg: outdoors, on a recliner - great vibe. And the soundtrack choices were great. So great for so many reasons. Well done!
great one, love it, thanks for putting that together
I was there, it was INSANE
Pitted the new Dialed
Fantastic result Norco! What a team effort. Great video too Pinkbike!
Cool to see the fork and shock info - 🎉
Totally. Thanks, guys.
goat!
I stopped racing in 2004, but at that time the courses were still composed of gnar gnar and it always favored the best skills instead of the best fitness. No groomed BMX jumps or fire roads and open ski slopes, just off camber slope crossing and fresh wood sections that made your ass pucker
Greg knows how to deal with the toughest of courses
Shut up back in my day
We gotta live in these bodies for decades; Some serious care is wise.
Great soundtrack choice.
What an absolute legend, unreal
Great video format, I enjoyed it very much, please make more videos like this one 👍🏼
What a Legend!! Loving the new Norco Team. Definitely my favourite team at the moment!!!
Love the video format, behind the scenes and story line🙌🏼
loving the vid🙏🤙
The GOAT! This was a great video, well done everyone!
Go on big G! Legend!
I still missing dialed 😢
Greg Minnaar is just like me with settings the suspension, I'll adjust everything i can possibly adjust atleast 4 times 😭🤣
Haha that used to be me but eventually I settled on my baseline settings and now I make minor changes only as necessary.
@@Wizler71 I'm so happy I'm not the only one🤣
Impressed to see that Greg basically likes a solid iron bar for a fork... 96 psi 6 tokens, geez!
One helluva race.
🐐 and🤖 all over the place!!😂
nice one! great music too

It was a bad ass run by Greg, I was hoping he stayed on to the whole time because it was just getting worse. Only two guys managed a bit better and I’m okay with that. Lasgoooooo!!!!
Loved it.
Which tires did he end up choosing?
10:50 I get the sense that his saying, "We needed the intermediates," after mentioning mud tires, makes it the final word and the tire they chose.
Legend
I gotta get some Devil's Peak Lager now...........
What happened to Dialed ??
Maybe they've said what needs to be said, and are focusing on other aspects of their business and riders' needs.
@@William.Driscoll thanks.....I found it a cool take on life in the pits; It put you right there with the athletes & their support crew
Do norco sell these dhill frames yet ??
Those fork settings are insane for the ordinary guy. It's just not gonna work for your average Joe doing your average speed with average physicality. I can see how most of it is probably bang on for a world cup rider but those rebound speeds seem a bit suss
Norco dropped Rockshox for Fox just to appease Minaar?
They tried them back to back and he preferred tuning of Fox more. If I remember correctly the vital mtb interview
@@naimatakku poor Jordi. lol
The factory team had the option to choose whichever shox they wanted to use. They did try them back to back and went with Fox.
Kudos for getting a podium on the worst painted bike on track.
It's a wrap which was designed by disabled children from his home town in South Africa
Yes, maybe it’s better sometimes to find out the reasoning behind a paint job, before making an arsehole of yourself !
@@benoosthuizen4961 I’m aware as I saw his posts but that doesn’t change the fact it’s the ugliest paint at Les Gets. So maybe you’re the asshole?
Background music is horrible

The background music in this video makes it nearly unwatchable.
