MY NEW DOWNHILL FORKS ARE SICK

- My new downhill forks are sick, after I arrived home from my 3 day trip to Canada I found a huge box had been delivered to me full of new suspension forks from Marzocchi and Fox. Yesterday I fitted some 160mm bombers to the electric bike and today was all about the Downhill bike, i'm pumped on how these beasts look and I much prefer it to the look of the fox forks! What do you guys think!?
I will get out on the Downhill bike as soon as possible because I want to get some cool shots with the new suspension forks on and just ride the bike because I haven't been on it enough!
Hope you enjoy the video!!

I was stupid lost the password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me

sam : to the floor
Would Not recommend
Then don't fallow him 😂😂😂😂
The dream bike build XD
now I know why pro's have mechanic's
XDXDXDXDXDXDXD
Sledgehammer - is the way to go.
Funny for a red bull bike they use these bikes I found a mondraker down hill bike for 7.999 but then if you want to upgrade the wheels to 29er you have to upgrade the front fork to a fox 29er shock
i'm an aircraft mechanic and i'm crying when i watch you doing the job! xD
I'm also an aircraft mechanic
Don't need to be an "AIRCAFT MECHANIC" to cry !

Mario Georgiev lmao
Aerospace parts setter, machinist, inspection, quality controller here... pass me the tissues.
Truly the worlds best bike mechanic!

Thanks for confirming that my bike mechanic skills are spot on.

30 seconds earlier: *Whack!* *Whack!* *Whack!* "What else can I whack it with??"
USES A BRICK TO BEAT THE RING IN PLACE LOL WHAT A CAVE MAN
Anyone else think Sam should start his own .... tool kit for bikers ... it’s a randamonium pro tool kit , complete with caravan weight 🤪🤪🤘
Hey Sam.. Need some advice on running a stock metropolise except for running magura brakes now and a hollow star nut for bar spins .Any advice on bits to change ?
Crescent and a brick is all you need
Id buy it!
I love watching you do mechanical stuff on your bike. “What else can I whack it with?”
I would have left the fox 40 on
yea me too
Marzocchi and Fox are the same company dude.. He said it in the video too xd
Fox owns Marzocchi and they run the Fox internals on that fork. But, i'm sure they'd like to up their presence for this brand. It's kinda like the KTM - Husqvarna relationship, built in the same factory with the same components but a few details are different.
smotriK _ Fox still has the better damper LUL.Marzocchi is fox their "cheaper" brand.
Everyday i didnt say they are better. But i think they are pretty solid too. (-:
I just simple liked watching you do mech work Sam,
The other day I watched you stand on a dudes warped bike rim and straighten it. I’ve totally underestimated you bro and love how you further impress . Shred on
I'd honestly kill for the Fox 40's.. I'm trying to build a proper Dh/Fr bike, so if I must kill.. :D
DO IT!
Heathen yea do it, they’re worth it. I got them so I can tell.
Oh, wait...
Florian Mikoleit 😂
See what you make people do, Sam? Hahahaha :D
Hahahahaha”so if I must kill”
*it's actually the dream*
Paddy Shaw oh yes it is
EPIC
Watching you work on bikes it’s THE DREAM
Love it, as a broke student you give me tips on how to handle my old Norco Sasquatch without tool. Thanks
Awesome as always. I can't get enough of these vids, looking forward to test ride 🤘
Bombers all the way. Thats what we all wanted and couldnt afford as a kid in the late 90s. Still cant afford but ya know. Haha.
I'm so glad I've got the 55 Bomber on my old freeride bike. It's from 2009 or 08 but it's a dream..
After 10 years it's still workin perfectly and never needed maintenace
grandpa made me laugh
"who needs the top tools when you got the weird stuff" - *Sam Pilgrim*
I have learned a lot watching your videos, keep them coming!
Man i just love the he works in his bikes!! Best bike mechanic out I'd say
"Time to sand it down..." *scrapes it across the asphalt*
Me: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I kinda need some DH forks and I couldn't help notice you had a spare one?
Lets face it - you're full send man. Respect in anything you do!
"right, so they are now obsolete"...your left overs get me every time. Living the dream buddy
_Marzocchi_ is *SICK!*
TheDocteur78 Marzocchi was bought by FOX. I think its olmost the same fork.
Fox use all the good features on their own branded stuff, and they cheap out on the Marzocchi. The single crown "Bomber Z1" they rebooted the brand with was an air fork, because manufacturing a coil/oil fork would have been a conflict of interest with Fox's own "superior" brand. Annoyingly, it's the coil and oil setup that Marzocchi revolutionised the suspension industry and became famous for in the first place.
@@Einfach_der_geilstedu hast almost falsch geschrieben 😂
@@NennMichPhil i know 😂
2:26 ‘and man they look sick’ 😂🤣
The black stanchions look so cool with that frame.
So stoked to see you back on Marzocchi!
sam should build a free freeride bike! with those forks
Agustín Echevarría and leave it on my street 😂
Epic but i would have left the foxes they just match the shock a little bit better
Sponsors
Anthony Mowl i know
Such a craftsman! You’re the best mechanic right now!
Dude I totally love how you build / put your kit together ! Every upgrade video you post makes me smile and brightens my day. I would almost pay money for you to do one better and do some work on one of my motorbikes. Ignore what others say just keep up the awesome and beautifully funny mechanics.
THE BEST BIKER EVERRRR
Marzocchi always number 1 !
So freaking blessed to have suspensions and forks day after day lol plus the magura brakes man those are my dreams
Omg it looked so satisfying when you first got on the bike
Great video
*the dream*
Sam is the man! Totally how i put my bikes together get er done
Another pure classic from Sammy P 👍👍👍
When can I come over to "look" at your bikes
What do u do with all the old
Parts lol u must have such a collection
Bro I love your videos. Watching a lot of them whole I heal from crash
Can’t wait to see you shredding this bike🤘
I always was a fan of Marzocchi, hopefully they will be even better now that Fox owns them.
They arent
Do more trials vids
Fokin mint!
"..can only do so much mechanics in one day or my mind just explodes.. and i have to listen to techno to put it back to normal again!"

these new fork vlogs are the best
Can you do a video or explain being a sponsored rider if all the bikes Haibike gave you are they loaned? or owned now? do you have a option to buy them or do they ask for them back? Also like as people here say I want your forks, do you have to give the old ones back? does your sponsor allocate stock to riders and want it back when finished? How does it work that your sponsored by fox and now you've changed forks when from what I saw on the last video they sent more fox forks? Just wondering what riders do with all the gear? as some by the end of their career have nothing apart from the bike they started with before sponsorship
I keep everything
Hahaha, Sam Pilgrim, that big long winded question and you come back with a three word answer. 😂😂
2:04 ‘what else can I whack it with?’ Hands down worst mechanic ever love it tho
I was like, ohhhh noooo! LOL
Thanks man! Thanks to your video I realized the bike I bought brand new at a store didn't have a lower crown race.
those marzocchis look *the dream*
Who else gets cancer when he “sands” the steerer tube

can i get one of your'es forks? +sam pilgrim
Hahahahah what a legend i just watched forks for enduro bike cant wait to watch this too😁
i have always enjoyed your videos but this one is just great buddy (dunno how i missed it before)! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! your showing people that they can accomplish something without having 200 tools at hand but only essentials + some plumber stuff :D
wish i can have your old fox fork :(( please send me that one!
Haha really got me by saying the best and not the dream
I was also expecting ''the dream'' hahaha
MisterZhivago WheelieMaster hahah classic Sam
Haha that installation is to die for! :D
cant wait to see the ride😀
People moaning about fox need to realise there are other brands out there that are just as good........ It's like kids and motocross bikes always wanting a ktm:/
KTM makes the best Trail bike for a year, nobody is buying it, they think Trek, cannon, and such still make good bike frames. They don't.
There is no real quality outside of Japan.
I really don't get it why people say that fox is better then marzocchi. It depends on what you like and enjoy more. Stop it get some help
@Lee Warped Sounds Mac whyyyy the fox is so much better then the manitou
Marzocchi and Fox are one Company now, and Rockshox and Sram also seem to be the same Company now... But im ok with that! It will help Marzocchi and Fox to make even more Badass Forks and Dampeners because they work together on them.
This is to funny I absolutely love you mechanic skills 😂😂 love the vids..
Even Bike Building is hilarious with you 😂😂😂
such a bad mechanic 🤣
i cant hear you
