This track is just up the road from me, I’m all for having fun on bikes but in the correct location, bmx tracks are for bmx’s not high powerd Emtb’s , I know the guys who volunteer here to upkeep the track and they would definitely not be happy to see this as I wouldn’t on my home track.
I’ve been riding an e-bike mtb with a battery in a backpack for some time now and this is the first video I’ve seen of someone else doing it! I’m surprised more people aren’t doing it but maybe now it will be more of a thing in the mtb world 🙌🏻
Sam, I am pretty sure umping is mostly slower on BMX tracks. Depending on the jump. Unless your really race the jump and pump out of the landing. But if its a big table. you probably gain more speed if you don't try to jump it and take a pedal while on top. I think anyway I Might be wrong and get roasted in replies lol
You should do some videos testing out and learning to ride other personal electric vehicles. Its not that it hasn't been done, but would love to see a pro mtbs actual opinion on some of these awesome vehicles. If you do just bike type vehicles its endless razors, surrons, talaria and so many weird ones too. Same for scooters. The one with a harder learning curve would be electric unicycle but I promise you won't regret learning to ride one. Especially next time you hurt your wrist and can't ride for months. I think it would bring a ton of new viewers to your channel from other types of riding. As a heads up I don't even mtb I just ride euc and hit jumps on that and trail ride but love your content and want a mtb from riding my euc.
That was so fun and genuinely interesting to watch. Made me think. Imagine a new sport. 4 cross, but on a track built similar to a bmx track, but connected for laps. Add 4 surrons and support from Monster for a "series."
@driten123 Yeah... over 30 years of MX/SX for me. You could say I'm well acquainted with SX and Arena Cross lol. What I commented, it's not the same. Not even close. That's the thing with the Surron and its class 3 status. It's not MX/SX worthy, nor is it mtb or emtb. Thus, the idea of its own sport, tracks, and series. Hopefully influencing the production of tracks SX/MX and, maybe, trail centers.
Sam, you really need to ask permission before you start taking powerful electric bikes on bmx tracks. They are private property and run by volunteers. Many have to be fenced off because idiots do things like this and damage them- they don't fence this one off to try and encourage riding. I'm pretty sure you know you shouldn't be doing this if rc cars are banned. Now every goon on a stolen uber eats bike is going to be ripping the shit out of their nearest track in whatever weather. I look after a track in Norway, and all of us out here are constantly having to fix damage from selfish people who use something inappropriately. You need to apologise to the club.
That would be epic! Long way though and I think he would just smash me into oblivion on a BMX track 😂 we have had some good speed and style battles over the years though! What ya recon @barrynobles95?
Hate to sh*t on all the fun, but I can't imagine there's not a rule against motorized vehicles on the BMX track and all I can think of is all the non riders in power who don't know the difference between a class 1 E-bike and a Suron (which you are closer to riding here), banning Eebs from everything because of shenanigans like this, as well as it inspiring others to do the same.
I understand what you’re trying to say but considering my pedal bike was faster round a lap I don’t see how it wrecked anything. Believe me I’ve had motocross bike wrecking jumps and tracks I’ve built my whole life so that’s definitely not what I’m trying to do. It’s a mountain bike with electric assist not a motocross bike or suron
You need to race team GB bmx after the Olympics,that would be good to see
now we need a motor on a dirt jumper
😁😁
Pilgrim has the fan on his back setup vs. Reynolds on his own design electric down hill bike. I would almost fly to England to see that.
That would be the best day ever
you should collab with sam pilgrim and matt jones to race
Was waiting for this🔥

Finally.... You don't need to do steroids to win a BMX race
So much easier 😂
I was competitive up to 12 yrs old. 😂
Blake Samson raced a bmx there I’m sure he would be up for the challenge 🤙🏻

Maybe, it is pretty awesome!
It is a moped, most people prefer the pedal assist type.
Love both bikes just need an asi controller and a bigger battery and that bike will be too good. You need to make a track
U and Matt jones with your E bikes
Would be good!
@@SamReynolds26 no way U replied to me like wtf
You earned a good snack for that! Need to see what you like on a bmx round the track.
Why not give any credit on the e-motor brand. It's a Paradox Kinetics motor made in Greece🇬🇷🙏🏼for anyone wondering. Thanks.
You need to take the Buzz to Darkfest.
Could do so many laps 😂😂
Would love to see a video on that DH ebike on a trail and DH track.
You gotta take this round matts motor cross track!
Nice one Sam ,im sure i have seeen right hand twist grip throttles for pedal-elecs on german amazon and german ebay ......
Why don't you mention that it is from the greek company paradox kinetics?????
Buzz is fuggin dopeeee!!!!!!! :)
It’s the best!

No i think you’re right! Shortest line possible and more pump? But jumps are certainly more fun!
@@SamReynolds26 100%

Moped, a downhill moped it is
It kinda is yeab

its called supercross... look it up :)

You could build some insane suron tracks! I think there will be soon in the future

Don’t take CZcams too seriously
@@Trailtested What a stupid comment. Wreck stuff in the real world for everyone else to get some views on CZcams, but don't take CZcams too seriously.
The skills are there, you just need to spend a couple of years in the gym 😜
Haha yeah… 🤔 that’s the bit I’m not so keen on
I could beat you in a race i'd reccon! 😂
Haha I think you might be right!
Take a look at Hayes Hawks BMX race track, I'm sure you would enjoy sending that on the eebz, 🔥🔥🔥
7th
Great vid sam. Good to see your romantic side too!! 💌
Sammy no balls hahahha
You are ruining these tracks for everyone else riding your electric bike on them!
After all of these years watching the videos… I thought I was subscribed 😮
Somehow, I was not!
Welcome aboard! Thanks man 🙌🏼
You should get together with @barrynobles95 on some local MTB trails here in Alabama along with some BMX crossover stuff.
That would be epic! Long way though and I think he would just smash me into oblivion on a BMX track 😂 we have had some good speed and style battles over the years though! What ya recon @barrynobles95?

im dissapointed, electric bikes wreck the track and the club that rides there usually has to fix it themselves
Whut
He definitely didn’t wreck nothing, he rode a bike on a bike track 🤷🏼♂️
Cringe comment 🤦♂️ where was the damage point it out…

@@SamReynolds26 On a tarmac track no less. Not like it's a dirt track.
I'd give you that race any day, recon ive easily got u, DM'd you on ig
