Love it”in relation” seems to be your new favourite saying

[@BenDeakinMTB]

I like to mix it up, OiOi, in relation, Roll it, and I've got your axle! 😂

Ben you are a god maybe make a vid of your stolen dh bike

[@jamesdavies3676]

This video was pretty good “in relation” to others

Love the Lord and saviour Dave Jenvey reference mate

[@kenevil4206]

Nice one Deaks, keep them coming my kids love your vids as much as I do so in these times where there off school having you guys still producing content is awesome. Like the “one horse pony” saying. I always had it down as “one trick pony” 😜

[@BenDeakinMTB]

hahahahaha I thought that when I was editing, What a load of 💩 that comes out of my mouth when im riding!

[@PlanetMety]

Lockdown here in Italy. Can't ride. Your vid helps take some pain away. Lol...oi oi

[@si6thnova238]

Locked down in NYC you make the days go by with exceptional content keep sending it mate 🤟🏻

[@richardparsons7012]

In relation to other youtube content, that was rad.

[@lesgetsohb9927]

Nice ridin BEN make it look easy “in relation” to the way I ride

[@adamski5977]

Mate in times like this we need people like you doing vids like this keep up the good work, it helps my sanity as I can't ride as I screwed my shoulder up a few weeks ago🤪👍👍.

[@BenDeakinMTB]

Thanks bro 🙏

[@crateinvader8572]

It's gonna be a moist one but we'll do a couple of gaps and see how the big rig holds up 🤔

[@gavindiamond9054]

More vids like this would be great. Y2K is one I'd like to see you do. And other places. Is the slab drop now known as the Dave Jenvey drop? Oh yeah, get some waterproof socks. They help!

[@elisderwas85]

Your a hell of a rider in relation to me

[@lloydelston4400]

This got me a little excited to ride there again.... when it dries out.

[@Ed-li1xg]

Top advice Ben respect!!.

[@kareemmahfouz5545]

That thing is some rig! Definitely suits you better than Downhill Bill! 🤣 looked fast over that gnarly stuff too. Great vid.

[@BenDeakinMTB]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@billmahfouz19]

Don't be hasty now. It felt kinda good to me! Bonded in the car park did the DH rig and me 😉

Hey. Nice video. Is that a PIVOT Phoenix under those graphics?

[@BenDeakinMTB]

Yes mate

[@dazmos_65]

Brilliant vid mate. Enjoyed your insights, perspective on riding a dh rig and the bike looks mint.

[@stevek3114]

good vid 👍🏻 would be interesting to see if you think the bigger wheels will still be faster on smaller uk tracks like fod or wether the 27.5 will be quicker on tighter tracks . I could see the 29 being better at tracks like Bala and rheola and motorway tracks and obv World Cup stuff tho

[@isaacmtb14gaskill_dunn62]

Ben deakin looking crazy quick on the dh bike

[@Titot182]

I always now refer to the start of Ski Run "Deakin's Stop" - purely because that's where I photobombed your vlog months ago when you were out and about (there was a kiddy's enduro event on at the same time". It's quite poppy up there now because of the rain washing out the topsoil and exposing the roots. It's interesting your feedback on a big rig DH "in relation" to your DMR Sled. I'm like the same comparing Sheepskull and Ski Run when doing back to back runs on a 180mm 29er coild Mega Vs a 160mm 650b Remedy

[@airworksdrones9400]

Nice one deaks! Always good to see a great rider share some tips and info especially for people like me who breaks their wrist couple weeks ago at Rogate! Love the Dave Jenvey reference. What about a coaching session with him and put on here!? Can you imagine you helping him overcome GBU after a few coaching sessions from you! That would be such a great thing especially to cheer us lot up in these times. Love your content lad keep it up!

[@BenDeakinMTB]

Mate ive tried to reach out, Id love too!

[@airworksdrones9400]

Now I think about it I’m sure he is doing “a dog’s life” episode 3 with Bren. Maybe you are too late to a collaboration video! 😜 oh well lad you win some and lose some

What gears are you running Ben? What's up front and rear, shifters? T.I.A.

[@LKnight32]

Good video “in relation”

[@vonpupees]

how come stick to the trail centre trails? would have thought some of the trails a little further down would be a better test

[@BenDeakinMTB]

That's true but I didn't have long and knew the main lines wouldn't of changed with logs across them etc,

[@Noob2Gnarly]

Would love to take a turbo kenevo there on a week day 👌

[@dazeccles]

Think i saw you at Triscombe today

[@olivert.7192]

You should came to Serbia to ride bike park Tornik on Zlatibor mountain

[@Twentykixx]

It’s crazy how you say it’s slick, but somehow it doesn’t come across mate. Must be the bike? Or maybe the rider? Ehh, must be both then! You’ll get the Whistler experience on that beauty later this year hopefully. Awesome vid as usual :D!

[@BenDeakinMTB]

Unfortunately with those conditions you can't really see it properly on the GoPro,

I’ll coach you, 💰

[@dazzaman6704]

Legend!

[@euancook2060]

Loving the vids at fod, I go there a lot but I'm not to sure how exactly I get to the start of the trail, any chance you could do a video of Down by the car park until right to the top where the table tops are? Or maybe a vid on Instagram 🤙#oioi

[@BenDeakinMTB]

You can't really go wrong to be honest, Just carry on going up the push up fire road until you reach the top!

[@callumyoung7785]

Follow the orange signs from the visitor center it will take you there

[@nathangaffran]

It’d be cool to see a race between your trail bike and dh bike

[@BenDeakinMTB]

Doesn’t look like that’s happening in a while😳

[@Alan-75]

Would have been nice to see you try launch pad on the downhill bike. Not hard but it's fun.

I will go back soon on my trail bike, But went and did it a few years ago here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/i2Lcln-KnchrjpI
