- ► Relive Leogang 2015, an iconic UCI Mountain Bike DH Finals, only on Red Bull TV: www.redbull.com/int-en/events...
After breaking his chain right at the start gate, Aaron Gwin heads off for a run that will go down in the DH history books. Probably one of the most memorable MTB Downhill runs ever!
This was the scene of the greatest UCI World Cup downhill race victory of all-time. Sure, we've had big winning margins and wild riding, but never before has a rider snapped a chain at the start of his or her run and go on to take the victory. Leogang 2015 produced one of the most breathtaking, nail-biting and spectacular races of that season.

Legend has that he's going to nail it next year without a bike.
The most legendary Downhill run in MTB History.
Joker Royale #XD no
Joker Royale #XD Certainly one of them, but many legendary runs. Cheers
No
That or Danny harts super wet run in Champéry 2011
Samuel Paramor Danny hart for sure
This is history. We will be riding chain-less bicycles by the time someone does it again.
I mean it would be fun to do that now anyways. Kinda like skiing. Now pedaling, just a nice smooth flow down the hill and try to maintain the momentum and not crash.

Brendan zzstu Adamski, bruh
@Brendan zzstu Adamski lol wut (ps i think its a joke but you never know)
Now winning an XC race without a chain would be REALLY impressive.
I'd feel sorry for everyone else lol
*impossible
Winning the tour de france without a chain xD
@@quesothekid9725 "Etienne?! What are you doing?!" Etienne:"I'm concentrating!"
Matt Appleton czcams.com/video/bewo_6vU668/video.html
Redbull: "You better win this without excuses"
Chain: "I'm out"
This was the first downhill MTB race that I have ever watched & on that day I seen one of the greatest runs on a downhill bike ever.

@@bogdan7882 thanks a lot I needed that👍🏽😎
Plot twist: He shed the chain to make it go faster
John Ray less weight 👍🤣
Better suspension performance
Cosmic Steez more weight means it goes faster tho
@@higaddrip2583 no it doesn't. That's not how gravity works
Mark Mobley wym? If you’re heavier, you go faster down a slide etc right?
That run was off the chain...
I'll see myself out now.
Nah that chain was off the run man
No no, he's got a point.
Ben Norris czcams.com/video/bewo_6vU668/video.html
Connor Fearon still probably has nightmares about this race. He's never been that close to a world cup win before!
or since
Yeah it would be so bad for him. He seems like a real good dude
Getting wrecked by a dude without a chain haha
jptothetree czcams.com/video/bewo_6vU668/video.html
Hugh Mathews yeh he is get to seem him around the local tracks here a fair bit, his helped with build/maintanence days and puts on a show for the loval crowds at jumps
It's crazy to realize how much more potential you've got when you have to rail into the turns like that when you know braking isn't a option. Gwin definitely went for it!
Not to take anything away from him, Harts run in the rain is the most inspiring for me.
"Stay on yer bike Danny!"
@@attemptedpolymath9660
He was definitely hailing the mail on that run. Looked like so much fun!
I watched this whole thing with the announcers going "HOW IS HE DOING THIS!?" easy, no gas = no brakes
I always watch Danny Hart's 2011 run after this because i am addicted to the excitement !! :P Legendary!!
And here I am freaking out when my gears ain't shift smoothly...
This is the bright side of the Coronavirus, we get to see this kind of awesome content 😍
You know what would be more awesome.. actual 2020 MTB world cup!
@@KStack-bj9ps believe me im crying over here, planned to go watch couple of races live!
I'm not a MTBer, but this is amazing.
It's like breaking a leg and still scoring in soccer, or pulling one of your teammates behind a bobsled and still winning. - Amazing!

samer younis czcams.com/video/bewo_6vU668/video.html
His victory song is Unchained Melody
Michael Lee it’s called a joke
David Pretto czcams.com/video/bewo_6vU668/video.html
Gwin's win MSA 2017. Just as incredible a run and it totally changed the overall which he ultimately went on to win.
he doesnt need a chain anyway hes goin downhill lol
seriously speaking psychologically as soon as he realised he had no chain at the beginning he probably thought need to push it even more and take more risk which obviously helped
I know exactly what happened in his head " Well I guess I need to brake less". It happened to me on many on a few occasions on the trail. Went faster through some sections because I knew there was a uphill after.
Yeah, you can see him pumping the bike in a few places too...
zrazah h just because its a downhill he doesnt need to pedal? Maybe you dont need a brain because you dont know how to use it...💩
@@carlreyes5344 r/whoosh
zrazah h yeah like ohh fuckkkk....I came all the way... need to send it now !!
Aaron Gwin: alright, everything in place, chain check, brakes check, suspension check. Okay, let's go...
Chain: ight imma head out
who the heck dislikes a video like this? Thanks Red Bull for sharing this again what an epic run!
That’s one INSANE ride! Holy smokes that was awesome!
DEYM I STILL GOT GOOSEBUMPS WHENEVER I WATCH THIS
Aaron Gwin and Danny Hart gave us the 2 best DH runs of our time
Waren live dabei als Gwin DH Geschichte schrieb. Die Stimmung war ein Wahnsinn!
Amazing!! I miss this Gwin. Was hoping to see him have a come back this season, may not be any season this year at all. Bummer.
Love to see the post race interview!
I can watch this 20 times a day and always get the chills 👍🏼
One of the best DH run's :)
I watched this over and over since 2015 - Iost my chain few times in the mountains and I always think about Gwin then... :) You do get faster with no chain - smooth is fast.
Smooth is fast - well put mate
And not just in bikes me hearty
love to watch this video again and again...
♥️♥️♥️♥️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
amazing run
The Best, Greatest, Bigger DH run in history!!! 🤘🏼👊🏼
I met Aaron in Australia and he gave me a bunch of his gear and he still rides chainless to this day by choice now it's amazing
Amzing!those hubs are killers!
Throwbacks, love it
Never gets old.
BRRRRROO!!! Life. It's about moments like this. When you ride on sole momentum. Ghatdaahhmn!
This is unreal! Wow! So badass
No bullshit. I grew up with Aaron. He was a gnarly kid at 13. Was always clear he was destined for greatness 🤘🇺🇸
Amazing run..Worthy champion..😎
Impressive. That was a great run!
That was so rad. Gets me hyped to ride
Gwin & Palmer...Both from Specialized at some time.Just thee GOATS of DH ! Both coming into the sport with a different attitude & just cashing cheques as they went on & cleaned house in the years they were riding.Just All Round Awesome!
Danny Hart - Champery 2011, that´s the best one.
Not to mention danny's run in the world champs 2019; Bruni & Perrion waiting for their own fates. Awesome sport!
Saracen never seem to get any media always seems to be Specialized and SantaCruz
If I was there and lost to that run, I wouldn't mind. That's proper skill worthy of a win 👌
Absolutely incredible!
Encore une bonne vidéo merci redbull
Has anyone here rode without a chain? I twisted my derailleur at like 10am one day, yanked it and the chain off. Super fun as the riding style completely changes (Kept it off for the entire season). More about flow and keeping off the brakes. Honestly, made me a better rider :)
feeling kinda suicidal my man? not a great mimd setting for the whole future thing you know what i mean?
@@dermarm6928 Not really, any decent run is set up to flow. Jump lines are fine as you carry speed through, not required for drops, and you think more about carrying speed. Also was something to try if you break parts early in the day, no need to end your day.
I was thinking the same thing. When you don't have a way to pedal, you gotta take everything faster so you don't lose power if you are going up a short hill.
If you do MTB you've definitely had to go half way down a trail with no chain before or you were a dingus and you carried your bike the whole way.
... Danny Hart’s Run at Champery in 2011 was also awesome!
Not sure how I got to this video but that was EPIC
Impeccable braking skills and line selection can make up for a mishap like that.
More focus on the line and breaking due to no pedaling. Makes the run smoother. 100% respect🙏👌👍
Hes just saving on wear and tear on his drivetrain.
Mimi 78 czcams.com/video/bewo_6vU668/video.html
That was an impressive run!!!!!
Amazing run!
No matter what life throws at you, always give your all. You never know what you can accomplish until you do.
I don't follow this sport but damn this is outstanding
Just goes to show, smooth is fast.
LEGEND
Every downhill race should be chainless from now on. Really show who can ride a bike at speed and keep momentum
Mullaly also did it too. LEGENDS
Legend material
Legend.
You've just never seen a run like that.
The true definition of downhill mountain biking
Потрясающий заезд!!!😎🔥
Captivating at the highest degree "
Sam hill 2008 💪

Totally awesome.
Such a inspiring channel this RedBull Bike. so good. You have inspired me to launch my own new channel called Aventura Scotland. I will also be doing MTB in some of the remotest places in Scotland. Keep up the good work.
I Love Scotland, so will be following for sure. good luck
Im always on the trails in Scotland, looking forward to seeing your MTB Episodes.

@@nomadadventures9098 appreciated!
@@bradnelson7674 Hopefully i will see you on them one day.
The coffin guys were prepared with the Astronomia song in case this went bad.

amazing!
Freaking stallion! Simply the greatest American DH rider ever.
I'm sure Palmer would disagree 😂
@@Tony-df5rs, Palmer was one badass dude. Probably still is. A lot of great American DH riders. It is subjective.
Beautiful bike with epic rider = the champ
Legend
Insane... Dialed in... visualize victory
Amazing
Best commentating ever!!!
I could have won without a bike just the chain lol that was seriously badass race!
🔥 Aaron “chainless” Gwin 🔥
Sick!
That was insane!!!!
Epic!!
This is insane! 😮
I know that strategy
Is called: mid race weight reduction
That's taking a pee pee
One could claim he cheated
@@dashippo lol, like that guy at the Olympics who won a race with no legs!!!

Puts me right back🙇♀️
Legendary braking and balance.
