MY LAST EVER RIDE ON A HAIBIKE - I QUIT!

- My last ever ride on a Haibike - I quit! This is the end of an era for me, after 5 years of riding for Haibike I have quit the team and all is revealed in this video, whilst having one last shred on local MTB trails!
It has come to this point in my life where I've had to move on from Haibike after 5 years of sponsorship, and in this video i'll tell you why, whilst getting in one last ride down my local MTB trails on my enduro bike and have a pretty fun shred session with Lewi Pilgrim. I've been slowly feeling Haibike's direction heading the opposite way, so with my chance to leave I jumped at the opportunity and will move on to something amazing in 2023!
Would you stay or leave?
I hope you enjoy the video!

Whoever the new sponsor is - Thank you for having the vision for supporting Sam so we can keep getting this brilliant content
I think it could be canyon the hints link to them
@@Stncedr1ge That was my guess for nuke proof
100% this top comment.
@@Stncedr1ge trick brand could be commencal
I think if he was broke it would just carry on with a Nokia 3310
This is the best quit-end sponsorship credits of all times, as an athlete and and as a fan of you, my respect got even bigger and looking forward for the best of you 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
Yeah right! Haibike have lost their biggest advocate haha
@@i-_-am-_-g1467 ...his comment did'nt knock anyone... he wished him well....whats with yea right ha ha childish b.s. support💙not criticize others..
@@i-_-am-_-g1467 Haibike ended the contract with Seth @ "Berm Peak"
@@jayesh5131 It was DiamondBack with seth
@@isaacbrinklow6971 Haibike is a sister company of Diamondback. So in a sense, he is kind of correct!
Well done Lubes on an amazing half decade of filming your crazy bro . Seen some amazing riding from you both and cant wait to follow you both on the next sesh 👊😎
Dude im so happy for u sam. Enjoy the bikes and push the limits just as u do.
I love whatching ur videos. I can comfortably say u are the one i look up to and that u pulled me in to mtb. Ive come this far that ill start compeating next season and i made my own full sus frame (i hope ill launch them some day) and huge thanks goes to u, cuz every time i lost that spark u and matt jones were the riders that kept me going. Thank you and him:)
Whatever the new brand is they're lucky to have you. The way you are able to push the boundaries of what is possible on any given type of bike is incredible.
You were to only reason I even consider Haibike.
What you gana do whith all your hibike bikes that you have
@@cancer8343 Thats crazy, i would never buy a brand just because sam is riding it, lets face it, Sam could ride a shopping trolley better than most of us can ride MTB and still make it look mega stylish. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@leehorspool9744 yes but he also rides hardcore trails and jumps so a bike that can handle his riding shows its a strong bike
It's the bed frame bike manufacturer, since his video on it they've blown up and been making alot more models, makes sense to hire the guy that supported them from the start.
He did say that the new bike is for all types of riding, so makes sense that it's a bed.
Laughed my ass off.
Props. I’m sprung
damnit you beat me to it
@@toast9958 would have been alot funnier if you had a sense of humour. 🤷♂️🤦♂️
Love watching your videos and your enthusiasm for mountain biking. Your skills are on another level and regardless of brand will always be worth a watch. Good luck with an exciting 2023!
Stoked to see the new sponsors and glad to see you still pushing after all these years of watching! Was watching from my Xbox but wanted to leave a comment 🤘
i cant wait for what you have in store... always a joy to watch
Respect! ✊
The thumbnail and title had me somehow worried for you. But with seeing how stoked you are on the new sponsorship, I’m left feeling super happy for you. Great stuff! Onwards and upwards Sam 🤟
Congrats to joining the YT Family 😉😉😉😉
No seriously, Thank you so much for all the crazy moments and have fun wherever the way goes forward for you!
Congratulations to you Sam and Lewi on your new sponsor, who ever they are they are lucky to have you. Be safe guys and a very happy new year. Trek or Santa cruze.
Any brand you represent receives such incredible value for the investment. Never heard of Haibike before you and found it hard to respect the brand, but you've shown what can be done with them, it's amazing. I enjoy what you do on the analog hardtail, especially. Whichever company you're going to present next has much to look forward to. 🤘
Sam and Lewi y'all rock! Today was EPIC even though it was the last time on the Ebs! Can't wait to see what you have in store for us! Happy New Year y'all! Peace
This is awesome! Somehow a dude that seems to make anything seem equally rideable, rather than try to dial in components and talk about them, ends up being one of the best brand ambassadors! Even on the last day.
An extremely inspiring person you are, looking forward to 23!
With almost 2M Subs I'm sure the brands are all coming to yu and you can pick what you want and who aligns with your goals, congrats to all the hard work to get into this position!!
Thanks and happy new year to you too brother my best wishes to you and your family 👐 ♥ 🚲
Sam’s such a class act: gives his old sponsor a proper sendoff and always treats Lewi like a true partner in the operation!
Hi,my tip is the Ghost.
Nice touch that😎👌 can't wait to see next year's videos on tte new machines 💯
Good for you, nice to see that you are excited about these new sponsors, after you have made me so excited about riding
Congrats Sam, you truly are an amazing rider and an even better person! You share such a wildly amazing vibe and I'm sure your new sponsor is going to be blessed to have you! Keep up the radness dude!
Find it very respectful how he bids farewell to his old sponsor. I wish you every success and happiness in your new company
Thought the same. Classy dude for sure. Respectful and grateful like a pro. Why his videos are the best.
Yes Pilgs!!! I remember way back in the day when you were known as Leopardhead. I used to ride at PORC a lot and helped run the DH races there for a while. I had a few sessions with you in the jump area, you were always so pumped, positive and supportive of others even at that young age. You pushed me to ride bigger jumps and i've always loved you for it. Keep doing what you're doing dude can't wait to find out who you're taking your next step in your riding career with. Best of luck dude never stop shredding!!!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year mate. Sounds like 2023 is going to be EPIC!!
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉 on the new checkbook!!!
im getting Specialized vibes here, no one else really jumps out at me. tires too.
That’d be epic
You deserve all the good things brother, you're such an inspiration for so many people. Wish the best for you the next year with the new brand! You are a Legend
#TREKFORPILGS
To say I’m looking forward to 4th would be an understatement 🎉 congratulations Sam 👏 can’t wait to see the Big Reveal!!
Good luck to you on your next chapter Sam. cant wait to see some more crazy Pilgrimage 🤟
great content as always sam,
to the sky!!!🤙
Not many people have done as much as you in Mountain biking 'tricks', so well done fella, hope it all goes well and hope you continue to enjoy it .. ;)
Well done Haibike, enjoyed seeing the all mountain up on the ramps. Looking forward to seeing what's next. I think specialized!
The outro slomo makes me happy every time. Happy new year boys!
Looking forward to seeing what’s next think it’s going to be epic as allways 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank god you are free Sam! Exciting to see some new stuff from you!
Happy 2023 Sam 🥂🤚
Happy New Years Sam, Lewi! It will be a loss for Haibike and a Big gain for.... Canyon..!?? Love your content, and I look forward to seeing more in 23!
Id say Trek or Canyon, with Canyon probably being the most realistic given its a Euro brand. Either way, Sam is probably the best type of rider to sponsor, Nonstop content (and it is RELATABLE riding), 100% good vibes, and one of the best freestylers in the biz. I agree I would have never heard of Haibike without Sam.
Congrats Sam and your new sponsors!
i think santa cruz
I think that it probably will be canyon or trek because he said that there was a slope style bike from that brand.
You're the reason I decided to get a haibike, and get back into mountain biking in 2020. It's honestly been a great bike, and it's done everything I ask of it. I'm not the rider I was when I was younger, but your videos inspired me to get back out on the trails and its been a total blast. I use it for commuting (even in winter and through snow), errands close by, trail riding, and longer joy rides/workouts. I love it, and its simply a joy to ride everywhere. Its not playful on the trails like a regular mountain bike (more like a tank), but I can go twice as far in the same amount of time. For the price, I think its a great bike.
Thanks for the dedication and all the awesome content. You're the man. Wish you the best with the new sponsor and new year!
Happy New year the family pilgrim
The change of tyres as well makes me think it'll be Trek for the bikes and Bontrager for the tyres. Keeping it all in house so to speak. Loved my Big Earl up front on my old Fuel EX9 so would be happy to see their kit actually ridden to its limits 🙂
Congrats on the new sponsors, can’t wait for more fun!
😁🤙
congrats sam i’m guessing santa cruz
I recon Canyon or Santa Cruz. Can i have ur old haibike 😂
@@peterphelan4617 yeah I'd also say canyon. I mean he said they have a slopestyle Specific bike and he's definitely gonna need it to keep up... So I'd say he really means a slopestyle bike, like full squish. Only real options if the brand has to be a big one with good athletes are canyon and trek. And I'd say it's canyon, just because he's one of the biggest MTB CZcamsrs and canyon wants to get all of them xD
Whoever these sponsors are going to be, they are very lucky to have both Sam And Lewi on their team!! Good luck and can't wait for the reveal!!
I'm so glad, because I live in the US and it's been super frustrating falling in love with the bikes from watching you and wanting one and not being able to get one.
We will support and follow your lead with the changes you make!
Man ur the best u go for ur choices I’m so excited to see the new brand
We'll stay with you, happy new year!
Trek or Canyon? Glad ur stoked and i know the new sponsor has to be… with the Lewi and Sam show!!! Thanks for the great vids and content and inspiration !!! Have a great new year!!!
respect your decision sam, gonna be strange to see you without the orange beauty at all of your events! have a great holiday!
also have been waiting to get noticed by sam for a while, i saw him at big white and it was super dope
Onwards and upwards boys 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Congrats, on the new team/sponsor, Sam!
As long as the trick reels come by, keep shreddin', Sammy!!! Greetings from the Philippines!!!
I wanna guess if it'll be a Nukeproof bike that you'll use. 🤣🤣🤣
Philipines do mtb? Not too hot there for that?
@@doitbeforeyoudieful nah.
Oo nga, btw kumain kana?
@@doitbeforeyoudieful IT IS TOO DAMN HOT LMAO but it is easily relieved by getting stocked. I used to drink 2L through an hour of pushing up then drink another liter after couple of mins descent.
Sam I’m so stoked for u! My guess is Commencal for sure!
Mine too bro
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Sam and Louie....
Guessin Santa Santacruz or NORCO
Absolutely love your work, can't wait to see what's next no matter what sponsor you have. Been watching since the NS bikes days so going to guess the next sponsor could be Trek!
That’s pretty sick sad that it the last time though keep up the work
Gonna be joining Canyon Bikes? It doesn't matter what you ride still a hilarious guy and you bring out the part of mountain biking I love which is having fun no matter what you're doing. Congrats Sam!!!
Bro I'm so excited to hear your heading over to team Huffy, it's gonna be EPIC!!!!
Yoooo. Respect to Haibike. Cant wait for some killer sessions next year!!
Reckon it's Trek with Brontrager tires 🤔
🤢
Just posted this, a day later :-) but I think it fits...
If he could bring back the original onza porcupine tires… that would be amazing
Don’t pay attention to me daydreaming
Thought that when he said about tyers
Happy for you dude!
Your videos got me into mountain biking, so I'm beyond STOKED to see you landing with a company that's going to support the shredding!
Unbelievable 5 year journey with outstanding content you’ll never get bored with Sam 💯 one of the G.O.A.T 🐐 in our era❤️
Congrats ,, NO MATTER WHICH SPONSOR YOU GOT NOW WE WILL LOVE TO WATCH YOU WITH A SMILE ON MOUTH WE LOVE YOU CRAZY MAN 😁HAPPY NEW YEAR FOR YOU AND ALL MTB LOVERS
Sad times, must be weird like you say. End of an era. Good luck on the new brand.
amazing content, thanks for entertaining videos is always fun watching all of them, I have a question actually ¿do you have to return all your bikes or are they yours ? best of luck
Hope that you are going to enjoy the next sponsors even more than the previous ones. Love u pilg 😀
Me and me bro brought haibike after watching your vids mate sad times but exciting ones dude 🤘🏻
I bet he generates even more sales for HB with this goodbye video.
@@jeffhayes1855 no doubt mate ...
Your next bike sponsor I was told is *_HUFFY._* 🤣😅🤣
Hai!
Walmart
Mongoose lmao
Can't wait to see the new content, its going to be a Giant leap forward!
Love your fairwell video never burn a bridge as they say...love your channel so entertaining mate 👍 so spesh it is then sweet or GT or Giant how many guesses can I have ? You never specified..! look forward to some epic vids and reveal on 4th Jan TO THE SKY.......
The big 3 are Trek, Giant and Specialized, but with all the cuts I’m goin with trek, there slope bike is sweet too
Don't forget santa cruz
Its either trek or specialized but im more with specialized
@@MondiMTB Same 😊 Or an oldschool revival of GT Bikes 😉
trek bikes are made by giant.
Specialized?!
Gotta say, lewi you deserve this so much too. You have put in all the hours of filming for Sam, and I hope good things are too come for you from this
Give the chap three good spanks why don’t ya
im so excited to see your next chapter of s knew bikr snonsor same keep up the good work love the vids bro
Get bk on the crankworx tour with the boyz, saying that Rampage , Nines maaaaan that would make my year, to see you showing the full send at comps with all the lads AGAIN! Quality, best of luck mate sounds amazing. The "keep up with the kids" comment.. No you will smash it!! Let's gooooooo!!!!!
It’s Santander and they’re kitting you out with a Boris bike ain’t they?!
lol that's the name of the bank next to my house.
congrats on the new sponsorship! well if its the biggest brand its gotta be Giant innit? as for the sickest team, Scott, perhaps?
or Canyon🤔
@@Dwyane1st my guess was canyon or even commencal
@@nathanbray7864 of course how can i have forgotten about commencal
Respect My friend you keep going and you give me motivation to always keep riding
congratulations on the new sponsor can't wait for the revival
I reckon he’ll move to Marin, the Matt Jones Sam Pilgrims collabs!
Congratulations Sam living the dream 🎉
his new sponsor will be absolute death~
@@pookienumnums 🤣
I’ve got my Haibike after watching your channel, it gave me confidence in the brand! Looking forward to what is next!
I’d love to see you riding Transition but my guess would be Canyon or Marin. Happy new year guys. See you in the next one 👊
i am thinking possibly Santa cruz,Trek or Canyon unlikely to be giant or specialized as specialized are rather weird when it comes to sponsors giant somewhat similar with giant
Santa Cruz? Rocky Mountain? So stoked for the 4th!
so exited to see you riding for team Walmart!
Canyon? Stoked to see where you end up Sam, they would all be lucky to have you aboard! Cheers from Canada, Eh \m/
Very few of us had the right guess
Commencal has been making a freeride push! that could be interesting...
Definitely going to be Marin so Sam can have a go at the playground 🤣
Great vid as usual Sam, always good to see lewi fetting in on the action, my guess for 2023 bike sponser is Whyte bikes.
Sam really shined a light on ebikes and even showed everyone how a unknown brand like haibike is durable and things of that nature.
I'm excited about the new beginning
I Hope he is gona be with Ns bikes like the old times
I think it might be
Could be 🤷♂️
Congratulations on joining team ........ Merry Christmas and Happy New year! 🍻
what team?
@@TheDuke4100 TEAM - "nobody cares"
Aslong as the videos are being good... Who gives a shizzle...
So pumped for the new Sponsor!!!
Excellent send off to Haibike, nice to see some genuine, sincere appreciation for a brand that have supported you for the last 5 years 💪👍
Next brand Santa Cruz..... I recon some session videos with Danny Mac perhaps??
Finally we might see Sam on a nice looking bike for a change
What's funny is the new Haibikes look great.
Bet you hibike Chinese tourist customer-base got scared by Pilgrims ride style, had to let em go because of it
What have you got against neon yellow forks?!! :D
It's just sad we don't see him on ghosts again. They look and ride really good.
@@dabigbadwolf5081 meh. So many better brands compared to ghost and haibike considering how big of channel sams is
first guess for the new sponser is Trek. Haibike auction?😁
Good man Sam. Always entertaining to watch your videos man! 🤙🏻 FairPlay to Haibike. They looked after you well.
I’m gonna say Santa Cruz for the new sponsor. Makes total sense!! 😎
Except that he mentioned in the video that it's one of if not the biggest bike brand in the world. So no Santa Cruz.
Hoping the new sponsor is sick! Superb end-sponsorship video Sam! 🤟
I don't care what brand it is. I'm just looking forward to watching Sam build them with all his fancy tools 😍
But my guess is Santa Cruz, even though it's probably Trek
I also can't help but feel there will be some sort of comical plot twist...
Canyon also makes pretty nice Bikes so maby its them, but anyways i am so hyped for next year
He said one of, if not the biggest brand and I immediately thought of GT. Santa Cruz and Trek are great guesses though, along with Specialized.
yup i was thinking Santa Cruz too
@@dvs620 it’s absolutely not GT
@@dvs620 a buddy of mine mentioned Giant, which I think could have a good chance too. They’re massive, but not generally what people dropping big bucks on mountain bikes go for. I rarely see Giant’s top end bikes on the trail (I could be wrong here, this is just from my own observations). They could be working to change that through Sam.
