      Yes, the huge market for dual slalom bikes that are totally not modified so much that they hardly resemble the original bike anymore.

    • @rolux4853
      @rolux4853 Před 3 lety

      My first ever mountainbike was a Dual Slalom Hardtail in the mid 2000s!
      Super rigid aluminum frame, 8 or 9 speed with very narrow gears, the first ever rock shox Pike with U-Turn, avid DH brakes with a 203mm rotor up front, a big fat bashguard and chainguide that weighted about 4kg alone, fat DH tires and of course 26“ wheels!
      Nobody thought about riding a fully at the dual slalom back then.
      In fact a few years on from 2005, nobody thought about dual slalom at all anymore..
      Great to see it back and even get media coverage!

      I don't think any reasonable person buys a bike specifically for dual slalom, they're only riding full suspension bikes because they're better for racing
