  • The free bike challenge - part 25 - Full suspension enduro MTB shredding! I find a free enduro bike and send it down MTB trails, a huge stair set of doom and even pull some tricks at a skatepark, but how long will it last?
    The free bike challenge is back for episode 25 filled with mountain bike trails, dirt jumps, urban freeride and ever some skatepark riding and I'm so excited to show you this one because we ended up finding the bike on the side of the road just like episode 1, so my longest running series has gone full circle! After finding the bike I brought it home to go over all the bolts and make sure it was running well, after a couple of turns of the spanner it was time to head to our local riding spot. I jump straight into the deep end and drop into a steep canyon with a tight turn half way down that isn't even nice on a normal bike! From here I proceed to ride the trails as fast as possible before trying a 360 and breaking the bike.... We head back home and do some maintenance on the bike before going over to a huge stair set of doom and getting wildly out of control down it before learning a little bit of history about the hill we just rode down! To finish off this bike it was time to pull some tricks at Mersea Island skatepark but how long would the bike last?? We then head back to Danbury trails for a bonus section where I try a spot of night riding on my Haibike allmtn electric bike using my new OLIGHT's which were actually so bright and made shredding in the dark so easy so thanks a lot for the freebies!!

      weirdly if you follow Sam's link, the products information for the 2K lumens light say that it has a 3500 mah battery, and doesn't list running time, though the other 2 lights listed do. however when I went directly to the website without using his affiliate link, it gives very detailed information about running time at various settings, and it says it has a **7000 mah** battery... according to that chart, on the 2k lumen setting, you'll chew through the battery in 1½hrs. but on its lowest setting 300 lumens, you can get 12½hrs
